That was a really cool game, I'd love to see more of it! The shooting was tied to some musical elements, that was a surprise to find out, but a really good one
The lane switching mechanic had a pretty good learning curve attached to it, and after a few tries I got pretty good at it. Felt good swinging around between lanes, smashing objects and the final heart "boss" that messed with your vision of what's ahead was also pretty cool. So if you ever feel like finishing the game, or at least giving it a bit more to do in terms of level length or maybe even mechanics, let me know!
Really beautiful game. The sound design was great and I love the foggy mountains in the background. I also really appreciate the dual purpose design of smashing and moving with the mouse buttons. The shooting part felt a bit unnecessary and out of place, but it didn't take away from the overall experience. Nice work.
Thank you so much!
This was fun! I like the concept! It feels like guitar hero! Wish there was a way to quit the application, had to use the old alt-f4
Yeah funny enough we were so stressed out because of the time limit we totally forgot about that ;D
This was a great proof of concept! I really liked that it added in that extra instrument when you shoot that matches up with the speed of the shots.
Yeah I still love the concept, we're actually thinking about maaaaaaybe developing it further someday.
Really amazing! Keep up the great work.
The visuals are good and it's pretty fun after I understood the controls. Well done! :D
Thank you!
nice game!
Thank you!
