There was a bug that made levels 6 and 7 harder than expected. Thatโs been fixed. Levels 8, 9 and 10 are supposed to be that hard. Sorry!

Very challenging music/rhythm game, both because each level is instadeath and because it lacks the usual cues as to when you're allowed to press the buttons. Don't give up before trying relaxed mode, which gives you a better chance to appreciate the melody without dying twenty times first.

Simple and challenging, but annoying that pressing the key even a millisecond before you land means you don't jump after landing.

Great game! I really love how the learning curve levels off for each level and you can be really proud of yourself of how you can beat it consistently once you've gotten the hang of the rhythm!

Welcome to all the folks who found this game via Nerd^Cubed! This was an entry for Ludum Dare, so it was made in 48 hours and not super polished. I'll be releasing an updated and expanded version soon so keep an eye out. Thanks!
