Spin Rhythm

- Andy Kelly

At the bottom of the screen is a two-color wheel, and it’s by turning this that you interact with the music and keep the beat flowing. Then things get more complex as button taps, spins and other twists to the formula stack up during a song. It’s a beautifully elegant control system, and makes you feel genuinely connected to the music, as all good rhythm action games should.

The music in the game comes courtesy of a number of independent electronic artists including Hyper Potions, Subtact, Seejay, and Oxford Parker. Chances are you haven’t heard of them, but rest assured the music—from lazy chiptune beats to pounding glitchstep—is perfectly suited to the game.
