Holy crap, legit my second favorite game on the Switch next to Zelda. Definitely love it more here than I did on iOS and the song selection is insane.
Man, I'm reallllllllllllllllllllllly crossing my fingers that Rayark brings Deemo to the Switch too. I'd pay 25 bucks to have all those songs readily available.
So I'd never even heard of this game until it was mentioned as one of the games on the JP eShop that was also in English on launch day, so I blind bought it. I've always super loved rhythm games, so I figured it was a shoe-in for something I'd like.
Man, like doesn't even begin to describe it. It's frantic and well paced without being overwhelming. The charts are fantastic and the visuals are sublime. The songs are almost all great so far, and the addition of a story mode is a fantastic little incentive to do certain challenges and to strive to play harder and more varied songs.
I haven't been this in love with a rhythm game since Project DIVA first came out, I think it even trump Theaterhythm and Ouendan for a spot near the top of my rhythm game list. Thanks for turning me on to this game, GAF, I will be playing it for a LONG time.
If you're uncertain, grab the iPhone version or check out YouTube. It's a game well worth looking into, and a must buy for people who enjoy electronic and jpop-rock music or rhythm games.
IMO biggest difference is that lanes are dynamic, so they'll move around and disappear. Notes can be tap, hold, slide, or swipe. Thankfully the dynamic lanes don't interfere with readability.
Game is pretty sweet, I like that everything is unlocked and I don't have to slog through lower difficulties first. Has a good, clean aesthetic and a lot of songs.
On the phone version, the tutorials stop showing up... at some point. I don't remember when, but they do stop playing it automatically after a few songs.
I removed both Joy-Cons, wedged the Switch between my thighs and go to town.
The tutorial eventually stops auto-loading once the game knows you've gotten the gist of things.
I have been wondering, what exactly do the plus and minus buttons do when selecting the song? Does it change how many notes are sent or how fast they arrive?
And what number do you play at? 3 seems to be the default, and I tried 5, but I wasn't sure what changed.

They change the speed things move from top to bottom on screen (so really gives you less time to react visually) 4 is default on my phone, tried 10 at one point..
It only controls note speed, and you should experiment until you find the speed that you are comfortable with (which will matter more at higher difficulties).
Higher speeds give you less time to react but also stretch out the chart so that fewer notes are on screen at the same time, which is good when there are a lot of notes - playing at slow speeds at higher difficulties can be just as overwhelming as playing at fast speeds. Most people will want somewhere in the middle.
I play on 6. Thinking about going to 7.
Glad you guys are loving it so much!
Of course not. It's right there in the OP.This doesn't require an internet connection like the iOS ver, right?
A new Elite Beat Agents would be amazing.
Do you play this game with joy-cons (attached) or without?. I know...you don't need them. Just curious.
I'm on mobile so didn't have images on, sorry :/Of course not. It's right there in the OP.
I believe they simply need to pass under your finger while it's already on the screen, so hold down and slide to follow their path.How do the smaller white notes work?
The game is 100% touchscreen, but I play with the Joy-cons connected so that the screen has a slight tilt upward while I play it on the table.
Just played a couple rounds. It's so relaxing.
The hit feedback (or lack thereof) really annoyed me in the iOS version, especially as the solution was to have those irritating chimes over the top, but it's not as big of a deal here. I guess because the screen is bigger. Either way, I really like it.
It especially differentiates itself from stuff like Tap Tap (from the old iOS days!) by having the shifting lanes, which feel as designed as the notes on the tracks themselves. They're not distracting but instead enhance the flow, and look really pretty to boot.
Overall I really like it, it feels at home on the Switch. Glad my glass screen protector arrived the other day too, screen feels really nice now.
Heh, same.Glad to hear this. I'm waiting on my tempered glass protector to ship. For now, the screen has a little bit of stickiness and pull to it, especially because I perspire very mildly through my hands, so I'm really needing a smoother and slicker surface for those white beads and slide notes.
CAD$35 :lolHow much is it in Canada?
Which one is that?Are we sure all the songs that were on mobile are here? My favorite song that I had been playing on my phone the past few days I can't seem to find on the Switch.
That's close to being the actual exchange rate. $34 would have been more fair but they're probably accounting for future drops in the dollar which has shown weakness of late.CAD$35 :lol

This excites mehttps://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=409035589446596&id=103378496678975
According to their Facebook, they have already started work on DLC. I believe they said they would have free updates? Read that somewhere.
Over 15 songs coming, including Switch exclusive songs.
Wow I just realized this thread's title is a reference to the Voice haha, not sure how you even pronounce Voez though, voh-ez?
how many fingers are you supposed to use
As many as neededhow many fingers are you supposed to use
Wait, so does changing the note speed affect your score?
I assumed changing note speed would give you more points because of playing it faster.
Edit: After looking at the OP I don't see anything about note speed affecting score so I guess it isn't affected.
One beef I have is that I still do wish they did at least have stick/button control for menu operations. I forget and get confused lol.
You can also take a screenshot stillAnd that you don't really need the Joy-Cons but you need the right one just to go to the home menu when you're done playing.
This game is a lot of fun! Already bumped it up to hard. Getting so many keys. It's kinda tedious to keep pulling icons at only three at a time.
Liked the bit I played so far (damn you Zelda), but the lack of feedback and no fail state makes it hard to find the groove. Just gunna go through by difficulty and hope it clicks.
Got spoiled by Future Tone's customizable feedback and practice.
I really like this on the Switch. I thought touch-only and handheld focused titles in general wouldn't be a thing until Scorpio was a thung.
