Really great album. It's too bad the game attached to it isn't totally amazing at times, with moments where you have to fight the preset camera, but the actual format is fun. I think I do prefer rhythm games like Thumper, where you have something a little more engaging to do, but I appreciate this game for what it is.
This game really is something else.
The soundtrack, art style, and fluid gameplay will keep me coming back and playing it through again and again. Highly, highly recommended. Play with headphones and, if possible, play through in a single sitting.

are you tired of just hearing music ? what if you can SEE MUSIC ?
So passionate, confident, and uncompromising in its pop-album vision that it's hard not to immediately fall in love (THAT MAIN MENU THEME ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?).
Just like Game Score Fanfare explains in his wonderful video, the entire game is designed around the conventions of pop music, not just copying but integrating what makes pop so darn infectious into the very fabric of the game.
A short but infinitely re-playable joyride that I don't think I will ever get enough of.

"Not long ago, in a town much like yours
There was a young woman who fell
Out of love
Asleep
Away
For years she fell through spirals of sadness and anger
Until she could not fall any deeper
And fell right back"

What a dazzling game. Best album I've ever played.
It's a catchy pop album fused with a video game with fantastic style, direction, and pacing. You can easily beat this in a single sitting, and you won't regret it one bit.

This is one of those musical/rhythm games you need to beat in one sitting as it only takes an hour to finish. What a journey it was.
Fun arcadey game with great music and visuals.
Amazing style.
PERFECT VIDEOGAME ALBUM EXPERIENCE
every time i play this game i have to cry real hard. i would write something more significant or profound about loving and hurting or whatever but it's pretty hard to do that through the waterfall of tears pouring out of my face
short but super enjoyable experience, just a really clean burst of action with gay stuff and awesome music that doesn't even have time to overstay its welcome (also queen latifah is there)
Was für ein Ritt!
+ Sehr kreatives Leveldesign
+ Toller Soundtrack
+ NEON!
+ Schwere stellen einfach skipbar <3

This is a complete masterpiece and so underrated, this is not completely a game, this is a whole experience, and i must say that this was one of the best experiences i ever had in my life. Im writing this after beating the game and this game left me so mentally exhausted that made me think of the rating, but it was completelly worth it, you must play this, just put your headphones on a high volume and enjoy this one hour magnific creation.
I swear i started levitating during "Begin again" on my first playtrough
I'm surprised another pop artist hasn't done something like this? A playable album is an amazing idea and it works really well here.
Sayonara Wild Hearts ist quasi ein spielbares Album. Kurzes, aber extrem spaßiges Rhythm Game. Musik ballert wie sonst was, Level Design ist unfassabr kreativ und alle Rätsel und goldenen Ränge zu holen scheint auch gar nicht mal so einfach zu sein (Ich denke zumindest alle Gold Ränge will ich mal holen). Alles in allem extrem gutes, quirky Indie Rhythmus Spiel. Klare Empfehlung, vor allem wenn man auf Rhythmus Spiele steht

only music album that also happens to be a video game
for carly rae jepsen this is just a typical wednesday
Slide your way into the hazy waves of neon and electro-pop mania with a brief yet enticing story of a woman finding back her groove through different heartbreaks.
It immediately pulls you in with its excellent presentation, seamless choreography and captivating eye candy. Although, it's mechanically simple, you'll embrace its maximalist aesthetics and beg for it to never stop. It is just that good.
No sayonaras.

Sayonara Wild Hearts is simultaneously dreamlike and exhilarating, blending deeply satisfying, high-speed arcade-rhythm gameplay; a brilliant soundtrack that's bursting at the seams with excitement; beautiful, stylish neon art; fluid, emotive animations; and insane camera work that made me feel like I was flying through a movie.
The game is ultimately an exploration of post-breakup grief. Despite being frequently abstract and symbolic, Sayonara Wild Hearts' narrative seamlessly weaves between the game's stunning sights and sounds to push you to feel the deep pain that accompanies heartbreak — but also, the amazing, exhilarating joy of coming out the other side alive and brimming with more love for yourself and others than you thought was possible.
The game does all of this while remaining unusually accessible for those of us who are less skilled. Sayonara Wild Hearts autosaves progress frequently throughout each level, allowing players to replay sections after a hiccup instead of forcing a hard restart. Whenever I'd fail a section a few times, it nonjudgmentally empowered me to skip that section, should I so choose. Through these key design choices and the game's intentionally simple controls, I felt like the developers were encouraging me to to be curious, put faith in my intuition, and take risks.
A powerfully evocative game. I highly recommend it.

Meu deus do céu, que viagem incrível esse jogo me trouxe! Músicas excepcionais, controles simples, mas muito eficientes, estilo de arte e cenários de tirar o fôlego, tudo isso contido em menos de uma hora de jogo que sei que vai ficar na minha memória. Joguei no mobile, mas reconheço que ele merece ser jogado em uma tela grande para que toda sua beleza seja apreciada.
Vale a pena para todos os amantes de música e video-games.

future landmark of new-sincerity (and also so much freakin fun)
This game is like being invited to an awesome dance party that you don't know any of the moves to. It's exciting and there's a lot of beautiful crazy stuff going on - but damn if you don't feel like an ass bumbling your way through the routines like your first day at a dancercise class.
The whole game is dripping with style, drawing on a mix of 60's style combined with a surreal dreamy glittering space theme. It works really well and the visuals are a treat from start to finish. It's a shame then that some of the levels are super short, it's a real mixed bag of song lengths.
Every stage gives you a certain level of freedom to move around, but has an expected path based on the strings of collectibles that are hard to follow and appear abruptly. The game does nothing to guide you it just kinda expects you to figure it out so you're sure to crash and ruin the songs multiple times.
Everything is scored to a space pop opera that never fails to be enjoyable while it lasts and levels have you zipping at high speed around dreamy scenes fending off against tarot card inspired antagonists. Once you've played it a few times you'll be dancing along with the music and scoring points but until then expect your first run through to be a sort of practice for the real thing.
Creative, stylish, and great sound track, but maybe a bit too much style over substance here? There's just a level of accessibility missing.

Though short, Sayonara Wild Hearts, is an experience full of creativity, style and impact. It’s an audiovisual feast of a game, its unique visual style combining perfectly with its pop-py, electronic music to create a unique, frenetic and unforgettable ride.
The rhythm gameplay of Sayonara is simple, but changes enough from stage to stage to never become stagnant. It's also very lenient, allowing anyone to experience it regardless of being good at rhythm games.
Overall, 1-2 hours of wonderful music and art and a fun ride? Yes please.
7.7/10
