Here’s Trombone Champ Being Played With a Custom Trombone Controller

ign.com:

Gaming Twitter belongs to Trombone Champ right now, with tons of videos floating around of people trying (and usually hilariously failing) to play the wacky rhythm game.

If you haven't heard of it, Trombone Champ is a new PC game where you play classical tunes on the trombone, using your mouse or controller to adjust the pitch of the note your Mii-like avatar is playing. If you're even the slightest bit off with your note placement, the note will sound either sharp or flat, just like a real trombone. Unlike other rhythm games that only expect you to hit five buttons to sound like a rockstar, Trombone Champ's hilarity comes from its extreme requirements of precision.

Now, as these things usually tend to go, some folks are coming up with new controller methods to play the game. On Twitter, Rudeism has made Trombone Champ playable with an actual trombone. In the video below, you can watch as Rudeism plays Trombone Champ with a plastic trombone, where an ultrasonic sensor controls the slide, and a microphone controls the dooting.
