This game is too underrated. It's a wonderful experience with great music, enjoyable gameplay with different ways to play, and gorgeous (if a bit distracting) visuals. I also really like the concept; a reversed shooter that's actually a rhythm game is pretty unique and it's executed perfectly. A must-play for fans of rhythm games.

I had once played this game 10 years ago on my brother's PS3. I thought I would never play it again until I looked up "spaceship rythm game PS3" some time ago and was astonished to see it still had a steam page. Super fun game with great music and awesome graphics and fun features.
