What a fun take on the theme! This was such a fresh and unconventional experience, it almost felt like a mix between a rhythm game and a programming game somehow. I loved how everything could be controlled with one key (I mean, the menus are genious) and how the game tested both my reflexes and my brain in keeping track of when to go back and loop.
I also loved the BIOS vibe you gave with the graphics, really well done!
Thanks! Music and programming were two inspirations for this game, so it's cool that the vibe carried through. Given that the gameplay itself only needed one button, I didn't want to require the use of more buttons purely for menuing. so I just did what felt like the most natural thing for the interface there.
I wasn't specifically intending a BIOS vibe with the graphics, but I'm happy to see you liked it! The artstyle was mostly just chosen to be readable and easy to implement. The relatively retro-looking font was just the monospace font (so that it would be easy to reason about what text would and wouldn't fit on a single line) with the most readable brackets that I had easy access to.
