Really fun game, especially for music students. Too bad my computer doesn't react quick enough... Really enjoying it.
Haha, if you can do it blind then at least it's a testament that the game's timing isn't screwing up! And that you have very accurate rhythm to within +-70 milliseconds, which is what 3-X demands :P

I was a bit disappointed finding out there were no extra levels after 3X :( Pretty cool game, though!
If I may offer a few suggestions, I would drop the current level-like menu for a more classic one. I guess you are still developing the game to add new tracks, so I'd just have a more standard menu that would allow you pick whichever level, possibly with a difficulty rating of sorts. Also, that menu could show what score you had on each level (depending on precision? % of completion?) and an option to just hear the tunes (maybe only if the level was completed? Or not). Also, instead of forcing the tutorials before each levels, I'd just condense the tutorials so they show all kinds of rhythms and mechanics and make it a separate playable thing. Maybe with its own menu, depending on what mechanic you want to practice exactly...

It might just be my computer but the calibration is just out of sync for me too. The thing is that I use the click of my mouse on the upbeat to keep in time so I've got a constant rhythm going, but the game sets me at some inconsistent timings. I think it might be device latency due to me using a wireless. I used my keyboard and it's the same thing, so it honestly might just be me getting frustrated. I honestly think it might be my computer's response time to key input. I understand that's not your fault then. I'll fix the rating because it is actually a fairly good game and I'm sure you worked hard on all the tunes as well.
Ah ok, sorry about your problems then. If the calibration itself doesn't show you being consistent when you really are, then there is something wrong. (For most people I would suspect first that they just think they are consistent, as I've witnessed this in real life way too many times, but I trust your drumming experience!). I always intended for the timing to be super strict, and I guess the consequence is that there's a higher chance for someone else's computer to have problems with it. I'd be interested to see if you have problems with my other rhythm game here on Kong, which is also super strict but written in Flash instead. That would at eliminate Unity being the problem. Thanks for being considerate with the rating!

Suggestions: 1. The ability to practice on one part of a level; 2. Level preview (plays automatically so you have an idea how the beat sounds on each part)

I'm a drummer for 8 years, frankly, you need to sync your music better. It's frustrating as hell when I'm on a straight path and it marks me wrong for no reason. 3/5 only because the damn tunes are catchy.
hey, the game being perfectly accurate is very important to me, and I've put many measures in place to ensure it's accurate, given that your computer is powerful enough so it doesn't lag. Have you tried recalibrating? According to the statistics I have here for your username, you haven't recalibrated consistently. If you can get an A (or an S) in consistency for the calibration, and it is still out of sync, could you please message me? I'd like to get to the bottom of it. Thanks! You should be able to, since you've been drumming for 8 years.

For the love of god it's frustrating to start from 3-X (1x) every time I come back. Can we have the option to select the speed manually please?

i like the music but there should be checkpoints at least because when your at theat one point and you just stuff up it's so annoying

really expected level 3x to be absoulutely terrifying after the last tutorial when it said these tutorials arent nearly enough to prepare you for whats ahead, still really hard but not as bad as expected, thought there'd turns and off beats and tempo changes galore but just turns :P fun game though

I like that you can use any key on the keyboard to activate the beat.
I happened to be using the C key.
C also clears all your data with no confirmation when you are on the main menu.
Oh well.....

FIZZD, atleast I didn't have to steal a title from Game of Thrones just for some recogniztion so Greg would give this game badges. 1/5 still stands, this game is awful.

This game is really freaking hard, wowza. I have no rhythm, I know that, but geeze, this is tough, even just going by the visuals. Great job transforming a beat into a path like that, that's really cool.

Worst badge game I've played in ages. It's too finicky, and the music doesn't always sync up right. I regret having spent time on this game.

not really difficult, just stupidly annoying when the game doesn't recognize I hit a key when I do.
I'd rather have just the music without having to play this game.

I think I found a bug, whenever you complete 3-x, and you get to (1.1x) it's all okay, but whenever you close out the game for some time and then come back to it after some time, it just reverts back to (1x)

The only reason I have success in this game is because of my many hours of playtime on OSU. Both great games though :)

Loving the game - to anyone struggling you may find it easier to listen and anticipate the beat rather than just rely on the visual cues. Once you know the early section of an x level well enough (due to repeatedly failing one of the later bits, it happens to everyone) it's actually quite possible to do it with your eyes closed.
I just wish there was some way to practice later sections of x levels without having to repeatedly go through the first 16 bars again and again and again...

I'm having to start wondering if I'm having moments of passing out or something, because sometimes I swear I click as the front edge of the ball touches the square, and suddenly it's on the far side.

WHY!!!! 5 blocks left..... love the beat though. Played Sax in High School. Keep wanting to follow the guitar rather than the beat itself...
