This game has so much potential but unfortunately seems to fall short on execution. The directional rhythm mechanic itself is so amazing though, that I'm still giving this game a 5. The level design is a bit unfortunate in that it does not create a gradual enough progression. The music is not quite rhythmic or percussive as this game demands. I'd love to see a version of necrodancer or something similar with this movement mechanic though!

I honestly don't understand why this game got such a high rating. The mechanic is interesting enough, but the skill/learning curve is way off. The training levels are at half the speed of the real thing and it's completely unforgiving for no other reason than the presumed cool factor of being hardcore.

"These tutorials are inadequate for what's coming" Well yeah... They are much slower, much smaller, and don't even contain the horizontal form that occurs 30% through 3-X. Not to complain, but you do break the rule of one-miss-and-game-over standards... it's a little unfair that one miss makes us start over, with no way to practice, on a difficult section that doesn't occur anywhere else.

So....have you thought about releasing the songs as ringtones (or even just mp3s) that we could download after we've finished the whole thing? That'd be kind of awesome :D

Fun enjoyable game. Fantastic beats, more so 2-X & 3-X. Recorded 3-X and put it on YT. Requires a decent combo of ears, eyes, fingers. I played this game with headphones on, recommend.

still have not got past level 1-x after days of trying (no, i have no rhythm) and i really wish the game had stats. how many times you've died, per level. how many tries it took you to get through each level the first time. how many minutes (hours, days....) of playtime it took to get through each level the first time.

I've got no rhythm! I'm liking this game but I'm stuck at 2-x. At about 57% in you turn a corner and the stage flips and I can't keep the rhythm for the life of me! Someone please commiserate with me!!!

add controls that make the fire and ice circles follow your thing like a is south or something and d is west or whatever that way is and w is south (so a isnt south) s is something idk what it is

Nice game. Great music. Challenging, fun and addictive. But I do agree with others about some of the visuals. A little distracting. Maybe some options to customize/disable would be nice.
Great Job though, I just wasted a bunch of homework time.

I think that I REALLY hate the spins. Knowing that the verticals are off-beats, when the map spins them to horizontal, I can't quite get them. So frustrating, and not really in the good way the rest is. Love the speed changes!!!

I have been doing all game but 3-x with middle finger and after a lot of struggling on 3-x, I switched to pointer finger and did it on the first try xD

somewhat overly hard 2-x is strange not even metnioning 3-x as u get the timing down perfectly after like 50 times and u then suddenly miss straight lines.....

This is too frustrating due to you having to perfectly time every mouse press for 1:30 straight and no checkpoints. You just fail if you're off by a tiny bit and all the hard work and perfect timing leading up to that is thrown into the gutter. It feels like a slap in the face. I've beaten the first stage but instant fail mechanics have never been fun to me. I see you were straying away from the percent completion mechanics purposely though, and for that 4/5. Easy mode where there's checkpoints or some sort of forgiveness mechanic for the casual gamers would probably net you more plays and a higher rating. You're kind of forced to play on hard mode because that's how it is by default :p
