Sadly the feedback from your input isn't very noticeable which makes it not very fun to play.

I cannot tell if I'm doing good or not. And I find it difficult to see the relation between the songs and the rythm. \rDid you compose all these songs yourself during the jam ?\rOur team also create a rythm game, so come have a look at it ! :)"},{"author_name":"Darkflint","author_uid":"57115","time":"Dec 14, 2015 @ 11:00pm","epoch":1450133700,"text":"@liquidmedia: well, each song has an own end. there is no campagne or something like that.\r\r@Decentsauce: strictly speaking it was only sunday, saturday i had to prepare my environment etc. not much programming.\r\r@RadStar again someone complain the lack of feedback :P And like i said in another comment, there is no relation beetwen songs and ryhtm, it´s random. Well, at least regarding which button is shown, the frequence and time for pressing are related to the song. Ran out of time. Also i didnt compose any song, at the top right corner you see a link to a site with copyright free songs. you can even upload your own songs and other player can play to it."},{"author_name":"GAFBlizzard","author_uid":"12278","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 7:28am","epoch":1450164180,"text":"I don't see any score counter on Firefox 42.0, sadly.

It should be a little closer to the song in my opinion. Also if the A and D squares have nothing to do with the music, then they should probably be visible longer, or have some way to predict them like scrolling Rock Band blocks.\r\rInteresting idea anyway!"},{"author_name":"rogberth","author_uid":"8913","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 9:57pm","epoch":1450216320,"text":"Strangest game I've played so far, but I like the idea."},{"author_name":"MorganLeFay","author_uid":"65148","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 10:05pm","epoch":1450216800,"text":"The setup of your game is impressive! It's great that you can upload your own songs and even chat with other people. Could be improved on the visuals and the feedback, though.
