hard to understand timing for pressing A/D.  Still cute lemmings

cute models, but sometimes it is hard to determined when to make the character move

pretty neat game!! the art and models were fun and the gameplay was smooth!! The timings were a bit tight, but i enjoyed the difficulty. Though, i did find it initially hard to get into the groove or rather flow of the rhythm initially! Maybe adding a countdown or such at the beginning might help? Anyways overall an entertaining game and the blood effects were a startling, but nice surprise!!

Thanks for the positive feedback! There actually is a countdown in the game, but I don't think it's enough to give a player to have a good sense of the timing. Unfortunately, I ran out of time and wasn't able to implement something else in the UI to help indicate the timing, and the game really needs one since it's on every other beat that you put in inputs.

I really like the mechanic of picking up a chain of lemmings, but I think I found a bug where they would explode in a pile of blood for seemingly no reason. Maybe there is a reason, but I'm not sure? Anyways pretty solid game!

Very small window for the timing, but very unique and great tagline!
