Heartbeats (2025)

It's a great and addictive game. Gameplay is smooth and adrenalinic at the same time. Matches are quick and it's very very easy to get caught in the loop restarting every loss you take. Sound design is amazing, and so is the art. Devs are active and listen to feedback.

Good & quite tough

Heartbeats is a simple, yet oddly addicting game that throws you into a rather clever way of representing what it's like to resist a panic attack as a bullet hell shmup styled game. Now I normally don't play bullet hell games because I suck at dodging overwhelming amounts of moving obstacles, but I still find this game to be very enjoyable! The visuals look cool, and the action leaves me wanting to come back and try again to see if I can beat a run. For what it is, I say that this game is worth the price!

The game is fun and addictive, giving strong arcade shmup vibes. Runs are fast, always leaving you with a "one more try" feel; competing with friends for the high score with your favorite Inner Weapon is fun, and the bpm system can make the game quite challenging - completing the game with Valor surely put my skills to the test! 😆 Also the art is exquisite, and the devs listen to community feedback (the game already went through some updates since launch). Definitely recommended for arcade fans and people who love challenging gunplay!

Great game feel, audio & visuals 👍

This game is so cool. It makes me feel very "ooga booga number go up" and the visuals are amazing. Awesome work and a lot of fun.
