it is absolutely too early to give a review on this when it was just released, but my god it is so good. everything feels so polished, and it pays off greatly because the levels are so fun to play. they'll kick your ass, but the ranking system is very forgiving, so don't shy away if difficult rhythm games aren't your style.
there's also a huge amount of custom maps made for this game already. pick it up if the early access label is what's scaring you from getting it this early.

Amazing one button rhythm game. Good music, good visuals, good distraction mechanics, good story (of what's been added so far), good modding community. Looking forward to more.
Finished early access in about 2 hours.
Still have the night missions to do but this is a fun game and I'm looking forward to more

Has one of the coolest mechanics I've ever seen in a PC game
Do you like rhythm games? If yes, just download/wish-list/whatever Rhythm Doctor. You should play it.
It's a super solid, unique, and charming novel rhythm idea. There were moments in this game that I will simply have vivid memories of. The writing is funny yet empathetic. Most of the tracks slap.

I don't really play rhythm games, but a rhythm game that consistently asks you not to listen to the music doesn't sit right with me.
nothing could have prepared me for the things 2-X made me feel
Gameplay is intuitive, the story is alright, honestly I'm just in it for the songs though.
The editing software gives me a headache tho.

one of the best rhythm games i played tbh
I don't normally play a lot of rhythm games but if they have good music, it's not hard to fall in love with them. Rhythm Doctor has more than an outstanding soundtrack: its graphics often transcend the boundaries of pixel art, its characters have narratives that are tied together by a loose overall plot, and it boasts exclusively one-button gameplay that manages to constantly evolve despite its simplicity. The hospital and heartbeat theming works well too—it both provides a backdrop for the beat-based gameplay and sets up the story arcs for the patients you are trying to cure.
The difficulty is exactly where I want it to be as well. Most levels weren't hard enough to halt my progress in the story, but A ranks or higher take some practice that is addicting and satisfying to master. The game is still in early access and new content is still being developed, and I can tell the later level packs are starting to get more challenging. I was disappointed to learn the game isn't complete, but there's a plethora of content already available including five story acts, bonus collab levels, story-based minigames, a level editor, and even a two-player mode.
I loved almost every moment of this game and really have nothing to nitpick. At the time of this review, it's been in early access for almost two years and it seems like it may take another two years for the full release to be ready. If the final chapters and story continue the quality of the rest of the game, this could easily be one of the all-time greatest rhythm games.

Bem difícil, músicas muito boas
só não é 5 estrelas pq não ta completo, e pq o sistema do trem é uma MERDA e eu ODEIO
A pretty casual rhythm game with a good OST, and a bunch of unique and cool gimmicks. Sometimes the visual effects are just a little too much.
This is a special game, in the fact that it has a unique concept, and unlike some other games, said concept is done EXTREMELY well and combines to make an absolutely amazing game when you add on everything else.
The plan is simple: You tap on the 7th beat. That's it. You do that for the entire song, and you win! But then, it gets ever so slightly more complex. Suddenly, you have to deal with two heartbeats at once, given the rhythm is extremely simple. And then, speed changes are added into the mix. And then, it introduces a concept so fucking kino that it should be ILLEGAL. (I won't leak it so anyone reading can experience it for themselves: but it is AMAZING.)
This has been about the gameplay so far, but everything else about the game cannot go un-noticed.
There is an extremely good story under the hood that, while VERY simple, is extremely well written and has some genuinely emotional moments on both ends of the spectrum. Every character has depth and feel like actual characters.
The game does not falter in the visual aspect OR the musical aspect either, having some shots that are actual eye-candy and some moments in the OST that are genuine, whole-hearted bangers.
Did I forget to mention that this game has one of the best level editors, and by proxy one of the coolest online level communities out there? I could talk for hours about this game's custom levels, but any search for "Rhythm Doctor Custom Levels" will find you some extremely cool shit.
Anyways, I love this game with my whole heart, and it's so fucked that it's still early access with how much shit there is in this game right now. Buy this game. Buy it now. Buy it now. Buy it now.

"Sometimes I'm angry I'm not doing better than I thought I'd do at this point."
Rhythm Doctor is an incredibly polished rhythm game that boasts a well-crafted, surprisingly heartfelt story mode as well as an endless amount of user-created levels, thanks to its insanely in-depth editor. There's a load of cool things at play here to further expand upon what is initially a simple concept (including one REALLY sick boss level). It can be stupid hard at times, but like every rhythm game, it becomes really satisfying when you break through and get that S+ on the song that's giving you trouble. Please check this one out if you haven't yet.

