Description
Team up with Conductor to save DJ Grooves in this challenging BIT.TRIP inspired rhythm autorunner!

DJ Grooves invited you to his annual disco party, which takes place on the 1st day of April. Every year, birds of all shapes and sizes come by to dance and hang out! But unlike every other year, this one feels... off. And those feelings were valid. Grooves goes missing exactly 42 minutes after the party starts and Rhythm Aliens invade! Conductor scoffs at how foolish Grooves was to let that happen, but he knows better than to let some alien kidnap and probe his long time rival. He wouldn't have anyone to be in 2nd place at the movie awards otherwise. But don't be fooled: these aliens have a mighty groove!

My submission for the 2024 April Fools mod jam! Nothing untoward here, surely.

I don't know anything about the steam deck. Mods are usually not stable on it from what I have heard. But you just need to press your attack button like the normal game

does this mod support the steam deck default layout? I ask bc nothing happens when I hit X like it says to do when I need to attack.

This level was very cool, makes very interesting use of mechanics and the presentation (in-game and cutscenes) is very impressive. I especially like the prize corner, as an incentive to replay and give some rewards for challenges.
I had some frustrations with the difficulty, but it was fun to overcome. My main gripes are that there was no immunity after releasing the ice hat, some actions (like attacking) stopped you being able to interact so you had to act earlier than you'd expect, and the third section was hard to sightread. Otherwise, my only other issue was how far apart the checkpoints were, but that's not really an objective issue, just how the difficulty is set up.

@Weynik000 This is based on BIT.TRIP RUNNER, a game that predates geometry dash by 3 years

wait did you make this without even knowing what Geometry Dash is?!
