Your Music Puzzle
Quite a niche genre in Steam to be seen.
An idea for deconstructing songs into pieces to reassemble them again was never so interesting, so I decided to give it a try.
The game is replayable as long as you have songs to make puzzles from and your motivation.
Completing songs takes a lot of time, I have spent nearly a half an hour to match all the pieces of a song together into a long chain of music.
I noticed that long chains of pieces sometimes do not want to join to other chains, but it occurs very rarely.

Grabbed this Game the day it came out, and it certainly did NOT disappoint! You can take the songs already a part of the game, or bring in your own music…and see how well you REALLY know the songs you have as favorites…displaced into several puzzle pieces, and it tests how well you indeed know them…which verses come first, etc, to see how challenging it will end up being…but REALLY well done!! The pieces really DO fit together, and parts that repeat or sound similar within a chosen song, is where you’ll really be tested. Never unfair, the challenge does depend on which song you select, but deals more with you than this game, as the game is really done that well. With the possible exception of not being able to save your work once its finished, this game is otherwise masterfully done, VERY cool, good fun OR good time waster, depending on how you see it, but time well spent in any case. ‘Your Music Puzzle’ exceeded my expectations, and my expectations were high. Worthy in every way!

I like the aesthetic and visuals.But unfortunately cant really play the game being a slow typer (Which i wanted to improve with this game) and there being no difficult settings.

This game has good core components. No songs to try on launch and in turn no “high scores” to care about. The game doesn’t do a good job of letting you know when you’ve hit for missing a note (think of guitar hero). The algorithm used to analyze the audio is fine, but some of them don’t make sense, and without a tracklist that has a curated ‘track’ that fits perfectly to the beat, just makes it feel a little less.
I like the core idea of the game as a very fast typer, but sometimes the letters are just random. Maybe converting them to words (as touch typing is really what people are doing) would make it easier to follow. That or moving away from the learning to type idea, and just sticking with home row or something for every letter.

Borealis
TL;DR 4/10…This is a simple elegant game which should get a thumbs UP even though most people will get a quick zen moment for 10 or 20 minutes, then abandon. In theory, most any gamer could be happy to drop their 0.50-$1 for this on sale.
However, they took a simple one dimensional mechanic–and blew it.
There are only 13 modes. Meteors zip through the screen with various unique movements, but most of them are heat-seeking (to you), though with very wide turning radii. When encountering each other (or you), they explode. The 1st core rule is that you are not allowed to move your cursor (death-target) very fast. If you attempt to move fast, the game penalizes you by forcing you to move even slower than before. This is a fine rule in that it encourages deliberate, controlled movement, rather than quick, zippy motions.

Certainly not a bad game as such, but the original idea has not been executed as it could have been. As a “dot in space” (or elsewhere), you have to dodge incoming lines. Seems familiar enough, but it comes with a twist: you can only move fairly slow, and when moving in a fluid motion, you can “direct” the incoming lines (I can’t help of thinking about them as missiles) to a certain degree so that they slap into each other. The slow pace and the rather peculiar, somehow relaxing music, contribute to the overall feeling of ease the game offers.

Happy Oshare Time
This game is dangerously kawaii. It’s like I’m inside of a denpa album. If you like stuff like PriPara this might be for you. However there isn’t much to the game with only 12 songs and not a very strong rhythm game. Get it on sale.

It’s honestly a very cute game. It’s got a surprising variety of songs and customization. They added new outfits for Halloween, so I hope they keep updating it for different holidays!
Had some issues with crashes earlier on, but those seem to have cleared up. The hands are a bit wonky, but it’s not a big deal. And yes, there’s no teleportation so if you don’t have a big room, you can’t really get close to the mirror. But it doesn’t affect the experience much.
If this seems like your thing, then it’s probably worth your money. There’s nothing really hidden about Happy Oshare Time. The description sums it up well. I find it quite entertaining in short sessions and I know I’ll keep coming back to play more!

Maybe you are familiar with games like Audiosurf or Melody’s Escape. This is one of the games of that game genre. Don’t expect much from it at the moment, but it sure looks promising. The fact there is only 1 person working on this entire game, is mindblowing to me.
You control an airship with mouse and hover over the notes, while pressing the coresponding key each time. I like the gameplay, and the colorful graphics. The in-game gameplay is jittery, but it’s no issue for me. The game might have problems with placing notes when there is a lot of going on in the song. I get that, many games of this genre have that issue, if not all (It is actually impossible to create the perfect music analyzer that would work with any type of music).

very relaxing, has potential, though need improvement.

Road Legends
Road Legends is an endless runner with some sweet beats, but has several flawed designs.
The game is brutally unforgiving and will force you to restart if you hit any obstacle even if you make it through 99% of the stage. Each stage is beatable, but will require sharp reflexes and the ability to look ahead, if you have some experience with rhythm games, you should be fine on the lowest speed. The procedural generated nature of stages can create some nearly frame perfect requirements so get ready to replay each stage multiple times if trying for 3 star finishes.

Levels feel like they take 5x longer than they actually are. A great way to agonisingly stretch out 2 minutes to what feels like 10 if it’s your last day of summer break and don’t want to go back to school.
The game also features some garbage tier level generation that will put two targets in the outer lanes as close together as possible making it not only nearly impossible to spam the turn keys quick enough, but then it will literlally throw a bomb between he two points.

Alphabeats: Master Edition
Alphabeats: Master Edition:
Do you have rhythm in your blood? Do you have good reflexes? Are you good at spelling? Well, you had better have these qualities in abundance, because you are up for a challenge!
Alphabeats: Master Edition is a combination of a spelling / rhythm (music) game. As you launch the game, you will be presented with a comprehensive menu. In the middle of the screen you will be able to select from over 20 tracks to play – or you can upload your own favourite tracks. Also, you will have an option at the top “How to Play” (which is a good tutorial), an online leader board and the words you manage to spell correctly (the longest too).

Alphabeats is a combined word and rhythm game that was originally released as free game with pay-to-play levels on mobile platforms but was well reworked for PC, there is practically no trace of being a mobile game in the past.
You control a pointer that can horizontally move and collect letters from the board to form a word; those letters appear concurrently with the song rhythm. You have to make the best words you can, leading you to aim for the highest score (leaderboards are synchronised online). That might sound pretty easy but beware, as the song's speed gets higher and as you aim for longer words, you'll also have to keep in mind that you have to dodge the letters you don't want to use in a word which you plan to put together.

Well, my first impression of this game was that I didn’t like it.
The graphics/instructions at the start look a little “yikes” to me, but I thought, hey, I like the concept of the game, perhaps I can look past me being picky about the graphics.
I read through the instructions, and when it comes to these games, the only thing I am usually interested in is the feature to use your own music. So in the sense of the provided music, I’m afraid I have no idea if it’s any good. I was, however, a tiny bit impressed with the way this game lets you use your own music. Not so much because it’s amazing or anything but rather just something a bit different. It opens up possibility to use a lot more platforms with this game.
