very cool game and loved the graphics!

Cool game! It's also very stylish and the design is somewhat hypnotizing, so I felt kinda relaxed while playing. Nice job!

Very interesting game! Unfortunately it isn't very out of control.

Quite a unique rhythm game. I'm awful at these so I couldn't really get past the addition of a second colour but it was a good time, and really really nice presentation!

I loved the harp sounds when you pressed correctly! Hmm...  I feel like visual cues are not as easy to follow as audio cues (which is why music/rhythm games have a soundtrack you're trying to follow), so I might've been a bit more lenient on the timing. 

I also felt like the alternating between two colors was a really cool idea, but it only appeared fairly late in the game (10th level, after which i got stuck), I think it'd be fun to introduce it earlier. Visually the game is very fun, with the people jumping around at the beat, and the audio is a really nice feedback. The game also felt nice to control. Great job!

Kinda challenging - I like it!

Nice concept, it's pretty fun, also i loved the art style

It is very prety and original, so satisfying to see how the world is getting bigger =D

Your how to menu talks about pressing W and pressing B. However, the player has to click with the mouse on the white square. This is very confusing, and I had already stopped playing once I saw the gif that is only visible on this page. Then I tried again, and managed a highscore of 8.

this is a really cute game and the feedback is sooo good! it feels really great to play, but for some reason im too bad at it to get over 3 layers in the highscore. loved it regardless!

What a charming little game :)! It has nice feedback and feels rewarding. It is a little hard to look at (watch the pulse) sometimes. But I really like the take on the highscore games - how in this one you never really die! Well done :).

pretty nice concept, althought the game gets boring after a while.

The visual and sound effects make the game so captivating and satisfying!
Sadly the mechanic is very weak and doesn't fit the theme in my opinion.

This game is really fun! The visuals are interesting and it looks really nice when the blue layers come in --- though at that point the controls get tricky. The audio also works really well with the gameplay, and could possible play a more prominent role.

With that said, I don't think this fits the theme very closely.

The game looks like it would be great on mobile, but its hard to move the mouse precisely while focusing on the center of the screen. Maybe using keys instead of the mouse for the pc version would work better. The game itself is very appealling audio-visually (I loved the little flips the people do when you succesfully tap their world) and I can definetly see myself playing it on my phone to waste some time. Not quite sure how well it reflects the theme however, but great job overall.

It's a wonderfully simple game. The audio, together with the visuals create an incredibly hipnotic game. really like it, great job!

First of all, your game is really fun!

It feels really satisfying to click because of the animation and the sounds. The styling in general is really nice!

However, I needed a little bit of time to figure the mechanics out.
For everyone else: You have to click the button every time the orange square is as big as one of the white squares. If you timed it right every time, another square is added. Later on, there are other colors so you have to click the right button.

Fun! I like the discordant sounds and that it keeps rotating! The input was difficult though - keyboard didn't work, and tapping the trackpad also wasn't great. If it was easier to input commands, I would still be playing it!
