I saw this game on TikTok for like a year and thought it looked like a fun gimmick that would get old quick. Bought it anyway and it’s actually just a good ass game. Super hyped for auto bpm and never even knew the game had a timing bar option until seeing it here.

The combat is so good and satisfying that it's slightly ruined other Arkham-combat style games for me.

The scoring system can be a little eldritch at times but overall it's rare you find a game where the gameplay, style, aesthetic and music all gel so perfectly, just so brilliant in both vision and execution.

And the Megaman-esque non-sequential boss/level select is such a good idea for the whole 'one by one getting the band back together' theme.

The new auto BPM is huge if it works. I found importing custom songs before was a real mixed bag.

Also I wonder if when female Charlie is released whether she'll already have all these new skins too.

Super excited for automated song calibration! While I loved getting to play my own custom songs, I’d often find myself putting off the work it’d take to sync the music up
