Really loved this game and it's one I find myself coming back to every now and then. It's just a shame I didn't find it until the submission period was over. Gameplay concept and audio are of course through the roof but also I really like the visuals a lot too. That being said I am not very good at it especially when it's the sad girl's part and I had to play multiple notes at the same time.

If you were to improve upon this, I think the game letting you know the exact notes you got wrong at the end would be nice, so I can analyse my mistakes. Also I wish you could change the speed of the replay + letting us easily rewind and pick a starting point for the replay would be a blessing.  Otherwise this is a great game that I hope you continue developing.

One of the most interesting games I've played in a while. Really creative use of the theme and the visuals were absolutely gorgeous. I am musically challenged but it was still really fun to play! 10/10 :)

Love it!!!! The art is AMAZING, the theming is so so well done and the little music box thing is so so so cute gosh I am So impressed

only small issue is: I’m rly bad at this ;w; And I’d have Really appreciated it if the game was a bit simpler to approach, for example by adding an easy “play from start” button to the music play (I do love the crank but I mean for the customers mp4), and for it to just be a bit bigger so you can click on “I want to listen to spefically beat 3”, since as it thats a smidge akward, also a way to play at like 0.5x speed would also be so so appreciated since gosh I REALLY like the game conceptually and thematically The little bow on your cursor is enough to make it worth playing and this game has so so many more little lovely things to offer <3

Seriously super kawaiiiiii ~w~ Such an awesome way to approach the game jam theme, my years of choir have prepared me for this rahhhh! Lovely art style and animation <3 I think the replay system would benefit from having a better way to replay it maybe slowing the audio or something similar. Lovely lovely game though! Congrats on the release! <3

It's so cool! You can get all my 5-star rating :))

This was harder than I expected it would be after the first level.  The percussion level especially threw me off.

The tracker on the replay seemed a little bit glitchy — it seemed like if I started from anywhere except the first note the pitch of everything would be off.  It would be nice if there were some better controls to, say, set the start and end of what you wanted to listen to.

But overall a very cute little game

A seriously clever idea. Such a charming art style and overall vibe! My only complaint is about ease of finding the correct note. Using the music replay was a bit finicky, and it'd be nice if there was also a way to select the exact point on the timeline and hear just that note as a form of comparison. I think that would make building the melody a bit more enjoyable!

This concept is really cool and I think executed well, but I found it a bit too difficult right off the bat. That could just be me though. I spent a while on the first melody only to be told it was wrong.

What a damn cool idea! :D

Okay. I'm definetly not talented enough for this game, but im impressed by it.^^


Idk.. Maybe one or two easy beginner melodies to get started, would be good. The first song was really hard for me xD


But overall a creative interpretation of the theme and good work :)

Beautiful art is very creative gameplay. I think I need learn how to music to appreciate it more. Nice game regardless.

What an amazing idea! I am very bad at it, but I loved playing it anyway. :)

Cute game! But occasionally I'd move my mouse over the same note and it would play at a different pitch (especially with D), and I struggled to figure out how to actually place the note I wanted in the right place. 

If you continue tinkering with it, it would be nice if the notes listed at the top were "grayed out" until you selected it so you could be sure you knew which one you were placing. There may have been other clues, and apologies if I overlooked them, but that visual would have helped me. Really really cute concept though!

Really nice looking game, liked the musics aswell. I had some trouble understanding what to do, when I started doing what I thought was right I didn't feel like I got enough feedback to know if it was right or not, I also had some trouble with the spinning mechanic but that seems to be more of a limitation than a mistake since plenty of games had that where the dial ends up going the wrong way sometimes.
Really cool and unique!

Really sweet game, i would have loved to have the possibility to loop the melodies and/or slow them down, especially for the drum guy's melody as it was at higher bpm. That being said, great game!! Can't wait for a full release.

I really enjoyed the premise of this game, I did get a bit stuck on rotating the drum thing to place my notes though since it played through  my song and I ended up 'losing'.

Really fun game idea though and absolutely loved the visuals and the feeling of playing with the music box. Good job.

NGL, I suck at this game and didn’t have the patience to make tunes, but the visuals, audio and mood are top notch
