Did you just copy/paste the description on the game's website or something? goonish

I've heard about this game before, and it seems pretty fun. Watching that 2nd video though, I didn't get what the music aspect really did for it. It wasn't in sync with the song or anything, and the sound effects were annoying.

I got gifted this game due to massive begging.  giggle;

Or rather, I got gifted Beat Hazard Ultra. I got gifted Beat Hazard a year or two ago.  giggle;

This game is fucking excellent. Ultra makes it even better but I HATE STALKERS AND REPULSERS BUHHHHHHH. Everything else is badass.
