I had a lot of fun with this one, I tried to make a simple concept and focus more on the replay value and the fun competitve nature of it rather than over-complicating it with feature bloat and more bits-and-bobs that people wouldn't see. I think the thing I'd learned is that people tend to only play these games for a few minutes each when judging so first impressions are everything. This is also the first time I made the music myself and it's the highest score I'd ever got in that category so maybe I'm not as awful at making noise as I thought I was!
