How does your game fit the theme?
In most games, you know which character you control and you make it interact to reach your goals. In The Soul of the Party, these roles are reversed – you don't know which character you're controlling and your goal is to recognize them by your actions!

Good theme idea and I enjoyed playing it felt very puzzley.
One thing I would fix is the color palette which feels a bit off
Well done!
Fun game! Felt a little like Where's Waldo. I was very bad at it but I was able to do it on Easy mode okay.
Thank you :) It is very much like Waldo, we talked about it a lot when making the concept.
I like the surreal aesthetic of this! Controls were a bit hard to understand though.
Thank you :) we definitely could have done a better job in explaining the controls
The End of Evangelion meets an ABBA concert
Really vibed with the music and theme of this one, great job! Big fan of the slightly surreal aesthetic too.
I loved the concept. What a lovely idea to put the identity question into a light-hearted dance game. I didn't understand the controls at first, then went backt to the menu and there the explanation lay bare in front of me. Good stuff, I'd be happy to see what you would make of it with more time. Maybe after the jam?
P.S.: Solid beats.
Thank you for the kind words, we are actually thinking about working on it some more :) I'm glad you liked the explanation of the controls, we struggled with them perhaps not being explained clearly enough.
I thought they did not stick out enough on the main screen. Maybe a few tweaks on the visuals will do the trick?
Sorry I guess I misunderstood your comment. Yeah, the layout of the main menu could definitely be improved..
I absolutely LOVE the music in this game, for real I sometimes open the game just to listen to it for a while. The concept and the art are also amazingly great.
I can only criticize that the characters were so small that sometimes it was hard to follow the action.
Still, great game and congratulations!!
Thank you so much, the music really does bring the atmosphere to another level :) I agree that some of the dance moves are not as visible as they should be, but we also wanted to leave some space for the background art. If only we had more time and we could play around with it some more :)
That's quite an extended feeling all over the developers, but we have to be proud of doing the best we could with the tools we have ^^
You are definitely right on that note :)
That's a really abstract game for me
I'm not sure if this is a compliment, but I'll take it! :D
Wish this game was longer! also nice music! great work
