For those of you who somehow didn’t find 2048 distracting enough, here’s an infinite version where you build up notes along the circle of fifths. It plays the notes as you match them, which is strangely soothing and hypnotic, even when it’s somewhat discordant. The infinity is handled by simply trying to get as many cycles around the circle as you can.

A warning: new tiles are only generated from within the five notes prior to the highest note you have on the board. This means that when you open up a new note, any notes you have from the “oldest” note you still have on the board can easily be stranded: no new tiles will show up which match them. This definitely adds some challenge.
