How does your game fit the theme?
Our approach interpret the word scale as meaning “of higher numbers or people”, so the whole phrase as taking player input and amplifying it in large numbers, then using them in a practical setting. As in “built for scaling”. While also thematically inspired by musical scales, we want players to build the choreography of the performers while factoring in the number and position of controllable players.

This is awesome! I how y'all did turn based combat and the visuals are excellent
Oh wow love the turn base combat. Atmosphere is nifty and music is just a bop to vibe to. Cool game yal.
Super interesting idea for a turn-based tactics game! I love the idea that you have to move all your units in the same way, it feels very dance-like. My only criticism is that the game is quite easy due to the swap move being really overpowered. Any dancer who is being attacked can just swap with an enemy and either cause the attack to miss completely or hit a different enemy instead. I was able to protect all my dancers and kill most of the enemies every turn using only 2 actions. I might be misunderstanding phase 5 but there were many times when my dancers didn't kill an enemy when I thought they were supposed to. The graphics are very nice. Overall, amazing entry!
The game being self explanatory I managed to play it without having to read the game’s description, well done on that. The feedbacks are clear, the actions are explained, its very nice. Plus the aesthetic is super cool. I just wish it was not an endless game because it turns a bit repetitive after some time, so I would have enjoyed a victory screen. Besides that it was a very nice experience. Congrats on your submission.
I like the turn-based battle game genre. It’s totally my type of game
Thank you so much!
I guess I used a translator, so it came with some weird writing…
Don't worry! I'll forget what you just wrote, haha~
What an awesome entry. A little overwhelmed at first but once it clicks its actually really fun. Love the music and overall aesthetic.
Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it
