Looking at the options, it looks like this is supposed to be a two player game -- in which case I think it's a really cool concept! One person is trying to play the beat game, and the other is trying to win bejewled. Cool! I wish I had a friend to play it with, or that there were instructions.

Interesting concept. Don't know if I won or lost, but in the end I transformed into Claves :)
First of all, very cool is see a Pico-8 game here! I couldn't quite figure out the "anti-rhythm" mechanics, but I certainly enjoyed the weirdness :)
This game is the actual antithesis to my submission which I found quite funny. I assumed I had to move items around when "not" on beat based on the directions, but this didn't really seems to impact gameplay that much. I absolutely loved the aesthetic and pixel art!
I wasn't able to use the anti-rhythm mechanic in any noticeable way, however I was able to complete the ritual. I did also enjoy the Pixel Art.
Agree with the other commenter. Hard for me to actually play but looks neat.
Interesting concept. Really hard to grasp. Maybe I'm just old. I like the pixel art.
