I think other people mentioned it, but I do wish the beats were more aligned to the music. Felt more like a visual test than a rhythm game because of it. But I like the theme and the stress of enemies eating away at your heart while you have to focus on the song. With some polish, could be a fun game!

I didn't manage to win this game. I just lost every time after a few seconds -> even if i hitted the heartbeat to every one of the incoming pulses from left or right. Do I missunderstood something? Should I press to the beat more than the incoming heartbeats?
But I like the idea, and fits the theme very well :)
You nailed the theme and the game has potential! Right now it is just a little too hard for me to stay on rythm
The web version was easier :p
PC version played, but the notes was a bit out of sync.
The concept could be fun with the right implementation. Tightness in the notes is pretty important in rhytmic games.
But audio sync is difficult, i know :)
Managed to play it on windows
Fun beat XD
I don't really understand why sometimes the monsters didn't get removed after doing a correct beat?
You already wrote that the game doesn't work in web. I downloaded and tried it, though! Unfortunately I did not know what I need to do... you wrote that the 'correct' arrow key needs to be pressed, however, for me no arrow key was shown and I then lost and just got frustrated. Still, the theme fits perfectly as well as the colors! The gameplay and fun sadly are not that well.
