Yes, We created the vast majority of the music during the game jam

The Player creates the vast majority of the music ... in the game :-D

It's crazy, how my head sometimes messes with me, when you hear the instructors track and fills in beats, that aren't there. It's fun to play with the beats, selecting the dice faces could be a bit easier though. The left/right buttons cause a lot of work, when editing the beat.

Really creative and fun idea.

Hahahaha fair, there wasn't an option to say I was recruiting my audience to make the game for me ;)

Thanks for the comment!

this was fun!! i wound up unable to finish it (i got to puzzle 5) b/c the constant sound gave me a headache, so I really would have appreciated a way to pause/reset the track as it plays. but the aesthetic was cool and so were the sound effects! it was a really fun and challenging series of puzzles!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately due to the multi-threaded implementation of the main tracks, pausing and playing with accuracy is kinda difficult. Muting the tracks is the closest alternative or pressing the instructor and muting their track. But I definitely understand the concern and in future builds I'd figure it out :)

Very fun and unique! A full DAW like this would be cool!

Thanks a lot! I think I'll continue developing this into something more full :)

Really unique take on the theme! I didn't expect to see a working DAW in the jam, but I am pleasantly surprised.

Can't stop bobbing my head the whole time! Super unique and creative, yet remains simple enough for me to pick up the mechanics in just seconds. Awesome work!

Wow! This is a really addicting and very creative game!

I spent 20 minutes going through the first 4 levels and didn't even notice it. If this game was paid, I would be ready to buy it :)

Developer

Thank you so much for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed it :)
