Great great idea--I'd probably be giving a 4.5 because the map has the 2 extra rooms, but I'll round up :) I can see many directions you can go from here--a sequel with R&B songs in a jazz club or rock songs in a studio. But do right by us and add pieces for these last two rooms!
Had a lot of fun with this and looking forward to Chapter 2! Ran into the saving glitch once, but all functioned fine afterwards.
Three suggestions: 1) I think you can afford to ramp up the difficulty--I'm pretty bad on most games' easy setting, but I was coasting through this; 2) a master map would be awesome; 3) inventory management's kinda tedious--a quick "equip" or "disarm" when you're in a shop could be really useful. Much fun!
Very cute ideas here. Love new characters as they're introduced, and gameplay mechanics are exceptionally smooth.
I'm with Kelsen on the opportunities for improvement: an indication when switch blocks change, and the (eek!) painfully slow speed of the dialogue scroll (it's nice to ESC to the end, but not if we want to read it for the first time!)
It'd also be great to have a change in music. It's totally impressive to have this many screens, but given changes of location, new music would be fun too.
Well done! Having a lot of fun with this!
On level 12, enjoying, and this has the potential for a lot of fun. But I think you need a bit more in the instructions. Not sure what, but just a bit more info before Stage 3.
