Jump to the rhythm as an escaped ink drop in a 2D platformer where the piano itself tries to throw you off pitch.

Gameplay

A 2D pixel-art rhythm platformer where you play melodies by jumping across piano keys as an ink drop escaped from a quill. The sheet music is right in front of you, but you must strike the notes yourself by landing precisely on the correct keys. Miss a step, and the wrong key strikes a discord, the melody restarts, and one of your three lives is gone. The further you progress, the more devious the piano becomes - hiding notes, shuffling keys mid-melody, and forcing you to play from memory. With only three lives and zero room for error, survival demands perfect pitch, lightning-fast reflexes, and absolute precision.

Additional information

This game participated in No room for mistakes, that was my seventh gamejam.

The theme of the gamejam was "The Wrong Key" with the theme asset. I worked on the project about 6 days. This was my first experience working with a MIDI-keyboard for a game, I would be glad to hear feedback on the music, sounds and the game in general. I would like to continue this project in time.

Thank you if you try to play and leave a review about my game or share your story with gamejam!
