Firstly, this looks so good and polished! For a jam game, this is in such a fine form! Played it with my friend, and we both love rhythm games anyway, so we quite enjoyed it! Loved the music, loved the art, loved the gameplay! But, as many others have said, it would be good to have a setting for us to change the key binds as my friend said his fingers are getting all cramped by playing with the mouse. We got to level 3, and got to the final seconds of the song and failed while the last orb was on screen T^T. Also, this is just something from me, but I think the first level and second level have quite a jump in difficulty haha. My friend also said it would be good to have a line to show each measure so it would be easier to differentiate between triplets and quarter notes. The beat mapping could be a little bit more concise with pitch/instrument, but this is already VERY impressive for a jam game! So great job everyone who worked on this! We really enjoyed it, my friend also said that he really loved the game, and would buy it if its development continues hehe.

Glad you enjoyed it as mush as you did! We're  working on the post jam version and  I've never done that but I'll try to find a way to change the keybind...and I'll try to polish some beatmaps  'cause I know some of them are really rough rhythmic and difficulty wise.
Also, can you explain what you meant by more concise ? You mean that it has to follow only one instrument in particular?
Anyhow, thanks you for that review

Really great looking/sounding game. Already feels really polished. Great job! Also as someone else mentioned, it would be great to have Player 1 buttons closer together to allow for single player

Really enjoyed that! The music's perfect for the game. Growing up with Parappa the Rapper that hits home on the gameplay with nice moodier vibes and deeper rhythms. Had to play both players myself, which, whilst not the jam theme, would be really fun if the DFJK became maybe DFGH in single player mode if there were one. Great work!

Single player mode is already in the work, you will be able to play it after the jam if you want. I'll try to have key bind too if I can.

Super cool! The art was great, and the idea for a two player rhythm game was very creative!

The art and music are top notch! Though I only managed to get to the green siren with my sister, but it's still incredible!

Wow! Amazing art and great music. Player 1 was really hard until I realized there's no mashing penalty and just mashed to enjoy the music :)

Daaamn. This game is something else. I'm not a big fan of rhythm games myself, but this game has some really good vibes. The music, the graphics, the animations and visuals are great! Truly good job.

The game is super beautiful ! I'll play again when I find someone to play with me, otherwise I can't beat level 1 :D
