Excellent artwork and music. The game mechanic is very simple and the difficulty increases pretty linearly. I am not sure how you can lose a game though.

Thanks for your comments guys. @danieldsj Actually there is no "bad end". You miss a wave if don麓t transform all people. We麓d like to implement rewards and other gamification mechanics but times run out.

Great game! The graphics are great (the animations are really polished and have a great retro vibe) and the music is off the chain crazy-good. Had a blast playing this one, really creative graphical design and a fun rhythm game! Thanks for your submission, hope you had fun making it!

Ha, that was funny. It shurely has some serious gameplay, but most important is the frequency you mash the mouse button. That is ok for me...

Great game, the gameplay reminded me of Elite Beat Agents for DS. Good job!

Really interesting game, the music is awesome. I especially like the little Mexican wave the "squeletons" make at the end of every round.

Really solid game. I liked the animations and the music.
I wished that the gameplay have more mechanics to give it more variety (something like do the click following the music), but for a LD game is fine.

Awesome! Great graphics and feel to the whole thing, the music too. Very well done, and great to see a metal themed game, and pulling it off so well too.

The setting and take on the theme are brilliant, and so are graphics and sound. Flawless work on all this!

As for gameplay, at first I thought it was a rhythm game similar to the Ouendan series, until I realised you just had to click. By the 4th or 5th wave it started to feel repetitive.

However, this offers a lot of potential to improve it, and everything else is already awesome. 隆Buen trabajo!

Great job. I love the Zebricorn :P The aesthetics are really cool and the tweets add-on is an interesting add-on.

Maybe you could have made another twist if you setted up an account for the game and let the players tweet some message to be included on this pool of tweets when they beat the game.

The mechanic is simple but effective, but it gets really overwhelming early on :S

Funny theme, certainly feels metal. Clever marketing with the twitter integration.

Haha, that's pretty fun game. Maybe not particularly outstanding in terms of raw gameplay, but I've got to love spawning rainbow skeletons to the metal music. Too bad there's only one track for all levels, and there's little variety in the gameplay (completing wave 6 doesn't feel much different that completing wave 1).

Nevertheless, I quite enjoyed the general idea. ;)

Wow! Art, animations, and audio were all wonderful. An animated cursor here would be awesome, I started losing track of my white cursor among the massive squeleton mob, LOL.

Great work! The graphics are really well made and the animations are great! The transformations were nicely built!

The audio is superb! Loved the soundtrack and the choice for sound effects!

Gameplay-wise, it felt a bit like "Ouendan/Elite Beat Agents" and it's quite fun and frantic to play! XD

Great work, really! :)
