- Great entry, one of the strongest. Really strong thematically. I would lean a bit more heavily into the educational part of it next time as I felt a bit lost, but that's a nitpick. Excellent job!

Love the NES / 8 Bit aesthetic - really nailed it. Great attention to detail things like menus, sounds etc. Reminded me a bit of original Zelda.
I was a bit confused at first at what I was supposed to be doing - perhaps a little bit of an explanation on how to read sheet music / scales for the less musically inclined would be a good addition.
Very creative and fun!
Thank you for the feedback! We are hoping to improve the practice mode in a future update to provide a better tutorial on how to play and read the staff.
I love roguelikes so much. So so much. Custom soundtrack, great visuals, mode with no timer. What's there not to like?
Thanks for checking it out! We would love to add some deeper roguelike elements in the future.
Melody Quest has so much style. I love the music and the clean layout. I had a hard time outsmarting those snakes sometimes too lol.
Thank you for the kind words!
This made me remember my music classes back on school, still not very good with them, but what an awesome idea to teach kids how to remember sheet music! Really neat and original game, I like the OST as well.
Thank you so much for checking it out!
I've been playing this game since you posted it on Discord days ago. It's really cool and fun. I really could have used something like this when I first started out in band, haha.
haha! Thanks!
I'm terrible with music notes but I remembered enough to finagle my way through! Awesome job on this, the items you can pick up along the way plus the varying levels of the dungeon is really neat. Plus teaching kids about sheet music I think can be pretty good!
Thanks for checking it out! Yours looks awesome too, love the old school look.
+1 this is awesome
thank you! Music games unite!
Great job! This is one of my favorites from the jam :D
thanks!! Really enjoyed yours as well!
