Nice entry!

Not a whole lot to it, but the execution was really good. The graphics are nice, and the music layering and building as you go adds a lot.

Fun and peppy game. Not that much to do, but the music and visuals were cool, and I liked that there was good feedback for what I was doing. I found that there was a much bigger window to be wrong after the beat than before, so I ended up hitting it a little late each time and doing better that way, although that grated a little since I'm a tuba player, and we try to keep on the beat perfectly. Nice work.

Was a bit uncertain at first, but it certainly paid off by sticking with the rhythm because the melody and beat is settling. I also liked the ending transition into white nothingness, like you're ending where you started, with nothing. Cheers!

Really cool graphics and music! It seemed like the music fell out of sync with the rhythm you have to press the button a bit? I liked how the music changed over time!

Quite mesmerizing! I enjoyed the experience a lot. I found it surprisingly hard to follow the rhythm of the circles, sometimes they seemed to be slightly out of sync with the rhythm of the music. (The second time I played it felt way easier.) I really liked the visuals! The visual feedback was very nice when pressing a button at the right moment, but the corresponding sound I liked less. I enjoyed the musical build up. I also liked that there is no way to fail/die, when you miss a beat you just take 1 step back, and then you can continue again. :slight_smile:

Very well done! :smile:

Nice rhythm game! The graphics and the music building up makes you hooked until the end. The beat felt a little out of sync so I had to heavily rely on visual cues (I think you should press the button when the beat starts). Other than that, I enjoyed it!

Funny game and feat with the theme :) If i can propose an idea, it could be cool to continue the game with cycles , I gonna explain myself : When the game becomes white, maybe it could start with a new cycle with another beat effect and beat sound and different intensity for example. Nice work !

Well- that was short! But at least you clearly put some work into the effects that are present; it looks nice. I definitely feel like you could've expanded on this and brought in more various button presses and melodies, would've been very interesting. Nice job though!

Loved the little tune you had in this game! Do you have any plans to upload that to Soundcloud or anything? I'd love to listen to it in it's entirety :)

It doesn't feel like a game on a computer, but it would have been amazing on a phone. Tapping on the screen in rhythm, eyes closed, music beating in your head. Yeahhhh :smile:

First perfect score for theme --this was a really fantastic entry, and knew exactly what scope it wanted to be.

Great Idea for an entry though does not really fit the theme too well. I understand the song starts with nothing but you have no control over how you progress other than one button so it feels like it doesnt fit well with the theme. The song itself is decent though Im sure if you had more time to make a better song it would have been a great little entry. Well done!

I really liked the experience, great job!

@conduit I'm glad you liked it! I just uploaded it to Soundcloud : https://soundcloud.com/vyndilis

I like the song, this feels just like one of those relaxing android games to play!

brokenmirrormedia 2019-10-28 07:59

It was an interesting little game, I liked the music, and once I could hear the beat it was quite relaxing to just tap along. I wish there was a bit more to the game than that, but it wasn't bad at all. Good work!
