The graphics are really beautiful but i found out that i am unable to press the spacebar to the beat haha...

I found myself wishing for a bit of a louder beat in the music! The claps and missing low end seem a bit at odds with the visuals, IMO. But yes, the art is very nice, and I did win! The difficulty is nicely balanced.

Fun little rythm game with very nice visuals. It becomes super easy when you get a beat. I think mashing space to melody will bring more fun to this game.

Super cool game. I love the graphics and theme. Keep it up bro gj!

Really like the graphics and the songs sound solid too! The first time I booted up the game, I ran into some bug that prevented the music from playing which made it a little confusing lol. But I refreshed and it fixed it. I did struggle to press space to the beat, so I die pretty quick.

Never thought I'd want to play a game about a beetroot killing snails by dancing to a beat yet here I am. I took some time to jam to the title screen music too. I enjoyed playing this game. Good work.

Thank you for your entry.

At first I thought that it is unbeatable but then I get used to it. Really nicely done - nice graphic, nice music. :)

Thanks for sharing.

Great theme, loved the music and graphics.

Nice idea, i love games with rhythm based mechanics. Art style looks nicely. Good job. I am not sure it is a bug or feature, but seems that you cant attack after snails have been crawled too close to the hero.

Good little rythm game and it looks so nice! I struggled to hit the space bar to the beat, so the snails beat me good. :')

A very amusing concept and well presented also. It could maybe use a little audio feedback for damage and such. Other than that, great job!

Quite difficult but the music is great. I really like the post-processing effects on the sprites. It really adds to the aesthetic. My only feedback was that the game and beat feel really weighty, so the projectiles feel out of place with their relative weightlessness. Other than that, great job!

I just wish I was better at clicking to the rhythm so I could listen to the whole song XD Awesome work!

sheepycrunch 2020-04-21 11:03

Cool and enjoyable game! but I can't noticed when the snail comes up from top. Good job!

Great Visuals and audio. The sound track got me committed immediately, although I personalty experienced difficulty with timing my input to the visuals, they didn't seem to match the beat. Great charming package overall

Nice game, I'm not used to having to keep the beat _and_ concentrate on incoming enemies, so that was a nice challenge!

fishmasterino 2020-04-21 17:22

Very cool rythm game, and very original

janachumi 2020-04-21 21:32

I've played some game and this is my fav until now.

lucecyl 2020-04-22 02:14

Greeeat game! One of my favorites entries so far :) Nice work, so fun! Loved the rap beat!

snowirbis 2020-04-23 19:23

Wow I didn't expect that !

That's a great game, with a great song !

May be you could try to add some visual feedback like in other rythm games. For instance a green color if you are good and red if you are doing bad, and text like (Perfect - good - bad) every time you hit space

hugo-kieffer 2020-04-23 19:24

really cool visual and sound, a bit hard at first but that ok, good entry,good job!

neuronezero 2020-04-23 19:33

Nice original concept, good graphics and lyrics. The lyrics put you off the beat sometimes though... Beat could be more present also. Good game !

giulia 2020-04-23 20:34

Cool idea and original approach ! I think there's a delay...ore maybe I'm really bad at playing, but overall I like it!

macdoom 2020-04-23 20:43

Nice mix of genres! The shaders look super cool and the music is catchy. Great work!

blackgoku36 2020-04-23 22:36

Graphics are super cool! and game concept is nice too. Maybe the game could be stage/level based? so you aren't bombarded with snail continuously and give you change to look at your progress?

keanutah 2020-04-23 22:49

Really cool! I feel like the rhythm game aspect of it could have been tuned better, more feedback for onbeat/off-beat would be nice. Great graphics, fun music, excellent work!
