- Fun game, very difficult with trying to get everything in a rhythm for me. Looks great and music is awesome.

Awesome game everything was so great! I beat it on the 2nd try thanks to the heal, hope you'll add this air attack that you mentioned on another comment, I want to see more!

Twofold BoundsI really liked this game! I was a huge fan of Crypt of the Necrodancer (and am a musician) so anything that incorporates rhythm into the game is always a lot of fun. I wasn't able to beat the boss, but since I sucked at another rhythm game that incorporated the mouse I'll just chalk it up to being left handed and that hand being more used to having to be "on time" when playing guitar/bass.
Great work! Wonderful art, great ideas, and kudos for making a song/sfx that doesn't really ever appear to get grating no matter how often I heard it (I died a lot). Writing looping music like that is tough.

Power CreepI always love a good action rhythm game! The beat is quick to pick up and the controls are simple enough so that the player can keep track of their movements and attacks. The tutorial is quick and smooth to get through. I really appreciated that the player can quantitatively see their timing and misses for each input in the top right corner of the UI. It was fun to play, the boss was challenging, after 4 tries i wasnt able to beat it, but definitely the next attempt.. just one more. Good job!
Great job!
we also did a rhythm game (NECROBEATS)
And mixing it with rpg and other stuff we had a very hard work!
So congratulations! rhythm games have their complexity.
Beautiful game art, and music too!

Necro BeatsWow, excellent! Took me a couple of tries, but super fun bossfight.
The music was just great, gets you in a groove of perfectly dodging the attacks and attacking yourself. It's cool that the boss has some timings where you can sneak in a couple charged hits, evokes some Elden Ring feelings.
Really nice work.
Edit: maybe one thing I'd wish for is to be able to attack mid-air, that'd be cool. Maybe you can and I just sucked at timing it? :D

Rest in Pieceshah yeah I was considering adding an air attack and there was actually meant to be one
but due to time constraints of both my animator and I, we just kinda thought it a wasnt necessary addition for the 10 day window. if we do take this game further past this game jam its definitely on our to do list tho :)
Man this is awesome!. I realy enjoy playing this game and after some tries y done it!.
We made a rhyhm game too , and i can apreciate the excelent work of beat sync and boss patron development.
pd: im bad at english.

Necro BeatsNice little boss fight with a Crypt of the NecroDancer/HiFi Rush style gameplay mechanic. Nice touch of having your attacks be music to go with the bg music. Glad the game got a tutorial or I would be demon food. I like the colors for the pixel art and animation. I wish that you can attack while jumping in the air against the giant demon boss. I couldn't distinguish the 1 boss attack you need to jump off the floor and the 1 you have to dodge the floor needles. It was short but it was sweet. I like the decisions you made for your game. I wish you guys would make a whole game out of it.

Damn you nailed the art style!
I really loved the idea of a rhythm based 2d plataformer and just thinking about this being a metroidvania sounds increadible.
Very addictive and fun!
Looking forward to post jam polishing!
