Great game! I really liked how the player sprite represented the current health, great job!
Thank you for the comment, the way the player takes damage I took reference from a game called JSAB (actually the game's idea is based on it lol) but thanks for the compliment :)
Really fun game, i'm pretty bad at rythmn games but it was visually really cool. I really liked what you did with the ui for our health and, even if i find it quite hard, the difficulty seems coherent ! Well done '3'
Thanks for the comment, I tried a somewhat "daring" theme idea and it seems to be working! Thank you and good luck to you in this jam :)
I like that the heart beats when you do the dash :D
Having a background beat or heartbeat mechanic like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crypt_of_the_NecroDancer
might be a fun idea if you expand this
Nice to have QOL feature:
Thanks for the comment and the compliment, I'll take a look at the Wikipedia entry you sent :)
Really fun! The bomb level was the hardest of the two (yet my favorite)
Thanks for the comment! And I'm glad you liked my game and that you have a favorite boss! (Mine is too) :D
Really cool concept and nice music! I'm really bad at these types of games though I still really enjoyed playing. Great execution!
Thanks for the comment! :D I'm so glad you liked my game, that makes me very happy :)
Really cool concept and fun gameplay! Only art and feedback (sound or visual indicator when hit) could be improved a bit.
Nice!
Thank you for your comment, and thank you for the feedback as well, it helps me a lot :)
This is really fun! The player movement felt nice and the visuals fit the game well. I wish there was some kind of impact when you get hit.
Besides that, it's a great game!
Thank you for your comment, and I'm glad you liked my game. Thanks also for the suggestion on how I could improve it. :D
I really enjoyed the music and the variety of things you had to dodge. It kept me on edge and the beats were solid. I think it would be nice to add in difficulty scores to the songs since I felt like Electro Case was much harder than Robot Island. So I thought Robot Island should have been the first to appear, kind of like a tutorial. If you are able to add in more songs, then I can see this becoming a solid game!
Thanks for the comment and the tip on what I can improve in my game, thank you :D
WOW, this game is really fun, I really like its concept, it's very well made, and it's exactly the right amount of difficult. Great job!
Very fun game with a high difficulty. Love it when action syncs up with music!
thank you for the comment and thank you for the compliment too :D
Wow this is really fun and unique! Love the music and the challenge, this could be a full game :)
thanks for the comment, maybe in the not too distant future I will think about continuing it :D
Your music is top notch. I had a blast playing it. You do need to fix the starting UI elements though. I had overlapping and misaligned text while in full screen. I also reached the end of The Eye and the game never sent me back to the title menu. Music and traps were finished and I had to refresh the browser to continue playing.
Thank you for the comment, and also thank you for reporting these bugs to me. I will test it again to see if I find these bugs. The fullscreen one is probably really happening. (I will be able to leave a review on your game later because Itch blocked me for a while from posting messages) :D
Cool idea with the rhythm! It has vibes with the battles from the game "undertale" but with rhytm, good job!
thank you for the comment and I'm glad you liked the game (I will be able to leave a review on your game later because Itch blocked me for a while from posting messages) :D
Loved the chill vibe of this game! It’s a great change of pace for a rhythm-based project — not too stressful, just pure aesthetic enjoyment. The way the visuals sync with the beat is very satisfying. I encountered a small bug with the slider at the start (on Firefox), but after that, everything felt solid. The music is top-tier. Keep up the good work, really looking forward to your future projects! Rated 5 stars for the atmosphere.
Thank you for the comment, and this bug is probably because of the browser, because I use Edge and just found this bug now lol, but I hope it didn't affect your experience, thanks for the compliment too (I will be able to leave a review on your game later because Itch blocked me from posting messages for a while) :D
I am so bad at this game, lmao. I thought it was a pretty unique concept for the jam. I've been looking at games all weekend and none were rhythm games so great instincts on that. I also like how straightforward it is. It's simple but fun.
Thanks for the comment : D, the concept of making a rhythm game I thought of doing after 1 day that the jam started and I even loved making this game lol, I love rhythm games, :)
A rhythm game is super ambitious and cool! Amazing work on this!
thank you for the comment rhythm games have always been one of my passions :D
Really creative. The idea is out of the box. Fun to play too.
thank you for the comment and for the compliment too :D
Great music and timing probably it took you some time to make it to sync
thanks for the comment, you asked if it took long to sync, yes it took long lol :)
Great music, nice work timing everything with the beat! :)
Thank you for the comment, and I'm glad you liked the songs. It was a bit complicated for me to sync everything to the rhythm of the music :p
Very fun! Great music too!
thank you for the comment :3, thank you very much for liking the songs from my game, I'm really happy about that :)
