What players say
Puzzle design needs more refinement. Needs more interface cues that emphasize the intended progression you are to seek. Without these, it leads to frustration and blind trial and error. If the concepts of chord/melody progressions could be boiled down to more minimal gamified visual indicators on the base linear path of each level I think this game could be a lot more fun. Both the success and fail/try again sounds...
