I liked the difficulty curve of the game and how the game is more fun the harder your difficulty is. I also liked that after you finish the game you're given the choice to get rid of the mechanic where you move your note up and down and can only match the directions. It's good because some players might not like this mechanic since it's quite hard to perfectly match it on harder difficulties. Last but not least I think that being able to put in your own songs, videos and images in the game and get levels generated for them is the best part of the game. Overall for this price tag this game provides you with quite a lot of options and content and can be quite fun.

This game is entertaining! I have just started playing but it is nice game to play if you want to take a break from all other serious game. I like how the environment changes in the background as you progress and not missing any notes. The difficulty curve is good too as it gives you a sense of progression and hell yeah! i can change it to my own songs which is a cool feature.

🎵 Ongaku Review Overall: ★★☆☆☆ (Mixed) Hours Played: 0.2 Hey, this is Goldheart, founder of Team SBO. We're currently designing a game and we got inspired by the original Ongaku flash game mechanics for a section of my own. I just learned while talking with the mates that the game I enjoyed playing (even with its flaws on Newgrounds) got remastered and brought to Steam. I was happy with the news, and with the low price point, I bought it immediately. What was installed turned out to be a fever dream the likes of which I was not prepared for. This game isn't entirely bad but... I'll be honest, it just wasn't what I expected, and the Newgrounds version is a little bit better in my opinion. Still, it has a few improvements to the first game, but I'm going to be extremely critical of this game. You deserve it, the devs deserve it. And if they ever read this and my own project goes live... I hope they see it one day, and the impact they've had on my life from their initial title. Here's the official Steam release of Ongaku for PC: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🥁 Gameplay ★★☆☆☆ Core mechanics: They remain the same as the first game but…

It's very very good game! My first time wasn't be very good , but about 5 minutes practice and I've done first map with max points. Dont throw this game to the trash , becasue U need practice. Like I said this is about 5-10 max 15 minutes.

At first I thought the game was too kiddy...but then realized it's (personally) a good change of pace. It just means you can recommend this game to literally anyone at any age. The difficulty curve is quite interesting. Easy mode is indeed a breeze, but on Normal, it becomes something you have to watch out. This doesn't mean it's an unreasonable difficulty spike though; on the contrary, it feels just right. Normal is supposed to be...well, 'normal', so you ought to spend at least some time getting used to the gameplay first, and then have fun with it later. I haven't played on Hard yet, but looking at how much value Normal mode gives, I have no doubt it will give me a good time as well. If there's anything to complain about, I'd say the arrows are a bit difficult to see, but changing the skin fixed that problem quite nicely; it actually improves my performance switching from skin to skin as well, so I recommend buy the DLC packs if you're interested in purchasing this game. Don't worry, they're worth it.

Final Fantasy XI price: what you pay, then keep paying

The Final Fantasy XI price is two numbers, and the subscription is the one that matters. Our tracked low, what the Ultimate Collection includes, and when buying at list is correct.

Castlevania Belmont's Curse price: which edition to buy

The Castlevania Belmont's Curse price splits in two: Steam charges full list, authorised resellers a quarter less. Our record says that 25% has not moved since June, and is the floor.
