Pretty fun but the non-starter sheets feel underpowered, though if combo carries over between sheets they’d be a bit OP I guess (imagine having a 5x combo and you use the orange sheet). Nonetheless great job on the game.
Really cool approach to a Boss game! I found it hard when the note frequency slowed down a lot, but really enjoyed playing! Great entry!
Very cool game. It's a pity that the attack doesn't follow the music. But even without this, the feeling after the game is good.
have to go to the ghosts and exchanging your abilities on the fly is fun. The controls are simple and intuitive. The sound design is great, the main menu music slaps, so does most of the boss music, and the art is funny. The boss designs are straightforward and punishing and the damage output of the player, even with a high combo score still feels a bit lacking. Great game & game idea
The idea of adding a bard mechanic was great! The combination of rhythmic shooting and bullet hell looks cool!
That is totally awesome. Nice music, nice art, nice gameplay. Man, thats a banger. Bosses are quite challanging but doable. Maybe you can switch the cartoon vfx to pixel styles animations.
Nice gameplay concept, I just missed a few more attack mechanics, such as critical hits, incredible and solid gameplay, I just feel some inconsistency in the art style and resetting everything when you lose is frustrating.
Thanks for playing! critical hits would be a great idea and i know is frustrating, but its the magic of ~roguelikes~ haha, thanks for your feedback
The song is beautiful, the pictures are good, it's fun and unique. The sound is 5/5!!!
I'd love for you to play my game too, if you're interested.
Thanks for playing! yes, this weekend I will play all the games that I haven't rated yet ;)
Nice design, I really like the rythm style!
Thanks for playing my friend :D
