Very slick animations and cool music. Maybe you can make the difficulty curve more steep.

Viking is awesome! Maybe tick error is to hard (+/- 0.2 sec from beat time could be more sparing)

Cool game, loved the concept, but with all apologies to your composer, that ain't a disco song. Something with more of a beat would really put this game on a whole other level.

This is really nice job guys ! Game description is fun, songs are nice et gets stuck in your head. The only missing thing is more songs with different rythmes and more level to be able to play more to it

Thanks everyone! We are really grateful about your enthusiast feedbacks, there's a lot missing in the game that we wanted to put in, or ideas we had right in the middle of the ludum dare but we had our hands full of tasks.

@bassguitarbill to answer your comment, in fact we asked our composer to do something Disco & Metal (Vikiiinnngs! :D) a bit, there was a lot of confusion in what we wanted because most of us aren't that good in music. Still we loved the result even if it's not completely Disco. We, for the most of us, are metal lovers, so we gave as a reference :
- Stayin' Alive Bee gees https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_izvAbhExY
- Metal cover by the Amazing Leo Moracchioli: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDW_HK1Xmv8
- Turisas Rasputin https://youtu.be/cdkBs0VCSX0.

I hope this will explain the path we had with the music :)

Love the vibe this game is giving. Nice and fun mechanic, great take on the theme, and well-done graphics. Difficulty could stand to ramp up a little, but nevertheless, it's a fun time.
