Nice rhythm game! I included it in my Touhou Jam 5 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

很容易上手(大误)

I am not sure if I am the only person encountering this problem. There are no digits (e.g., progress and miss rates) displayed on my screen. Maybe it is just my computer's problem.

Apart from it, the game itself is an interesting rhythm game with several new ideas, although quite difficult for me. And the art looks cute.

Developer

Thank you for your playing!You can install the font to solve it,the ttf has already packed in the game folder.

Great music, cute graphics, and I feel sorry for poor Kaguya :D

The sections with a lot of bamboo at once are too hard. >_<

Cute game! But I think the controls need changing. Really difficult to keep in rhythm when you need to move up and down on the arrow keys so much. I think it would be better if you aimed at the bamboo using the mouse, then all focus of the rhythm would be on the left hand. 

Reminds me a lot of rhythm heaven, so maybe even doing swipes with the mouse at the bamboo instead of pressing keys could have been even better!

Presentation and audio is great, although there was a slight desync between the visual and audio when playing the game. 

I have to be frank, I can't play this. It's way too much stuff to keep in mind and the game is too fast for me to play it. If there was an easier setting so I could actually play it, that would be great.

Visuals are great thou, and the music is pretty good.

Impressive for an RPG Maker XP title to be sure, but just way too difficult .

The game seems to be running at a very low FPS which makes everything look stuttering. It hurts a lot when it comes to rhythm games as they are strict on timings. Art looks well individually though.

In terms of gameplay, it gets a bit unfair later on as I don't really have enough time to move the cursor to the right position for a few notes. And again, the stuttering also affects the control quite a bit. If this can run at 60 fps smoothly I guess it's going to be a completely different story. But overall I think it's a solid design that is fairly challenging.

I don't know if it was just instruments but sound quality seemed quite low even for free assets, and the volume suddenly went up in the middle. As a rhythm game you may need something better, but for a 3-day jam I think it's okay.

Submitted

It's a vary interesting game! 就是对我来说有点难╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

I like rythm games I just think that maybe stage 4 is a bit too hard, but otherwise great :3

Submitted

I can't open the game, it says that the rar can't be opened as an archive.

I love the art! I hope I can play soon!

Developer
