What a cool idea! All the characters were great, and the voice acting in very very good! My only critique is that music seems to be only used in the rhythm game section, I think having (background) music during the story sections too would make the sound experience more exciting and enhance the great voice acting even more! Great work anyway!
Nice minigame. Was fun to play even in the early stage. Like the humor <3
The art style is pretty cool.
The UI looks awesome.
Voice acting is amazing.
The mouse cursor tracking in the main menu is a pretty cool effect.
Just wished there were some sound effects on the main menu.
Also, is there a way to go back to the main menu after starting a new game? or do I have to force quit the game?
Overall, great game!
Thank you for making this game and have a good one!
Great demo! A good proof of concept with really great character designs and voicing. I'm impressed with your ability to get a rhythm game set up in Ren'Py!
That being said, as a person who is not great at rhythm games, I did see the Try Again screen a couple of times and the fact that it seem to kick you back to the start of the story did not feel great. (I thought when I messed up on the guessing witch vs princess it put me right back there, so I'm not sure if something else happened or what). Also your confirmation screen after try again seems switched with Yes putting you back on the main menu and No repeating the game.
I'm excited to see where you guys take this!
Thank you so much for your critique! I did some changes in theDemo to fix that Try Again issue, with version 1.3 being the fixed version. Im glad you enjoyed the game :) I did some fiddling with the rhythm game and somehow made it impossible to get a game over(unintentional). But hey at least you'll now be able to play through the game and come across changes I made in the Demo.
