How does the game fit the theme?
The purpose is to play a given melody by platforming, without a single wrong note (nothing can go wrong)

Some backgrounds are free wallpapers that I didn't draw myself and I used a triangulator script that I made for another project

Yep, Original concept, but a bit too had gameplay. 

Developer

Thank you for playing :) 
It seems the diffculty needs indeed some smoothing

Submitted

Very original idea, good job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks ! :)

Submitted

very creative concept of merging platformers and music gameplay elements! great work!

Developer

Thank you for playing and for your feedback :)

Submitted

That was a very nice game! I like when people blend different genres like platforming, music, and memorization and I had a great time playing it. I would definitely love to try out more levels in the future!

Developer

Thanks for playing and for your feedback !
I might improve on it and add levels later, as it's still very raw given the little time I was able to spare for this jam :)

Very nice game

Developer

Thank you ! :)

Really good innovation! Took a bit to learn that sliding was a note progression. 

Feedback

-Moving left to right also changes the sound bar. Sometimes it got hard to hear. 

-Sliding should have a nicer indicator. 

Overall I enjoyed this game! For your first game jam, you really nailed the theme and thinking outside the box. I look forward to your future work in jams and games as a whole!

Thanks a lot for playing and for your constructive feedback :)

Really cool concept, the controls were a bit difficult to get by, but when finished the first level it felt great, I think the note should maybe be more different I think, I am a non-musician so I really struggled with that, lovely game!

Developer

Thank you for playing and for your feedback :)

The game concept is good, but I had too hard of a time figuring out the ground pound and couldn't get very far

Developer

Thank you for playing :)
Yes, there's an help in the game menu showing the inputs to ground-dash, but I forget to showcase the need to be above ground to do so, my bad :(

Submitted

Cool game

Developer

Thanks for playing !

Submitted

That is a very original idea. But the level was a bit hard, I would say. It felt more like a level 10 or 12 :D and not like level 1

I enjoyed it very much, nonetheless. Thank you for the game!

The challenge of the first level is indeed a reoccuring comment, I guess it need some smoothing of the difficulty curve ^^'

Submitted

heyy another music based game! VERY cool ideia really. its pretty fun to mess around on those levels, also kinda hard but on the right amount

Developer

Thanks for playing and for your feedback :)

Had a blast after getting use to each level. Playing music by parkouring was awesome experience. It is nothing big but you can add a limit to pressing "r" button at a time (It can be triggered too many times at once). Great job!

Developer

Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it !  :)

Thx for the feedback, I had'nt thought of that ;)

Interesting idea and mechanics.

Would love to see more content, since I don't think it would take you long to add.

Fun game, the particles were cute, the idea is great, maybe the dificulty was a little too hard on the first couple levels, easier first levels could help the player get confortable with the controls and the mechanincs

Cool game! I really enjoy platformers, and this one had a good twist.

Developer

Thanks a lot ! :)

Submitted

Very cool concept, took me a minute to figure out what i was supposed to do, but the platforming was maybe a bit too punishing

Developer

Thanks for playing and for your feedback ;)

Submitted

Interestring idea, it was fun but I did not get how to make the last note on first level

Developer

Thank you for playing :)
Yes, there's an help in the game menu showing the inputs to ground-dash, but I forget to showcase the need to be above ground to do so, my bad :(

Cool game with a cool concept! :D

It would be cool if game had a tutorial, showcasing different actions you can do to play music.

Developer

Thank you for playing and for your feedback :)

Submitted

this was actually really challenging, but I had a lot of fun trying to nail the jumps/timing!

Developer

Thank you for playing :)
