I adore this game. I see you already know about the issue with the bouncy notes (I had it in both the download and the browser version). But the art is amazing, the idea is great, I'd love to see what ways you can incorporate further musical tools into game mechanics!

Really nice concept, art and music. However, I really had issues with the controls - even the first levels are not really playable at all. With this fixed I think this can already can make a quite polished game. Nice job!

Thanks. I think the controls are fine. The problem is the notes are shaking too much which causes them to bounce/move around. I've fixed it and will probably release it once the jam rating is over. With that being said, I now know the importance of early playtesting :)

Very nice art and a really cute main character for the main PC, I had a fun time playing. I like the concept, but it was kind of a guessing game at first as to which blocks were which for each level without using the help button on the side. It'd be nice to have a way of knowing what the blocks you're pushing around sound like before arranging them, such as when the PC touches them.

Music arrangements were nice and worked well, but (as a personal take only) using copyrighted material, even just arrangements of them, is something I would avoid, but whatever works for you. That being said, thanks for the experience!

It was a bit hard to figure out which note was playing, and the moving stick kept knocking my notes away, but it was still a  fun game, with fantastic visuals and sounds!

Amazing art & music + sound effects! The controls felt nice, I liked moving the little music note creature to push the notes around :) I wasn't quite sure how to play out at first but with a little experimentation I figured it out and I had a really fun time playing!

Amazing work :D

Really cool game. Music was nice to listen to and I love the art style in the cut-scene. I got a block stuck in the corner and was soft locked.

thanks for playing!! Also we added in a restart button for this reason though it got squished up and partly hidden in webGL. Gotta build earlier next time!

Very nicely done! I like the hand draw and the fact that you used classical music

I love your hand drawn artstyle - the animated intro is stunningly good! But I have absolutely no clue how to play your game - I am a total noob when it comes to music.

Thanks, you can check out the about section on our page or watch the gameplay video if you have no clue how to play

Lovely artstyle and inventive concept. A little difficult to grasp the gameplay loop but I did eventually get it. Thanks for the game!

Such a good game ! I really enjoyed the game, your art is insane, this is smooth and relaxing while it's well polished to me. Definitely a great job !

The animation and character design was great! I didn't really get what to do but I enjoyed pushing around the notes with the blob.

What I liked:

  • The cut scene art with the piano at the beginning really reminded me of Rhapsody in Blue in Fantasia.
  • The art in general is pretty fantastic.
  • The idea of a game where you place notes to match video game music is really cool.

Usually I leave some helpful criticism or suggestions, but I can't think of anything that really stood out to me. Job well done on this creative and great looking game!
