The graphics are beautiful. Great work!

That was really really really entertaining trying to figure out how to stay on beat. Had a desire to play it all the way through and I did. I would call that a success on your part! Good job

Not sure how to play this on Linux. Here's what I did:
1. download BeatHenshin_Linux.zip
2. run ./BeatHenshin.x86

which resultet in:
error while loading shared libraries: libXcursor.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

@lancelot gao: thanks! Actually it's a stickman with face :p

@Idkfawin32: oh Awesome! Cool that you can 'beat' the game. Hehe

@sirtetris: I haven't try on Linux as well. Thanks for the report! I'll try to investigate it

@sirtetris: great! What's your distro btw?

Great stuff! Very hard for someone with no rhythm like me, but I guess that should be expected! The game has a great sense of humor to it. Some more detailed instructions would've been nice though. Congrats on your first compo!

the character and poses were really cute, but i wish there was some music to dance along to!

Not really sure what the point of the game was, but I liked the graphics. I just sorta pressed spacebar and got 1 word feedback and a dance motion.

As someone who's used to Rhythm games, I found this really out of time- or perhaps I couldn't figure out how to really play the game? It's cute graphics-wise though.

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on www.indiexpo.net ? It's like itch or gjolt.
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

Fun game, interesting concept, and a little humor to take the cake!

Did not quite understand the goal of the game, even though I was tapping the yellow ones, the grey ones still popped up. Pressing the grey ones didn't punish me either. Still cute though, I like beat games. Maybe there's just some more explanation needed.

I really enjoyed it

Love rhythm games ;p~

It's a bit dificult to stay on rhythm without feedback (like lights flashing or something like that). If you implement a strumbar it should be more easier to predict the exact time to press the button
