Many people will tell you that rhythm games as we know them were born with the Japanese PlayStation One title PaRappa the Rapper in 1997. The concept is fairly simple and this idea is the backbone of all rhythm games. Players must hit combinations of buttons with precision to audio and visual cues. This sub genre of games challenges the player’s sense of rhythm. Rhythm games have been around for a surprisingly long time and it’s safe to say they won’t be going anywhere any time soon. From tapping away with a stylus on any of the Nintendo DS family, to giving your thumbs a serious workout on a smartphone or jamming on a virtual guitar controller, everyone has played some form of rhythm game. Many people have stuck with their favourite franchise for years and will continue to do so for many more to come.

But everyone who has ever enjoyed a rhythm game, whether casual or competitive, has fond memories of their first game. The most common responses are Dance Dance Revolution, Guitar Hero or Rock Band and fans of Japanese pop culture are excited to start talking about the Hatsune Miku: Project Diva games. If you ask someone what their favourite rhythm game is, most people have an enthusiastic response.

God of Riffs is still in development, and according to their Early Access info box the development is planned for the next 2-3 months-which I just don’t feel is enough time to add significantly more content and address its gameplay issues. It’s entering into Early Access tomorrow, but I suggest you steer clear until more tracks are added, and the mechanics are refined.
