I have lost a lot of my vsion in July 2024 and was quite upset to not be able to play one of my favorite games anymore, (Project Diva). Even with the mods they now have, it still isn't enough to make it playable for me. I asked around and someone recommended me this game, and I will say that I am able to paly Project Diva once again! The dimming of backgrounds and no music video helps with my light sensitivity, and the ability to make the notes bigger helps so much. Being able to import project diva songs with all the added stuff from above just makes me excited to be able to play my favorite game again. It did take me a bit to configure it just like how I like on PlayStation, but eventually I got it all set correctly. Thank you for all your hard work!

What a FANTASTIC platform for button mashing rhythm players. Really appreciate the work the community has made on the DIVA skin and various charts. In my skill level which is max 9 on songs I listen to all the time and live in my brain there are plenty of charts in the community which provide a fair challenge to better my skills. Thank you so much for making this EIRTeam and community! <3

The game lacks the essential juice that makes rhythm games engaging. In rhythm games, JUICE IS EVERYTHING. It's the instant feedback from the game and overall fluidity of the UI that synchronizes with the music that make the game feel satisfying and fun with each played chart. The Project Heartbeat menus feel bland and generic, and the visualizer during the charts is dull, making it hard to feel excited while playing. Take osu! as an example: its UI is responsive, dynamic, and playful. There's a visualizer in the menu representing the audio waves, subtle glowing cues when beats change—everything about it screams, "Play me! You're awesome!" Feels like the whole interface is alive and flows with the rhythm. This game would really benefit from borrowing some of that energy, or even better, from taking a step back and thinking about what makes rhythm games so appealing in the first place: their visuals, their JUICE. Mechanically, the game is solid. But in terms of visuals it feels really bland. And in rhythm games, looking and feeling bland is a death sentence. Players want to be engaged by the visuals and feedback, not just the mechanics. Without that, the game becomes uninviting. Oh, and the scoring system is strange compared to Diva Megamix.

Not for me sadly. I will use osu! terms to describe why I can't really play this well. The approach rate of the objects is very long, thus there are always a lot of objects on the screen. The timing window can be changed, but that doesn't mean it will change how quickly the flying objects approach. Also similar to osu!taiko, I get the keys confused. That one is mostly just practice, but I've tried this in other games too, and it's sadly just not for me. I would like to see more than just BPM and difficulty when selecting a song. For example the timing window, approach rate, note per second. I do like that it shows beforehand what kind of notes are gonna be in the chat. Wish I could rate it neutral tbh for me at least.
