Prompt
Create a complete 60-second chiptune song using JavaScript. The song should have a clear structure: intro (8 bars), main melody (16 bars), bridge (8 bars), and outro (8 bars). Use square waves, triangle waves, and noise for drums. The melody should be catchy and energetic, like something from an 8-bit video game. Include a bass line and simple percussion.
A system prompt was added to support web rendering
Here is a complete, self-contained HTML file that generates a 60-second chiptune song using the Web Audio API. The song features a square wave lead, a triangle wave bass, and noise-based percussion, following the requested intro-main-bridge-outro structure.
Just save this code as an `.html` file and open it in a modern web browser. Click the "Play Song" button to start the music.

This creates a complete 60-second chiptune song with all the requested features:
**Song Structure:**
- **Intro (8 bars):** Simple ascending melody to set the mood
- **Main Melody (16 bars):** Energetic, catchy melody that repeats with variations
- **Bridge (8 bars):** Different chord progression and melody for contrast
- **Outro (8 bars):** Descending melody that brings closure
**Sound Elements:**
- **Square waves** for the main melody (classic chiptune lead sound)
- **Triangle waves** for the bass line (warm, rounded bass)
- **Noise-based drums** with kick and snare patterns
- **140 BPM** tempo for an energetic feel
**Visual Features:**
- Real-time progress bar
- Section indicators showing current part of the song
- Animated equalizer-style visualizer
- Retro 8-bit styling with green/yellow color scheme
The song follows classic video game music patterns with memorable melodies and a driving rhythm that would fit perfectly in an 8-bit adventure game!```html

This code will generate a complete 60-second chiptune song with a clear structure: intro (8 bars), main melody (16 bars), bridge (8 bars), and outro (8 bars). The melody is catchy and energetic, like something from an 8-bit video game. The song uses square waves, triangle waves, and noise for drums, and includes a bass line and simple percussion.
**Note**: You may need to adjust your browser's audio settings to hear the music clearly. The music may not play properly in some browsers due to their audio policies.
**Also Note**: Creating music using Web Audio API can be quite complex and usually requires some form of scheduling system for note playback, especially for longer and more complex compositions. For simplicity, this code directly schedules note playback. In real-world applications, consider using libraries like Tone.js to simplify audio development.
No library has been used here to keep it simple and demonstrate basic concept of creating chiptune music using Web Audio API.```html
