This game was entertaining! I really enjoyed the concept.

If you ever expand on this, maybe you could include more of the debates in the dialogue.

Overall, it was a lot of fun. Good job!

Amazing music and art! I had a blast playing through it! I had some issues with retrying the last level cause sometimes it would load instantly and sometimes it would take like a min to reload. All in all awesome work. Easily one of my fav games in the jam.

I enjoyed so much playing it, seeing some people have trouble with rhythm games are quite funny, you did incredible job!

Got hit with a lot of 'L takes' ...I’m not the best at rhythm games!

I think implementing input buffering could help ease players in. Great experience overall though!

Developer(+1)

thanks for playing and giving feedback! timing of notes isn't right in my code, and i made it pretty hard for non-rhythm game players.. updated version could have a selectable difficulty 👉👈

It was a distinct and refreshing entry, you did great!

My favourite experience in the jam thus far!! 🤩💖✨💫

Aside from failing the tutorial (cause my dumbass thought I was playing as the monkey at the start) and losing to Joey and Garnt by 83% (but I beat them again with the same score??? Unless I was tripping and it was actually 73%), I beat everything in one go! Let's goooooo!! 🥳🎉

That Ironmouse battle took YEARS off my life tho! 😅🫠

Phenomenal game! Absolutely adore everything about it!! 🥰🫶🏽

thank you so much for playing and giving feedback! i'm so so happy you liked it! ❤️ and thanks for sharing the ending screen as well!

if i would have had time to playtest with real people, i'd seen it right away that most people confuse this setup that you have to play as both characters.. in my next update i'll make it clear that you just play for Connor..

Submitted(+1)

Really fun with a great vibe and art. Reminded me of Scott Pilgrim in some ways. Some great soundbites. On the first song I got all correct right up until the end, so to then hear Connor curse because of a failed input right at the end of the song was an unexpected comedy highlight for me!

Developer(+1)

hahhah that's actually so funny to hear, i forgor i left that cursing bit in 💀 thanks so much for playing and giving feedback!

W Game, Very Great artstyle and music and to make that in 2 days very impressive,  also i like that its a bit challenging at the last fight so u replay more. Great job! 😃

oh hey this style is sweet! the idea of "trashiest take" as a rhythm game spoofing on connor arguing with his friends is a fun concept!! i think you don't need to specify (tutorial) with the first monkey, players can probably intuit that themselves if it succeeds in easing the player into the mechanics. there were points where the music lined up with the beats but for the most part, i felt the sound effects were kinda lacking and not meshing well with the rest of the game which is a shame because i think sound effects is a big part of what sells this type of thing. still solid i think and a fun concept.

This game is among the best ones I have played so far this jam yet for sure! Really like the different theming on a rhythm game.

I like all the tracks, but felt like the first and the second one was best. Like some others have said, felt like the buttons is a bit desynced at times, but I was still able to beat the final level on my second try 😆. Would have love to see a sound effects on the key press as well, not just a visual effect.

Another small detail I would have loved to see was the background text being actual meaningful sentences being said, make it like an actual debate and not just some random filler words. I realize it may have been unrealistic to ask for everything in short jam game, but it's just something I would like to see if you decide to give it a post-jam update.

Anyway this was a super solid entry. Great job!

Very pretty art, also finally get to play a fnf style game that doesn't make me feel like I am old and my fingers no longer work! Feels so good to actually get some perfect notes in, instead of finding out that I can't press the buttons as fast as the game expects me to (looking at you Toby Fox -,-)

Cute game! Very enjoyable

Developer

thanks so much for playing and giving feedback! i'm so happy you enjoyed the game ;w;

loved it all, except for when i had to wait a minute every time i failed the ironmouse debate, lol. but otherwise it's real fun!

Developer(+1)

thanks for playing and giving feedback! also very sorry about the ironmouse battle being bugged 😭

Submitted(+1)

lol right? i left to a separate tab to write the rest of my comment each time and at some point when i came back i'd apparently won even though it seemed like my worst performance.... well idk what happened there but maybe a little amusing if you think of it as silent treatment between mouse and connor.

Loved the sprites, especially for Joey Garnt and Chris!

Some of the earlier music threw me off a bit because I wanted to press the keys in rhythm, but the prompts weren't quite in sync with the music. But still fun with the soundboards!

Loved the humorous debate topics

Developer

thanks so much for playing and giving feedback! unfortunately i didnt get keys synced properly in time..

really fun and simple, at first i was unaware that i was playing both connor and monke lol, but after that i realized and had a blast wating a some time playing, awesome art and nice sound design, smart to use actual soundbytes 

Submitted(+1)

Really interesting idea! I can't believe i lost an argument against a monke! Nice job :D

Submitted(+1)

Pretty good game with cute art and very polished! The game is good, sadly I'm bad at it (rhythm games are hard for me :c), but I had a lot of fun. Good job!
