Pretty cool, if you like EDM and bullet hell games then would recommend. Some of the songs felt a bit generic to me but the effects syncing to their beat was well done and made for fun stages. I would say it’s probably most enjoyable with friends though

Not so much a rhythm game as much as it is a bullet hell. Pretty challenging and is one of the few games I can play on road trips

I don't think I've ever played a game that felt more "made for me". Rhythm based gameplay, unbelievable soundtrack and just an overload of juice. Love this game!

I've had Just Shapes & Beats on my radar for a while now, and I'm glad I finally got around to it.
Considering myself an avid fan of rhythm games, this one is unique. While the electronic/techno music isn't really my kind of thing, I couldn't help but find myself tapping my feet or bobbing my head along with it (and it significantly improved my performance btw).

While not the longest game, it the main story has just enough content. One thing I did notice is that there didn't seem to be any type of difficulty curve to be defined. Some levels would present much frustration, and the next would be like nothing.

I'm looking forward to replaying/trying the other modes, but for now that's a wrap on the main story.

A fun take on a rhythm game that definitely isn’t my favorite but one that I thoroughly enjoyed nonetheless. The beatmaps (if that’s what you want to call them) are very pretty, and definitely the main draw of the game.


It's fun, a minimalist/light bullet-hell set against a collaborative soundtrack. I enjoyed the story mode, which has a nice difficulty curve and some extra world-map sections to break up gameplay. Unlocking levels past story mode felt convoluted and grindy.

WHO IN THE WORLD WAS IN THE STUDIO?????

La mejor palabra para definirlo es: divertido. No hace falta decir más, jugar esto está muy guay y el modo historia es muy chulo y gracioso, bastante disfrutón
No se lleva el sello "20/10 y god" porque tampoco es la divina papaya pero joder, es un muy buen juego y me gustan muchas de las canciones que hay en él, sobre todo gracias a este jueguito he recordado la canción de Airborne Robots que es tremendo temazo

A pretty fun little game based entirely around dodging obstacles that move to the beat of music. Introduced by an online friend when she was staying over my house when visiting my country, and I ended up buying it. My nephew liked it too, and he got it for his own Switch. Or I got it for him. Forget which.

would it be a copout to say this is my favorite ost

Holy moly this was almost everything I like put into one game. Cool rhythm/shmup gameplay.

Enjoyable for a while, but a little repetitive and never really gave me a reason to keep playing.

Amazing rhythm-based bullet-hell. Love the simple style, the patterns and the music. The boss levels are so fun.

really solid bullet hell. bought this on a whim because of the like 10 second look we got in a nintendo direct and loved it. every single levels sticks out with them making you do new things in each one and all of the side content that was added as well as the colabs were pretty sick. the story is cute and its just a super fun game to pop in and play a few rounds. also a great party game (pull this game out with a group who has never seen it before and you will have a great time)

They weren't lying, that really was just shapes and beats

This game was super fun and I had a lot of fun playing it. It has great level design and a soundtrack that I can't help but bob my head to. Where this game really shines is in multiplayer. I have had so much fun playing challenge mode or even just the story mode with my family.

I wish that there was online co-op for the story mode. That seems like a strange omission.

The lack of checkpoints during long boss battles is really frustrating. I know it's supposed to be difficult, but at the normal difficulty level they wouldn't be out of place, IMO.

the way this game shaped my taste in music the year it released. sad, depressing times

Great music, great gameplay, surprisingly good story. Great to co-op with friends

Music is great, gameplay is quite middling. Shame.

I LOVE YOU SHAPES AND BEATS!!!!!!!!!!

i used to hate electronic/dubstep music before i played this game, fun fact

Levels need a bit of work, still makes a very fun experience despite that

Pretty epic game with cool music, cool gameplay and a surprisingly simple but cool story.
If you are not a huge fan of dubstep or rythm games you may not like this as much.

Overall, pretty good. 8/10.
