This game was hard on my space button, but totally worth it! Amazing art and music. I managed to knock out that big bad fish at the end, but the water-lily path was so tricky I just couldn't reach my crown. I loved this one, anyway. Thank you for making it!

I really liked the concept of the game, but having to wait in a movement based rhythm game felt kinda off. Also got kind of annoyed at how you lost your bees when you fell into the water, made me go back every time.

Good game, great visuals. I just wish the game didn't feel clunky. Rather than that it's a very cool game and concept. I enjoyed it. Good work. 👍

Interesting game. Maybe there's some clunkiness sometimes, but overall it was quite fun!

One thing I'm loving in this game jam is that I can play a lot of games that I love in a different way. And this is one of those games! Man, I love Crypt of the Necrodancer, and this submision is great! The music and art were really good, and I liked how you implemented the mechanics!
I only had trouble with the bees. I couldn't see a pattern of where they were flying, and I ended up passing through the snakes. Maybe the frog's like is not working...
But overall, this is a great game! I would love to see more of it. And more platform games with rythm mechanics!

I was very impressed with the sound design and art! However, the controls say "space to shoot bees" but space did nothing for me, even near the bees. I was not able to shoot and could pass through snakes sometimes. Other than that, I had a really fun time trying to time my hops to get over the lily pads! Great job!

Nice entry! It's a very interesting game mixing necromancer with 2D!

I don't know if is a bug but, I can pass through the snake, also the life isn't working (?)

Btw, good concept and nice result! :)

Nice entry, the art is gorgeous and the music is catchy. The only thing I have to complain about is that the movement doesn't react sometimes, and you can get through most of the enemy's by simply walking against them.

Never played a rhythm game before, allot of fun for sure, well done :D

Quite the interesting use of the crypt of the necrodancer mechanics, gotta say so far this one is my #1 in terms of creative use of an mechanic in another dimension :)

The art + soundtrack of the game are also really good :) 

To give some feedback too, I am not sure if that was intended but i sometimes was able to move over a snake when i just jumped enough also how to taking in the bee confused me a bit since i jumped ahead and only saw the info with space, which caused me to click space which killed the bees initially, maybe something to improve upon :)

Overall great result given the limited timeframe :)

Great use of the theme. I'm a big fan of temp games, unfortunately the audio wasn't coming through on my browser. Nice concept, still felt like a full game even with only 1-dimension.

We're sorry to hear that, since the sound is such a big part of our game. Make sure to follow the project, we will release Windows and Mac versions when we can, as well.
