I added a mechanic I call "Gravizando", being a mix of the words gravity and sforzando. It's a sudden, loud burst of sound waves which impact the gravity of enemies it hits, sending them flying into the air.

Good start. I included it in my Mini Jam 107 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

I like the Gravizando mechanic, and having it be placed with the mouse cursor really helps with making things feel just about manageable. The melee attack felt a bit off in terms of the hit boxes, and I had to learn to stand further from enemies than I originally thought I needed to.

In terms of the music sphere that's being attacked, was there a way to see how damaged it is, or how close it is to being destroyed? I thought it was indicated by the note type, but below I see you mention that it indicates how close you are to getting to the next stage (a very cool indicator, by the way!).

Overall, it was a fun game, though I got overwhelmed when the slime guys started showing up!

A simple game but with a good concept. The "Gravizando" mechanic is a very clever idea to mix the theme and constraint. The style and animation of the player is really cool too :D

It was fun to play, good job!

I really love the art and animation in this game. The game play is also pretty solid. However, I'm stuck on how I can progress the game to the later stages. I would like to know if possible. Awesome job!

Admittedly, progression isn't as clear as I could've made it lol. Whenever an enemy dies, they spawn white particles that fly towards the Song Orb in the center of the map. As you defeat more enemies, the sixteenth note in the orb will turn into a quarter note, then half note, and finally to a whole note upon level completion. Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it!
