I realy like the gameplay and how simple and simultaniously good it looks,  but I can't get used to the extra tap for end of long color line :)

Developer

Thank you! For long lines you just have to hold and let go at the right time, you don't need to tap unless there's an extra orb at the end.

I think you performed really well with this one! The artstyle is clean and everything works together well. The  songs have character and the mapping is great. Actually enjoyed playing it. :)

Thank you very much, I'm not a very talented artist (mostly focused on programming) so I had to stick to minimal and simple shapes, but I'm really happy with how it turned out. I'm glad you had fun!

Game is good, but there's a big skill gap between the 3rd and 4th level

Developer

Yup definitely, the fourth level introduces a lot of mechanics that are pretty difficult to execute. I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

Good approach!! It is a very good idea for the topic "Convergence" which is not exactly "Divergence", but it is understood by proximity of concepts.

Developer(+1)

I know ;-;
My Idea was to "split" or "diverge" the rhythm map into different branches, but the gameplay ended up being quite convergent lol

Nice job!  The game is very polished and I really like your take on the them!

Developer

Thank you! The theme was pretty tough for me, but I'm pretty happy with what I ended up with.

I like how sleek this one looks! I included it in my Rhythm Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out!

Developer

That's really cool, thanks for checking out my game! I've watched the video and I definitely need to add a tutorial next time lol

reminiscent of rhythm doctor while still having its own unique aesthetic very fun!

Once I got the hang of it I loved it, feels very polished for the limited time we had, good game!

Huge thanks to my playtesters, they were very experienced in rhythm games and I was able to fix a lot of inconsistencies. I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

I would have loved a tutorial. I felt like I was doing something wrong, but I don't know. Nice game, liked the backgrounds and visuals. : )

Developer

Thank you for playing! It definitely gets challenging past 3 stars but the core gameplay is just to tap/hold the orbs.

The level of difficulty is moderate, and I enjoyed it! Most of all, I liked using only one key. it's simple, but it's also moderately difficult! Great job!

Developer

Thanks you! The one key gameplay is very much inspired by Rhythm Doctor, which I'm a huge fan of.
