Very nice game! It's kind of a mix between Just Shapes and Beats and Crypt of the Necrodancer, really nice idea. You used the same music the "Dog Galore" entry did, what a coincidence, it's a cool theme :D
I think the beat might be a little bit off with the music, it might just be me not getting it right tho.
What a coincidence me and PouPou used the same music and genre. The beat bar is a little janky because I couldn't find any good way to make sure it's 100% in sync with the music, so I had to settle for something less than ideal.
Awesome and simple little rhythm game, had a good time playing it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was a cool game :) I loved the concept and how the character bounced around. In terms of feedback, there didn't seem to be any sort of reason to stick to the beat? I was able to move around regardless of if I hit the green zone. Good job overall though!
Thank you. Sticking to the beat is the way you get points but it's not communicate very well.
Nice game, like the animation, and graphics.
and the music is epic-
good work keep it up :D
Thank you!
This is a super fun and interesting mechanic! I've never played Necrodancer so I don't know how it compares, but it's really fun and satisfying to move around to the beat! This is a strong foundation to build on; if you could add some puzzles and exploration it could be really cool! Good job!
Glad you liked my game, while I don't think puzzles or exploration would fit the game it's a really interesting idea. I'll add that the gameplay appeared out of nowhere, the original game idea was "Crypt of the Necrodancer + Rhythm Heaven" where the player would switch between Necrodancer style gameplay and Rhythm Heaven style gameplay, but I ended up on this idea in the end. Thanks for the feedback.
Definitely some necrodancer vibes! Could use more polish and gameplay, but the foundation is there for a fun game experience. Keep it up!
As I said in another comment: "Necrodancer was one of my primary inspirations for this game." I agree that the game is a bit on the crude side, I originally wanted to, I ended up not doing that because it wasn't necessary and I was swiftly running out of time.
Yeah it certainly has necrodancer vibes. It was cool!
I couldn't see my score while playing, implementing that might make the game a little easier to grasp
As I said in another comment: "Necrodancer was one of my primary inspirations for this game.", if I update the game a way to see your score during play will be one of the things I implement.
This is cool. It gives me strong Necrodancer vibes. Only suggestion is that it might be useful if the score and health was more visible during the game, because I had no idea how well I was doing.
Fun fact: Necrodancer was one of my primary inspirations for this game. I agree that the things you mentioned are quite unclear, if I update this game I'll be sure to add them in.
I enjoyed it! Not sure what it was about the beat but I found it super hard to get on - I think I naturally picked up on the off-beat and got stuck on that. The first time around I got 0 >.>
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'll admit the game is a bit harder than I expected, (most) rhythm games are naturally hard.
