That felt really good to play! The tutorial and easy mode had a bit slow start, but once I tried some of the other levels in normal or hard difficulty, I really had the satisfaction of playing along the music. The visuals are really intuitive and allow complex chains without needing too much learning. Using colors to identify the numbers of keys is smart! Although I had some trouble to do 3-notes combo that use both up and down, I didn't found a hand position that felt natural for them. Sound-design wise, the note validation sound felt also out of place, although I don't know by what it could be replace, and it has the merit to be subtle. Overall this is a really great rhythm game!
3-notes with up & down are a little bit tricky to get used to, but in the upcoming v0.0.3, which will have custom keybinds, hopefully players can find their most comfortable way to play it.
About the note validation sound, I will try a few other sounds to see which will be the best one, maybe letting players choose the sound effect like the other rhythm games will be cool too!
