I liked the concept, it was fun to hit the drumpads and symbols. Sounded really good. Not sure why, but the note and walls of the well didn't seem to visually fit together.

Nice to see a music game! I like the mood and the main character has a lot of personnality. I think the animation of the note is overdone, I find it hard to know precisely where you are on the screen and a bit hard on the eye. I liked the little gameover music. Nice job!

OSX version maybe?

Well done very unique one thing though I must agree next time turn down the animation otherwise a lovely game and you should be very proud of yourself!

Interesting idea with nice sound design. The character changing sizes made it hard to control I feel. Would be cool if the effect was more subtle.

I like the concept and the music. I found the caracter expanding and shrinking a bit nauseating thought. But still great job!

Cool concept, I've been making a rhythm game recently and know the struggle! I found this article very useful https://gamasutra.com/blogs/GrahamTattersall/20190515/342454/Coding_to_the_Beat__Under_the_Hood_of_a_Rhythm_Game_in_Unity.php

I didn't have much of an idea what was going on, but the sound was cool, and nice little riff to finish.

Cool concept, it's like a reverse guitar hero! It gets pretty heart bumping and intense the faster the bpm! Would love to see a version like you envisioned with a whole song, could have each song be a unique course with different obstacles. And I love the character is a note :D. Nice job!

The mechanic was original but i would avoid the scale note animation

It's different indeed, however I was worried about how fast you were going there with your drums. You okay!? You need me to call a doctor!? Anyway, good idea!

I've tried making rhythm games. They can be very hard sometimes. I liked the mecanics of the game and getting the highest score is fun. I found the music a bit too erratic at the higher tempos and i find the tempo change a bit too random. The note itself gets a bit too big, which seems a bit wierd. Presentation is very good however.

Ahh yesss. I love me some music games!

I really liked the fact that the BPM increases with the score. But arrived at around 400Bpm, the physics becomes buggy and we can go through the platforms. Very good game anyway
