Cool one. Curious about why up is not mapped to up arrow and down to down arrow ? that confused me xD The idea of disappering notes is really good and works well with the little ghost.

I had a real good time with this one, nicely done where the music was the hero. Loved your theme song and I thought the fading out ghost was a nice touch :)

Dungeon pulseAs stupid as this sounds, I spammed my arrow keys and easily breeze through the game without caring about the combos. I like the music, although it feels like the audio cues are not essential for gameplay and leaning more on the visuals.

Morse Code Machine PracticeAwesome rhythm game! Would love to see a high score system, and maybe being rewarded for more precise timing (like a "perfect" vs a "good" on each note). Well done though!

The Echo ExperimentGreat rhythm game, loved the art with clear red/white colours, and the additional complexity of the monsters fading.
Don't know how to rate "How essential were the audio cues to the gameplay" for this one, as it was possible to play through even without any sound, but all the rest categories are great!

Fried PigeonNice! Might be good to show a results screen at the end to give feedback on how well you played or how many were missed. I liked the ghost section. Would've been nice to see more of that. Really great entry!

Play By EarI want more, I don't care if the round is over. Please make more, literally after the 3rd note I was just hooked. Such a good music track. Also reallly love the art and what you did with the end of the song!!

Fire, Crackle, SwordYay Rhythm game! I found this fun an easy to play, once I got the timing down. Very nice for 2 weeks of work! If I had a couple of suggestions it would be to 1) start with a slower, easier song and ramp up from there. The first track got pretty hectic! 2) I'd echo that the controls should be up/down to match the visual layout. Cool game!

Cat Burglar!Very simple, but fun rhythm game! My feedback is that I would prefer having the key bindings be top-bottom (for example W and S), not left-right, because they didn't feel intuitive. Also, I could play most of the game without the audio, because all notes are visible on the screen (except the ghost ones, they are a really neat idea!). I love the concept of hitting enemies in rhythm, though. Very solid entry!

Hercules Hears HazardsNice clean art style. Timing felt great. I’m disappointed that it was so short, I want more. Fun little game. One minor thing I noticed is that you can just spam the buttons and hit all the notes. Overall great job.

Reel RhythmA simple idea very, very well executed. Great job! I could see this being top ten!

Mr. Monocle's Maniacal MayhemEnjoyed it a lot, the music is a bop. I love the amount of options provided too, just wish another control scheme was availible that had up/down bindings as I kept on forgetting which directions was top or bottom. The visuals are simple and clean, nice job.
