DJ Bunny sees you putting together music tracks for people using a puzzling grid that weaves together instruments to create songs.
This is a musical puzzle game where you find yourself becoming a rabbit who wants to rock tunes for the crowd. Most bunnies find themselves digging holes for the rest of their lives, but you feel that you want to follow your musical dream to become a DJ in a city a bit far away.
You’ve ventured off on your own with your DJ deck and want to play music for anyone who asks to hear what you have to play. Sometimes it’s music that you have heard somewhere – like when it comes to reminding someone of the music you heard on the bus. Other times, it’s music you have made up yourself or songs that use a bunch of instruments you have put together in your own way.
Unlike a lot of music-based games, DJ Bunny isn’t a rhythm game. Instead, to make music, you need to connect a start instrument to an end instrument, using shapes of the same color outline. Some levels have just one start and end to connect, while others have more than one. You will have a grid to work with and a bunch of different shapes, so you will be using the spaces on the grid to sort of connect them. If it’s done right, music will start playing, and that puzzle is complete.
As you progress in the story and continue solving puzzles, they do get more challenging. Soon there is even a turn limit before you lose, which can make the game feel like a more complex puzzle game than you might expect from the cute, hand-drawn visuals that appear in it. I played a bunch of DJ Bunny at Good Game Dev Fest, where I quite liked the puzzle elements of the game. The story of trying to discover yourself and make a path outside of your home town is lovely as well.
DJ Bunny is currently in development, but in the meantime, you can add it to your Steam Wishlist.