Finished Early Access! MORE MORE MORE!

Genial, como um jogo de ritimo, as musicas são muito boas, e os mapas são muito diferentes, conforme você vai avançando, as fases vão mudando, mas nunca perdendo a essência do começo do game.
only way I can describe this is as if they took a single rhythm heaven minigame but made it the entire game
iv drip it into my veins
Un juego bien bonito y desafiante la verdad, creo que si te encanta los juegos ritmos encontraras algo sumamente interesante para ti, la verdad me encanta la música de este juego pero el problema es que simplemente no tengo la habilidad para el, lo intente pero esto me confirma que los juegos de ritmo no son mi estilo
I have no sense of rhythm but the game is good. I love the effects and how they surprise you.
Incredible rhythm game. With two players it becomes an absolute jam.
Me interessei no jogo após ver uma gameplay no youtube no canal do Tropia, vi e achei o jogo interessante, mas na época, não possuía pc para poder jogar. Finalmente após anos eu pude jogar esse jogo, e ele é apenas incrível... acabei de zerar o jogo, e chorei horrores, sendo que a historia nem é focada nisso, mas chorei de admiração, de como é nítido o amor e o carinho depositado nesse jogo, sem duvidas ficara na minha mente.
REVIEW
Analisando mais tecnicamente o jogo e deixando meu drama de lado, Rhythm Doctor é um jogo rítmico com uma mecânica bem criativa, aonde consiste em você aperta a tecla na sétima batida da musica, uma mecânica simples mas bastante interessante, porem existia um problema nisso, era simples demais, oque tornava o jogo muito fácil, as primeiras fases era tranquilo de passar de primeira, incluindo o primeiro boss, mas ai entra genialidade desse jogo, a cada mundo e fase que avança, novas mecânicas são incrementadas, e aos poucos, vc percebe que oque era uma mecânica simples no inicio se tornou um turbilhão de dificuldade, tudo sem sobrecarregar o player, fazendo com que a adaptação fosse tranquila e gradativa. As musicas do jogo são memoráveis demais, tratando de temas super complexos, e o ritmo sempre esta em perfeita sincronia com a fase (exceto quando tem um vírus, jogue e entendera), por mais que a historia em si não seja o foco do jogo, ela não posta em escanteio, o jogo possui um historia cativante e bem desenvolvida, tratando de problemas comuns no dia a dia, como o burnout (excesso de trabalho), vícios, dificuldades criativas, adaptação e mais. Alem de tudo isso, o jogo possui um criador de fases para a comunidade, oque me impressionou, já que para jogar as fases da comunidade não precisa baixar nenhum mod, apenas o arquivo da fase, super pratico e rápido. Sem duvidas o melhor jogo rítmico que já joguei (menção especial as fases em modo janela, nunca vi isso antes na minha vida, incrível). <3

It's good
Ganha fácil como um dos melhores jogos de ritmos já feito, o carinho que é feito em cada detalhezinho, mostra que os devs realmente se importam com seu jogo, com sua criação e com sua arte. É engraçado, é divertido, é ótimo, é incrivel, E A MÚSICA É DE SE LEVITAR. Joguem, o jogo é curto(aparentemente ele ainda esta em "acesso antecipado") mas o jogo vale muito a pena(recomendado em comprar em um dia com promoção)
FAN-FUCKING TASTIC RHYTHM GAME
The whole idea of it only using one button is done flawlessly without making it baby-mode easy, and honestly it's a joy to play through
Now getting a S rank on every song, come back to me once I've done it

really good! the mechanics are easy to understand, the levels are challenging but not unfair, and the music is a BANGER! would recommend!
Playing through this was a challenging and emotional experience that I never thought I would get from a rhythm game. Each stage had so much character and spirit imbued into it that you could instantly feel what the people behind the game were trying to say.
Gameplay wise, the game is certainly challenging. However, it is never impossible, and only requires a bit of time. Every few levels a new type of beat is introduced, always adding a bit more variety, while also coinciding with the characters you meet.
There is an unbelievable amount of attention to detail and passion behind this game that I can't help but want to replay through each level just so I can experience it again or find anything I missed. Luckily, there are a plethora of bonus levels to complete, meaning I'll be having fun for quite a while.
I recommend this game to anyone and everyone. Even if you're not good with rhythm games, this is a experience you won't forget.
