I loved the design of the various characters, and I liked the gimmick mechanic you added to each one. (My personal favorite wound up being the Skull Boys: they were adorable, and I loved how their animations really brought them to life!) It was a generally simple game, though, so I found myself not needing to use the character's special abilities that often.  Like some other people mentioned, I think some more animation and different music could have added a lot. Since it was a band/music based game, I think adding more background tracks in particular could have been interesting. 

It was a fun game over all, and I found myself very quickly racking up level after level!

Developer

thanks for playing I'll try and add more tracks

Cute game and super fun gameplay. It would be nice with some animation and more sound FX. The character designs and the enemy look cute and I like the art style. A bit nit picky side, the alien girl's invisibility effect feels a bit unclear on when it starts/ends (due to the light not having enough contrast with the background). But overall it's a good game :)

Developer

thanks for the feedback we'll try and do that, and I will increase the light of the alien girl

Got to 18 wins or maybe 19...great game and I liked that duo character the most lol. they were cool.

the abilities and character variety was great. maybe add some boss kind of enemy later?(if you decide to continue this project) that would be fun.

well done to your team.

we planned to have more unique enemies but couldn't due to time constraints, maybe we can add them later but thanks for playing

It's got a lot of potential. I really liked the concept, the pace of it and the use of the theme. After a few rounds the lack of juice in the feedback made it hard to feel excited about what was taking place. Animation, particles, thuds etc would all go a long way. It just ended up feeling very flat, and that was a shame because it could be quite a lot of fun. I really liked the art too.

Developer

thanks for playing and for the feedback I'll definitely try to add those

The visual elements are good but can be improved. It's kinda repetitive and it prevents you from enjoying the game fully. The characters' variety is great and all. Small note: they should add some character animations since they look a little static.

Developer

thanks we will try that

The character sprites are super cute. Alien girl is best waifu all the way!! I think the meele attack could do with a little more feedback, maybe a punching sound could do the trick.

Developer

thanks for playing we'll try and do that

The gameplay feels rough and probably requires a lot of polishing. To me, it looks like a good starting point that could become a really cool game with some work on the feedbacks. Hope this week of polishing helps you out because I would really like to see it after :)

Developer(+1)

thanks for the review what do you recommend we do during polishing week to make the game not so rough?

Well that was short and fun :D I must say the character designs are really cool :O And each characther having diffrent ability makes the game more interesting.

Sadly this game lacks visual and audio feedback :/ All characters should have an attack sprite or animation i didnt understand if i attacked the enemies or not. Also sound effects for enemies dying,attacking,using specials is essential for this type of game.

Overall this was a fun little game congrats for making it nice job :D

Developer

we did intend to add attack sprites and sound effects but we ran out of time, hopefully we can get the attack sprites in for polishing but thanks for playing

Solid game, it could do with more sound effects though and maybe different level backgrounds but good work! :)
