It's here! The stuff of dreams, an entry for the epic Ludum Dare has been made!
The game is a one button game where you hop from island to island. It was fairly rough to make a game in just 48 hours, yeah I'm a newbie, but it was pretty fun too!

I liked the idea and played to the end. For all the islands I could just "feel" when it was time to move, but the last one I resorted to tapping out a beat.

Simple, but fun mechanic! I couldn't quite get that last one...

This game practically had me jumping up and down in frustration(the good kind). :)
Surprisingly compelling game mechanic, but I gave up in frustration on the second last island. The easier bits could/would work very well if combined with something else though, and it was pretty fun for a while.

An interesting entry! I actually found it pretty fun to track the patterns. I found myself singing little songs in my head to track the beat of each thing. It would be interesting to try syncing the rhythms to music; you could probably get away with much shorter and rarer green windows that way.

Unexpectedly playable for a game with just one button! This game also has the most minimal sound in any non-silent LD17 game I've played; it sounds like a one-sample click, only when I move backwards. Just a few minutes to play and a satisfying victory. :)

Fun game! VERY VERY Hard! I wish the victory part was a bit more rewarding, but at least I won! :)
An odd little timing game. Rather harder than it at first seems.
Endurion
Yay, victory! :)
And annoyingly frustrating, when I went back the three last islands again and again.
Well done!
AAaah can get to the last island, but can't coordinate enough to end it : ( Fun though, once I figured it out : )

Simple but addictive. Very good.
Very nice game. Took me awhile to figure out what it was about. The end was nicely challenging and I managed to finish it.
