This game had a lot of great puzzles that always made me think about what the player should do. The fact that it was tied to a drum loop made it even better, great job!

This was a really cool idea! Great execution on the UI and level design. And fantastic job on the art!

One of the more creative interpretations of "loop" by far. Was very satisfying slowly figuring out the timing of different things for each individual piece of a level before finally having the winning sequence!

Very creative interpretation of 'loop'. A good and challenging puzzle game, and I like each action having its own distinct sound so it sounds great when you get the winning pattern.

Ohhh that's fun. A bit hard but fun

Fun puzzler, but I cant get past Level 6 for the sake of it xD

Still great job, really enjoyed!

Ahahah thank you for trying! Level 6 get tough, you really have to plan ahead. A tip : put full blue beats (it sounds better and is the right speed for this one)

It looks and seems really cool but... the audio isn't working for me! I think it's definitely an issue with my PC, but if you could help me so I can play it it would be great

Developer

Ahh very interesting! Yes I'll try, what system are you using? Does it work when you play on your phone? (the game is responsive)

I'm playing on windows web

Developer

What browser? Do you have any errors in the browser debug console?

An obvious 5 stars on audio. This is so cool though fr, nice work and really satisfying.

Thanks a lot! I used fruity loops' 808 :) I woulld like to expand the game audio so that a cool song plays on the successful level run with your beat

A really creative and cool game, although a possible improvement could be to pause the snails initially because then you have to time the snails as well.

Developer

Thanks a lot! The snail do reset they position when you start, but you are absolutly right it will be easier to just stop them, i'll do that!

Amazing use of the theme, really enjoyed it, didn't know clever puzzles could be made with this idea but really awesome game overall 👌

As a programmer is this my kind of game.

One of my favorite games so far — fun, engaging, and a great way to teach music to people like me!

Actually a fun game. I think the level design could've used a bit of work and there should be one or two tutorial levels when a mechanic is introduced.

Developer

Thank you very much for the feedback! Yes the level design is rough ^^' I agree with you for the tutorial levels for each new mechanis but I feared it would become boring. Maybe if there was a story !
