I really like the overall feel of this game.  Looks amazing!

I found. I bonded. I jammed!!

Great update to your initial entry. I had a great time with this, but I am disappointed you took away my ability to breakdance! And would love to have the rhythm section mini-game keys be on opposite sides of the keyboard, but maybe that's just my brain. Great work.

Submitted

first a spongebob reference, now a pinky and the brain reference? lol I liked the whole mentoring thing that could be explored in future, got a lot of potential for story. I'm personally not a fan of quizzes haha so wasn't enthusiastic about the goal but amazing music, great concept, lovely visuals and full of character!

Submitted

Really enjoyed it, loved the Pinky & Brain reference! 

Liking the improvements from v1, got some more dope tracks in there and didn't expect a wild guitar hero to appear! The dialog system is clean, smooth and fluid. For the quiz portion I would add a secondary button to confirm the selection or maybe a click to select - sometimes I would hit space by accident on the wrong answers. Can't wait to see the next round!

This game is nice! I love the music and the atmosphere! Good job!

You picked some really good music, and I really like the little talking sound haha. I also love the names of the npcs, and the story is great!! Literally love this game so much!

Submitted

Love seeing the continuation from your round 1 entry, and a natural continuation at that! Fun focus around the music in interacting with the combat guy, only thing was that the timing on the rhythm minigame felt a little bit off to me. Overall though, really awesome!

Submitted

Super great game! Still love the art style and the music and sfxs are amazing. I also loved all the dialogue and the fun rhythm mini-game was a nice addition 

Submitted

loved it! and i liked how you actually had to remember the things you read on the jukeboxes 

Submitted

Still a great vibe. I loved the conversation and mini-game part with the combat director that was tied into the songs.

Submitted

Very well put together, feels like a complete game.

Thanks! Were you able to convince the combat director to like you?

Submitted

A chill atmosphere with great tracks sprinkled in privacy (I could poo in peace in EVERY Js' room!)

The voiceover was cute.

Enjoyed the call to the artists, as well as your experimentation with the shooting, I could shoot outside to space, seems the walls need some maintenance.

The story I got was "a peaceful moment/waiting for the next adventure". This was reinforced with lore, and even the shooting training mechanic.

Sound was used to tell this story, with personal touches. You also continued the previous submission, which gives more continuation to your universe for players that played both.

I was expecting a more sound based mechanic, but this is my first rating so I will be sure to revisit and adjust, overall a nice entry CJ, well done!

Thanks for all the great feedback! I fear I have messed up with setting the goal of the game 😭


Wondering did you convince the Combat Director to like you 🤔

Submitted(+1)

I don't think I did? May have missed that. Didnt realise there were extra interactions!

Developer(+1)

If you have time try and convince the Combat Director to like you. You'll know when you do and its a pretty cool surprise imo.

I feel like a poser, "love that $#!t"

nice little minigame don't know how I missed it the first time!
