Graphics are brilliant. Sound effects and music are brilliant, although having said that it would be cool to hear the instruments make a sound when he plays them.

As stunning as it looks and sounds and I didn't think the gameplay was very interesting. I would have found it fun if when you sat at a piano you then had to play something for a while. Maybe some notation could pop up with keyboard letters underneath.

AWESOME GRAPHICS! Really brilliant concept!

The art is wonderful. And I love the music. The gameplay is original, but As the first says. Could be improved with maybe minigames at the instruments or something.

For being a LD game is amazing.

The graphics and sound are great! The gameplay is really confusing. Polish it up and it will be a great game.

Love the graphics and audio! The gameplay could be better though. It's confusing at first that you can only play instruments when you stop moving and it would have been more fun to play instruments _while_ dodging. The instruments also give too much of a bonus, so dodging isn't even necessary.

Fun game!

Really beautiful game, very funny as well. I Included it in part 10 of my Ludum Dare 31 compilation video series, if you would like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/YpdCMKphEUw

Nice graphics and great concept! Since the game is about music, integrating playing the instruments in the background music track would have made the game even better!

Love the beard!

I awarded you a trophy. This post explains why: http://ludumdare.com/compo/2014/12/13/my-picks-for-ld31s-top-10-best-beards-manly-mustaches/

Lovely art and theme for the game.. the gameplay is simple but fun to play! You should make a post Jam version :)

gentlypub 2014-12-15 13:23

Hey guys, thank you for the comments so far (and especially for the beard trophy I guess). :D
A post Jam version would be cool, we will see how much time we have to realise it. Having a certain song for each instrument would be cool, we just couldn't do it in time during the jam but it is something we definitely would integrate into the post jam version. :)

Very nice entry. Nice audio and graphics.

Gameplay-wise, the controls are just fine, but the game could use some progression in the difficulty (if there is some, I didn't notice it) : it is way too hard the first time you try it, but once you get it... much easier. And it stays like that until you stop playing.

gentlypub 2014-12-16 10:48

Yep, this is also something we would have loved to integrate. If we do a post jam version it will have pacing!

Hahahaha, amazing stuff.
Great pixelart. Sound and music.
Fun to play.

deadpixelsociety 2014-12-25 14:49

Great graphics and music!

I also included your game in an article of my favorites! http://fireside.gamejolt.com/post/jam-favorites-ludum-dare-31-huv4hmz6

Nice Jupiter, thanks!
We're happy about the ranking, especially the audio category. Looks like our pavarocket needs more instruments ;)
