Composer from the game "Crescendo" here! I found the game pretty simple and extremely fun once you figure out how to play. The visuals are among one of my favorites from the jam so far! The music is very chill and fits the atmosphere so well. I'd love to see a full release of this game and think it's got a lot of potential for success on being unique. I did find the knobs to be a little difficult to adjust sometimes, the main problem being that sometimes my cursor would go off the hitbox of the knobs when adjusting, but it didn't seem to be an extreme issue as I did manage to quickly adapt to it. The other issue I ran into was that when selecting the level, it was kind of hard to see which level I was selecting since the hitboxes also seemed to be off, but I imagine you probably didn't have the time to implement a highlight. Overall, this is a very unique game, and one of my favorite visuals mixed with a very chill soundtrack so far! Definitely incredible what you were able to accomplish in 96 hours!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review! We've definitely been considering polishing the game up a little and were thinking of the possibility of adding different characters to have a greater variety of instruments, but alas even with all this time, we still rushed to get our idea out haha! We'll definitely fix the knobs issue, and we'll definitely take into consideration highlighting the levels when selecting them! I'm glad you enjoyed our little band despite these hiccups in our game <3
