Melody’s Escape

Melody’s Escape

Melody’s Escape is a deceptively simple yet challenging obstacle-based rhythm game with a lot of potential versatility in playstyle. While still in Early Access, it has almost no technical errors and the developer is extremely active, so I would recommend it to people who enjoy rhythm games, especially people who are looking for a different type of procedurally-generated music gameplay. I am terrible at obstacle running games, but I have never ever found the platforming element of this game to be obtrusive or overwhelming because it integrates so well with the beat and feels so smooth on a sensory level.

Summary

Melody’s Escape best represents rhythm synthesizer that generates various movement keys depending on the theme and digital nature of your favorite songs. The environment is always altered between each song you choose so everything is fairly different and randomized. As such since this is a rhythm game, a lot of gameplay is created based on the music’s movement. Some parts of a song can jump from being very fast paced to having a sudden drop in movement.

Some might complain that this game is too hard, but it can be super addicting for those who like rythm games of any kind. Yes, the graphics are simple, there is no combat, and no story or real point, BUT I think it’s a super fun game to play when you’re in between games. Overall, yes it can be difficult, but really fun.

Even if the game has just been released , I was lucky enough to have played it at dream hack. And when I did, i was already addicted. The game has simple mechanics, but always keeps it intresting. Each level is different from the other in some way, which keeps you on your toes. As the game progresses, it get harder, but it just gets more fun. You start to adapt to different stages. Each stage mastered is a new weapon to the arsernal, allowing you to shoot down each part of the level with pure satisfaction. And every new high score is like a pat on the back. When you hear the sound that you beat your record, you don’t just stop and say “I’m finished”. Each time I heard the sound, I said “I’m not done yet”. I would deffinetly recommend this game, and I promise you, You won’t get bored.

SOMOS is a minimalist masterpiece. You’re tasked with moving a circle in the middle of the screen back and forth by clicking on the side it’s on, though the real challenge kicks in when enemies spawn from both sides, causing you to rapidly, yet strategically deal with them while your circle frantically weaves in and out of danger. There’s several levels that’ll spice up your circle-protecting endeavors with scenarios such as Superhot-esque movement (time moves only when you move), daunting bosses spewing out barrages of enemies, only seeing the half of the screen your circle’s on, etc. Some of the challenges are difficult, but it’s the fun kind of difficult, like something you’d feel in Super Hexagon, and the satisfaction of completing a level there feels just as great in SOMOS too. Come to think of it, I feel satisfaction just from gazing at the game’s snazzy color palettes and listening to its hypnotic background synths while miscellaneous sounds from (killing) enemies are played over it. This all reminds me of the Bit Generations/Art Style games (GBA, Nintnedo DSi, Wiiware) and with the easy to pick up, hard to master vibes I get while playing it, I’d say anyone that’s a fan of those games or likes arcade-style stuff would feel right at home with SOMOS.

After Audiosurf made revolution in rhythm genre by letting us turn our personal MP3 files into custom racing levels, we’ve got all sorts of things with similar concept. It’s kinda fun, but, even though Audiosurf had a lot of space to improve, nobody ever tried to seriously compete with it. I mean, we’ve got quite a lot of rhythm racing games. We’ve got Music Racer, we’ve got Rhythmic Retro Racer, we’ve got Rhythm Race and so on. But those were just quick ways to make money. None of those ever tried to compete with Audiosurf for real. While games that actually tried to deliver something real? They just went for the other sub-genres.

When I first got this game I was really hyped because it was brought to us by the same people who made Music Racer, which already was a fantastic game. The graphics, game play, and the overall beat recognition was amazing and also trippy AF.

The problem I first had with the game was that it wouldn’t play YouTube songs, nor would it even play my own audio files. So that made me really disappointed. I read reviews that other people had posted about the game and they all seemed to have the exact same issue. A lot of people were saying that the developer stopped working on the game. At this point in time I believed them and I haven’t touched the game since.

Lynium

Not a game I play a lot of by any means, but it’s a nice game to play every once in a while to relax when I need a break from playing other games.

Lately I’ve found myself enjoying a lot of rhythm games like Muse Dash, Osu and a few others. I’ve found myself enjoying this game the most though, as I’ve been opening it up almost every day and playing a little bit here and there. I’m not good at rhythm games by any means but I still enjoy them.

Lynium has a Learning curve, and compared to other rhythm games, it’s a bit different considering it’s still new and in early access but very enjoyable. The initial controls for the game are a bit awkward at first but I was able to change them to be more comfortable for myself. I haven’t tried the multiplayer or making a beatmap yet but the game feels nice. Like a fully finished game!

I stumbled across lynium when i was looking for a new rhythm game to play. I was definitely sceptical at first, however i’m really glad i got it.

I find the game really throws you in at the deep end, it gives you a quick tutorial saying to just press buttons and then you start. The controls are quite challenging to get used to, however easy to pick up with practise. I’ve really enjoyed progressing from not being able to hit a double note to getting pretty good scores in the matter of hours and i’ve been hooked on it since download.

Very fun game, start a little slow, good for kids and training ;) but after some levels the fun starts, I liked the shape that make you turn and move your arm and body. I suggest to developer to include new peaces formats for the next levels and custom songs, but it’s nice I recommend it

Audiosurf is a very, very unique game and is definitely a landmark in the music/rhythm game genre. Unlike other rhythm games, which limit you to specific in-game songs, Audiosurf is limitless - it allows you to play any - that’s right, any - MP3 of your choice, so you can suit your gameplay to your own music tastes. This freedom is rarely found, if at all, in music games, and it has set the stage for other music games in the vein of it, such as Beat Hazard and the more recent Melody’s Escape. In my opinion, Audiosurf has infinite replay value, as long as you have a large amount of songs to play.

I’ve played this game for a pretty long while and still play it, simply can’t stop oO

Basically I launch drum & bass tracks in such styles as darkstep, techstep, neurofunk, liquid funk. From time to time I launch heavy dubstep which’s mainly deathstep style and also, sometimes glitch-hop, neuro-hop styles of glitchy Electronic Dance Music - it’s an amazing experience and makes about 90% of my races nearly impossible to finish with a good score. Tho probs I’m just a noob, but I still love it very much! xD
