Dear friends,
You can find here a twitpic of the English Nintendo Magazine, with a nice comment:
A screen we’ve taken from Maestro! Jump In Music, our new favourite DS game of the moment.
Honey to our ears 
Dear friends,
It is done!
The game cards are printed, the booklet and cover are approved by Nintendo…
Once BigBen has put all these together in the boxes, the games will be sent in shops!
This brings us to November 6th! You’ll see pink birdies everywhere in your local shops. You can even start pre-ordering if you want ;p
For now, the game will be released in France, Italy, Spain, Belgium and Switzerland.
We’re trying to find distribution solutions for England and maybe Germany. We’ll keep you posted about that. And as soon as the game will be buyable online, we’ll give you a direct link on the Maestro online page.
Youhoooooo!!!
Dear friends,
Maestro! is divided into 6 worlds. EAch of which has unique instruments, specific musical colours, its own graphical touch. EAch world also has its own music and melodies, to make it simple 2 classical tracks, 1 pop hit, and 1 traditionnal tune.
You’ll enjoy ench track 3 times throughout the game, once in Easy mode, in a short and light version (1 minutes, only the pic of the iceberg notes). Once in Normal mode in a full lenght version (3 to 4 minutes) with a wider subset of the original notes. And once in Hard mode, in full lenght also, but this time with all the notes!
Here is the game’s tracklist, looks odd listed down this way? wait and see how goofy it is in the game
The sound track was composed by the talented band: Yubaba Smith & Fortune.
Maestro! Jump in Music received the Milthon for the best sound track at the 2009 Paris Game Festival.
enjoy
Talking about the old days,
Four years age, the actual Pastagames team worked for a mobile phone game editor called Filao Mobile. The mobile game industry was rough and this editor’s strategy unsuited. The company died and wes divided in various bits. Tough times… ah… old scars…
There are a few good things that survived this era; from which a good game, that didn’t get the success it deserved, it was called The Penguin Menace.
Sometimes, sipping on brandy, smoking cigars, our Golden retriever by the fireplace, we remember these days with a hint of nostalgia, and the pleasure we took in making this game. Our trenchcoats hanging, the rain pouring, a tear in our eyes, we long for a warm hug…
Hence our pleasure and satisfaction when we saw that a polish player somehow got a copy of the game and enjoyed it enough to put a video of our darling game on youtube.
Even if this has very little to do with Maestro! I can’t help sharing this video with you guys.
We’d be happy to know what you think of it… 
Here is un on of the coolest articles i have read about Maestro!
Here is a taste of it:
Maestro! Jump in Music was something of an unexpected pleasure for me during this year’s gamescom. It’s easy to become a tad desensitized when you see dozens upon dozens of presentations for three days in a row, but something about this game made me jolt upright and pay attention. It was almost as if someone from Pastagames used a DS to clamp hold of my nipple, and then twisted it round and round until my areola mammae went purple.
We consider this as a great compliment
Cheers Neon
