Cool idea! I liked how all the enemies seemed to be vibing to the beat :)

Submitted

Cool game! I like how you made the movement beat/looped-based with the music.

Well done! :D

Submitted

Very interesting spin on the theme, I like the rythm genre mixed with the vampire survivors one, great job on that.

Overall great game, gj :D

The game is a lot of fun, but it really looks like you used ai-generated graphics for it which is against the jam rules and must always be disclosed on itch.io.

I think it would a big shame to have your game be disqualified because of this as it was really solid otherwise and didn’t need those graphics to be fun. If you did use ai-assistance you also really need to add the corresponding tags ASAP as the game will be de-indexed otherwise.

Nice game, i didn’t get the rhythm at the start and got cornered really fast but the second time i enjoyed the beat for a good while :)

Submitted

its one of funniest ideas 

Submitted

I love the concept taking the rhythm movement from Necrodancer and using it in a survival game.

The balance in this game feels a little off, some guns are a struggle to use and require constant moving where as with the automatic rifle I could sit in one spot and the game would mostly play itself.

Developer

Thank you for feedback. Yes that are things to change :)

Submitted

It's really fun, I had a great time playing it. The monsters are scary, and shooting feels awesome. It's just that using the H key to fire is a bit odd; everything else is great—perfect!

Developer

ok, that was for testing. I will delete it i think :) thanks for feedback

Submitted

Fun rhythm game! Good job :)

Developer

I really love the concept and would love to see it grow more! It blended two of my favorite types of games and I was instantly sold when I could follow the rhythm of the beat!

Nice one, gameplay is very fun and challenging

Submitted

Really nice and creative game! It felt kinda like "Vampire Survivor" mixed with "Crypt of the Necro Dancer", it's a really neat concept. The music music is very fitting and the timing to the beat is nice and lenient. Great job making the game.

Developer

Yes, like mix of Vampire Survivor, Brotato and Crypt of the Necro Dancer ;)

Submitted

Cool concept, a lot of possibilities to be expanded on here! 

Submitted

Love this keyart! Very cool concept! I wish there was a tutorial, but maybe I’m just bad hahaha

Submitted

Really would like to see the idea expanded! Also the variety of weapons feels very nice.

Developer

Now I need to polish weapons and make game longer :)

Submitted

I love rythm games, this was fun! I was able to understand how to play immediately, good job there!

Developer

Glad to hear that :)

Submitted

i love the interpretation of the theme and gameplay, what did you use to make the art?

Developer

Thanks. I used Affinity Photo and Krita

Submitted

Developer
