Great game ! The idea is one of the most creative in this game jam, and the controls are really good, maybe make a tutorial in the future for how the wires connect, I didn't know they automatically align if in a straight line, But overall great submission and such complex mechanics for a game jam. Keep it up🙌

I like this as a base for creating a rhythm. I think you chose a great way to condense a tool to make fairly complex rhythms into only a few factory machines. The way the splitters worked was a bit tough to understand at first, and wire connections also took a bit of time to get used to placing them, but other than that the tools are fairly easy to use. I cannot make music at all and do not have all that much interest in making music, but I imagine this would be even better for people who did know how to make music well. The concept is great, and the execution is about as well as you could have done within the time period we had.

Rogue Oil RacersReally cool concept! I love how simple it is but how much you can do with just a few blocks like these. At one point I could not continue the tutorial though, because I missed what I needed to do and could not go back in the dialog.
I love to see other takes on interpreting the loop concept as a rhythm game, as we also went in that direction with our game :)

Frooty LoopsVery cool concept and good execution. I liked the little robot guys voice lol. I do wish the tutorial was longer as the mechanics are a bit difficult to pick up, but with some time investment this could be like Minecraft note blocks. I'm sure someone could arrange a whole song in this.

Operation LoopholeThis is a cool concept! I liked how the components were designed, but I wish the tutorial was longer. It would be cool to learn how such a system could be used to produce basic songs.

Karmic StaircaseSeriously ingenious idea. It's overall quality is very high, with zero bugs.

Tunnel RunnersWhile I would love to give this game a fair rating, as a guy who struggles putting a bunch of chords together I can't really give it justice. The concept is very cool, the chipboard aesthetic looks very cool, the story is very funny, but there is a distinct lack of *gameplay*. While there's nothing wrong with making a sandbox for musicians, it might've helped wonders to have some sort of puzzle aspect to complement the mechanics, in a sense it is making music but with a goal for people that aren't musically inclined, and might actually help them get inspired as well.
That being said tho, this was a very cool and memorable entry, I imagine it's real gold for those who are big fans of these kind of games.

Plan-EtNice concept, it could easily be turned into a full game, but I thought that the game itself was a little too buggy specifically when it comes to the second tutorial level where the sounds were being made all at once and the wires were not connecting how I would expect them to. The game is a blast either way, though, really fun.

Loop E CarThis is impressive for a gamejam. Its like a grid puzzle DAW haha
Love the ideia, wish there were some objective to add some depth to the game. It is more like a toy for now. But it is a well done toy.
I feel like sometimes the sound would not go through a straight line, and than I had to redraw the line and then it worked. Not sure why.
And if you keep working on the project, maybe some usability features would help, like keys to change between tools, easier way to change the note of the modulator or instrument of the percussion would be nice.
My game is also music related, more a rhythm game, though. You might like it, give it a try! :)
