Correction about my previous comment after having tried a complex song: Learning to play guitar IS FROM FAR EASIER than getting bronze on a complex song here. Got the badge of the day so I will return playing my guitar and forget this game.

Got gold on the 1st song at first try. I guess that being a guitarist was helpful but I tend to agree with who said that learning to play guitar is probably easier than mastering this game.

To those who got the easy badge, you deserve 60 points. To those who got the impossible badge, you deserve an instant promotion to level 65, as you are clearly gods. I for one, will just work on tomorrow's badge instead.

I think this is the most irritating game I have ever played, half of notes just get missed no matter what ever you do...

Oops, just tried the rightclick pause option (like I would use on Bloons TD for example) but it seems the song keeps playing, my apologies.

Del, I am sure there is a volume control on your computer somewhere. (Still weird to play a music game without any sound so mayby just 'lower' the volume manually a tad). Rightclick the game to pause the flash-player. Don't look for problems, look for easy simple solutions and you will have to spend less time complaining about everything and enjoy yourself a bit more.

The lack of a mute button is a bad design choice. I don't need to hear the OBSCENELY LOUD! music constantly. The lack of a pause button is also a bad choice given how long the songs are.

kong is becoming very repetitive having the same types of games on the homepage and being game of the day. newgrounds seems to be succeeding in promoting diversified games.
not much in this game that is any different than the other guitar games--- besides the songs.for some this game probaly become monotonous, for many others --frustrating.

With all due respect, this series is awesome, but can Kongregate stop making these Games of the Day? We had SCGMD2 three weeks ago. Once in a while is fine, and to be frank I believe that the haters flamming the game are just frustrated. But- Not everyone's fingers are nimble enough for these games. Just saying, but personally I think that they should not be GotD so frequently. The purpose of Games of the Day is to let us experience new games and attracting potential players. In this case, the Kongregate staff failed miserably. Although, I must repeat, I have nothing against the game, and if played with the aim of pure enjoyment instead of earning badges this game is wonderful.

Guys, I have played this before and yes, there can be some lag (especially when they go overboard on effects). My advice if you want the badge of the day: always hit the key slightly earlier than when it lines up. Always, no matter what. And try not to be too harsh on the game; it's not its fault that it got chosen, that would be the guy that's picking these games.

Anyone having issues with this game clearly just has 0 sense of rhythm. I was able to get the Impossible badge on a 2+ year old computer, any "lag" you're getting is your brain not being able to time keystrokes with the beat of a song.

this game is not worth it, it isnt lenient enough on the timing to account for flash's key read times, have you ever noticed when typing in a flash game sometimes it takes a while to pick up what your typing? its an issue with flash, not just lag on your computer. it makes this game nigh impossible, and rage inducing.

OK. This is it. Until now I just ignored the series of this crappy piece of lag. But everytime they make one of it botd I get very angry and frustrated. From now on I will try to find and rate 1/5 every sequel before it even gets badges. Can' t even understand, why the first of these impossible badges are labled easy, medium and hard.
It' s not, that I don' t like games of this genre... but this im implemented very poorly. Might be, that there are people out there with no lag (or not that much) but we others are simply not rich enough to have a new alienware every 3 months. I 'played' (means I did what the game told me to - but it just lags enough or does not recognize my keys to give me a mistake) the first four songs. The 'easy' one now about seven times. My new highscore is 4436. Not a single award point. No level unlocked. No badge. No fun. No motivation to carry on.

Welcome to Lagger King, may I take your order please? "I'd like an In Your Eyes by Verax. Hold some of the notes in place, then punish us for missing them." Would you like a medal with that? "Yes, please. Gold, but not perfect. I'd like the pain to take away, please." Okay. It'll all be over in four minutes.

Why is everyone whining? Easy badge is super easy, I got a gold on my first try on the first song, and BAM easy badge in the bag.

Dirty trick hack - play this with the speakers off. Try it.... my sense of timing throws me off - you have to hit the keys fractionally too early to get it right.

4 Stars. Great game, great addition to the genre. Would love to have some easier slower soul/blues type songs added for those of us with clumsy fingers (for 5th star). Also, some classical to mix it up.

> make game that relies on hitting multiple keys at once
> acknowledge this in a note
> don't allow keys to be remapped
1/5, will probably be trolled again in some other BotD.
