<obligatory "steam needs a mixed review option" statement here>

I've had this game on my wishlist for a long time, and tonight I finally got around to playing it. I can tell so much love and effort went into this game. It's essentially if you took a single rhythm heaven minigame, fully fleshed it out, and turned it into a full game (i mean this in a good way). The music is also really good, spaghetti speedway especially so. There is so much about this game that I love, which is why it pains me to ultimately give it a negative review. My main problem with it are the joke stages. While many of them are fun, the fact that they are tied to progression leaves a sour taste in my mouth, it ultimately feels like padding to get the game to 15 stages. I know this game's development is long past, but if I were to suggest a way to fix this, put the joke levels in a separate category like you did with the extra stages.

tldr, fun game, good music, ruined by padding.
