44 was the highest I got (so far). really nice game, and the entire look of it's very cool. The variable spacing between the blocks and such really kept me on my toes / kept me from falling into some kind of safe rhythm. Good job!

Interesting game, felt like it needed a little bit more in terms of mechanics but it was fun for a good while, good work :).

I like how each movement has its own sound.

Gameplay is fun. My main critique is with the graphics, the backgound object are too colorful and detailed compared to the things that are actually part of the gameplay. The game is simple enough that it isn't distracting, but it's confusing for the first seconds in the game (The cyan cylinders in particular scream interactive).

Also cool to see someone using the Blender game engine!

Fun game, though there's no difficulty curve. Once you figure it out, you can just keep playing forever. It would be nice if the pace speeds up the longer the game runs.

First I thought that the game was too hard, then suddenly I got 150+. Adding sync with the music would have helped me in the beginning and I also think that you could have made it successively harder by adding obstacles in a pattern that could then be mapped to the music. I liked how the coming obstacles appeared in the field of view, nice implementation of a classic game!

Interesting concept, audio got a bit annoying if you click too fast. Also feel like the delay on the character popping back into its original form could be a bit longer. Good job!
