I've never played parappa before this, so I had a really hard time with the first song. but I ended up completing the demo shortly after getting used to the controls. I love this game and can't wait for a full release.
I am absolutely in love with this game and I can't wait for the full release! I would love to see a port to Android if that would be possible, I've got a couple of Android game handhelds I'd love to play this on!
Firstly, I'm in love with this demo! The music and the art is so catchy and charming! I for one can't wait for a full release!
Second, there's a couple of bugs I think you ought to know about: the most important of which is that when remapping your controller, in order to remap specifically the buttons which are both face-buttons and the "select" and "back" buttons it forces you to clear the buttons which are start and select because it causes a conflict (despite the fact that those settings are technically conflicting by default).
The other bug I found was that if your status is "lo-fi" at the very end of Poppin' Grease in quick-play mode all the background chatter of dissatisfied customers keeps going into the rank screen and doesn't stop until you go back to the menu (which was admittedly amusing).
These bugs aren't so bad that you'd need to fix the demo specifically so long as they're not in the full release. All the other notes I have are really minor things (like how the score meter at the end of each song fills really slowly and is unskipable, and how an audio indicator for when it's your turn to sing would be helpful).
Really looking forward to seeing development updates and eventually a full release!!! <3
I love the style of the music and art, but the core rhythm gameplay needs some fixes. There’s no (easy) way to tell, when playing a song for the first time, whether the phrase is going to spread out over 1 line, 2 lines or half a line. Half a line is visible at least, but it’s still quite hectic to react to. Consider adding an audio and visual cue like a record scratch when the track switches from NPC to player.
Also on the McWave Burger level, one of the longer phrases extends out of the bar across the screen, then wraps over into the second line. It’s very difficult to play for that reason.
Also please make the notes opaque instead of translucent on the note bar! It’s hard to see them during a game!
I like the artistic direction and the parappa type gameplay but I have alotta gripes with most of the gameplay... Call and response is very difficult as there isn't a build up towards the first note or anything to CLEARLY let you know that your part is coming, control scheme is hella unintuitive and feels like driving a truck through mud even on controller (especially for record notes [using a dpad or stick since ps4 sticks will make two inputs if you're off the axis by even a bit]) (Controls might be TOO ambitious...), music is a bit rough due to tts being off key at times, overworld is barren and a bit large given the character's fov and sprite size, you cant interact with stuff that looks interactable in the overworld (passed out fellar in front of your house right off the rip? [At least a textbox would be nice), people have exclamation marks over their heads when they have nothing new to say, unsatisfying feedback from Melodii's response during songs (no sound or clear indicator that you did well other than the numbers at the end) (Melodii reacting to the player's verse is an option). I LOVE THE ADAPTIVE CUTSCENES BASED ON WRONG OR RIGHT NOTES AMAZING DECISION.
Again, really cool ideas but the gameplay design makes it really hard to enjoy... IM HELLA ROOTING FOR THE CONTINUED IMPROVEMENT OF THE GAME.
Viruses are shown to be in the games files. For those dying to play right now, have an antivirus ready to fight. Those who don't wanna risk it, wait until they remove the virus.
Maybe actually explain what they are instead of just saying "experience" I actually went into the files and sifted through everything that was available, and there was nothing. Maybe you clicked an ad or something?
make sure u unzip it with winrar or 7zip (7zip better) and make sure all the files in a correct position if this doesnt work try putting it as non-steam game on steam
I'm not very good with this type of stuff so I'm probably doing something wrong, but when i start the game up it says "The code execution cannot proceed because UnityPlayer.dll was not found."
if you dont have a controller i dont really recommend playing this game, but this game is AMAZING if you get a controller, i even got an A on nami.wav :D
are you trying it with USB or bluetooth, and what controller is it? (i only know how to use PS4 controller btw) if ur using a ps4 controller via bluetooth you need to press the share button and the middle button at the same time, the light on top should start flashing and then you need to go to the bluetooth configuration page and search for it then you just connect it and youre good to go. hope this helped :D
its an USB xbox controller, so it has nothing to do with that.
An azerty keyboard option, or at least permitting to change the keys would be a big improvement, because it's really impossible to play for me right now
I believe new non-Parappa plaers would appreciate a turn timer and "next up", so that they know exactly when they have to play after the computer. Plus there are players who are caught offguard by the solo lines.

