Well then it's just... Wha? Huh?

It would be a good idea to post A) a link to the demo B)post some screenshots C)post a small description of what is this about and D) make a bit more sense, especially that last part Undecided

But, the game does look nice on video Smiley

aye, see.
demo soonish.
screenshots maybe... i mean... why, when there's video?

what it's about? well... so far the idea is:

* you are a ninja
* music is playing
* enemies spawn to the beat
* you need to kill them
* if you hit them to the beat you get bonus points
* if you bounce them in the air you get bonus points
* break the highscore
* Huh?
* profit


so far the enemies don't move/attack and it's not synchronized to the music. it's still work in progress.

thanks so far Smiley

So it's sort of Bokorin + beat?
What's the criteria for the end of game?  End of song?  Or do the other guys fight back and kill you?
Will you create the song to control the difficulty, so it ramps up nicely?  Or will it work with any song?

Anyway, the concept seems like it could be neat Smiley
 and as usual I love your art!

all the graphics are done by >:3 stereotyp/leo.

and... thanks for the gameplay suggestions. we have no end condition yet.
and the enemy system isn't in yet. (plan is to spawn to the beat and attack the player on wrong beats)

more suggestions are very welcome. i want this to be the first original and fun freeware music game Smiley

puit/cute-wars: on hold for now. see thread.

ps: you can haz screenshot?

Ah.  See, I was wondering where the "beat" part came in as it wasn't readily apparent in the video.

Since you can still kill ninjas even if you're off beat then what's the point of staying on beat except to get a higher score?  Quite a lot of people don't pay attention to or care about score.  Perhaps there should be some other reason or incentive to stay on beat.

I agree.

I am definitely digging the concept though.

It would be cool if all of the combat was rhythm based (i.e. the enemies also danced to their own diabolical beat) and the combat would be two musical styles battling each other out.
