π One of the more oddly tricky things to explain to rhythm game newcomers is the concept of note speed.
To people like me who have been playing rhythm games for years, the concept is as natural as breathing. But when we explain it to new and non-players, they get confused and we have to clarify that:
* It doesn't make the song go slower or faster.
* It doesn't change the tempo at which notes have to be hit.
* It spreads out the notes, making them easier to read.
* For advanced players, it allows them to time based partly on reaction instead of straining their concentration.
Even more than that, during the late 2000s, when speed modifiers were introduced to Guitar Hero, branded as "Hyper Speed" there were people who played the game but not other rhythm games who outright claimed that Hyper Speed is cheating. I think the confusion stems from how it's activated like a cheat code, even though its use doesn't disqualify scores, and was probably meant by the devs to be seen as a "power user option" rather than a cheat. Nonetheless it didn't stop these players from calling Hyper Speed a cheat simply because it made the game easier, and while it does, it's not in the same way as a "hit every note automatically" theoretical cheat, you still have to Hit The Notes.

Hi-Fi Rush is ridiculously fun
First impressions of In Falsus, the upcoming lowiro rhythm game:
Very crisp and responsive controls! Having to shift 3 fingers to hit the center 4 notes along with moving the mouse has a novel feeling that really captures my attention.
The 5 songs in the demo are all bangers. I was able to clear all but the hardest chart when I really locked in.
The hint of VN story is intriguing, and points to a yuri apocalypse.
Keep an eye on this one, they may be a match for DJ MAX.
Okay Croissant is being a buggy mess so all you're getting is one hand-recreated scorepost from me
any1 wanna suffer from 300bpm train?
I picked this track first because it's my favorite one in Taiko no Tatsujin, sight-read FC, it's pretty easy tbh

Live testing for v5.5.2, which, amongst other things, replaces the then-existing chart note gen system with a more robust one written by BlockOG, had started since a few hours ago. Hope that fixes up the emptying-up-at-the-midway bug during certain chart songs up to this point.

Tonight on stream, I'm BREAKING THE LAW! Which law? They've BANNED MUSIC and I'm here to play as much of it as I can!
(This is the plot of the game.)

I'm making my first ever actual Settings screen! Am I a real game developer yet? π
anyways one more plug
if you're this desperate to move away from discord but you consider guild system essential, try hopping on root and see if it's your thing
if you're looking for E2EE and decentralization then scroll, that's not it
while it's in its infancy, imo it has ok foundation to be the more "normie" alternative; there's screensharing and VCs already, unfortunately no custom emojis/stickers (yet)
there's some issues with TOS but the devs clarified it will be officially rewritten - people got scared about "no porn" but it has been addressed that's not the case and it will be yoten from the guidelines
anyways if you're looking for some places i made 2 guilds:
- https://rootapp.gg/ACzomyuqjgq7cUW9d9N1tA (miiville, a community for anything related to nintendo + homebrew)
- https://rootapp.gg/ACzlrtO9jAqSFjNZXo8QOw (rhythm hell, focused towards arcade rhythm games but non-arcade are also welcome to join)
both are 16+, i'm not gonna check DoBs but pls don't make me a daycare teacher
also: if you're gonna reply with "but it has problems with X", please spare yourself the labor and instead go make your own post, i'm not saying it's perfect by any measure, but it looks more promising than you suggesting IRC or Matrix for the 67th time
boost so it reaches the right people lol

It's Sunday! Today Heller, Molly, Rhench, and I are playing Super Crazy Rhythm Castle! We beat the king, so now we're the king, and we have to banish the old king? We don't really know what's going on.

Didn't really scorepost while at the arcade because I was too tired.
It's almost done!!
The battery on my dremel-like tool died so I can't finish smoothing out the edges, but I did a test fit on the broken controller I bought to use for parts and I love it! It's such a small thing, but when I put this on my main controller and replace the neck, the main controller is going to look like a plastic replica of my main guitar. Even seeing this parts-controller has me grinning ear to ear!

Rizline, a mobile rhythm game, got a new port to PC. It has presumably the DLC songs all in one purchase for 50 USD, though currently on discount at 40.

Life took some turns so progress has been slow while life events took priority, but I'm finally back at this project! So far I've verified my dremel-like tool can cut through the pickguard material, but it's kind of slow. To make things easier on myself, I got out my cordless drill and used its largest bit to drill a bunch of holes along the pickguard's outline. This is going to be so cool when it's done!

So my motivation is back to do some gaming and I have ben wanting to go hard in I/A VT Colorful for a while now - the classic start from the bottom grind my way to the top deal. Still clearing my way thru the easy songs, so after I get into hard I might start posting some results screens #rhythmgames
