Fun concept, plays well but also got stuck after the first song in browser

woah its great. but sometime i got stuck and lag when finish the song then refresh browser to start again. 

That’s odd, there should be no reason that’s happening. I’ll take a look but I’m fairly sure that that’s just a lag issue that I can’t fix. Thanks for playing!
