Interesting game! Though I don't quite understand what I'm doing. I managed to win a round by pressing buttons randomly on the beat, but it's not clear to me what the strategy is supposed to be  (other than staying on beat).

yeah, basically that's what it's about. Staying to the beat doing "different" moves (but doesn't matter much what sequence, just that they are varied). We didn't get to dive a lot into the gameplay and I'll always lament it.
