Very fun, very chaotic. The artstyle was so, so beautiful too! This would do super well as a mobile game. Kepe up the good work!

I love the concept of this game, nice take on the theme! Gameplay was challenging but in a way still relaxing. Overall just a great job!

Love the musical take on a not-quite 'bullet hell'! Hearing the notes play with each collection is very soothing while frantically trying to dodge the unneeded notes. I would recommend adding a low-key background track for the notes to blend in to, it would add a bit more character. Overall, great work!

It is a great game, with an amazing idea. The gameplay was fun, and having to try harder after notes reset you back in my opinion gave it quite a challenge which I enjoyed. I really loved the art of the animals. I found it relaxing hearing the SFX match with the notes hit, so great job on that too. Discussed stuff via DMs that I would change. Otherwise, great job!

Ths is an amazing idea and the game is absolutely beautiful. However it was infuriating to play. Often there were no places to stand without notes and even hitting thee samee note twice would resart the progress. I feel like the aesthetic vibes are goig fro a zen game but the difficult gameplay had me not even payng attention to the artwork by the end. 
Very well made and gorgeous, well done.

To hear it was infuriating is really disheartening but its great feedback!! Thank you for taking the time to play!! I almost added a small cutout to the edges of the screen to go for a "safe" zone but I wasnt sure if i should; after your feedback I'm gonna add it for the next round of play testing I do for it to see if it reduces the difficulty and frusteration at all.

Great idea! The animal pictures are also great. I'm going to try to learn musical scales with this game.
