Yeah as it says on the game page, the sound breaking up and the audio delay is because of FMOD. It works perfectly fine in the download version. Thanks for the feedback

WHERE IS THE THIRD EGG!??!?! HUHHHHHH

Beep Boop Beep Boop (This game has a beautifully eerie and unsettling atmosphere and great use of colors)

Watch my Devlog for this game here!

Found a bug! The coin counter required for levels and the coin counter used for buying in shops are the same and don't reset after the shop. Meaning if you get all coins on the first level and don't spend any, you will automatically win every level after that

Very unique concept and great execution!

Unfortunately without a tutorial, but not too difficult to learn. It was very fun yet strategic to figure out the best solutions for problems that you yourself create. The music was very calming. I did find one bug (Details in my other post) and also lost to RNG in the second level (Started with three water buckets). Wasn't annoying though because you can easily restart each level, which fits the tone very well. The art is super clean and cutely drawn, although the background gives it a bit more of a darker tone which I'm not quite sure fits the game well.

But overall, great game. Well done.

(Though I don't buy that the duck is a chicken and it seems neither did Zaetu. Disappointing)

The wall of text is shown until you click LMB. You only need to press RMB once. And the music getting slower and the game "crashing" means you lost all of your lives (probably because you spammed RMB)

Seconded. Same happens for me

Thanks a lot for your feedback. I always thought obstacles were difficult because I’d have to implement pathfinding or something, but I could have probably found a workaround.

I am aware of the intro animation being annoying and yeah, I might have put my name a few too many times in the game or maybe it’s just because I throw the player in the menu ever level. But thanks a lot!

Sorry, I just loved the main menu intro animation too much to not force the player to waste their time watching it. But I do really appreciate the feedback. It helps a lot. I'll add more feedback next time.

Not very intuitive to learn. A health bar and a score meter would have made things much clearer. The description on the jam page sort of helps, but it is always better to put it into the actual game instead. I do like the idea of filling in the gaps instead of the opposite. However, it doesn't really feel like a rhythm game, not even an environmental one. The theme was interpreted in a very liberal way (I'm not sure whether that's a good or bad thing).
I do like the atmosphere of the game. Well done

Was a lot of fun to play. Bullet hell and rhythm go well together. The environment felt really responsive to the music. The presentation was striking and fitting to the music. Assigning different patterns to enemies with unique attacks makes a lot of sense and works super well. The patterns are introduced well and the entire game just feels great. Good work.

Finally had the time to play it today. I sadly failed to see both the rhythm element as well as the theme. I'm not sure how they were implemented but it wasn't obvious to me. I did like the design though. The gameplay was simple yet fun although I sometimes couldn't shoot and I felt like my movement speed was too high to aim properly.
For your first game jam though, I'd say it was pretty decent. It works. Also "New Text" in the menu... <3

I think the idea of recruiting a band player by player is a great idea and it works well as "Every new player adds to the length". Although, I would have preferred it if new players added difficulty instead. Like: You start with only two buttons for the guitar and every new player adds one or two more. But this works as well.
I loved the art, the characters and the location looked really cool. The notes might need a bit more polish (I see they are stretched instead of sliced). Also, the fonts can be a bit hard to read sometimes.
The music is pretty good and I love that the new players add one new layer to the song each.
Creative idea to combine a rhythm game with a visual novel. I think it works well.
Overall an awesome entry. Thou did a great job!

Pretty fun and interesting interpretation of the theme. Visuals are simple, yet good.

I got the top score on (most) levels. What can I say except I enjoyed the game (but screw the third level). I always love to see adaptive soundtrack!

That was SUCH a unique concept! Loved the idea and most of the execution. Would have loved to see a few more pixels on the arrows. They are pretty low-rez. Also nice touch with the online leaderboard. Really makes me want to git gud.

Can't play this game, sadly. If you're using Unity, don't just upload the .exe file. Zip it and upload the full folder.

Really cute game. Loved the interpretation of growing by also tying it to the controls. Camera in the falling boulder room was a quite jittery. Otherwise, great game <3

Some very creative ideas in this game. I especially like the transition from dirt to sky to space. Unique enemies and gameplay concept. Only the rain I found a little bit jarring. Otherwise, Good Job <3

Loved the game. Was fun to play and looked great. I did find a bug though: I lost once I got to exactly 0 coins. Still, Good Job <3

Yes that was intentional. I had to temporarily take down the page because of... reasons. Anyways, the game is playable again. Enjoy!

Thank you a lot for playing. I learned a lot watching you play, like how I should have positioned the player frames to give the appearance of the bullets hitting the enemy, how I should have designed to board to make everything more clear and how to make sure you know who you’re playing as. Thanks again

Well that's sad, but the download link should be at the bottom of the page (Windows & Mac). If you have a Windows or Mac you should be able to download and play it

Yes, thank you for playing it. I noticed the tag on Twitter, although you didn't actually get to the part where the actual rhythm game and the adaptive soundtrack begins. I do appreciate the inclusion in the video. You're doing a lot of people a favour with that

I can confirm, that this is indeed a game

It's such a simple game, but the business made the exponential and already addictive game even more exponential and addictive. I clicked for way too long...

I really liked this game. Having the fruits be up in your face while holding them annoyed me a little and such a small fov certainly didn't help. I really like the atmosphere of the game and I liked the narrator. Overall well done!

Wow that was fun. I really liked the movement concept and slaming all of the enemies felt amazing. It felt pretty balanced overall. The varied staged looked pretty good too altough I would have liked the game to look a bit darker, since the music and the story makes it feel like a darker atmosphere would fit. Otherwise great game. Very spooky. Oh and I would appreciate it if you also played my game. Thanks and good job

Pretty creative platformer! It was fun to beat and it looks great. The audio is good too, but the ball enemies feel a bit spammy and random. Otherwise great game. Very spooky

Honestly an underrated game. I like the design and I was surprised it had a combat system, which was this good. The game overall, however, feels a bit dull. This is mostly because the game doesnt have any music, just the athmosphere. The game could use a bit more fleshed-out sound and music, but the graphics look pretty good overall. I like the game, very spooky

This must be the scariest game I've played from this game so far. Just the fact that you said something about "Mild jumpscares" made me so paranoid that even the death screen scared me lol. My first attempt ended when I found the key in a house, but a monster was waiting outside and I had no way to escape (maybe add a second exit to that?). My second run was a succes with me outsmarting the monsters and finding the key next to the pond. It was a bit slow, which is fitting for the athmosphere you were going for. I had fun and it was spooky. Good work

I really like the game. The art is really clean and consistent. The music is also great, but the play theme feels a tiny bit off, at least at the start. The gameplay is really enjoyable. It feels absolutely amazing to double jump and turn into a bat. A bit more variation in the level design could be nice. Also a tiny nitpick: The game is controlled using a keyboard, but you have to use the mouse to click the buttons. Maybe make it so that pressing space starts the game.
Very spoopy. I like it

I love the graphics. It all fits together very nicely. Also I really like the sound effects and music. Especially that witches laugh. It has a good difficulty, but I feel like I'm walking really slow. Also a small nitpick: The footstep-sounds dont stop when jumping. Very spooky game
