Beat Blast DEMO

I feel like this game would be AMAZING with multiplayer! I know that that is hard, but it would add so much value to the game!

Just curious, what exactly does the blink item do? If dodging makes you invulnerable for a certain time and moves you to a certain distance, which is the only two factor that probably matters, what's the benefit of equipping the blink item if it affects neither of these?

Kind of the same thing goes for turret. It ends up hitting unwanted targets or miss (both the turret missing or mis-timing due to delay), and the contribution in overall dps is probably lower than not equipping at all. I certainly preferred the previous version of shooting 3 times with lower damage.

Also, I think it would be nice if the hexagonal/diamond/circular items appeared at the end of boss fights as well. Not as frequently as the square items though.

я видел как кто-то получал ноты способности и т.д как это сделать?    т.к в том комментарии где вы сказали про разногласия я не нашел ссылку выше

there are a lot of bugs in this game, but pretty much all of them are on the second floor.

I spent my notes on sentry upgrades, and I have two entire notes, and that's it

I hve been informed that there is a way to get A LOT of notes in the starting area (by pressing a key or something like that). Is that statement true?

I have a question, how much would the game sell for?

i was playing i was doing pretty well with like 12 notes in world 1 and bam phased through the wall and the enemies followed me inside the wall. i died im sad

I am back once again, and this time I actually counted. Decided to stop at good ol' stage 69. Got a few more notes here:

The fov is a bit too small. Combined with the fact that not all enemies glow, it sometimes makes it hard to avoid things like the snakes that come right at you out of nowhere. I think it would be good to increase the fov size, or at least make all the enemies glow.

On the bug stage, it felt a lot more rare to get one of those 4 way split rooms that lets you choose which room to go to (like the shop or boss).

The snakes can hit you before you get far enough into a room for the door to close. 

Sometimes there can be a big crowd of enemies directly in front of the door which is a bit inconvenient.

There's a small visual glitch in the sequencer when going into full screen mode. You can see it in the screenshot above, where one of the columns stays permanently Thicc™. It happens to whichever column is currently Thicc™ when you go into full screen.

The barrier passive can shield you from taking damage from the bug boss' second attack with the columns of bugs. Not sure if this is intentional or not.

When you start getting a ton of bullets on screen like with the setup I have up there, it sometimes makes it difficult to see your character while moving around and shooting in close quarters.

Enemy bullets can be hard to see over your own attack since they both glow to the same white. It might be good to pull the red bullets to the top layer so you can see it over your attack, but there's probably a better solution than that.

[edit] A pause menu would be very nice.

Anyways, that's all I can remember for now, I'll edit this comment if I think of anything later.

Does a dash key exist near the arrows? It's not practical to use the dash while moving  with the arrow keys. If this key dosen't exist, can you please add one?

Bug Report: Sometimes when I kill an enemy and it drops coins,  I can pick the majority of them up, but can't pick up 1 or 2, and they eventually despawn. This has happened to me multiple times.

Great game though, keep it up!

reporting bug: if you have sharpshooter you can destroy those 4 shield bubbles from the tunnel before entering boss room in bosses on floors 1 and 3

I discovered something about the spin shot. If you use the bouncy bullets with the spin shot weird stuff happens. so you might wanna look into that.

can it be free? it would be awsome if it is free

I found a visual bug with the note collection at the beginning of a new game. I'm guessing when you click on the notes faster than the menu music ends after clicking play, the first note will be invisible but the others will seem oddly placed. The visual bug fixed itself though once I exited fullscreen.

would be awsome if there is shield its the same as health but it might have another use

Ummm, enemies can clip through walls pls fix it. It's like a mini jumpscare

Will the game be available on mac  os?

I would love to play this game but my computer is an old mac inherited from my father

Locked rooms that you have to play a specific sequence as a "key" to unlock the door (like in the Zelda Ocarina of Time games), the current room contains clues to the music pattern.

I see the suggestions with additional bullet types.

