This game was a blast. Really happy with how you used a single track to keep things familiar and slowly increase the difficulty.
Lovely art, great music, consistent game feel. One of my top picks for this jam.

This was a really fun wee rhythm game! I love the way you’ve approached the limitation! I had to try it a couple times, cause the difficulty ramped up a bit with the speed increases, but I believe that’s just as I’m not very used to playing rhythm games.

The art style and music are really on point, I adore the style! The patrons that pop up to request weapons were also a lovely wee aspect that added to the experience. It was really fun, I have some friends who really enjoy rhythm games that I know will love it!

TLDR, fantastic job, fun game!

I love that take on the theme and the game was super fun. I did find out that you cant die if you just spam press all the keys as theres no penalty for hitting the wrong key or the wrong time, but it was still really satisfying to hit the notes in time with the music, and the music is really nice too, I love that style. Art is great and I loved the people popping up to ask for things. Overall I really like it, good job :)

This is so funky! I am not normally a rhythm game nut but I was so excited trying to catch the arrow keys. The art is absolutely gorgeous as well :)

The use of limitation seems kind of forced in, art is astounding, concept is slightly unoriginal yet has a slightly different spin on it, really enjoyed it. (Criticism is me just trying to squeeze something out of it, so don't take it too harshly!)

Thanks for your constructive review :) Indeed, if we had more time , I think we could have added some subtleties. Instead, we preferred to play everything on the card of the dwarf ( who hits!)

It's a masterpiece

Really good game! Wasn't able to play very long before my computer crashed, so do the requests actually affect the order/speed of what you're playing?

Developer

We wanted to do a recipe system, something like a "cook, serve, delicious", but we didn't had time to implement it :-)

The arrows are not completely random tho, we use patterns so there is some predictability !
