I agree with previous posts, this is a difficult game, but excellent idea and execution.

Furthermore the game might be a bit slow for a rhythm game.\n\nIt's a pretty fun game with the planning phase and then actually executing the plan, but walking in a straight line got me to the end pretty easily.\n\nOverall a good effort! With some balancing and polish this could definitely become something!
