That was amazing. I don't know how much content there is(I didn't get too far) but as long as it had a decent level of content I would pay for this! If you develop this past Ludum Dare a small suggestion.

I'm so impressed with the work you guys made in 3 days. The idea is really good and the art style is so good. I really enjoyed the challenge to figure out the right notes to kill the enemies, I appreciate that it took me a couple of times to understand. By the end of the game i knew the right notes by heart.\r<br\/>I guess this game would benefit from a little tutorial in the beginning, at least for the first monster.

I would have liked some kid of visual indication of the notes I was hitting like in the 3d zelda games as I had trouble remembering the order of what I had been tapping.

Remembering a lot of combinations becomes a bit tedious when the enemies become so diverse. What would be cool to see is some hint\/reminder on how to beat known enemies, maybe show 2\/4 notes on them or something.

Art looks fantastic and the audio is phenomenal, right down to the pop of the enemy projectiles. I found the core mechanic engaging for a little while, but after a few levels it got to be boring to me. Maybe it could have been more engaging if there was BGM that I had to stay in-rhythm with, or if the chords changed up every once in a while, but I just didn't feel like memorizing any of the sequences.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Other than that, it was a fantastic entry!
