Great game and glad somethin' like this exists,but defiantly more aimed at higher level project diva players in the long run with how most maps are charted mod song wise. If you go into this as some fresh into rhythm games know that a majority of songs will be on the harder or extreme difficulty. Other wise the game is really good,ya can customize alot,and input is very well done. Hopefully in the future more can pick this up and chart in all-rounder ideas of difficulty for those who enjoy rhythm games or wish to get into 'em. >Pros: Very good input,lots of customization,mod support,and good selection of default songs. >Cons(temporary): Community charts heavily are skewed to more advance players in difficulty or skill with extreme difficulty meaning more maybe best off startin' with project diva before they play this.

User Reviews
I'll start off by saying I absolutely love the premise of this game. Haven't played a ton but as a veteran project diva player this is perfect. Only thing I wish to add is ever since the PC Release of MM+ I started playing with keyboard (yes we exist, all 5 of us) and using the shift buttons as sliders. Unfortuneatly this game does not feature separate left and right shift and it DESPERATELY needs to have that feature added not only for separate buttons but for macro support as well
