The most experimental gameplay idea so far, promising but not yet smooth enough to make for an actually fun experience - I preferred to evade enemies (killing the whole point). Worth exploring more; maybe by adding a non-combo weak attack, an indicator of successfully queued attacks, and clearer beat distinction, this might just work!

I'm a big fan of rhythm games in general and I loved the ideas that this game explored quite a bit. Props to you for getting procedural generation and pathfinding in the game, those are not easy things to implement (and get right) given the time constraints.

For a game with an emphasis on the down-beat, you might want to pick/compose a song with more of an emphasis on the down-beat itself. Additionally, having some kind of rhythm indicator would help too (i.e. Crypt of the Necrodancer has the bar at the bottom indicating the beat, Rhythm Heaven mini-games mostly feature characters that bop to the beat of the music). These are all not simple tasks (making a bop/indicator that feels right, syncing the animation to the BPM, etc.), but it might've been more impactful to the game than the pathfinding or procedural generation.

I like the idea of "combo"-ing arrow key inputs to make a directional attack. It just didn't make sense to me at first (why do I need to make three arrow key inputs to attack to the left instead of just pressing left?) Maybe it might make sense for a weapon like a mage's staff where the combos end up casting some sort of spell or what not? Another option would be to require players to make arrow-key inputs to a specific rhythm (maybe on the upbeats?), and then introduce different weapons (like bows) that require a different rhythm/combo.

It's also pretty hard to make a 2D tile-based rhythm dungeon crawler without making it just like Crypt of the Necrodancer. Regardless, good job getting all of the stuff you got in for the jam, it's not easy to make rhythm games functional within the timeframe.

I lover you have tried to make a rhythm/music game. I did not totally understand how I was suppose to play the game.

A fun game! The attacks mechanic is interesting and challenging. Maybe add a tutorial for that - it’s quite hard to get used to in the real fight. Good job!

Interesting game! It took me some time to understand the controls and to memorize the sequences, but once I did it was pretty fun!

Está bastante entretenido el juego, y no me esperaba ese tipo de controles para hacer los ataques, y tampoco me esperaba que al presionar los botones de atacar estos hicieran sonidos que en serie quedaban bien y más con la música de fondo. Y la generación procedural de los dungeons está bien también. Es uno de los juegos más entretenidos que he probado de está Game Jam. Lo único malo es que a veces los enemigos se quedaban trabados algunas veces al ir al mismo cuadro del dungeon y también a veces se quedaban yendo de un cuadro a otro y se devolvían, pero ocurrió muy poco. ¿Vas a continuar mejorando el juego después de la Game Jam? 

Really like rythm games! The sounds of the attacks fits well, it was satisfying to press and listen to.

I struggled a bit at first because I don't have a QWERTY keyboad but I managed to pass a few levels so all good!

Good job 😄

i love the idea! i really have a thing with rithym games, though i think is a bit hard to get used to it, i think you should do a extended tutorial, at least me didn't really got it.

But i think the idea is pretty good!

i had fun trying out!

I like it, needs a shop or power ups. Maybe some diverse enemies too. I like how if i went fast drums started to sound

Well done ! I like the design, and the attack on the music beat is a good idea !
