Cool dance game with an added twist that is very on point for the theme!

Wow, overall that was a really cool game. The beginning part where I was trying to find the robots was kind of annoying, but the end part where I was syncing them was AWESOME! Love the concept. And the music was great!
@grandtheftmarmot Part of it was user error. I found the first robot early but was hitting the wrong key. The most frustrating part about finding them was not realizing that there was a patch of ground that I could walk on on the right side of the map that led around the cliffs between the water and the cliffs. Perhaps a little wider path there would have helped or maybe making the water only in the middle and putting a more obvious barrier on the edges like cliffs.
It also wasn't clear what water I could walk on and which may have just been some interaction with the beam of the flashlight. The other thing that happened was that I thought the syncing was something that I had to do early instead of just finding the robots kind of early so I kept toggling them on and off and trying to match them up with background music, but I think having the option to toggle them on and off in the beginning wasn't that useful.
I love this game so much. It is hilarious, and it seems so real. The comments are funny, and I like all of the different variations in rules. Try as I could, I unfortunately couldn't beat the channels 4 and 5. They were just too hard. The graphics are perfect for the style and humor. I also love the way that the title is a play on words but also still fits the theme. Way to go!
The music is great, and it is super cute. I especially love the cute sound effects when you throw the balloon. I got past several levels but it started getting a little bit too hard at the end.
I really like the multi-genre spanning. It definitely has the beginnings of a cool (possibly multiplayer) game. Was there music? If so, I didn't hear any. I also think it would be interesting to add some kind of obstacles or something for the flying of the ship. Initially I tried to avoid everything.
I really like the physics of the balloon. This was really fun to play. I think this would be a great mobile game.
This was a really fun game. I liked all of the things that you had to do to save the tree, and it was really fun to make a little bit more progress each time until I finally beat it.
Keep the party alive! This game is so fun, and I love the music. It's hectic trying to play the music and keep everyone happy at once. I love the silly animations and it is very satisfying to DJ. I haven't quite made it to the end of the night, but I will try again soon.
That was pretty fun to play through. The moving platforms made it complicated, and I liked the sneaky block. I love the guitar music and the sound effects. I kept dying time after time just so that I could hear all of the dying sound effects.
The game has some interesting challenges. I couldn't quite figure out the physics of where I was allowed to put down the bowl and where I wasn't. I like that it was broken down into simple levels. I was kind of wishing the bowl would fall slower so I could like drop it and click and have to catch it again.
That was really fun. I am not very good and so kept hitting the evil butters, but I think it would be a really fantastic mobile game! Maybe that could be next!
Overall quite a fun game. I loved the music, and I was sad when the dog level didn't have any. I also really liked the random aspect. If I were to add one thing it would be a restart level feature. I got forced into a corner by the dogs with no way to die. Eventually, I jumped around enough in that one square that it fell away under me, but otherwise I would have had to restart from the beginning. After it happened a second time, I decided it would take too long to die so I moved on.
Great work!
@fadoli03 @landosystems Thanks for the feedback! I added a hint to the game description above. We were planning on adding an extra sound effect to make it more obvious but ran out of time.
