Very challenging game! 

Developer

AWW! Thank you for featuring me! :D The new version is much easier lol <3 Had some bugs in the old one with the way notes were spawning in :) lol

Developer

Thank you everyone! A new bug-fix build has been pushed :D Please try it out!

This is so so impressive! The visuals are incredible, love the beasties animations they are so expressive and cute. The perspective for the rhythm game took some getting used to but it is very fun! Would like to have some more audio feedback for when you hit a note correctly. This could do so well as a full game with more original music!

Omg this game turned out amazing! All the animations together look sooo cool and there's even a whole tutorial! Amazing fr! Congrats on all the awesome animations you pulled off and on making such a cool finished game! The music and gameplay were very catchy, tho I too struggled with the beats xD

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! Yes the beats are messed up, it’s a known bug. :) A fix is ready as soon as the post-jam period is over!

Super fun! I'm not great at face paced songs like this, so I was murdering the beasties real quick :') I think its funny when they float up into the stratosphere when there's a break in the notes XD You already mentioned this might be known issue, but it feels like I'm not pressing the notes in time with the music and its also not clear where exactly is the hit area is. I assumed it was the middle of the colored area, but it looks like its actually right where the color starts. The animations are really well done too <3

Your assumption was correct! A lot has been fixed. :) I hope you will give it a try after the voting period is over! :D

Great game ! I am really bad at music games, never managed to win them, and yours is no exception, but I have to say I enjoyed it a lot ! It is adorable and the audio is great. You did an amazing job and I love those characters so much.

Developer

No worries! There is a bug with the notes / timing - so it’s not you! :D I have a fix and people have already been playtesting with MUCH better results, lol :) Sorry about that!
