This game is a blast. If you step on a mine. :D
Also,the music is fire! Thanks for the soundcloud upload and link!
Thanks lol!
I'm glad you enjoyed the music, it was a lot of fun to make music for a rythm game! =p
What I liked:
What could be improved:
Thanks for your feedback! We were a bit afraid that the story was unclear but seems it worked!
It seems you're not alone to dislike the mushrooms ^^
For the offbeat problem, did you play on Firefox ? We experienced sync issues with this browser when we tested. If it is not the case, do you think some sound elements caused this? We tried to be careful with not putting sounds on offbeat, but maybe we missed something!
Yea actually I did play on firefox- that makes sense. It still kinda lined up with the off beat so I wasnt sure if that was on purpose or not
[Edit]: I'm the one being to slow for the answer :p
Thanks for the feedbacks!! :)
If you played in your browser it's possible you had sync issues (probably due to performance). But you can "see" if you are too slow or to fast with the position of the quality of your press : the "Fine" can appear on the left (to early) or on the right (to late). Same for "Good" and "Perfect".
Hope it can help. But give it another try on the desktop version it should do the trick!
I played the game again on a different computer and it was great! The beats were definitely on time and it was pretty addicting. I didn't like the mushrooms at first, but when I realized that the backwards thing only lasted for as long as the letters I got the hang of it. I think you shouldn't take the mushrooms out but maybe do a clearer job of explaining the lifespan of the backwards hits. I beat the game with one kid left and it was super funny and well made! My favorite game I've ratied so far!
Liked it a lot! The concept is very interesting and the game is very polished.
Great idea
Wow that's some finely polished entry ! The accuracy requirement is a bit too high for me though XD
Cool art and super juicy
That some awesome product. I also very appreciate you finding time to add main menu to the game. It's such a simple thing, makes it feels way more polished and yet very little projects do that.
Thanks! This menu was actually a lot of fun to make, glad you enjoyed it!
I really liked your game btw!
Really fun idea and well implemented! I am terrible at rhythm games but I still had fun ;) Great work with the cut scenes and juice.
Rhythm game was a great take to introduce some juice. Good pace of difficulty and I love all the unique ways you can die making the next run with the other children easier. My only real critique is that the cut to black for explaining what happened was a bit jarring.
Graphical style is perfect for the game feel and I had a great time playing it. Well done.

Super polished / juicy!, I love the way you need to sacrifice to progress
amazing game i love the theme and the art and the story.
Very cool. Impressive to take on a rhythm game in a jam :)
Awesome, best game I've seen so far
Thank you so much!! 😊😊
Overall, it's pretty good. I like the art and the sound. I don't think the reversing key effect of the mushrooms works well though, it makes the game more confusing to play.
Thanks!
Well the point of hallucinogenic mushrooms is that they make you confused, so I might consider this as a success :D.
But I agree that the actual effect could have been something cooler and funnier to play!
I don't like rhythm games, but this is cool!
Super fun to play, the gameplay reminds me of Crypt of the Necrodancer but with a completely different goal (survive and escape). I found the difficulty curve just right, and I enjoyed the creative use of past corpses and mushrooms. I noticed immediately what I was supposed to do when I saw the campfire haha.
Great game!
Haha, thanks! What you chose to do in the desert must stay in the desert
Nice! The game has a great amount of juice, the gameplay is fun and the premise is really funny. Well done!
Highly polished, wacky and very fun! I love the Hotline Miami and Crypt of the NecroDancer vibes :)
Awesome music and great effects!
A lot of text and dialogue breaks the pace of the game a little and I didn’t quite understand how to identify mines :)
Thanks a lot !!
You cannot guess were mines are actually, you will eventually step on them and need to memorize their position if you restart the game. If you don't, well, after exploding the way is clear! haha
This game f***ing slaps. You guys should win.
Byeeeee!
lol thanks!
Congrats for making a pong game this juicy also!!
