Wow such a cool concept! So many possibilities! I love how the mood of the game changes as you keep playing and building your sound.
I think you might benefit from having the loop be smaller at the start and grow larger as you progress. I found myself a little overwhelmed at the beginning with how much space there was to loop, and how many different items were available.
Nice job!

Chill and relaxing, as it says on the tin! Not a huge rhythm fan myself, but I had a good time experimenting with different crafting combinations and exploring the map. I'm a huge fan of your art style.

I got so far but you can crash the game by spamming items on the crafting platforms.

Nice and relaxing, altough can get boring quickly. I played it for 10 minutes, I think it is a creative idea and I had some fun playing around with the different items. Nice game!

I loved this!

The gameplay is super simple and straightforward, with a nice layer of depth and puzzle added by crafting.
The sounds are very well chosen and the loops you make are instantly pleasing.
The art is cute.

It is quite hard to move everything around and a bit long to change pitches with diapason, but it makes things even more satisfying when you make something out of all this.

Thanks for the game 💕

I love this concept. I did find it a little tedious to arrange the items in the loop. Overall great job!

Pretty creative game! The art is simple but nice to look at. I also like how different materials acted as different instruments, though I wish there were more of certain types. I did get a little annoying having to walk all the way around the map to place an item on the track, but it was still enjoyable. Great job on the jam!

Great game! I am usually commenting on bad things so there is nothing for me to say : D

Love it, one of my favorites games on this jam.

This was a really cool idea! I love this little game. It was a little tiring having to go around the water so often. The art was really nice and the loops that can be created sound great. All of the elements work together so well to create a pleasing experience that I found a lot of fun. Good job!

Cute graphics. Reminded me of an adventure version of Mario Paint.

I thought the game was pretty cool. Y'know, simple little music game. And then I learned what the tuning fork could do, and MAN did that blow my mind!
