Beat School is really really fun. I'm getting the ones with chords pretty easily. Need more stuff like the Roll the Bass Dice, plz.
Wario's right; this somewhat does feel a little like the Lumines of platformers in a way.
Felt more comfortable doing the Death Mode on PS3 because I liked the controls there better. Doing the Beat School on Vita. It's too bad the Vita version has longer loading times, while the PS3 version takes very little time to load stuff up.

How do you log out of PSN from the xmb?
You press Triangle on Account Management, and it'll give you the option of signing out.
I finally got off work and managed to complete the first album, and the first level of album 2. I even played a community level, and I have to say, I'm in love with the look, feel, and potential of this game.
The music is fantastic, the visuals are beautiful, and the potential for some truly stunning, creative levels is great.
I also find the platforming really responsive and well done. Challenging to. So glad I took the plunge and bought it.
And I agree that Rowdy Cloudy was a really cool level. It's hard to not blow through the game, but I don't mind, since the community is already at work producing stuff. I'm thinking I may want to clear the game and unlock all the editor pieces before I go for it and make my own level.

Also, it's fun adding secret locations that rewards exploration.
Yeah, I'm going to hide a huge Mega Man face in the level I create. Speaking of secret locations, did anyone else LOL @
the big Deadmau5 face hidden in (I think...) Invaderoids? I was like, oh let me go back and try to scale that wall, I'll bet there's a note there. Instead I just get "=D"

Hmm I think I might bite on this tomorrow. Really glad to see games PS3/Vita games that you only have to buy once.
Beat School was definitely more interesting. Though I think it'll be boring for some people and trophy hunters will just cheat.
Yep. Yep. It was a huge letdown imo, especially after it was sorta hyped on PS Blog last week.

I want more Beat School.
That stuff was fun. It just felt like it was only beginning with the Muting Technique one because you had more stuff to do compared to the previous ones, but that was the last one unfortunately.
Now to do the rest of Death Mode (maybe later).

This game is so good it makes the "it's not a game" discussion from the main Vita thread earlier all the more hilarious.
I had no idea I would enjoy it this much.
Hopefully GB will do a quick look -- they seemed excited for it -- and convince even more people to pick it up. This game deserves great sales numbers.

They haven't given any reason. It wasn't delayed, just releases a week later. It's annoying tbh.

I just completed the campaign and jumped into the Death Mode everybody has been bitching about. At first I thought this is actually not bad, people are exaggerating, until it hit me that half of the trophies are tied to it. Yeah, it doesn't make sense, but still a fun mode. So why were people bitching about it requiring more luck than skill? That was about the time I started playing Sparkle Darkle (1-2) which made me want to break my Vita at first. But it took me a while to realize I was doing it wrong; the critters launch me to death only if I jump twice on a single one.
Now I'm hoping every level has a solution to rebut the "luck" claims because I can't take much more of that frustrating "I wanna break my Vita" feeling.

Sorry Wario64. I beat your time on the level "Personnel"

I think the talk of luck is based on the icons that you collect appearing in the same area. I had one stage where all of them appeared in the same little area and I easily cleared it. But a lot of times they would appear all over the place.

Anamanaguchi + Paul Robertson levels would be boss.
Everyone really seems to like the superbrothers levels except me. :/

I don't know why I didn't look into this game sooner. I kept seeing it mentioned, but I never really gave it much thought.
I literally just watched a trailer for it, and then I bought it.
YOLO... Er, YOPO.

Campaign probably took me around four hours if I had to guess.

DLC is definitely coming so that makes me very happy.
How long is this if you just run right through it?
Is that so?

Definitely. I played through 3 or 4 albums last night and really enjoyed what I saw. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the game tonight.

this is a game I can actually see myself getting DLC for, would love if other major artists got involved

What I don't get is how Wario can platinum everything in like 6 hours, but it looks like he only has 17 stars~

I'm sure I'm in a minority here but I would love to create some levels with metal elements (loud and heavy drums, highly distorted guitars, all that good stuff). There were a few Lumines skins in Electronic Symphony that would be perfect to pull sounds from.

Loving this so far.
Awesome that you can queue up levels online like LBP. Even has a good mobile site. Very nice.

Y'know what would be an amazing fit in Sound Shapes? Blood Diamonds (feat. Grimes) - Phone Sex

Some of her other tunes combined with some natty visuals would make for killer DLC, no question. She's Canadian as well, which means Queasy have a duty to make it happen!

Hmm, I'm sure they could make it work on a touch device BUT the platforming does require quite a bit of precision that might become frustrating with a touch screen.

I have to admit, this game is pretty fun.
Beat the game and have gathered about half of the trophies. I don't hate the Death Mode like some, but agree it's too reliant on generous "spawns."
Such a good game. Somehow ended up enjoying it even more than I thought I would. The Beck album was a perfectly touching ending to an evening in with the boyfriend (who is currently working on an amazing level), passing the controller back and forth with perma-smiles on our faces.