So you know the line? There's a bug with it.
Basically, the symbols on the line are inconsistently placed (for the keyboard symbols at least I'm not sure about the other ones).
Please fix it I have OCD
this is actually cold ng

Are there plans to port this game to MacBook (apple computers)?
just use wine to run it on macs and theres no need to say what macs are in paranthasees since everyone knows what they are
i'm wondering if i can play this game with just a keyboard.
is a controller required to play the game?
no, but you do need to go into the settings and manually change it to keyboard, there should be an option for it
no just use up down left right w a and q and e
this is exactly what I've been looking for!
omg, this is giving me Parappa the Rappa vibes!
When i try to download it says failed - forbidden, what do i do ?
Edit : nvm i can download it now (can someone please still like tell me why this happened)
I'm goanna try and mod this game
never mind i have no idea what I'm doing.

Great work other than that, keep it up!
great game!

This was really fun! It really gave me "PaRappa" vibes while also improving on that base formula. Can't wait for the full release! :D
I NEED THE FULL RELEASE ALREADY I'M SO TUNED INTO THIS GAME

wut 👁👄👁
Yes, there are viruses in the game, I know from experience
Maybe actually explain what they are instead of just saying "experience" I actually went into the files and sifted through everything that was available, and there was nothing. Maybe you clicked an ad or something?
That may be a false positive or you got it from somewhere sketchy.
wait what
what kinda virus
was it triggered by your antivirus? if so, that is especially common with files downloaded from the internet
if you legit found a virus you installed from an unofficial website
this site has NO viruses for this game
I have this problem too. My antivirus found file "threat provider" inside this game. I have no idea what to do
nuh uh
What are the controls for PC? I'm so confused dude
you can change button prompts to keyboard in settings. Although the game is recommended to use a controller
This game is amazing! I can't be the only one who hears creepy yandere music when you fast-forward the intro of Stir & Mix, right?
hope to see this on steam so i can wishlist it
Baking cookies for my love! I'll stir and mix!❤
Baking cookies for your love! You stir and mix!❤
He deserves icing and sprinkles! YES ALL OF IT!❤
How long has this butter been out to sit?😱
What will I do if he hates me?!💔
I'm sure she won't!❤
Will baked goods set his heart free?💞
MAN I DON'T KNOW!😔
I want him to be mine for our feelings to combine!💞❤
I wanna!❤
I WANNA!❤
I WANNAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
is making btw not baking :D (just saying dont attck me)
i copied it off google.
This game is so cool and stylish!!
plz add joy-con support. the game can connect to it but it wont respond to it
will you be adding mac support?
run it via wine for macos
i tried and it worked for a bit then bugged out, also I'm talking about the full release
This is so goood omg !!!!!!!!!!
wow nice game!!!!!!
what are the controls for PC?
you cannot read
when im opening the file it doesnt work can somebody say huw to fix this (please)
make sure u unzip it with winrar or 7zip (7zip better) and make sure all the files in a correct position if this doesnt work try putting it as non-steam game on steam
I'm not very good with this type of stuff so I'm probably doing something wrong, but when i start the game up it says "The code execution cannot proceed because UnityPlayer.dll was not found."
make sure there is the unity player in the folder with the game
what would i do if there wasn't? i tried redownloading
I do have it though, UnityPlayer.dll
All works perfectly except for the left button on my controllers dpad didn't work at all. Had to use analog stick.
When ever i start a song it gets stuck on the start of the beginign cutscene and then i can hear the msuic but cant play anyhelp!
Good but super overwhelming if I play on pc. And no, I don't have a controller.
if you dont have a controller i dont really recommend playing this game, but this game is AMAZING if you get a controller, i even got an A on nami.wav :D
Yeah this is the disadvantage of scratching melody.
You actually can play on pc,go on settings and in controls put pc
i've been trying to play it but my controller smh isn't working and there is no azerty option :(
are you trying it with USB or bluetooth, and what controller is it? (i only know how to use PS4 controller btw) if ur using a ps4 controller via bluetooth you need to press the share button and the middle button at the same time, the light on top should start flashing and then you need to go to the bluetooth configuration page and search for it then you just connect it and youre good to go. hope this helped :D
when he said there is no azerty option he means that he can't play if he doesn't know the controls for the Latin keyboard
its an USB xbox controller, so it has nothing to do with that.
An azerty keyboard option, or at least permitting to change the keys would be a big improvement, because it's really impossible to play for me right now
i beat the game wkth azerty? you js gotta know the locations of letters imo
Well I found it just a hassle tbh 🥲 Still think there should be an option to change keys
I believe new non-Parappa plaers would appreciate a turn timer and "next up", so that they know exactly when they have to play after the computer. Plus there are players who are caught offguard by the solo lines.
This is so much fun! Songs are good, gameplay is really good, It's really fun to try and go for highscores!
