Aneres11 Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 That's a shame. As awesome as HarmoKnight is, it's kinda disappointing that there isn't a bit more to it really. Especially as those development documents from the Iwata Asks suggest that they were at some point considering Character customisation, Online Leaderboards and an Endless stage. All of that stuff would have been great, but I think an Endless stage is the most shocking omission. It would've been perfect on one of the Stadium style stages, where you just run around in a circle anyway. Oh well, the game provided me with a lot of enjoyment as it is, and continues to do so. I just hope if Game Freak decide to make a sequel, that they include all of that stuff I mentioned above. Wow - all the stuff you mentioned I knew nothing about. But your right, it does / did sound great - particularly the endless stage!! That would have been brilliant. Tie that with online leader boards to see how long people can last before they lose all of their lives and that would have been a pretty amazing challenge! Yeah it's not a perfect game by any means, but I love its simplicity and it's ability to completely suck you in. It tends to be these type of games that have got that 'just one more go' effect - and you don't get many experiences like that any more I don't think. The only gripe for me was the replaying of stages. Not the need to have to do it (as obviously, you gotta replay if you don't get what you need!), but more the length of time it took to replay certain stages. Particularly world 7's boss fight. I messed up at the end part of that so many times - and it was right back to the start all over again. A bit of a kick in the teeth that ha. But yeah, I highly recommend the game to anyone. Best £12 I've spent in a while! Let me know your final stage clear times when you finish Red!
Mike Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I beat the main game today, so still plenty to do, but I have to admit, I ended up liking this less and less as the game went on. Worlds 3 and 4 for were certainly the high points for me (why was World 4 so short? ) and by World 7, I was just getting frustrated more than having fun. If only the music wasn't so dreadful (and quiet) things would be so much different.. For me, it's definitely not worth £12, considering the price of, say, Pushblox and the divine Hydroventure. It's not a bad game, just one with a whole lot of missed potential.
Dcubed Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 Finally got it. It's just wonderful Beat the first world and I'm loving it so far
RedShell Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 Finally got it. It's just wonderful Beat the first world and I'm loving it so far Great! And if you're loving it now, just wait until you hit World 3 and 4...
nekunando Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 I haven't downloaded this yet but I might later on today I just wanted to know one thing, though.. is there an option to switch the controls around so that I can hit with B and Jump with A? I was playing the demo again and it feels the wrong way around to me I kept getting mixed up because of it

Fused King Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 So I downloaded this game as it was still on the list of numerous games I still wanted to play and it was a nice little experience. Some stages are definitly a lot more challenging on Fast, but sometimes faster rhythms actually suited the stage better. I must say that I sometimes had trouble with the rhythms not really understanding why they had an enemy or something represent a note at a specific moment. It is VERY different from Rhythm Tengoku that's for sure. Speaking of Rhyhtm Paradise, I am looking forward to buying the latest one sometime when I return home. I also forgot to use the discount for this game you can find on MyNintendo.... So all in all a nice little rhythm game with lots of potential for an expansion. I've always wante to see an epic in which multiple tribes use different instruments and have different musical styles and something throws off the balance of this universe and someone needs to master all the differents grooves and instruments to bring balance back again. It fits the Zelda universe well, I'd say.
