Airtone is an [b]excellent[/b] rythm game with predefined song mappings. In addition to the main gameplay being highly polished, it also features great production quality, solid tech (including great image quality), and extremely aesthetically pleasing design both during the songs and throughout the menu/hub. There is a great variety of unique 3D environments for the songs. Looking at the achievements versus what I've completed so far in a bit more than 2 hours of gameplay it's quite packed with content too, well worth the purchase at its current price. If I had to criticize anything, the english VA's delivery is slightly clumsy at times - but it's still charming.

About This Game

Airtone is a brand-new type of VR rhythm game that allows you to enter a virtual world along with the main character, Neon. The spectacular music and visuals make for an all-new arcade rhythm game experience!
With sophisticated VR game controls, the player matches the hand controllers to markers as they fly down the lanes. There are three kinds of markers, "smash", "trigger", and "press and hold". Hit these markers in time to the music as you soar through the air.
Airtone boasts a deep story that sets it apart from other rhythm games. The player receives support from Neon, and moves the story along by gathering the "Rhythm" residing in the music. As you progress through the game, you find out more and more about the mysteries surrounding Neon and the world you find yourself in.

Glorified Samba de Amigo rhythm game (no punches here, Vive wands are like maracas) with finally a first class arcade/console quality standard and budget. Things you should know about Airtone: 1) set japanese speech with subtitles in options, so much better! 2) 25 tracks with three different levels each, lot of stuff; 3) challenging, not for those easy to be frustrated; 4) when an item in the room has a rainbow ring, click it for new story details; 5) the main avatar is lovely, high quality cel shading and animation (more details here: http://airtone-vr.com/core_sys/images/contents/00000004/base/l1.jpg ); 6) nothing similiar to Audioshield or Soundboxing.
This game is legit. The gameplay is very unique for a VR rhythm game and it takes advantage of the format really well. There are 25 original tracks, all in the Japanese rhythm game vein (If you're familiar with Cytus, Voze, Superbeat: Xonic you'll know what I mean), but there's a good variety between them. The difficulty ramps up real hard outside of the basic difficulty, but half the fun of this game is going to be mastering the songs. It also happens to be a pretty beautiful looking with some eye popping colors and a very polished presentation. It even has a main hub room where the main character speaks to you (fully voiced) and explains things about the world you're playing in and you can unlock a few little toys to play with there. Overall, it's really good. If you're in to Japanese rhythm games and the music in the trailer is up your alley, I definitely recommend it.
One of the most polished VR rhythm titles to date. If you're at all a fan of the rhythm music genre, this is a must buy; a true next-gen fulfills the potential of VR (for the genre) completely sort of game, it'll get your body moving around to its frenetic pace (at medium difficulty and harder) and still leave you wanting more even as you wheeze for more breath! The music is great, the presentation is great, the beat maps are great, there's a nice chilled out hub where you get rewarded with toys as you unlock more of the game and perform well. It even has a cute/thoughtful girl mascot in the hub to liven the place up a little (and make it feel less sterile). SSS rank!
Airtone is one of the best music games in VR (and arguably a better game at this time than Beat Saber). The game is incredibly well polished and even has a small story to go with it. Not only does it have 30 songs with 3 difficulties, but the beat maps are really fun to play. The first video that shows someone playing the game may make it look boring, but the gameplay is a lot funner than it looks; the beat maps almost make you feel as if you are dancing (albeit standing in place). The game also has a lot of replayability as you can unlock a variety of furniture for the hub and because it will take a while to master all of the songs. My biggest con with the game is that English VA for Neon (the companion in the game) is pretty bad, but if you switch it to Japanese, Neon sounds good. Overall, I highly recommend Airtone to anyone looking for a VR music game.
As someone who loves music games, this is literally my killer app. This game made VR worth it for me. First off this is actually challenging, this is an ARCADE style rhythm game. Vibrant colors, anime waifus, scores, timing, DIFFICULTY. It's all here. This is the type of game you play more and more of to improve and get better, and that might not be everyones bag so please keep that in mind. Even still this game has POLISH. From the theme, the hub, and to the anime girl guide. There was love put into this and you can tell immediately. If I have ONE complaint its that the english voice acting is... well... she's not a professional or anything which is fine. But the Devs included the option for japanese with subtitles and i couldnt recommend it enough. If I have one wish its that this game receives updates. DLC. THERE BETTER BE MORE WHEN IM DONE DAMMNIT. But with the difficulty I'll be here for awhile ;D
Neon *sigh* I'm in love with a fictional, underaged, VR android. That's 4 different perversions. 10/10 Would go to 4 different jails for Neon *sigh*
This is the perfect VR rhythm game. It seems unbelievable to me that this gem of a game seems to have been largely overlooked by both rhythm gaming and VR gaming communities. This game has already perfected VR rhythm gameplay and I don't think any other game has come close. The mechanics make great use of your full arm span, combining individual notes into big movements that feel amazing to execute. It has a high difficulty ceiling, ensuring you have many goals to work up towards, while the level design still ensures a good time. Even then, it doesn't forget its rhythm game roots, and has notes that require button inputs to mix up gameplay. Unlike certain other VR rhythm games, scoring on all notes is directly tied to timing accuracy only, so you can be assured that getting better at timing and executing movements will actually result in score improvements. And yet, what really makes this game is all the personality it has. It's vibrant and colorful, with incredible environments that...
A bit boring for me as I don't like the music, just not my cup of tea. The tutorials were forcefully slow and frustrating also
10/10 First VR Game worth it's Price! This is a really cool Rhythm Game. There are 25 Songs which you unlock by playing and interacting with objects that progress the short story. The Songs fit the overall Theme of the Game great and are fun to listen to even after the umpteenth attempt. Each Song has 3 Difficulties: Basic gets you started and used to the controls On Medium things start getting challenging Hard is truly HARD in this Game and a lot of fun. Expect to sweat a lot! The controls are super responsive and if I missed a note I never thought it was due to the game or clunky controls. Only small gripe I have with this game is that the English Voice of your Android Companion Neon is atrocious. Luckily you can change it in the Options to Japanese with English Subtitles. I am playing this Game nearly every day now for a 45mins-1h session to (hopefully someday) get my SSS Rankings on Hard Difficulty.
