Very nice visual style! Minimalistic and very enjoyable gameplay due to the great music!

cafearatus 2024-10-07 22:43

Thank you @sid37 :) Glad to hear you enjoyed it!

I really like the concept for this game and how art blends with it. Cool game guys!

cafearatus 2024-10-07 23:40

Thanks @sted !! :)

Great art direction! Too bad you couldn't finish it in time... Love the music and the cute Papufels. Did you record the sounds yourself?

cafearatus 2024-10-07 23:49

Thank you @killofox ! Yes, I made the music :) I wish I could've done more with the audio modulation thing I coded but I didn't have time to compose more music, I will for sure use the real-time stem sync/mix thing in the future now that I have it :D

A very cool game! I saw about this game in the Ludum dare news and at the very beginning I couldn't even imagine that this game would be about... Music! I'm not talking about the music in the game at all, it's great! I was very surprised.

This is more of a tech demo, but a quite good one! Leaves me wanting for more.

mitsukoy 2024-10-08 12:05

I really like the concept, i would enjoy playing the full game once finished !!

derllie 2024-10-08 17:59

MUSIC IS EVERYTHING, ATMOSPHERE IS TOO, I LOVE IT SO SO MUCH!

kirass 2024-10-08 18:00

This game is so cool! I loved it!

cafearatus 2024-10-08 18:03

Thank you so much for your kind words! :) I feel so inspired to continue working on it!

Awesome game, browser version was pretty choppy but the download worked great. Music and visuals were excellent, and a unique mechanic for sure. Excellent work!

ownedstuff 2024-10-08 18:07

the song is good!

firefalls 2024-10-08 18:10

Such a cool tech demo! I can't wait to see what comes next - I assume punishment for aggressing the creatures? The horror vibes from the art certainly lend itself to the creepy musical atmosphere!

angioop 2024-10-08 18:15

Awesome demo, love the idea of balancing energy and aggression. Great start to a game.

stames 2024-10-08 18:20

The game looks and feels very nice and it is a nice new mechanic I haven't seen so far :-)

cafearatus 2024-10-08 18:25

Thank you all so much!! <3 Yeah @jared-saizdelamora the WebGL build is a bit janky, I was surprised that it worked at all considering that my plan was to only build it as a downloadable but then made the last-minute decision to build the web version for ease of access :laughing: Thanks for playing!

@firefalls thanks! Yes, I was thinking about making it very unhinged and creepy if the aggression develops too much :smile: It'll definitely lean heavily into the cute-horror-spectrum :D

hurp 2024-10-10 15:52

Music is nice, kept me jamming

obidiix-minusinfinity 2024-10-10 20:53

I really like the concept, the characters have a really good design and the tracks are very well made, the only complain I have it's that there isn't much to do (or at least I felt like it), also there's this percusion track I don't remember the name of that sounds kind of delayed from the rest. Very good game/idea

cafearatus 2024-10-10 22:33

Thanks! @hurp Thank you @obidiix-minusinfinity yeah, I wish I had time to do more during the jam :smile: I will probably develop it into a full game at some point. I noticed that latency too especially if you trigger many instruments simultaneously or play the web version some of them can be a bit off-beat :sweat_smile: Thanks for the feedback!

nazariglez 2024-10-11 09:59

I love the concept, and the music mechanics are really engaging! The art style and color palette give me a great cyberpunk vibe that fits the atmosphere perfectly. The mix of visuals and sound creates an immersive experience, I am really excited to see where this goes. Gj!

cafearatus 2024-10-11 14:35

Thank you so much, @nazariglez :smile:

shir0o23 2024-10-12 11:07

great music and artstyle, only adds to the game's enjoyment

cafearatus 2024-10-12 14:01

Thank you @shir0o23 :smile:

renier 2024-10-13 02:29

Very cool idea liked the music and visuals!

pachino55 2024-10-14 04:32

The music in this is very cool, very nice job

ninjavitis 2024-10-15 06:08

Very impressive visuals! Really enjoyed the retro industrial vibe.

I almost missed the animations of the Papufels though, since I didn't originally realize you could back out of the control panel. It would have been a shame!

sasha20 2024-10-15 18:49

The game presents a fresh perspective on the theme, and the aesthetics are pleasing to the eye. God Job!

andriana-mantidfly 2024-10-16 03:31

The game looks very stylish and promising, it seems to me that if it is completed it will be a very good product that it is not a pity to even commercially promote.

cafearatus 2024-10-17 17:41

Thanks so much, everyone! :smile: Oh, that's so good to know that those can easily be missed @ninjavitis . I gotta make an indicator for it when I continue developing it! I'm so glad to hear that you all liked it :smile:

landberglife 2024-10-18 19:13

Extremely pleasant visuals and audio, it created a great mood. I was very confused on how to progress until i read your description. Even if the game-loop was not finished it was still a very impressive entry via the visuals and audio alone, verry well done!

creeper-nade 2024-10-24 15:37

Wow! I can feel that you've put a lot of effort into the music!!!
