The game is well-designed! Having to manage both the rhythm and the movement makes it challenging, which is great.

If you want to check out our game, feel free to do so :3 https://butterflan.itch.io/spicy-king

Oh, what a pity. I only play games in browser for security reasons. I won't be able to try your game. I'm sorry.

Nice combination of rhytm + bullet hell, but it feels a bit easy. It would be cool to have more "bullets" and ability to move in the other two directions, in a limited fashion. Good work finishing.

Developer

Thanks for your words and for playing my game.

My first rhythm game in this jam and I like how it was made. The art is good, but the sound effect volume can be a little high compared to the music sometimes. Anyway, it was fun to dodge and press in rhythm at the same time. The game was easy to learn  and the controls were good. Great job!

i realized i'm so bad at swimming ahah the fact that you need to take care of the fish AND the keys to fit the rythm isq superrrr hard to me (but it's very cool to play, i'm just bad ahah)

Hi. Thanks for playing my game. Yeah, I know it's hard to do the two things at the same time, but as you say it's cool. I'm glad you had fun.

Pretty nice multi-tasking mechanic! Figuring out which arrow I had to press while dodging the fishes was quite the challenge! I enjoyed the game :)

I got a 59.10 😎
