## Music and sound references

Original Tiny Chao Garden music and sound sequences were obtained from the **SAT-R/sa2** decompilation project's [Tiny Chao Garden MIDI directory](https://github.com/SAT-R/sa2/tree/main/chao_garden/sound/songs/midi). The [song constants](https://github.com/SAT-R/sa2/blob/main/chao_garden/include/constants/songs.h) identify the garden theme, minigame theme, hatching, confirmation, gauge, snoring, and trumpet sequences. The browser audio implementation synthesizes its playback.
