I can see the vision, it's a really cool concept, and it's a shame you had to leave a lot out of it, but what is there shines and looks great. I am definitely looking forward to future 3D projects, you've shown a lot of talent in that regard. This is probably the strongest demonstration of musical modes as a theme for this jam that I've played, at least. Great job!

I had a hard time working with camera. I liked the design and storytelling of the game. I giggled when I read Musk instead of Music. This was a really ambitious game and I can't wait to see more of it. Great Job guys!

It is promising , but the camera controls keep getting clipping through was frustrating in my opinion , the cats that opened the doors were also hard to control. It can be fun with little tweaks.

This is a really cool concept, and the puzzles were pretty clever in the section I was able to play! However, I wasn't able to reach what I assume is the end point of the first level with the big circular staircase, I couldn't walk or jump up them from any direction. I hope I'm just missing something there and it's not a bug preventing progress, because from the looks of the screenshots there's at least one more level built! I did also find the camera a bit unwieldy, it often got blocked by tall decorative objects. Overall though, great work!

I like the idea and the aesthetics. The puzzles were fun and atmosphere was relaxing. Unforntunately I couldn't get to the top of the big stairs. Looking at the sandbox mode, this game looks very ambitious with the different instruments. But the camera kept clipping through the upper floors and the levers weren't clear when they were activated. Overall a good game, well done!

Looks and sounds really great and polished, and the concept of controlling your surroundings with music is quite interesting. Got frustrated at the very beginning and almost quit immediately, as I had no clue, what exactly to do to flip the first switch, but after that first obstacle it became an interesting puzzle. Unfortunately could not progress further after like 4-5 doors, as there seemed to be some kind of bug, where one of the cats was stuck in the water, even after resetting the section twice. Or it was another puzzle, and I did not realize that lol
