Very nice. Even though it's not really a game, it was an great 5 min experience. Nicely self-aware in a humble way. And a great standalone soundtrack!

Philip's right in that this is not a "game"...but what a beautiful and enjoyable experience it was. The music was fantastic and I found the story strangely compelling. I had a great time playing through to the end.

Nice work!

The only I didn't like about the game ist that it's very hard to experience the music without small audio hops (if you know what I mean) as you have to press space slightly before you visually reach the next line. Maybe if there wasn't a line but a small bar and whenver you hit space anywhere inside the bar the music plays on without interruption? Aside from that though great, creative entry + I can hear the music on your soundcloud.

Really enjoyed this! Even though the controls were very simple I liked being able to change up the pacing/tempo/mood by delaying my presses. Interesting way of presenting music/a story.

Love the style of this. My wife also played it through and she absolutely loved it. here are her comments - "This was a very well thought out experience. The music was wonderful and I loved reading the story that guided me through. It reminds me a lot of playable mini games in JRPGs, that give you some perspective into a character that you encounter. A great effort. Well done :)"

Very cool way to visualize a one-button rhythm game.

Interesting idea, definitely experimental, but really cool. I liked that there was no real win or lose, and if you delay or press too soon, its ok, its like your own version of the tune.

Really well done! This flowed together perfectly with the pacing of both the game, and the music, and the humor with interstitials. It was clever on many fronts. Great work!

Dom dom DOOOM DOOOOOM!

This was absolutely stellar. The text together with the music really created a special feeling for the text that I've never quite seen/heard like this before. And the writing fit perfectly. Clever, really well done!

Love music games like this. Well done! I included it in part 14 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/-VvtqXfr-Xs

Awesome music! It was fun to try to time everything exactly, but it would be better if there was feedback to see how close you were. (Controller support would be amazing!) Great writing and I love the ending too!

Great job! I definitely felt connected to the message from a philosophical standpoint. The music was excellent.

Wasn't sure at first, but the music is wonderful and the minimal gameplay just works, letting the player pace the music. Congrats, a highlight of the compo.

nice and strange game. So poor gameplay but the little challenge to have a good music... and then a rythmic dialogs... good idea.

Very cool rythm game. Easy to play, but no so easy to make it sound fluent. I like the ending where you can listen to the music as it should be.
Very well done!

Looks and sounds beautiful, translation could be improved, I guess, but it's a lot of fun regardless.
