Really neat concept! nice and challenging too

mukult 2016-04-18 05:06

Wow!! Amazing how you have synced it with music!! Amazing game! :)

Great entry dude!

timeshapers 2016-04-18 05:34

Playing to the beat seems unnecessary.

smy 2016-04-18 06:19

nice "mono vr" fealing!

chobrah 2016-04-18 06:38

Very cool look and feel, good entry!

jk5000 2016-04-18 09:22

Looking really great.

Good the sync with the music was very impressive, but the yellow and orange mechanic playing without the music (Yeah, not very clever play without music) seems like the Undertale Papyrus puzzle xD

I liked the idea for this game. The idea of moving by the musics beat was very clever, but at the same time i felt myself a little lost in movement, since i am not good at pay attention to the musics beats as well. I think the innovation was the best here, and its very challenging too, i couldnt complete it yet! very good job!

Cool idea and looks, but it still lacks an easy level to "get into it". I tried all three directions and died because I've no idea how to get past the spikes.

controls felt a bit weird at first, but once i was moving to beat it felt very solid! very well done..some very nice mechanics and original ideas in this game, my keys couldn't seem to open the door, gonna try again.

This is amazing! I really like the aspect with the Arcade raster screen thing. I also like the rhythm part of it. I think the mechanics could be explained a little better, but overall this is one of the best games I've seen in a while

2016-04-19 02:28

Awesome art, music, and concept. Very visually appealing. It's pretty hard too. It's going to take me quite a bit of learning playthroughs just to figure it all out

wg_phancock 2016-04-19 05:13

I always love rhythm based games. The general design, art, sound, etc are all very well done. The difficulty is very unforgiving, though - it could use some "easy" sections to start out to get the hang of things.

ranmaru90 2016-04-19 09:20

OMG, you're a genius!

chikoness 2016-04-19 13:38

I love the graphic and music! Very very hard to play though...

empyrealhell 2016-04-19 16:56

I really like the necrodancer-inspired movement, nice touch. The beat mechanic seems really fickle though, and would frequently just ignore my inputs and skip a turn, which really punishing when you're trying to cross spikes. Overall not bad, loved the visual design.

apantaloni 2016-04-19 17:40

Really nice music and visuals!

dvdfu 2016-04-19 17:42

The boxes were pretty tough to do. Overall, love the look and feel of the game!

rakowu 2016-04-19 18:19

Great level design and nice idea. As a musician I liked the way movement. Well done.

ragnarolis 2016-04-19 18:57

Nice and hard game. I liked the feel to it and it's mechanics. Good job!

krasse 2016-04-19 19:25

Wow! This is a really polished game. I really enjoyed the beat sync part of it and the graphics. The music was awesome as well.

eric777 2016-04-19 19:29

Great idea. My favorite mechanic was matching the rhythm to get across the yellow/red disco floor. The curved grid made me think of the Sonic blue sphere levels.

I thought the in-game help tiles were well done, my only wish was that they helped me more with what I was about to face.

Great job!

diffty 2016-04-19 19:52

Nice graphics, neat sound !
The gameplay is great but it lack some feedback, it's quite hard to know when you get hit by an enemy and when you just ate it.
Great work :)

team-tiger 2016-04-20 17:07

Nice screen effect and all together look. very slick

omarhuseynov011 2016-04-20 19:24

Hella game to play! Great entry!

geckoo1337 2016-04-20 21:39

I liked the prime idea for this project - move on the music beat was very fun. Very challenging. I could'nt complete it yet. well done ++

hunttis 2016-04-21 14:23

Nice visuals, good music, quite difficult!

mountainstorm 2016-04-21 17:54

Great game, and nice graphics - the more I played the more I found me enjoying it

pietro-ferrantelli 2016-04-23 10:14

Oh man, that was truely great ! I really love how the game feels in general, the moody graphics feet the audio perfectly, the image effects are good and it's fun to play. I usually don't like rythm based games made in jam because of accuracy issues but this one is super polished and the feedback are good. Top marks there !

jupiter_hadley 2016-04-24 15:40

Super interesting game! I included it in my video compilation series of Ludum Dare games, if you’d like to check them out :) https://youtu.be/Rc53wZClozM

phocker 2016-04-26 02:34

really awesome to sync to the music - very hard game - but fun - great job

jin47 2016-04-26 11:59

Awesome Idea. The felling is almost perfect. the music is really great and the overall feeling is very pleasant and challenging!

gamepopper 2016-04-26 12:23

The rhythm action works really well, and I really enjoyed the music. Great work!

themightyteam 2016-04-26 12:24

Good concept and good mix of labyrinth and rythm game.

ployer 2016-04-26 13:24

very cool!

nuberugames 2016-04-26 13:25

Really cool and fun to play!
Really hard, I'll have to come back to beat it. I didn't really get how it links to the theme though.
Good job!

fatsopanda 2016-04-26 19:34

An interesting and challenging game. I like the beat movement a lot but felt that it wasn't responsive always.

nomys_tempar 2016-04-27 09:32

So hard, but really good, nice music and nice overall. I liked the tutorial tiles, that's a cool touch.

bsoddevguild 2016-04-28 13:09

That was cool, I thought it was like ducking OSU, but it's better and less annoying.

deadbodyoutline 2016-04-28 15:52

Really nice entry! I loved the Crypto of the NecroDancer gameplay style and the smart use of rhythm/enemies.

See ya! ;)

Fun puzzle game! The music-synchronized movement / "rhythm" aspect of the game was a good decision in theory, but needed more work in order to accurately sync. It ended up being more annoying, with skipped turns or double movement occurring rather frequently. Nonetheless, good puzzle layout and solid entry overall.

lereveur 2016-05-08 13:13

Really hard, but entertaining and challenging game. The combination of rythm and time limit make it as fun as it's hard. Well done ! (and I managed only to get one key, I'm really bad with this kind of game ^^)
