Poor hit detection Low qualiy UI Out of place tower defense mechanics Clunky Sword models Swords disappear and stop detecting hits when somewhat close to you This is very unfinished and not worth $20
complètement nul le jeux lag a mort meme pas la musique de base dans le jeux 0/20 17,99 euro omg omg omg proce 4.20 ghz graphique gainward gtx 970 phantom ram 32 go 1600
不得不说,体验实在太差了.....首先不支持FLAC格式的歌曲.. . 然后歌曲结束了以后都不知道怎么再选歌曲.按什么都没反映,游戏里的刀也经常砍不到东西.根本就无反应
The idea of sword slice and etc is nice but the game really needs more refining and description. Pros: dual wield swords (do I really need to explain this?) can load own music minion/castle feature can make game more interesting lots of potential not seen yet Cons: Minion/Castle bar in bad position, no time to pay attention to them Need more explaination regarding minion/castle building sword slicing detection needs improvement notes too big Would I recommend it at its current price? Most likely not. I believe the cons can be easily fixed but until then...
I like this game, but its one of those where I wish Steam had a "Maybe" vote instead of just Yes or No. [b]Pros[/b] Fun mix of Audioshield and ZenBlade/Fruit Ninja style gameplay. An interesting mechanic with the Tower Defense playing in the background, tied to how well you are doing slashing beats. Automatically generated beatmap doesn't feel too off in the songs I've tried so far. Having custom beatmaps is a plus. Many of the swords work different. Rapier can't slash beats, only 'stab', for example. [b]Cons[/b] UI needs some work, especially during a game (accidently hitting reset can happen if you are getting a bit crazy with your sword slashes) It's hard to pay attention to the castle/minion bars in any song that isn't somewhat slow, especially on Medium/Hard Beats are a bit large, can't see past them to prepare for subsequent beats. Sword slash detection can feel off, the 'cutting edge' isn't very generous (like in say, Fruit NInja) [b]Middle Ground[/b] The Tower Defense thing is a nice, unique touch, but it isn't very flashy or obvious. Some improvements to it could make it stand out. Succesfully cutting a beat doesn't make a sound, though that may or may not interfere with the song (option?) [b] Final Verdict (as of 7/13/16 version)[/b] It's fun and interesting. I like it a lot, but I cannot suggest it at this price point. It needs some work in the UI and control department, but they aren't extremely bad, just 'passable'. It gets a Yes from me though, as the Pros outweigh the Cons.
[h1] Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers [/h1] I love music rhythm games in VR. Soundboxing, Air Tone, Audio Shield, Music Box (free!), Beats Fever, Holodance, I like them all, and I probably missed a few and I didn't even count Rockband VR or the drumming VR games. Beat Ninja could be up there with the best of them. However, it has some serious issues that make it just recommendable for VR music rhythm fans like me. The core gameplay is awesome and different from all the other music rhythm games. I'm surprised nobody has stolen this formula and improved it. I would buy that game in a second. When this game works, it is a lot of fun and quite the workout. However, it doesn't always work, at least it doesn't work consistently enough. You have to overlook various issues to enjoy this game. Even on medium difficulty playing a local song from my PC that isn't really all that fast (Lightning Crashes by Live), it seemed that the notes were going by really fast, almost as fast as I could swing at times. And that's when the problems start. You do have to align your sword correctly to get a swing to register. But it seems that sometimes they just don't register. When it's slow it's never a problem. But when one note is right next to another one, it seems it's very inconsistent in registering. Another big issue is YouTube integration. It doesn't work at all. It says error downloading after you pick the song and then nothing works. You have to quit the game and restart even to select your own songs locally. I think that medium difficulty needs to be reworked with faster songs to go easier on the person. I'm not even sure how anybody could get hard difficulty. I coud barely finish 2 songs on medium difficulty before starting to break down in sweat and my arms feeling tired. Rate 6/10. Buy on sale. I had fun, but I also had a lot of frustration. I hope the dev polishes the game because it's a blast to play when it is working as intended.
very disappointing, I badly wanted to attack music with swords found a song tryd it! not so great, so I.. mapped a custom. saved it.(somewhere) go back click use custom song. browse more files but ninja beat not here. back to custom time spent checking drive for game install its like the 5th drive iam bored ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of navigating files in VR, I navigate to the last library and load the song and its custom track. The game and its position of each note is perfect, if your limbs are floating spaghetti like extremities that serpentine as if Medusa on bad hair day. Also felt like my centre line and the required games centre where at loggerheads. like its "body and mind where north and south" Great idea but ill wait til its finished. may try again though ...??
游戏是好游戏,玩法目前还不适合中国内入门玩家,详细测评在B站发了,准备先花1w买齐steam上所有的VR游戏进行测评,独立制作游戏虽然不乏精品,但是坑作也不少,希望我的测评对您有所帮助。 http://space.bilibili.com/10835521
Very cool game. i love how they allow you use your own music. That's just sick. Simple but alot of fun and very cool. Brillant concept. would be nice if the sword slashes had sound effects but hey you can't have everything right. What an amazing game. so much fun
