A downloadable game

A rhythm game made for Ludum Dare in 48 hours

Link to LD game page

Follow the beat and match the shape to progress.

I had a day and a half to create this. Scrapped the original idea and was very distractive through the day. But finally accomplished the desire of making a game for compo :D

Controls:

W or Up arrow: move up the lane

S or Down arrow: move down the lane

Space: change shape

Music was made by me during the 48h.

Hope you enjoy. Send me bugfixes (as I'm sure there are many)

The source code is definitely not reusable, lots of stuff were hard coded (perception is deceiving). Don't even bother trying to read it...

Feel free to give your thoughts on this game as I really enjoyed making it.

Holy damn dude best game I played from ludum dare so far. I didn't understand why you mentioned that it is gonna ruin my video card it only used 9% :D

Thank you, thank you a lot, dude! The video's card thing was just a little joke cause it has no graphics, but... with little truth because of the several calls to draw shapes with different colors with Java xD I also really liked your game, I'm writing a comment right now. Good luck for us!
