Wow what a ride, I would jump in front of a train to protect my boy Harold. Honestly don't know what's going to top that, y'all made me invested in a rhythm game which is amazing. All around great stuff, no notes, keep up the amazing work!
Thanks so much, Isaac; I'm so glad you enjoyed! Your playtesting/feedback was incredibly helpful in the development process!
Thanks so much for helping out with playtesting! It made a big difference in how the game turned out. You rock!!
the ants are so cute and the art is so so so beautiful!! love a good rhythm game and this is such a great way to spin it. came here after roman hyacinths' stream
Thanks so much for playing; so glad you enjoyed it! Your game is in my to-play collection :)
Perfect game jam game! I really want more complex levels. The music and SFX were also perfect. I don't normally enjoy rhythmn games, but I really did like this one. The art is also beautiful, and it's what made me click this game from the list.
HOWEVER. Ants are girls! I would love to see this with a mean girl theme instead :D
So glad you enjoyed; thank you for playing! I was so confused about your comment about ants being girls until I Googled —TIL! Appreciate you sharing that :)
omg that is so funny. I thought everyone knew this because of the ants movies Antz and Bugs Life--after those came out everyone said the same thing!
... today I also heard of Antz and Bugs Life for the first time in my life 😂
omg i am old
the art is really amazing, this is my favorite submission I've played!
Thanks so much for the kind words! :)
Woo, such a cool game. and the art-style is beautiful.
Thank you; so glad you enjoyed! :)
Incredible artwork, the style is amazing !!
I really enjoyed playing this fun little game, the music & the story were on point !
Thanks so much, I’m glad you had a good time with it!!
This feels like a minigame straight out of Rhythm Heaven. The music was pretty catchy and the visuals were cute!
Thanks so much!! Once I'm done playing jam games, it's back to attempting a Perfect on High-Five Fever... I'll get it one of these days.
Gorgeous artwork, wonderful music, love the voice acting in the beginning! A really good way to build on the rhythm heaven genre with the direction of the keys, I enjoyed playing it!
It makes me so happy to see that it's resonating with Rhythm Heaven fans! Thanks so much for playing!!
Thanks so much; it was a delight to play your game earlier, Bosco!!
Really cool art and music, loved the narrative and sound design as well! This one hit different!
Thanks so much; appreciate the kind words!
so much fun, amazing art, music, and story. yall did amazing, full marks
Thank you so much for the kind words!! 🐜
Thanks so much!! Was lovely to play your game earlier!
this is one of my favorites of the jam. I love rhythm heaven so this was so perfect for me. I didn't understand how it tied to the theme until I read the description that you have to "count" the down beats. However I don't really think there was much counting involved. That said the game is so cute and very impressive for four days. I had a lovely time.
I've been all over Rhythm Heaven Groove, so it makes me so happy to hear the comparison, haha. With regard to the theme, I think of it in the high-level sense that rhythm is based on counting out meter, but I digress. Thanks so much for playing and offering feedback, trav!!
What is this? Osu for ants? (joke :D)
This is such an incredible artstyle!!! I loved playing it so much. I enjoy rhythm games like these, the gameplay was very satisfying. I love how the entire game just vibrates with colors and life. The soundtrack was simple yet fitting.
Good job and good luck!
Even ants need to get a little funky from time to time! Thanks so much for playing!!
great game and um AMAZING ART???? How do you make such good art and so much of it in 4 days??
Thanks so much; so glad to hear you enjoyed it! I actually wrote a post a while back with some tips and resources I use for making art under game jam crunch, feel free to check it out here if you'd like: https://www.romanhyacinths.com/post/4-tips-to-improve-your-game-jam-art
