Unique and original concept combining rhythm and fighting game genres.
Visually appealing with dynamic, bright graphics and cool music.
Free to play and shows great potential as a student project with promising mechanics.

Limited content including only two characters, two songs, and lack of single-player mode.
Technical issues such as crashes, poor optimization, input delay, and limited settings/customization.
Gameplay suffers from balance problems, lack of depth, unresponsive controls, and lacks polish.

The game's music aspect is praised for its unique concept of integrating music and fighting, with the ability to import custom tracks seen as a strong feature despite a somewhat complex process. However, the limited number of characters and tracks, occasional audio clashes during ultimates, and a lack of polish detract from the experience. Overall, reviewers see great potential in the music system but hope for improvements in variety, smoother integration, and additional modes.
- “Some kind of different fighting, perfect for those who love music, and everyone loves music ;d”
- “The importing songs option is an amazing addition, can't wait to whoop friends whilst listening to Christian metal bands.”
- “Unpolished but woah this is a great game concept - the song integration system is a little janky but the gameplay is fun, hopefully with some development we can get a single player mode added but so far it's a very good concept game”
- “There are some awkward stuff about it like the animations a bit stale and when you use your ultimate the ultimates play music with the music chosen which creates a chaotic mix of sounds that is really unpleasant.”
- “There's only two fighters to choose from and the composer that allows you to add your own music doesn't work for me.”
- “Now, of course, this game is extremely early access, currently there are only 2 characters and 2 music tracks in the game at the time of this review. You can add your own music into the game, however, the process to do so seemed a bit complex.”

The game's graphics are generally praised for their visual appeal and quality, offering an attractive experience. However, performance issues such as lag on older PCs and minimal, ineffective customization options, including the inability to adjust aspect ratio or display size, detract from the overall experience.
- “The graphics in this game are really quite good, which at least makes the game look more appealing.”
- “But when I got into a game it was good and the graphics were very nice.”
- “And while it's vital for any game to have impressive visuals (gaming is a visual medium, after all), there's more to a game than just the graphics.”
- “The graphics are laggy on older PCs, and the options to change the graphics settings are minimal.”
- “When I applied the graphics settings, it seemed like they didn't even apply to the game.”
- “There are little to no graphics settings, which barely affect how the game runs; you can't even change the aspect ratio or display size, which is pretty poor.”

The gameplay combines rhythm and 2D fighting mechanics with advanced features like animation canceling and unique movement options, showing thoughtful design. While it may feel complex and somewhat unpolished for casual players, it offers a fun and promising concept. However, some users feel it lacks polish and could benefit from further development and additional modes.
- “Unpolished but woah this is a great game concept - the song integration system is a little janky but the gameplay is fun, hopefully with some development we can get a single player mode added but so far it's a very good concept game.”
- “But, the gameplay seems very polished within that small area.”
- “The game is a mixture of rhythm games and 2D fighters, and while it seemed simple on the surface, a quick look into the 'how to play' menu showed me that the developers definitely put some thought into the advanced mechanics, with animation canceling, a quick fall from the air, and something called 'trumpet dashing,' which I could tell immediately was above my paygrade as a casual fighting game player.”
