gameplay3 positive mentions
optimization2 negative mentions
  • Fun and immersive gameplay with a well-balanced mix of RNG and player strategy.
  • Smooth performance with good graphics and minimal bugs for an early access title.
  • Developer is interactive with the community and committed to improving the game, including expanding music and content.
  • Difficulty balance issues, especially at higher difficulty levels, making some encounters feel unfair due to RNG.
  • Limited card variety and lack of superior card packs reduce deck building depth currently.
  • Story and characters feel generic and underdeveloped compared to similar games in the genre.

  • music

    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    25% positive mentions, 50% neutral mentions, 25% negative mentions

    The music in the game is appreciated for its live re-recording of AI-generated rock-n-roll tracks that enhance the immersive card-playing experience. While some criticize the use of AI, many acknowledge the practicality for a one-man developer and enjoy the fun, replayable songs with multiple performance options. Technical issues occasionally disrupt performances, but the overall musical content is well-received and expected to expand further.

    • “Appreciate the effort of live re-recording of AI-generated songs (can't imagine the amount of work it'll take, there's a lot).”
    • “Fun, immersive, and I hope the developer continues to use AI for music and content to grow this even bigger.”
    • “No major backbreaking bugs, and every bit of the entertainment and music you desire, with a lot of action, and a new spin on card play and music.”
    • “The songs are just rock-n-roll noise to indicate a song is being performed while you're slinging your cards.”
    • “The AI opponents amass a wealth of multipliers, songs with multiple performance options, and worst of all, technical difficulties that destroy your performance.”
    • “The use of AI to fill in for music that 'will eventually' be added reinforces this point.”

  • gameplay

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    75% positive mentions, 25% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The gameplay offers a fun and engaging loop that keeps players invested despite some rough mechanics and occasional bugs. While the story and characters may be weak, the developer’s effort shines through, making the gameplay the game's strongest aspect, especially considering its early access status.

    • “Fun gameplay loop that will keep you entertained and invested in the game.”
    • “While some game mechanics are rough around the edges, you can tell that the developer put time and effort into the game.”
    • “While the story and characters are lackluster at best, the game is carried by its fun gameplay loop and theme.”

  • optimization

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game's optimization suffers from unbalanced RNG, causing inconsistent difficulty regardless of the chosen mode. AI opponents gain excessive advantages through multipliers and technical glitches, leading to frustrating and unfair gameplay experiences.

    • “The RNG is nowhere near balanced for the difficulty modes you choose, so you can play the easiest or the hardest difficulty; regardless of your choice, you'll inevitably hit a string of performances that end in a game over.”
    • “The AI opponents amass a wealth of multipliers, songs with multiple performance options, and worst of all, technical difficulties that destroy your performance.”

  • story

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The story is considered lackluster and generic, with predefined characters rather than allowing player-created groups, making it one of the game's weaker aspects. However, this shortcoming is offset by an engaging gameplay loop and theme.

    • “The game struggles with its story; instead of creating your own group of misfit musicians like in Rising Star 2, you experience five characters who are frankly generic.”

  • graphics

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Users praise the graphics for being visually impressive and running smoothly with minimal crashes.
