“Spikit is, like the description, a game with a great soundtrack about moving and dodging spikes.”
“Music gets repetitive but encourages you to go further.”
“Spikit is a tricky game to classify; while it doesn’t fulfill the traditional bullet hell criteria, it’s not much of a rhythm game either, as the obstacles do not fully interact with the beat of the music.”
“With that being said, Spikit is a fairly primitive form of the genre with only one beat sequence throughout the game and no method(s) of introducing your own music to the mix.”
