So I guess Miku is still the world's number one princess huh? Now penguin as well!

Creative idea, I love the touches that made the experience feel like a GBA game somehow. The singing mechanic was simple but effective, and the music worked perfectly.

And I agree with one of the penguins there, I also wonder what are those darn tar reefs!

Underrated game, why it is so little numbers of ratings? Good combination of logical puzzle && rhythm game. Main hero and history keeps in the game. For me was a little hard to understand first time how to play in rhythm. And it will be much more cooler for me, if there was energy music and more complex rythm parts. All penguins was saved!

Same here. really wanted to give this game a try but it seems broken right now (with the exact same message as the previous comment). Hope you guys can fix it soon!

Really good game I quite enjoyed it and the humour was good too. Really impressive what you managed to do in such a short time. The text started going out of text boxes and off screen at the end, but other than that there was no issues. Good job on the game! :)

I did not expect the sudden political turn lol. Cute game!

We are having a hard time with the embed on LDJ but it should work fine on the itch page linked at the top of the post. Itch has an embed and a downloadable version. @olsonexi @dubiousduck

Still working on fixes to try to get it to successfully embed here

I got to play it and have to say, wow this game is polished. The dialogues are very funny, and the control feel pretty smooth. I really like it a lot. Hope you guys can get more ratings soon!

Wow! This seems like y'all submitted a pretty large game! It has good tutorials and charming vibes

Very funny and charming RPG with great graphics and music as well a good gameplay variety. Both the slide puzzles and music segments were quite fun, and I loved the dialogue sprites in particular.

The real-world political references felt a bit jarring at times and slightly took me out of the otherwise fun and whimsical setting but other that I liked the story.

Like the humour here^_^

I really like the writing and the tone of the game ! Nice retro vibe with art direction. I would have liked to continue but I can't find the way down to the ice about 2 rooms after the base camp :(

I had a good laugh with this one. The gameplay was simple, but everything else about it was really strong. I like the pokemon mystery dungeon vibes, and there's just something quite comical about Miku rescuing penguin civilization.

Loved the worldbuilding and the dialogs. There's quiet a lot of content for a jam, that's impressive! Congrats!

I was quite impressed when I first started the game. The art, pixel art and the UI was wow for a jam. Quite unique that there was a rythem game element in the game (while some would say it's more so QTE). To be fair, that's pretty fitting considering Miku is in it. The choice of music really set the mood in certain scenes. And dialouges were a were fun to read. Makes me want to know what's going to happen after being left of a semi-cliffhanger. Well done!
