enjoyed playing and great to see another music game in the submission!

Interesting take.  Liked the way it played but felt sometimes it was like all paths were blocked and had no choice but to hit something.  Might have been something where more time would allow me to see the minute paths, though.  Nice one.

Love love love the musical interpretation of the "scale" theme. I wanted to go this route but couldn't come up with any ideas. Great job!

Second game I saw with an installer and that is a big wall for people to try. Even webgl would be a better option.

First of all, a game jam game that comes with an installer? Not often seen in a game jam! Second I want to compliment this idea of creating some form of naturalistic music just by playing the game, instead of your adherence to the rhythm causing the music to play correctly, like in a lot of rhythm games. Sometimes with faster movements, the sounds that I felt were supposed to play did not. The game also gets pretty impossible pretty quickly but I enjoyed the time I played in it.

I shall look into the sounds not playing, as for the high speed of the game the idea was that after 100 score or so, the game leans more into your collection of powers and correct notes rather than fast hands. But I will include a more smooth/slower speed mode in the future.

Thanks for playing the game! I am happy to know you enjoyed it.
