Great game, polished and great music ! Like the osu mania it is difficult but entertaining :)

Great creepy atmosphere and quite engrossing. One of the best I've played in the jam. Genuinely felt sad for the TV when it was unplugged and wanted to get to know it better. Very well done.

You should post the music on spotify and youtube! It's sooo good

Nice rhythm game, aesthetically pleasing and very polished. It seemed to me that music was a bit out of sync with visuals, but maybe it’s just me.

I’m a sucker for rhythm games, and this one was really good too. Love the music and the six finger difficulty. The off-beat notes were slightly more difficult to hit perfectly. I also felt that the visual queue was lagging behind the music just slightly. Luckily, I was able to follow the music for the best score. I appreciate both story mode and challenge mode. I think challenge mode could have been slightly more challenging from the beginning of the song. I started to think it was the same as story mode.

I think the timing of the hit can be a little bit more forgiving. I didn’t get many perfects, but I did everything perfectly! (joke)

I want even more challenging songs!

Developer

Thanks for sharing feedback! Initially, the challenge mode was the only mode, but after some feedback from my family I added a story mode, cloning the notes from the challenge and changing only the second part of the song. Anyway I'm glad you enjoyed the experience!

oh I failed. The length got the best of me. 

The tune definitely fits the theme and feeling and I love it.

Tho the hold beats can be more forgiving by accepting a little bit of late input. 

I also love the vintage effect on screen. Well done.

Altho I dunno how to proceed with the dialogue...

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it!

Fantastic game!! The polish here is excellent, and the gameplay is very enjoyable! I’m not sure if it was my browser though, but I wasn’t getting the notes syncing up exactly with the music, but it was still fun!

I think one nice change would be so that hitting enter once during dialog would finish all the speech, and then hitting it again would proceed to the next set of speech. I kept hitting enter because I’m impatient, and then I would miss the responses from the player!

Overall very well done!!

It was difficult to keep the track in sync with notes in the web build, maybe next time I will implement It using a different approach! Thanks for the suggestions!

Possibly the best game I've played in this jam! I got 74.9%, I loved how it got harder over time, I would have loved it to go into double time at the end! Great dialog and music and very nice graphics. Top game!

Developer

thanks for playing 😊

Love the nostalgic graphics, reminds me of the ol' CRTs! The game is a bit hard though, but overall a nice experience!

Developer

thanks for the feedback! I know is a bit hard, did you play it in story mode?

Submitted

Yup, but I'm pretty bad at rythm games! Anyway, good job!
