I had the pleassure of animating the characters, so I'm glad you liked the looks of everything!
We did our best to keep things simple and on a sort of middle ground, that's why we have both the parry mechanics and the knobs! And for less skilled players (my family) they struggled a lot more and were constantly trying to get the lil guys back in tune haha. Also, the first versions of the game were way worse on the waiting side (there was a song that only had like 5 mistakes and they were way easier to avoid).
Thank you so much for playing our game! <3
