Loved disigh(and godot)! Good work!

Loved the aesthetics! The music and the sound effects combined get a bit chaotic, though. The gameplay was simple but addictive and fun. Good work!

Thank you very much for your feedback :-) The music for me was the hardest part, so in the end it still kinda sucked, so I'm totally on your side with that chaotic sound of the game :-D

Very good design, super smooth. Is there an end to the game or do difficulty go up until the player loses ?

Extremely charming! This one was a lot of fun to play. I appreciate the music and sound effects, as a lot of entries don't have them. The animations were fun and reactive, way more professional than what I was expecting!

Overall definitely one of my favorites!

If you'd like, come check out my game!

Hi Avis!

Thank you for your feedback :-) Going to check out yours aswell of course!

Gameplay is simple (a game like this doesn't need more) but visuals are top notch, congratulations!

I had a good time playing it.

Looks amazing, and super cute!! The gameplay got a bit repetitive after a while, but obviously that's to be expected for a jam build. Awesome job!! :)

That screen panning looked too smooth to not have sub-pixel movement, but when I looked really closely I didn't see a single frame that broke from the 84x48 resolution. Props for keeping everything within the restrictions.

The presentation was very well don. The visuals looked pretty good by Nokia standards, and the movement of the zombies looked really smooth for something at such a small resolution. 

The music was okay, but I expected a bit more from a game themed around dancing. I would've loved to see a rhythm element in this game, with the commands being in sync with the music. These types of memory games have never really been able to hold my interest for very long, but that would've kept this game from getting stale for way longer. 

This game has some fun theming on top of the simple memory game at its core, and is good for a few minutes of entertainment. Great submission.

Amazing visuals! The game mechanic is simple and fun, the sound and visuals underline the gameplay very well! I don't seem to be very good at it though (summoned 10 zombies) :D

Solid, well made game! Liked the art very much!

I feel like there was a problem with the audio, the music didn't sound right as if it was bugging, or lagging of some kind, Maybe that was just the style of the music but it really didn't feel right.

Apart from that, great memory game!

The visuals are amazing, and the gameplay it done well, but...

But after like 20 summoned zombies it becomes boring, since the difficulty stops rising.

Overall, had fun, great game. Maybe, you could increase the difficulty a bit more, by speeding the game up over time? Nonetheless, I enjoyed playing playing it. :)
