Very loud, much cough, anxiety inducing, and crazy at times.

That being said great game

How has nobody mentioned the damn shutterstock cover LMAO. Hilarious on that front. Honestly pretty neat game, the movement of the beat is more gliding than I expected, but it was easy to get used to. Only comment is that some patterns I think are genuinely impossible to get through, like one with 4 consecutive spikes with very tight gaps. Are they preset patterns that are randomly picked, or are you procedurally generating each red triangle? More to the point, sometimes the blue squares are also impossible to reach. Nevertheless, I like this game and congrats on submitting to the jam! Wishing you the best.

P.S. my highscore is like 50 seconds

Flappy bird but cancer.

And the sound design is immaculate.

I love it, good game.

Really fun idea for the game mechanic. Poor person whoever's heart I was controlling. The sound effects felt really accurate. Although a little morbid

Im terrible at these games and so I loved how hitting a spike didn't instantly kill me. Also the theming really hits you when your in the flow as it starts to sound like a real heart monitor. Great job!
