Guided Tour
Main Menu → Help / About → Tutorial is a quick, hands-off tour: click it and Harmonicon automatically walks through every top-level screen — including a few seconds of live play, not just menu captions — before returning you right back to where you started:
Main → Play → Select Mode → a live Play 2D demo → Jam Session Menu → a live Jam Session demo → Generate a Jam → Bending Trainer → Lessons → Song Editor → Options → Theme → Help / About → back to where you started.
- A step counter (“Step 6 of 13”) in the overlay shows your progress through the tour.
- Menu steps switch beneath the overlay exactly as if you’d clicked through them yourself; the live-play steps actually enter that screen for real — the 2D and Jam Session demos briefly play the bundled example song, the Bending Trainer and Song Editor steps show those screens exactly as you’d see them normally. Either way, the overlay blocks clicks on whatever’s behind it — you’re not meant to interact mid-tour, just watch.
- Escape does nothing while the tour is running, on any step — including the live-play ones, where it would otherwise pause the game, back out of the Bending Trainer, or leave the Song Editor. The demo song is long enough that a live-play step never actually finishes on its own; the tour always cuts away first, and nothing from a demo step is ever saved to your profile.
- Click Skip Tutorial at any point — including during a live-play step — to end the tour immediately and return to wherever you started it from, instead of waiting for the remaining steps.
This is meant as a fast first orientation, not a substitute for the rest of this book — it covers what each screen is (and, for the live-play steps, a glimpse of what it actually looks like in motion), not how to use it in depth. For that, see the dedicated chapter for whichever screen you want to know more about (linked from The Main Menu).
