Feb. 2025
Certainly a fun game. Not the prettiest or deepest, but there is plenty of things to do that you just cannot do in any other game. The game works well, has some interesting mechanics and is fun to play. There is a certain "grindy" aspect to it, but it doesn't feel annoying or like it's just there to prolong the the game unnecessarily. The grind feels like a natural part of how you grow as a musician. And before you know it, you make plenty of money off of playing gigs. One thing that i feel is missing, is a way to hang with your band mates. All in all a fun game that could certainly be improved in a lot of places, but a game that captures the feel of my local music scene and gives you the chance to be a hard working and successful band that no other game can give you.

Game is very addicting. I like the little in depth things that happen as you play. One bad decision can cause you problems later. If possible and should additional band members are added in the future, i think a sax player would be really cool. I hope further developments continue. Love the game.

Really fun game, but the reason this game is better than others to me is the love and care his developper has for it. So many changes (big and small) were made because Todd from Gilligames listened to feedback is amazing.

interesting game from this solo dev. amazingly still minor updates/patches 4 years on! gets repetitive end-game and progresses very slow, but there is a lot of dynamicism and nuances in this game. i'm still working to be the top rock band 70+ hours in, but I am enjoying the grind, which is a rare sentiment nowadays. thank you gilligame
