Ask HN: Tools or frameworks to build music theory games
It's not really a framework, but I've been having a lot of fun live coding music in Sonic Pi: https://sonic-pi.net/
It has built-in functions for chords and scales and is pretty easy to make catchy loops.

Not specifically game related, but adjacent. Sonic Pi (https://sonic-pi.net/) is designed for making music specifically with kids in mind, and they might accidentally learn a whole bunch of programming concepts as a side-effect.
