Run to the rhythm of your own music library! Melody is back, with vastly improved audio analysis algorithms! Each mp3 creates a unique obstacle course synchronized to the beat and the intensity of your music.
The game's audio analysis algorithms now accurately transcribe the energy and rhythm of a wide variety of music genres, from electronic to metal, creating a synchronized gameplay experience that closely matches the beat and intensity of the user's own music. Players report the mapping quality as a major strength, with one reviewer praising the game's ability to handle songs with variable BPM rates and beat changes.
Players find the controls smooth and responsive, allowing for precise timing of inputs to the music. The transition to a 3D perspective has been well-executed, with one reviewer noting that the note prompts remain clear and readable despite the change in camera angle. Users describe the controls as feeling natural and intuitive, contributing to an immersive experience.
The game offers three distinct difficulty settings - Relaxing (one-button), Medium (four-button), and Intense (eight-button) - enabling both casual players and experienced rhythm game enthusiasts to enjoy the game. One reviewer appreciates this flexibility, as it allows them to choose a playstyle that suits their skill level and preferences.
As the music's intensity increases, the game adjusts Melody's movement speed and the frequency of obstacles accordingly, creating a dynamic and engaging experience that keeps players invested. Reviewers highlight the inclusion of slow-motion jumps and other visual effects as further enhancing the sense of flow and rhythm.
While the current customization options are somewhat limited, players eagerly anticipate the upcoming Steam Workshop support, looking forward to expanded character customization and the ability to create and share their own music-based levels. Reviewers praise the game's core mechanic of using one's own music library to generate unique obstacle courses for its potential replayability.
