This is so good of a game. I had to tap my foot all the time to follow the rythm. Like others say the aiming is difficult, because you have to aim and tap with the same finger/hand. I use Xbox gamepad controller. Aiming is right analog and tapping is X. It would be better if tapping is RT. Otherwise it is a very good basic game, reminded me of Hi-Fi rush. And the pixel art and fx is cool too. Good job dev!

Thanks for the feedback. I'm actually just starting out—an aspiring solo dev—and the only code I've mastered is Lua. PICO-8 is really limited, so it's very hard to create anything long-form, though I do have a Freddy game on my Itch page (with a beginning, middle, and end) made in PICO-8. Game dev is a hobby for me. Cheers from Brazil!
I think wasd + mouse so you can aim your strikes would feel a decent bit better, but I do like the concept! Its quite charming!
Also you might want to only drive score/combo up when you hit an enemy? Since I think you can just chill in the corner driving up your score otherwise :P
Fun little game though!
Hey there! I'm glad you liked it. I actually work in game audio—my Instagram is @rafaelgameaudio—so the dev side is just a hobby for me. Unfortunately, Pico-8 is quite limited; you have to work with very little storage space. I use Pico-8 to flesh out my ideas, and some of them are already being discussed for larger releases. I really appreciate the feedback—feel free to follow me and keep up with my work. Thanks a lot! Cheers from Brazil.
