Interesting theme, but I think the learning curve is too hard. I couldn't get past the 2nd level, as I wasn't quite sure what to do. Also it took me a really long time to understand what you mean by the instructions to get past the first level (particularly with the diamond node thing).
Thank you for the honest feedback -- I agree that the learning curve is a bit too steep. I could have telegraphed what each of the nodes in the diamond did more clearly, and will do so in future builds.
That and also just the fact that I didn’t even know where the diamond I needed to interact with to begin with and it took me some time to figure it out lol.
Let me preface this by saying: you picked (IMO) the hardest interpretation of "scale" (music related) and made a nice game about it, congrats!
It is pretty clear and satisfying making the notes match, but I feel that there are too many pieces to juggle though? I feel that I ended up mostly trying to match the corners of the purple diamond.
Either way, great job!
Thank you for the feedback -- I wholeheartedly agree. The problem is that I had a concept for the game where the rotators (purple squares) modulated a lot more than just the pitch of the emitters, but acted as a general logic-controlled, gating unit. Unfortunately a lot of those mechanisms didn't come to fruition during the jam, but I'll certainly be building off this concept into a full game and will take these experiences into account.
To other jammers -- thank you in advance for your comments, I read all of them. However, I'll be slightly delayed as I'm traveling tomorrow. Congratulations on submitting and getting through this insane 96 hour grind.