I think it can work, but you can only "bring with you" 4 bullet types to battle, but you have plenty more to choose from in the "load-out area", or something like that.

secret bosses? like if you have only 7 notes [2G 4P 5B 6P 7B 8YB] a text will appear at the top saying ¨the grid is not 90° and red... seems like a anomaly appeared¨ if you get to a choice room the only options are: mini-boss and ??? (??? being the secret boss). each world will have a ceartain rhythim to do in order to summon the anomaly (the hive is melle + speed  (and tecknology is spread in 1 and 5))

Hello, this game is brilliant, but could you maybe lower the amount of damage the small bug swarms can do to you in level 2 (maybe make it so one has to hit you twice to take a heart) because I have had many good runs ended by one of these little demons attacking me while I am dealing with purple/black enemies.

Hello im not new here played this game for weeks and i like it! though i would like a sandbox mode.

i would reccomend a ¨build workshop¨ and a ¨sandbox mode¨

Fire Bullet Concept

Here is an idea, a new note type:

Damage: 1/4 of purple bullet (will 'burn' the enemy 5 more times, same damage, not counting hit damage, will do it 1.5 sec)

Speed: 3/4 of normal speed

Amount: 1

xXnautilusXx's Idea

hey, its me again! my suggestion is, that (whatever they're called) the buffs in the bottom right hand of the screen add to the music itself, defending on what you have in what slot. maybe an off beat hi-hat or something that mixes it up a bit, seeing as the music gets very repetative

Twin Bullet Concept

Here is an idea, a new note type:

Damage: 1 purple note bullet damage (cause we don't know the default number)

Speed: normal bullet speed

Amount: 2, will move like in picture (not 2 copies of thing in picture)

Gertimoshka's Idea

just left feedback, but ill repeat it here in case you dont see it, im also adding more here

 i would recommend making the bosses telegraph their attacks a bit more, as it is now its a bit unfair

there should be difficulty in the full release, 1 hp for hard 3 for medium and 5 for easy, that would make the game a bit more inviting for new players whilst letting better players challenge themselves

i would recommend adding descriptions for each upgrade, and put the joke at the bottom

 i would also recommend making the tutorial explain how different notes effect each other, like how green makes it go faster/farther as well as how some enemies work

i also recommend making doors not close forever and adding a map, though this is least important to me 

this is my recommendations as of now i may update later

Have you ever thought about adding items like other rouge litkes that do little things, like what if you could find an item that made your yellow purple beats explosions explode into more even smaller triangles, maybe that would be one the circle things? but stackable things so you can get even more powerfull past full square mode, like what if there was an item that gave you an additional row of squares to fill, and the scanner bar got fast to scale. Im probably suggestiong to much and it may even be annoying to try to read this, but like, another item could be an addition equipment row, so you could hold 2 riot shields or a riot shield and a domino or something. I notice that if you dodge on beat, you lose that attack, and i feel like that is A LOT of wasted potential! what if when you dodged on beat it did something based on your squares, your solo yellow would dpuble in size, you pink would shoot five, your blue would deal double damage and green would make you dodge far further.  I also feel as though a lock and key system could work nicely, perhaps its a bit too much for the vibe you have going on, but fighting a mini boss could drop a key that can be used after beating the boss of that stage to get a bonus item/equipment/square etc. Sorry about such the long comment its probably bothersome to read these, but i made this account just to comment. i think this game is so amazing and way too captivating, its on my steam wishlist and i cant wait to rack up hours! huge props you and everyone else who worked on this. Thanks for reading and i look forward to a reply.

if i could make a suggestion how about starting with 3 notes not applied yet so the player can put them in whatever they want without modding the game  love your game :)

I know its kinda sudden, but the game kinda needs a new world, and not just any world. It is a world where every legendary power-up you get in the first world, is the basic thing is the new world. I'm saying this because for me, it became repetitive whenever i pass lvl 20. Kudos to you and the team for creating an amazing game.

can we have checkpoint?
