I like the music. The gameplay is pretty interesting way to attack but with the number of enemies the game is very hard and feels unfair sometimes, especially because ever hit cancels your attack. I think it's harder to use keyboard than controller. I also don't understand what coins do.\r\r I would recommend each time you successfully press a button the rhythm gets faster, and also maybe make a the margin of error bigger at the beginning of the attack and make it less after you land more attacks."},{"author_name":"AlexanderMerk","author_uid":"112442","time":"Aug 31, 2016 @ 7:00pm","epoch":1472669700,"text":"Intresting idea, do your have group in social media?)"},{"author_name":"Culturebosh_games","author_uid":"56021","time":"Aug 31, 2016 @ 7:26pm","epoch":1472671260,"text":"Hey!

You're right. We would like have got more time to polish the gameplay mechanic. The characters and bullets are too big, so it's very hard to avoid them. About the shots, the main character does not shot anything. Each time you match right a button, all enemies inside the effect area are damaged. The longer you match the button string, the more damage is accumulted."},{"author_name":"Daniel","author_uid":"35799","time":"Sep 1, 2016 @ 2:13pm","epoch":1472738880,"text":"Interesting idea very unique, it was hard at first with the attacking but loved the music and art keep up with it."},{"author_name":"facelesstheone","author_uid":"55673","time":"Sep 1, 2016 @ 2:48pm","epoch":1472740980,"text":"Very nice combination of gameplay mechanics!

The mechanic is super interesting, and could totally lend itself well to an RPG type game. You could totally make a full final fantasy or zelda style RPG based around this mechanic, and it would be awesome. Reminds me a lot of Seqeuence or Before the Echo.\r\rWould be really interesting to have some sort of spellbook as well. Could maybe select an ability somehow, and then play the correct musical sequence to activate it. Or maybe you just start playing, where each of the buttons is a note, and different musical sequences create different effects.\r\rJust spitballing, but you guys are onto something really unique and interesting here."},{"author_name":"txotxopue","author_uid":"112550","time":"Sep 2, 2016 @ 9:30pm","epoch":1472851500,"text":"Loved the attack mechanic and the backgrounds!"},{"author_name":"Iwa","author_uid":"58061","time":"Sep 3, 2016 @ 2:36pm","epoch":1472913060,"text":"The battle system is very interesting.\rThere is a lack of visual feedback when the player attack.\rMore sounds and animation could make it really cool.
