I liked this game, like a lot. Drum Looper is a fun and somewhat stressful rythem game where you get to construct your own drum loop and fight in some pretty fun levels.

Thanks very much for the feedback!!

was really cool when the music got going! Would love to see some super power to activate some epic riff :)

Developer

That's a great idea!

Nice job!

I'm still tapping my foot to the beat. Very cool.

Developer

As the programmer having this music on nearly constantly for the jam, I feel you 🤘

I really like this idea, it's fun and enjoyable.

I love the idea, but it definetly needs more levels. I didn't overuse purple waves yet it still was very easy. The art on upgrades is really beautifull

Submitted(+1)

Really interesting idea! It was fun, but maybe a little easy..though I think it's also a bit complex/hard to process what's going on. BUT, I think that could be fixed if somehow beat placement was streamlined/simplified. I say too easy because you can just place red/blue on the same beat and annihilate everything, though I'm not sure that was the intention. 

All that said, great work and a very cool idea! 

Developer(+1)

Unfortunately we missed how OP the red and blue strategy was until just before the project was due. Don't know how we missed it!! 


Thanks so much for playing!

Submitted(+1)

That is an awesome idea. I haven't seen many games this jam that are using sound for the loop. Great work!

Developer

Thank you very much!

I think I'm playing it wrong by spamming purple waves but still I love the style and concept, especially choosing different genres as upgrades

Developer(+1)

Haha yeah we unfortunately missed this strategy, but thank you for playing!!

I had fun with this, great drumming game!

This   game  is super   sick! The different bandmates that serve   as   upgrades   are neat   &   Moblius   was   looking mad dapper   B) 

Developer(+1)

So glad to see Moblius getting the appreciation they deserve B)

Interesting game. Managing the different beats felt pretty hard.

I didn’t really get the moving to the beat part. It felt like I could always move.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yes you can always move. It's that when you move in time with a green note you heal. 


Originally you had to move on the beat always, but we couldn't figure out how to not make it too hard in time.

Great game - enjoyed it!!

I am a simple drummer: I see a drum game - I play it! Great job, colleague!

Developer

Thank you very much! Our music folks were great. 

Submitted(+2)

Fun game! I really enjoyed moving to the beat!

Developer(+1)

I hope you also enjoyed shooting to the beat!

Very cute game!! I love hearing the different combos of instruments combined with your own unique drum beats! <3 

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

Such a cool game! I love the creativity behind it! I wasn't sure how to play at first, but I started getting the hang of it. It would be cool to see other genres and modes, but great submission! 

Developer(+1)

I'm glad you got a hang of it! I hope the tutorial was helpful enough. Other music and game modes would be awesome, thanks for the suggestions!

Submitted(+2)

cool game :^)

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted(+2)

Such a perfect idea and it was immediately fun and challenging wow. I can't wait to hear it with more music genres because the loose old timey blues music didn't really mesh with the metronomic drum beat for me

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! It was definitely a challenge to get all of the music working well with the drums.
