Really great game, I love to see rhytm games in the compo. The concept of the game is weird lol. Maybe it is a little too easy?

BTW I got a 272 combo!

It's fresh to see a game without tilesets! Three midi tracks and your own playbacksystem, great stuff!

I esp. love the third track. It's most fun to play.

Amazing game leafo!

A pleasant surprise to see other rhythm games this ludumdare! And a good one at that! It's really fun and crazy in the best of ways. Kudos!

I couldn't seem to get it to work very well, and my Xbox controller started vibrating like mad and did not stop until I closed the game. I am running the Windows executable.

Really liked the audio. Nice simple graphics too. The game mechanics could have been more innovative.

This game's really funny! I loved the rhythym gameplay, and the art really added to it! Very well done.
Just a heads up, the game has ssome kind of event that causes controllers to rumble, but doesn't ever stop :)

Love the graphics style, well presented and great audio. I played the OS X download and the sound was out of sync for me which broke the experience, so I didn't stick with it for long. Rating based on how I feel the game would of been with correctly synced audio.

Thanks for the feedback, I removed gamepad vibration since it seemed to be bugged.

Wonderful game. I just wish I would be better in tongue licking.
Excellent entry.

I don't know of the music beat was off or what, but the tongue would break the candy and it would say "miss"
Very confused.

Cool! This is easily the best fit for the theme I've seen so far.

I was confused by the practice since I seemed to miss everything, but playing the other two songs it seemed to be synced normally. At first in the practice level I thought I was visually misjudging when to tap. I'm not good at rhythm games though, so it's possible I just missed the beat.

Funny and weird, I like it.

This cracked me up, though it was rather difficult! I loved the reaction faces he makes when you miss and hit your own glasses. I had a lot of difficulty in the practice section trying to nail the timing - one tiny bit of feedback that might help is some extra visual cue for when the "right" time to hit the note is (often done with pulses or flashes). Pretty minor, though. Super weird and great compo work!

A hilarious and very well-realized entry at the same time xD Very stylish rhythm game... damn I wish I had that long a tongue... because... you know... reasons [whistle innocently].

Graphics are great :D

Good luck!

This is so weird in such a great way! On top of that, it's a very solid rhythm game with enough challenge! Very nice work!

Very polished game! Soundtrack was great, idea is unique, and it's all funny as hell. I think only spacebar worked in the menu to select when it said enter, though.

I didn't read the description apparently, so it was really difficult until i figured out it was a rhythm game! nice game! Playing it made me think of a hard mode with an alien with 3 or more eyes. and a cyclops easy mode.

It gets intense!
I like to take a moment after this kind of games to think at how this idea could even came out. I haven't find any answer for this one yet. Makes it even better.

Very addictive and fun game, awesome music and the visuals fit very well, too. Somehow, the practice mode is the most difficult one for me (don't know why!) ;D

I really suck at rhythm games and this game proves that. I was hopeless at it :( Great entry though. Good stuff.

This certainly fits the theme! Fun little game.
