I don't know, I've only played the three tracks that come with the game and I'm already fully in love with it. Soundtrack is absolutely incredible, the game's art style is fascinating and looks like a game I would see in a dream. And of course everything involving the way Vibri animates, speaks and sings, I can't say enough good things about it. Games like these are little miracles when they happen and should be treated as such.

One thing I was worried about when starting this game was the timing, since it's developed by the same developer as the Parappa games, which on PS1 definitely gave me a hard time when it came to strict timing, but I actually found this game a lot more readable and reasonable when it came to note timing, for the most part. There are some parts of the game's three tracks that felt like getting the timing right was harder than it needed to be, but I wasn't stuck on stage 1 for days like Parappa. When the game gets hard, I actually get excited instead of terrified, which is also an improvement. Depending on how I feel about custom stages and after my attempts to get perfect on the on-disc games, I might even give this a 9/10, I'm really glad I finally decided to play this, it's a joy.
