Ratings and reviews

First off... this is way better than BEAT HAZARD ULTRA. However, it has one major issue... the AI sucks. Now, I am aware that the enemies and everything is fueled by the music, but even on tracks where the music is going hard, the AIs attacks are so slow and so easy to dodge, even on the highest difficulty, its just like "okay so... why is Asteroids on PS1 more difficult than this?" | All and all, if you want to enjoy your jams and play some games, its worth it. Good visuals and customization.

I have over 300 hours on Beat Hazard 2 for PC. This is that game but understandably stripped down. There's a lot of bugs here though and I've lost my save data twice. I've only had the game for a day. I can't get the radio stations to work at all. I've spent 3 hours downloading music only for the game to not recognize any of it. I've spent way more time frustrated than having fun. Just trying to get it to work the way I need it to. Oh well. I know it's a great game. Just so irritated with it.

6/9/23 EDIT: The notes say the authorizing bug has been fixed, but it has not. The problem might have to do with the fact that I use Koala Sampler on my phone, & as such, I have 17,000 some 1 second samples on my phone. ....... Love the game, but it gets stuck on the "authorizing" screen unless you turn off all internet. It works fine after that though, and you can turn internet back on once you're playing the game. Also, I don't think it's storing my high scores though on the world rankings.

What's new

Fix for Start up/Authorisation bug.
