The Second Helpings
Verse
Midnight, sauce on the screen
I sent you the recipe, you know what I mean
Chorus
I only called to say the oven's on (Preheat!)
Three layers deep and the feeling's gone (Preheat!)
Bridge
Then the smoke alarm takes the solo
Outro
Three minutes, and I regret all four.
That was a story. The band is made up. The game is not.
Two to eight players, no accounts, no sign-ups. One phone hosts and everyone else joins free with a room code. Each round, everyone answers the same prompt and votes for the best line. Those answers become a title, a sound, verses, a chorus, a bridge and a last line. Then AI music generation turns the words into a track, and it is yours to keep.

WholesomeTwo Hit Wonder is the host app. It is paid, and it comes with starter song credits. Making a song uses one credit. Playing the game never does. An optional Studio Pass tops the credits up every month.
Two Hit Wonder: Join is the guest app. It is free.
The game assembles the lyrics from what the group wrote. The music is made with AI music generation, from those lyrics and the sound the group voted for.
Both apps are in development. No date yet.
