Cadence Review — The Geekly Grind Logic meets rhythm in Cadence, a puzzle game where the reward is hearing your solution come together. A short, clever puzzler with satisfying trial-and-error design and a creative musical twist.

Cadence from @thefuntastic.bsky.social is a rewarding puzzler with a music element. It also has a fun sandbox mode that lets you make music! I love the art direction.

Say you've been working on a game for 13 years without saying you've been working on a game for 13 years...

It's been a bit bizarre and frustrating securing coverage for Cadence, but then you discover that small creator has made an absolute gem of a review and it puts a smile on your face!

What's that, just a casual FRONT PAGE OF THE FREAKING APP STORE!!

It came up in a recent interview: I distinctly remember baby me asking you for advice on music games and your response was "Run" and me totally ignoring it.

Should've listened 😅. But hey at least the world has one more ode to musical games!

Thank you so much! That was lovely!!

Cadence was born in the same game jam as Mini Metro. To see it on the same best of list, despite coming out more than a decade apart it's breaking my brain in the best way possible! 🤯

This is wonderful. A chill puzzler that at times feels like wiring up old synths, but in a manner that’s entirely approachable. Perfect fodder for fans of puzzles and/or people who like making chill audio loops. There’s also a built-in construction kit so you can fashion your own levels and melodies

@eddybox.bsky.social I don't think we've ever met at any events, but just wanted to say osmos is probably one of my favourite games from the early days of the app store... Was very influential on me as a baby game dev!

Also didn't realise you worked on Gibbon. A++ Execution!!

That's some great environmental storytelling! Hope you survive, emotionally and physically ;)

If my therapy bills are anything go by you made a wise choice to not chase the dragon! 😅

Glad you're enjoying the look of it!

You're not the only one! Ironically I'm actually an android user myself - but with my limited resources I want to make sure the game has an audience before I take on supporting the Android zoo of devices :)

This is like those EDM songs with Alan Watts talks layered in

I reached the end with just a few bonus levels left, mostly through trial and error and intuition. It's not a long game in that sense, and I don't have the mind for the sandbox, but it's serene, uplifting, and beautiful

Do check it out

Amazing! Thank you for still being around!

Sending an email to kickstarter backers is a good idea that's on my list! But my battery is running empty so might be a few days!

Probably not any universe any time soon... but I'm excited to see what the audio community does with it!

Oh damn, that's amazing! Thanks for being one of the OG followers!

Think it's the universe trying to teach about the illusion of control... or something :'D

So after managing to get hold of Valve turns out I found a recently introduced bug in their backend. It's fixed now but today as launch day has completely sailed...

Feels like the universe is trying to teach me a lesson here...

Though my changes yesterday were to the store page - and the store checklist is all green.

While workshop stuff is a steampipe setting. Have tried everything I can think of. Reuploading the image. Changing the image. Turning it on and off again... No dice :/

Yeepppp..... I think it's because updated a capsule image yesterday and clicked an option to clear a cache.

However, the "missing" asset is a workshop banner.

And here we can see said workshop banner, working perfectly fine on Steam...

Me: Spends 13 years making game.
Also me: Wakes up on release day to find the big RELEASE YOUR GAME button on Steam is no longer there...

AFAICT, I'm "missing" an image that I've had for six years?!? Waiting for a response to my support ticket and feeling very defeated right now...

Life long windows user (game dev).

M series was the thing that made me switch...

Btw this is also the exclusive premiere of the new trailer! I don't know if people still care about trailers anymore, but I gots one!

Irony: the game is the best its ever been! But interest has waned to it's lowest point.

Signal boosts hugely appreciated! :)
