I AM DIE
Have you ever rolled a dice and thought to yourself “Wow; this is boring. I wish I had full 360 radial movement, a boost, a double jump, and slow-motion capabilities…”?
If so, then I AM DIE is the game for you!
Set across a series of surreal floating islands with procedurally-generated musical soundscapes, I AM DIE is a physics-based 3D puzzle platformer in which you must find, release, and guide a ball to its goal, weaving your way through an increasingly fiendish set of ramps, tubes, conveyors, and other obstacles.
But each roll of the dice counts toward your final score, so as you explore and progress, you must battle against the forces of randomness to keep your level-complete time FAST and your roll-score LOW!
With over fifty main levels (and a few secret ones), I AM DIE is a game that’s easy to play and difficult to master, and may have you tearing your hair out every time you delicately guide yourself toward a “one” and inexplicably land on a “six”.
No microtransactions. No pay to win. No skins or hats or online multiplayer or global rankings. Just good old fashioned platforming fun from an era gone by.
*** Tightly programmed and expansive controls.
-
Over 50 unique levels.
-
Procedurally generated music.
-
No upgrades. You start with everything you need!
-

Behind the scenes content.

Works best with a controller.

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!

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!

Halloween Rhythm
Wow.. this gotta be the worst rhythm game I’ve played. The only reason I played it is cause I’m a weirdo with a need to play Halloween themed games on Halloween 🎃
It looks like it was drawn in paint, and there’s no penalty for mistakes.
Hard mode is way too hard and its much easier to just mash left and right.
And all 6 songs are public domain classical songs that you hear way too often.
Don’t play this.

One of my favorite music games ever, I love it so much! I even bought it again on Steam when it released here just to support the developers because this game’s so nice and lovely.

Pulsen
I have been with Pulsen for quite a while, probably before it was even a thought to have it pushed to major platforms like Steam. So that is a forewarning that I have seen it develop and have helped it along in what little way I can over the years. Take that as you will.
TL;DR:
Wide variety of difficulty and styles
Varied songs, some may even be familiar
Based on Stepmania 5, polished to a shine
Many features to come to enhance experience
Details:
It has calm charts for easing in new players, up to mind-bending charts to challenge the hardcore. It supports keyboard, dance pad, and controllers, with separated scores as well. And as with most dance games, you can modify scroll speed and change other effects. You can find your exact playstyle, and tweak it on the fly.

It’s like if ITG marathons were the whole point of the game. A handful of songs don’t have scripted modifiers but most do, and they’re all really well done and even change by difficulty. Every song has at least 5 difficulties (DDR players know them as Beginner - Challenge, ITG players know Novice - Expert) and some even have a 6th Bonus difficulty. If you aren’t a fan of the modifiers there is even an option to turn them off, so fans of any kinds of four panel dance game can enoy it. But back to the original point, the mods are the point. There isn’t much in the way of stamina busting here, there’s a little tech in there like foot switching but it’s not over the top, I would say difficulty caps around ITG 12’s for the charts themselves, but the game has it’s own rating system that takes the mods into consideration. The game is made in a custom fork of StepMania, but it’s worth your money. So is the DLC. Some content creators giving away their content for free doesn’t invalidate the work put into Pulsen. You can also add your own songs to the game in a directory the game makes, which is nice. There are some small issues with some options not working right, and if you’re used to having extra modes you won’t find them. But what you do get in this package is worth playing.
