This game is a real vibe, and one that really worked for me. All the different pieces fit together, from the visuals, the great soundtrack, the writing, and the rhythm-based gameplay. The game knows what it wants to be and is unashamed, and this combined with the enjoyable core gameplay led to a great experience. As someone who enjoys rhythm games, it made the sort of action/combo fighter gameplay more accessible, with the beat system making it easier to chain together combos and get into the groove of combat.

Being a shadow-drop out of nowhere, the game's popularity speaks to it's quality, helped by it's very reasonable price tag.
