How does the game fit the theme?
I believe that the game fits the team because any combination of drum samples you put into the grid can make something cohesive! nothing can go wrong in this tcg/music game hybrid!

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
code formatting and architecture was consulted with claude but was written by me

Fascinating idea that truly does lead to some interesting rhythms. Very hard to understand though. The idea of a DAW/beat engine that is also a game is intriguing!

Hi guys! working on a more stable version of the build!
probably gonna be released after the game jam officially ends!

It's incredible that you decided to make the menu buttons grow and shrink, and also innovate on the deck building genre.

I think the drum beats and hats need to be softer. It's doing something weird to my speakers and making them crackle.

Yeah I'm actually working on a build that has a audio mixer so atleast the audio samples are levelled more appropriately. but thanks for pointing it out and giving it a try!

This is a great idea, combining the drum kit with card game elements is really clever and I like how you can create rhythms while battling your enemies. Nice job!
