What inspired your game?
Our team's love for music, rhythm games, and magical girls
How did you incorporate the 'girly' theme into your game?
Our game features not only a visual aesthetic of 'girly' games that are colorful and whimsical, but also features our female protagonist seeking to save her companion and fellow magical girl. Our game is meant to touch upon the value of friendship, harmony, and how opposites attract as our dynamic duo differ in visuals and personality.

can't get over the visuals and the music is sick as hell too. in dire need of user feedback though - both in terms of a progress bar and hitting the notes (accuracy + overall score) - i had no clue if i was doing anything correctly until, eventually, it ended.
super excited to see where this goes! :)
I definitely vibed to the soundtrack!!! The minions are so cute, i love how cute and sparkly everything is!
Super cute and fun!! Desperately needs some visual feedback though. There is no indicator that I timed things right (no "Good!" or "Perfect!" etc.) which makes it feel a little un-interactive. But the idea and the art style are stellar.
I love all of the character art, y'all absolutely nailed the visuals! And the fact you made such a great song under jam pressure is seriously impressive.
Thank you for playing our game! We have created some updates for after the jam's voting period ends like a hit/miss indicator and are hoping to add more songs soon too! :D
The art was really nice and the game looked good with 4 different notes/poses you could hit. If you update this game in the future I'd suggest adding a hit/miss indicator of some kind. I was hitting the ↓ purple note instead of the ← light purple note for a while before I realized they were different. Nice work!
Thank you for playing! We've added a hit/miss indicator to update after the jam's voting ends and are planning to work on improving the gameplay some more. :)
i love the art and that it's a rythm game, for a game that was made in 4 days this is pretty cool !
Awww thank you! I'm glad you liked the game! <3
I find the rhythm aspect to be kinda weird and not that responsive. I never worked on a rhythm game, so is probably really hard to make it right, but I played a lot of rhythm games and I think is a good attempt. Music is good, art is good, I would love to have some SFX to know if the note is right or wrong. besides that, is good.
Thank you for giving our game a try! Working on a rhythm game was surprisingly more complicated than we expected but we've been working on improving the gameplay and adding additional SFX for after the voting period.
Took me a second to ground myself and figure out what to do, but this was a lot of fun, especially when the song started to pick up halfway through. This is such a great foundation for a game that can be further developed. Adding some feedback sound effects for landing (or missing) keys would provide so much juice too!!
Nice job!!!!
Thank you for playing and I'm glad you had fun!! We're currently working on improving the gameplay and planning to develop the project further after the voting period wraps up!
Awesome to hear. I'll be sure to follow its progress.
I think the art direction is super charming and design for the minions is adorable! Definitely think the notes could use some more visual distinction since the mechanics involve arrow keys! If there's future development of this, I'll be following it! I'm a sucker for rhythm games
Thank you for giving our a game try! We're planning to develop the game further and improve the mechanics and gameplay feedback for sure!!
"Score: C" :( LOL
The music player in the bottom left is really cute, I hadn't realized they were actually jumping and pointing in the direction of the key you pressed! I do think the game could be improved with more visual hint for directionality -- maybe the little monsters are oriented in the direction of the arrow? Great game, and great music!
Thank you for playing our game and for your feedback! We're currently working on improving our gameplay so it's much appreciated!!
Beautiful, but I'd be lying if I knew what I was doing - I was just breakdancing on the rhythm of the song!
Thanks for playing! Haha, sometimes you just gotta groove :D
The Game is Beautiful!
Aw thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed our game!
love the art stylee!! ngl at first I thought its a up and down game without looking at instructions then I figured out there are 4 directions for the game lol it's definitely more fun after that :P
Aw thank you for playing! I know the instructions are a smidge silly but I hope you had fun :)
Really nice style and audio, looks nice! But it's way too hard to figure out what buttons do what. I could not get the hang of it as I had to look up to see which arrow key was which icon. Well developed game though!
Thank you giving our game a try and thank you so much for the feedback! We're working on improving the gameplay for after the voting period ends, so we'll try to make the instructions clearer in our next update!
Very beautiful art style, I love it! ! Unfortunately, blue and purple are too close to each other to be easily discernable. Could that be intentional? Want to add real-time feedback like "good" and "amazing". But now it's pretty good❤
Thank you for giving our game a try! I think we'll see if we can adjust the colors in the next QOL update since we've been working on improving things for after the voting period. We've got some feedback working so I hope it'll be more fun to play as we continue working on this project!
Really, really nice and cohesive visuals. Loved the particle effects and attention to detail :).
Aw thank you so much!! :) <3
This is the most visually stunning game I've played in the jam so far! In terms of aesthetics, I think it'll be tough for any game to beat this one :O
I wish the gameplay were as polished as the art and the music. It's disorienting to play a rhythm game where you have to look at the top to see what buttons to press. There's also no audio/visual feedback on whether you're missing notes—and half of the notes don't seem to be synced to the music.
It's so close to being incredible—for four days I'm impressed!
Aw gosh, thank you so much! Creating the rhythm-based gameplay mechanic was definitely trickier than we anticipated but we've been tinkering with making improvements for after the voting period ends, so I hope it'll be more fun to play next time!! :)
I'll definitely check it out after the voting then :D
really fun to play and i LOVED the bgm and art <3
Aw thank you so much!! <3
oh i'm IN LOVE with these characters designes this game feels like muse dash combined with touhou
Aw gosh, thank you! :)
prolly the best game in the jam no bias
The music is def a bop :0
The animations in this game are just too cute! I know I'm biased as one of the contributing composers, but I think this game has a lot of potential for further development!
The team really knocked it out of the park! I'm looking to working on the project more!! :) <3
