I couldn't pass level 11 I think, but up to that point the game was really impressive and fit the theme pretty well. One expansion of this would be to have make levels such that the final (and only) sequence that can beat the level creates an actual small song. Although then the game would be much more about timed execution without any time to stop in between moves... Anyway, good job!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, your piano reminded me of this song: http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pNxqwEqu7rg"},{"author_name":"netgrind","author_uid":"12128","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 5:19am","epoch":1367212440,"text":"That was nice, The music and graphics were excellent."},{"author_name":"FuzzyWuzzie","author_uid":"22923","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 5:24am","epoch":1367212740,"text":"Love the graphics and the gameplay!

I loved the piano sounds. It was very calming at first, but the later levels really raise the curve. Not impossible, but hard. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>ALSO you should make it more apparent that you have the .love file. That way mac\/linux people can play it too if they have love.
