The music ist amazing!

I really enjoyed this. Great music. Would have liked the timing to be clearer, maybe had the spacebar icon higher upon or more visible.

The game fits the theme and is fun to play. I enjoyed the music. Only complaint is that there should be a timing indicator (e.g. "too late", "too early", or maybe a visual indicator of when the beat will hit).

Amazing game and great music. Really fun and also very innovative. I would like to see a game with this an expanded version of this concept. I was always too afraid of making a rhythm game, but you made a really good one with a twist in it. I made it to 4:11 although I think at that point the music may have become offset with the timings. I already had to play with 150ms offset. Also, you can just stay on one side and basically no logs will hit you then (when you keep the rowing up).

Great game and nice music. I usually really suck at rhythm games so I hate them, but this one was actually fun to play. I really struggled with the rhythm, then I calibrated and it worked flawlessly. The art looks nice and the music is great.

Really fun game. I enjoyed the vibe :) Took me a while before I noticed I should 'row with the flow' instead of just smashing the space bar furiously xD

Nice work! This was a lot of fun :)

It was straightforward and really easy to play which was great - didn't have any trouble understanding the goal. The music was really catchy and had a clear beat which definitely helped with the gameplay.

I did notice that if I hugged the wall, I didn't really get hit by many obstacles and so didn't need to steer very much. Maybe in the future, you can add different sections of the river that have a stronger tide (and weaker tide) which could encourage the player to move sideways more.

Overall, great job! This is a perfect scope for a jam game!

I love that you had the forethought to include the calibration page, it's great for accessibility and really above and beyond what I'd typically expect to see in a jam.

The sound track is pretty groovy. The game has a good vibe :smiley:

I'm terrible at rhythm games, but I enjoyed playing it and grooved to the music!

Wow! Cool! I am very bad at hitting the beat. But here I was able to do so quite well. Great music! Nice graphics! Congratulations for the fun game!

great to see a rhythm-based game entry! :heart: ...though I didn't row very long :sweat_smile:

Ah yes, a music game - my mortal enemy :P Cool game, what a shame I'm bad at this. You had no idea how much focus was needed from my to pull off this time XD Awesome music. It was fun!
