Sadly I don't understand what I should do at this point and tried 8 times, even recorded my gameplay and looked at the footage but nope, I don't understand it. It doesn't feel intuitive what I should do here.

Amazing graphics and nice music. I really wouldn't call it a rhythm game though, it's based around music but you don't take action on the rhythm at all, at least the portion of the game I played wasn't played like that.

And permadeath for a gamejam probably will only prevent people to see the content you made. I don't think it's ideal for the gamejam. I don't think it would take anything away if you at least had a few more lives or smth for the sake of the jam.

Even though I didn't play it well, it's still one of the best entries in this jam. and it has great potential!!

That’s a great point, next time we should really pay more attention to the difficulty, but to be completely honest, we ran out of time haha, we really wanted to have lives and all, but doing permadeath was like, just three lines of code, so that’s why, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PLAYING tho, I think I speak for the team when I say that, we really appreciate the thought and care of your comment, if you just want to check out the cool visuals and the music to the end, I suggest you open the Map Editor and just hit play :) tbh it’s also cool just to see the thing play out even if it’s too hard (I certainly can’t play the game also lol, but normal and hard are tried and tested to be completable) :D have a great one

Yeah, I'm really sorry about that one laser, you have to move way later than you think and the window is tighter than it was supposed to be, especially for normal mode, thanks for playing the game tho!!!

yeah. maybe it's my dumbness but even with the explanation, I still can't see it.
if it's my dumbness, it's fine. but if more people find it unintuitive it might narrow down your audience(I feel like this is gonna be a commercial game ^^)

yep! more indication and better level design (hard Is about as difficult as normal except for its last bit ngl) I have high hopes for this game, sorry you're still struggling with that part tho, try hard, its easier to see more of the song that way ngl.
