Super fun little rhythm game, loved the take on the theme with the various means of obscuring the prompts.

This is really neat - the different ways in which the jams themes are integrated into the gameplay are really smart as well. Cracking stuff.

The game feel is very organic to me from the realization, the design and the visual universe !

Gameplay proposes by not click only stupidly on what you see an intelligent way to play from rythmic pattern  you just learn. which is awesome for this type of game !
I would Love to see more of that.

This game was fin-tastic! Blew my expectations out of the water! I'm now hooked on this concept!

The music, art, gameplay were all AMAZING! Your team did an awesome job!

This game is great, definitely my favorite from the jam by far. I'm not normally a rhythm game fan, but this one was really great!

Oh my god!!!! The art is great, the music is cool and the gameplay is rad! I especially liked the little twist when you see / not see the buttons and when they are hidden as well. 

This is so well executed, I wished there was more to it! LOVED IT!

I like rythm games, particularly Guitar Hero so this appeal to me personally. I think this have the potential of a great comercial game.

Glad to hear this from someone outside the dev team!
We've definitely been talking about the potential of expanding this game (and maybe even adding a custom songs level editor feature).
Happy to hear that you enjoyed this!

Just got the feedback that the game lags on Mirror. Gonna look into that😅

You should have no problem playing the game on the Playdate or Simulator though👍
