Nice game I really like the art but the gameplay is a little bit bland cuz there is no feedback maybe add it after the jam.If you have time pls play and rate my game too.
The style was good, I think it only need some feedback during gameplay to make it better, its hard to know if I was doing it right. Still pretty good work for the jam, nice!
Nice game, fabulous art. Overall great job!
Cool idea for a rhythm game!
I think the controls need to be more responsive for this kinda game, but that isn't difficult to implement 👍
Cool comic at the beginning for the intro, would be really good with a soundtrack!
It's a pretty interesting concept, but rhythm games require a bit better interactions. And so, when hitting the patterns a jolt of feedback would've been nice and the rhythms need to match the music as well. Great effort though.
Please play and rate our game.
art style love it, gameplay little on the underwhelming side
Loved that it's a rhythm game and its manga cutscene! Very innovative!
Nice to fainally see a fast Snail. funny but lovely. good job.
Honestly I love the art style of this game also it perfectly polished... What I liked about this game was the manga style cutscene.. totally a nice game:)
Gorgeous comic panels at the start and a simple and addictive gameplay the only thing i noticed was that the music didn't loop for me. Amazing work!
How curious, I also had problems listening to my own game's music after posting it on itch.io, I had to change browsers to check if everything was ok
The opening story is amazing! I didn’t expect to see comic-style storytelling in a game. The gameplay is also fun. I hope there could be more guidance and more interactive elements. Really enjoyable!
I like this game, very perfectly polished. And executes what it's meant to flawlessly. if i had one issue, then that would be that i don't quite understand whether you gotta dodge the black lines or touch them as much as possible to get points, you should mention that in the tutorial level after the jams' over. but the game is still flawless regardless of whatever way it is. Nicely executed!
Thank you, I think if I had given better visual feedback with the notes, it would have also solved the problem, the phases part lacked several things that I didn't have time to draw
The visuals are soo nice ! Love the look of this game
The games is nice, it took me some time to get used to it but I enjoyed the graphic and I liked that there is two moods of playing, also the art style was nice, if I had to give a note it would be if there's is more moods or challenging against another player, But really you made a great job.
Reminds me of the movie Turbo, nice work, cool vibes.
I watched the film to inspire me as soon as the jam started!
Really awesome game, loved it! The lack of feedback really bothered me, I never knew if I actually hit a note or not, and still don't know if I was playing it correctly. Really liked the aesthetic, nice one! Managed to get position 1 on both, though I feel they both were really easy aside from a few parts where they suddenly became really difficult.
Honestly, I don't even know if I can get all the notes right, in the middle of development the music decided to get out of sync and what I could do were small temporary adjustments, now that I've done that once, I know I would do a second time differently, I'm glad that you liked it.
Cara sem palavras, essa arte, essa paleta de cores, essa inspiração clara em persona ressoa muito bem com o jogo, me lembrou aquele filme inclusive do caracol que disputa corrida com carro de f1, tudo muito bem feitinho
Great job with the overall presentation and art design. I like the idea of mixing a racing and rhythm game. Congrats!
As a suggestion, having the snail get back to the middle much quicker after a press, will make hitting the middle marks easier and lean more towards the rhythm genre.
It's a good suggestion, I didn't have the chance to experience the game feel of the controls so much, at the last minute I at least added the possibility of playing dragging the mouse or finger if someone was on mobile
I totally understand. We put our level together the night before the deadline. Keep up the good work!
The art is astounding stylish, but the gameplay lacks feedback and the controls feel clunky.
Still, I can tell you're clearly very, very talented! I look forward to your next project.
OMG! How did you make such a polished and high quality game in such a short amount of time. Your game looks like a game from an actual game studio. The game is also fun and interesting.
