This game is a really good concept, but I think it ramps up quite fast and makes it a tad impossible to play without the button mash strategy, which kills the gameplay a tiny bit. I really liked the music you get at the end when you finish (win?) and the plot was funny. Overall pretty awesome game!
As others have said, the lack of mash-prevention means firing all cylinders at maximum rate of fire at the expense of your tendons is an optimal strategy. Honestly it's probably for the better cause good grief can things ramp up fast! Spamming down the endless cirnos with their duck noises is good fun though - it made for a fun laugh!
The balancing aside, the concept was fair, the art was nice, and the music was really good too! Solid jam game all around. It's funny to think about how the average jam game is up to, if not greater than, the quality of the average newgrounds flash of yesteryear, which were under no tight time restraints!
There is no mash prevention, so I "won" by just spamming all the inputs. It would have been really difficult otherwise. I have no idea how I would have had time to use the heal (trying to use it is what killed me).
Yeah I see how that could have turned into a rhythm game.
But I think how the game is right now isn't so bad, it's a mashing endurance test right?
Well it has to be, there's no cooldown on the key presses so that's what I did: mashing.
Until I hit 1000 Cirnos. So yes it seems to be an endless game.
Really liking the guitar-based soundtrack, they seem to be homemade. I really didn't expect a different Results song and message when I gave up after the 1000, very nice details!
It's always great to see games featuring Letty.
Basically, you protect your snowmen by shooting down Cirno(?).
Nice.
Holy crap this game ramps up FAST. Cirno and Suika are NOT messing around.
The gameplay concept is great and it definitely could've worked better as a full-fledged rhythm game yeah. I feel like the difficulty went crazy too fast, plus the number of keys you had to keep track of made actually using HEAL MODE kind of difficult.
Regardless it is AWESOME and BALLIN. The duck sounds made me IMMEDIATELY slam that 5/5 on Music & Audio. Keep on BALLIN
