Challenging, beautiful first act from Chainsawesome Games! Give it a try!

Beatblasters is an unique blend of platforming and rhythm. The game is beautiful, the art style is topnotch, sometimes weird but always appealing. The music is fantastic too, transforming as you use of the 3 powers. It's electronic with dubsteb.

Rhythm games: you either love 'em or hate 'em... If you belong in the former category you will love BeatBlasters III. If you fall in the later then stear clear, you won't like it.

Although this fact didn't alter my purchase decision at all as BeatBlasters III is a great game and definitely worth a purchase.
