LOUD: My Road to Fame

Loud: My Road to Fame is a rhythm game where play as a younger girl who finds fame as a rockstar and also learn about growing up. The gameplay is straight forward and easy at first glance, as there are 3-3 lanes on the left and right where beats appears and you need to react to it, according to the song you playing. There are long notes and notes where you need to mash, and you can also whammy long notes. Seems easy enough, but later songs gets more difficult and complex, and also there are multiple difficulty levels, so the game can offer some challange too. Visuals are modest and colorful. Songs are mainly rock and alternative rock tracks, most of them without any lyrics, which might sound a bit blend for some but most of them are okay. LOUD in general is a fine indie game, however I felt the game is missing some things. For example, the story is cute and has an interesting message, but to me it wasn't really that big of deal. It does effect the visuals of the chapters and even the character's clothing and guitar, but that's about it honestly for me. Also, throughout the songs and at the end of the song it starts to get annoying to me to hear the character keep saying things. Then, the hit detection makes the game harsh and difficult, even though you can adjust the tempo. And finally the game feels short and don't have enough content. Even though the game has 21 songs it just feels really short. This is also thanks to the story and the overall gameplay. Even though I'm not the biggest fan of this game, it's still an alright one to play if you don't have anything else to play. It's not bad, but not that good either in my opinion. Get it only if you are fine with the short playtime and have nothing else to play, other than that you should just skip it. Try to get it around 2-3€ max.

Cute little rythym game, nothing special but well done. Played through the story mode in a little under two hours, looking forward to going back and perfecting the songs

La verdad que un juego super bonito y divertido ,las canciones estan geniales y rompen con la costumbre de hacer el 90% de los ritmicos de musica electronica o asiatiaca . dandonos asi un repertorio increible con canciones de metal y rock originales sumadas al dlc que tiene algunas colaboraciones interesantes , La historia del juego es normal bastante cliche y basica pero sigue siendo linda. La jugabilidad sorprende ya que no creo que sea tan dificil como la mayoria de juegos actuales de ritmo a menos que pongas sus canciones EXTRAS en el modo libre que esas si son mas picantes, pide como minimo el uso de 6 botones y como maximo 8 cada boton representa una cuerda de la guitarra y las otras dos las pedaleras ,no paro de pensar que con el periferico de la guitarra este juego sumaria muchos puntos lamentablemente yo no la tengo. Su Arte es espectacular y me encanta cada aspecto de la protagonista y lo detallados que estan AUNQUE no hay muchos mapas , ni tampoco personajes extra que hubieran sumado mucho. para mi un juego redondo NOTA 8,5

Um ótimo jogo de ritmo. O modo história é curtinho, mas as músicas são boas e a gameplay do jogo é bem satisfatória. Recomendo.

You Know I feel like this game has alot of potential if optimized a little better maybe adding some custom features too allow people to import their own mp3 songs and just UI Updates otherwise good game story is cool about as much as you would think from a music based game overall 6.5/10

I enjoyed this game, the mechanics feel really distinct from other rhythm games. I thought the soundtrack was really solid for the most part. The achievement for passing all main story songs on Skillin' difficulty without missing wasn't as bad as I thought it might be, especially because I had been trying to complete all of the songs on Grindin' difficulty for that achievement. I think it's best to do it that way so that when you go back to Skillin', it seems easier. I do feel like different songs might have different calibrations or maybe I just never got mine feeling quite right. At the same time, some notes seem a little off. The game would really benefit from having some kind of practice mode, or being able to change the speed of the notes because they can get really jumbled together and it can take a lot of trial and error guesswork just to hit a pattern right. This was especially true for me on the song "Don't Grow Up" because I had played the first four entire minutes of the song, usually missing anywhere from 0-3 notes, and I would fail at that next section because I was finding it hard to grasp. It was really unfun spending all that time just waiting to fail because the only way I could practice that part was to just keep playing almost the entire song. "I'll Let You Go" took me a lot of attempts to pass as well, it might have been the worst song when it came to using all of the lanes really quickly and trying to decipher which note comes first. I think this game would be preferable to be played on a controller that has separate buttons for the d-pad and not one like the Xbox's that is all connected and kind of "rolls". It can be easy to make some inputs on accident. There's a short story in between songs, but it doesn't really take up much time. It's charming but not really that engaging. There is some outfit, instrument and stage customizations, not a lot to it though. I preferred the Festival stage because it seemed to clash the least with the note tracks. Overall, it's a really nice looking game and I'm glad I got it during Steam's rhythm game sale.

As far as rhythm games go, I've never seen one quite so well adapted for playing with controller. The six button, three for each side, feels incredibly intuitive, and I'm surprised I'd never seen anyone else come up with it already! The songs are catchy, and offer a fair variety of difficulty. But if you're buying this game do it for the gameplay, the story is bland.
