Nice game!, I quite like your idea of communicating through music :) I couldn't get past the bit where it said "Note, number" though, I couldn't replicate her two tones with any of A, S or D that I had available.

Nice, fits the theme well. I couldn't get past ASD though.. my notes wouldn't go that high.
Got stuck pretty quickly. I'm not sure what "note, number" means, but she was clearly singing a note I didn't have access to yet.
really cool idea, but yea i think you get the notes out of order
Cute game, I also can't get past ASD though
I got stuck on the third pattern (only had three notes). One of the notes sung by the girlfriend was higher than any note I could play. Not sure if there was something I wasn't getting, but I just couldn't progress.
I added a hint for the third puzzle in the description :)
I expected this to be a sweet little Simon Says game. Boy was I wrong. This is a full-on critique on male-female communication. There's something clear here: talking to your girlfriend is no easy task, women are impossible to comprehend!
In all seriousness, the puzzles were very tough. They took me a lot to figure out, and I couldn't make it past Mastermind.
very cool concept. I got stuck on the third one though.
Great game, i get stucked in the third letter
Challenging but cool concept.
She must think that I am partially deaf... :| Like it, feels rewarding due to the dating factor :)
Cute! Really nice concept, reminded me of times playing Journey! There's an annoying buzzing sound in the background I found quite distracting though - thought the laptop was having a fit!
Nice idea, I don't think I'm musical enough to solve some of these puzzles.
Nice idea, cute graphics. I got stuck (as others appear to have) when the pink character sings a fourth - I only had ASD, and I needed F at that point to copy her. So, I didn't get very far. Given your hint above, I tried and eventually got it, but it was pretty counterintuitive. I tried the Notes as Offsets puzzle next, but I was completely incapable of figuring out what you meant me to do. A bit bewildering. Some more visual cues or help might be warranted. But it looked neat, and was fun.
This is a great concept but way unintuitive - I have a good music background and couldn't legitimately figure out notes as offsets. Most people have enough trouble identifying the notes themselves!
Thanks for the feedback! I do agree that some of the solutions to some of the puzzles weren't exactly obvious. Maybe I should have added a few more cues, audio or visual, to help.
