How does your game fit the theme?
Swan Song is a relaxing puzzle game about building your own music scales. You're grandpa left you with a small magical music box. It's up to you to solve it and reveal its secrets. Puzzle your way through numerous levels by placing notes on the scale and cranking the box. Watch your composition come to life when the box starts playing your musical score which moves & twists the gears & platforms, in order to get your little Goose safely to its nest! You only need your mouse to play: Simply click and drag notes on your scale and crank the crank to start your composition and solve the puzzle!

I wish there was 6 stars in style, this is so beautiful, the music was fitting perfectly.
I think what would be even more immersive for the player, would be to add more musicality in the mecanic sound itself (when the step is played, playing a corresponding note of the scale).
GG guys !

Burger KingdomReally beautiful and cozy puzzle game! Maybe I would have been more engaged in the gameplay if the reaction to my answer was faster, because the few seconds of waiting for the box to start playing was a bit annoying. Also i really like your view of theme!

Cursed KibblesI don't usually like downloading jam games but this one looked really interesting I am definitely impressed with what I recieved. It's very relaxing and soothing gameplay, music and art come together so well, it's impossible to not love. My only critique is the game feels a bit too slow even if it's a relaxing game but tbh it's not really an issue. Love the game, nice work guys!

carDOGrapherGreat game! I love the style and the idea. I got a bug, while i trying to put two notes in one hole, the music box just closed. But the game is still great, i love it!

Machine DefenseBeautiful game! I loved seeing the gears moving below the level and how they weren't just randomly placed, but put where it makes sense for the physicality of the puzzle. The only frustration I had was when trying to move notes that were placed on the board. The required click and drag distance should be halved.

SHAPE CATCHERThe concept is very interesting. Even if you have only four movements it's not easy and immediate to complete the puzzle. You have to think how to place the notes according to the movement of the duck. It's not so obvious when the diffcult is increased with the double notes and new movements of the platform.
The interation at the beggining of the game with the letter is interesting and original. I loved it.
Sometimes there are some bugs. Sometimes it was difficult to catch the notes. It can happen that when the drawer closes the notes fall out and you can't play. You have to exit and reopen the game. This happened to me twice.
The game is very enjoyable! :)
