Game is dead now unfortunately as no one really knows about it anymore and this is sad because this is a very cool rhythm game and it also has a surprisingly good story. Everything is good in this game: the music, the mechanics, the menus. Unfortunately the developers rarely update the game and the players can't create their own level so there isn't anything new. Overall it's a good rhythm game that wasn't too hard for me.

A good singleplayer game with potential to be extremely fun with friends but the lack of custom level editor just makes this game irrelevant in the long run, rhythm games live and die by their content and this one has very little replayability unfortunately Still worth its price but probably the greatest wasted potential in its genre

I play this game in real life but instead of dodging random shapes that look like monsters I throw myself into oncoming traffic whilst listening to spotify
