I love the visuals, they feel so polished! In the beginning I didnt understand that i had to place the new sounds on the timeline but then when i understood it was so cool!

That's a crazy good idea for a game, I wish there was a fully fleshed out version of the game because it was a blast! I can't think of any game combining music mixing and action like this. Very good game!

Super fun and addictive. Loved the combination of building up an attack pattern and a cool soundtrack.

Great creativity and enjoyment, it feels like it only needs so little polish to really reach another level, like not having to hold down Space or still being able to take damage when an enemy runs into you.

Very fun! It would be nice if there was a preview of how much space each instrument takes up.

Amazing! The level of polish here is really impressive. Seeing AND hearing my character get stronger is really cool and quite novel. I would totally play this more if it were expanded. If I had one nitpick it is that I would have liked the ability to replace an old track with a newer one so that I could upgrade from base beats to legendary ones. 

But wow, great game! Well done!

Cool concept of adding instruments to the looping track!

This was a lot of fun! I can really imagine a full game from this. The sounds are great, and the artwork is really cute and beautiful. My favorite enemy is the litte angry drum. :D

This game was such a good take on that crypt of the necro-dancer vibe! I loved making a tune and basically playing a bullet hell at the same time. I would say that I reached a point where I could not add more upgrades and I think that could have been a bug. Otherwise, great game!

Very polished and great use of the theme. Really nice art, and fun to play.

Lovely art, lovely audio, crazy polished for a game jam game. A slight irk I have is that I have no idea why my instrument can't be placed, I assume because it's too long and won't fit, but would be nice to have a visual aid for that.

Amazing game! Really solid entry.
Quick note, I might be being silly, but I was unable to open full screen and the 2 bottom lines were cropped by the browser, I only noticed I had those extra lines when I scrolled down.

Sorry about that. Rushing to the deadline and all :D. Fixable by using the zoom in your browser. ctrl+ / - in windows and command + /- on mac. Sometimes ctrl / command + scrollwheel works too.

Amazing! What afun idea and mechanic. I was almost to busy raving to the loop I created to pay attention to the enemies  XD

Submitted(+1)

I like the idea of combining several musical instruments to get diffrent damage and attack types. Also these arts are so incredible!

Submitted(+1)

I really like this! Combining the audio loops with shooting was super cool! Made it fun to position around the screen

Cool concept. Attractive. I had some issues with the character going off screen, but maybe that was just me.

Developer(+1)

We noticed some browser resolutions/dimensions caused the bottom of the game to be off your screen. But for anyone else who sees this you should be able to zoom out in your browser window and see the full game view!

Thanks for playing!

Thanks! Will try it again.
