The Crypt of Notation

The Crypt of Notation is an RPG-style game which focuses on the main character, Maalik – the cat guardian of purgatory, who is trying to dispel the evil found in a fictional graveyard by ‘playing funky beats’ and bring peace once again to the afterlife. Players progress through a series of levels by destroying specific objects (crates, pots etc.), defeat enemies and resolve basic puzzles by using their knowledge of reading musical notation. Whilst the source code can be found on GitHub, there were also a handful of handy methods and prefabications which are currently being compiled into an add-on designed for Unity. The add-on will be available on GitHub soon and hopefully on the asset store in the future (for free!)
