This was mildly like something out of a fever dream. In a good way.
Laughed when the music started becoming more intense, especially with the clown's face/animations. Absurd but creepy.
I have a massive soft spot for "Hall of the Mountain King" though, so you get extra points for that.
It was a little difficult to read which attacks were hitting where, but once I had figured it out through trial-error I was able to play the game as intended.
A similar build-up with other mini-games and a narrative that gave the mini-games weight, would have had me more engaged.
Good job on this, it's made me think of the possibilities of absurd mini-games paired with classical music.
(EDIT: Also, my team submitted quite a similar mechanical concept, in terms of player/opponent attacking/dodging with rhythm in mind, so it's cool to see other people are in a similar mindset.)
This was a fun little minigame. I really liked how you kept all the attacks to the beat. If I were to say one critique, it would be that the clown's attacks were too smooth and it was hard to know when the attack stopped.
I enjoyed it! Pretty straightforward, I think you did a good job telegraphing the attacks of the clown, always had ample time to avoid them. They don't make sense the first time which was a nice touch given that it's a clown :D
Hahaha! Death by slap at 26 seconds. Loved the look of the clown, very amusing game and deceptively hard xD
o c'mon... it's just a flying piano!.... lol coool!!!
Ha, thanks. Glad you enjoyed it, was fun to make \o/
