Pros (4) [*]Good Music. [*]Custom soundtrack support. [*]Animations that kept me interested. [*]Workshop support, with a good amount of mods. Cons (1) [*]Sometimes it lags. Which is very disheartening when you are on a good streak then you get messed up due to something completely out of your control. Don't ask me how a 2d platformer lags either. i can and have played much more intensive games without any issue. Processor: AMD Ryzen 9 5900HS with Radeon Graphics 3.30 GHz Concusion The pros i have listed are beyond my expectations for a random game i bought for less then $3 and i personally use this as a cognitive test, to get an idea of how good my reaction time is/how awake i am to play other stuff. In conclusion i can recommend this game to you if you like rhythm games. Inputs for intense Also these inputs work on difficulties below intense too, so you can practice using dual inputs on easy or medium. On keyboard For the circles you need to use WASD. The arrows you use Up, Down, Left, Right. Controllers it's left stick for arrows, right stick for circles. OR... Xbox Dpad for arrows. Circles: Y = up, X= Left, B = Right, A = Down. Playstation Dpad for arrows. Circles: Triangle = up, square = left, circle = right, X = down. Overlord Same rules as above in terms of dual input however you need to press both inputs at the same time for circles and arrows.

This game is SO addictive with it's challenging music generated tracks. Most songs work well with it, but I find that Electronic music, Techno or anything that has a prominent beat work the best. The game won't reject a song that doesn't work well, it will just make the track based on 'energy peaks' rather than beats per minute. Also, it helps if you know the song that you're going to play; don't just randomly play a song, listen to it first. All of this is just my personal opinion, it might be different for you!

Finally reviewing it after nearly a decade. The artstyle is awesome, but the gameplay is hella boring. The metronome thingy barely works, and there's too little buttons to press during X amount of time. You just... watch. Recommended because 2B mod exists (but the vanilla girls are awesome too)

Good music game, would highly recommend it. It's a bit hard but it's fun lol

Really good game, at first it might seem kinda challenging to play, but if you practice it becomes easy-peasy. You have no limitations when it comes to the music you wanna incorporate. Also, for en even better experience I highly recommend anime songs and generally upbeat music. All in all, definitely an outstanding game.
