Sixtar Gate: STARTRAIL is an interesting VSRG. The interesting gimmick of mixing 4K and 5K has drawn me in. The appeal of all the customisation options and settings is really nice too. Not to mention the themes and extras you get from the dlcs as well. My only peeve (for lack of better word, not really an issue) is that there's no graphic or animation for when you full combo or all perfect (Pure Blue in this game), there is the little voiceover but it's not as satisfying. And the other thing is I started with the assist skin as I don't have much experience with 4/5K so seeing the keys I've binded helped quite a bit. I really enjoyed the visual animation of the track shrinking and expanding between 4K and 5K, when I finally went to try the other skins, I noticed they *did not* shrink and expand. While I get that it might be designed with the beginner in mind, in my opinion I feel it more visually aesthetic with the track shrinking and expanding compared to 5K at all times but sometimes without the middle key. But otherwise I've really enjoyed everything else from the tracks (hopefully they get more packs in the future), all the settings the game allows is quite extensive and there being different games modes as well. Would recommend :3

Sixtar Gate: STARTRAIL has amazing music, combining popular songs from other rhythm games with original pieces by unique artists like yomoha and Sound Souler. This variety keeps the experience fresh and interesting, especially for people who enjoy rhythm games. The gameplay design is unique, with Solar Mode making the chart switch between 6K and 7K. Since it’s like 4K/5K with two FX notes, it’s easier for beginners to pick up and get used to. The game also has well-designed charts, especially the gimmicky Mystic charts in Outer Space mode. Sixtar Gate takes a lot of inspiration from DJMAX, but it’s still missing some of the deeper elements that make DJMAX special, leaving it with room for improvement. Also, since the game is still in Early Access, there are bugs that need frequent patches from the developers. Key modes like Online Play (Unity Quest) and License Test (Dan) still need to be added back to make the game more complete. The Switch version already has a story mode, and I hope to see this feature on the Steam version too. Though it still has a few rough edges, I believe Sixtar Gate has the potential to become a top-tier rhythm game, possibly on par with arcade classics in the future. MORE COLLABORATION PLS!!

Music selection is pretty great. No 4 button or 6 button, only 5 button or 7 button which sucks ass

Excellent rhythm game with a wide list of songs (Touhou, EDM, amazings originals), lot of customizations options (skins, judgement changes). It features 2 games modes Solar (the hard one with 7 keys) and Lunar Mode (with 5 keys only). UI is beautiful and fluid. Strangely it also have daily rewards (no microtransactions though) for currency that allow to buy music, icons, etc... A good alternative to DJMAX or EZ2ON for example.

Very underrated game, this unique gameplay switching 4k to 5k has made this game one of the best rhythm games I ever played, while it's still lack of features compared to its compeititor (lack of calibration, online is very still barebone, lack of real progression), the game has good original songs and fun charts that will get you engage in the game for a long time. The problem of the game is also the part that makes the game best, and that is the 4k to 5k playstyle. It is not an easy game for casual players and even a more difficult game for 4k players only, having to familiarize with both keymodes simultaneously can be overwhelming if they have never have experienced with 5k, especially when there are red notes (they function either like FX notes from soundvortex or side track from Djmax).
