Had problems unzipping on both my Windows XP VM and my OSX's unzipper. Corrupted perhaps?

That's odd, I re-uploaded it to my site. Hopefully that fixes it.

Crashes when you press enter to begin a song when no songs are placed in the music folder. Going to try playing now :D

Ridiculously difficult, can't figure out how to change the difficulty. Arrow keys as controls are SO annoying for games like this, use ASDF instead (they're in a row).

Added a new download link, sorry about that. But for some reason it worked for others. This link is also changed on the web page for those curious.


Also, really? It's too hard? To me it's too easy. D:

With what songs?? The one's I've tried all have really boring empty / easy part and then RIDICULOUSLY overcomplicated and fast parts.

Yeah, definitely do ASDF for control scheme. I really cannot play it with the arrow keys. But the new file works great, thanks!

Hmmm, been a month since I posted here. Odd. Maybe because there's a...



BAM Image*explosion effect* Image UPDATE!


So, a lot of people said things about the game being too hard, or it crashing and stuff, and not just on this forum. ;)

Luckily, the version you guys got was an alpha. Let's see how much you guys enjoy the beta!

If you look at my first post, you'll notice that everything changed, new download links, media, blah blah blah :P

But yes, this game is graphically re-designed, has more difficulties so all skill levels can enjoy,

And the keys are customizable! Just look in Data/controls.ifi for the controls, and check out the Data/control_code_sheet.txt for a simple instruction. There's also a file called ASDFControls.txt for an example on how the controls.ifi file should look like for asdf as the keys.


To long didn't read? Huge update, everything's better, first post updated with download link as well, and here's a direct download link if you don't wanna see the first post CLICK ME TO DOWNLOAD! :D
