ジャンクノーツ / JUNK NOTES

I am going to be extremely harsh here. The whole game reeks of AI. Pros: The few songs that i played range from okay to soso. cons : everything else. So where to start ? This is a terrible game. First there is no absolutely no menu and no settings at all. Impossible to quit the game other than alt-f4, no possibility to pause or quit a game with ESC.( basic thing that exist since the dawn of computer gaming yo ) The only ui you have is a whole mess. Gameplay is horrible, witch is the selling point of a rhythm game you know. No difficulty selection for songs. Had to deactivate 3D and every effect or else it was lagging. Patterns are fully random and borderline unreadable. Increasing Speed notes does not change anything. Hold notes are noted as " swipe" so what, it was developped for mobile ? Diamond notes are impossible to get, i cant press the key plus space at the same time. Continous tap notes are random, in both their placement and the number of times you have to hit them, while still having to continue pressing other keys, i cant spam a key while pressing the others. Honestly, this is a hard pass, i couldnt even be bothered to try every song. Please avoid.

Pretty bad. I liked the aesthetic as I love steampunk AND rhythm games. The songs are not too bad, either. But the notes are really random and the patterns are garbage. Furthermore, the multiple tap notes feel unnatural, especially since the notes do not make sense with the song/beat. And the notes you need to combine with holding down spacebar don't work on many keyboards, and feels terrible too. Especially given the fact you cannot change your keybindings. The angle you need to put your fingers in to both press sdjk and then the spacebar feels horrible. All in all, this game's title is apt. JUNK notes indeed.
