There is also a light platform sub-genre blended into this game’s story mode as well. Which in truth sounds a little boring, but every level is so fresh, new and exciting, that you genuinely cannot wait to start up that next beat and see what’s waiting for you.
Every level has the same goal and concept. Just Shapes and Beats works almost like a blend of those two aforementioned genres, but the lovable little square you control has no projectiles to protect itself with and you do not need a sense of rhythm to be able to progress.
However, the creativity shown here around those two very simple concepts blew my mind.Īt first glance it may look like an intricate, complicated rhythm game, or some type of quirky shmup/bullet-hell game, but it’s actually neither. An exquisite and perfectly suited title for this fantastic game, as it quite literally is, just shapes and beats.
