but on his video he played a diferent version than this one. can we play too or we need to wait the complete game? i already finished the game in my pc, and i need those other levels ;-;
I specifically made an account just so I could make this comment. For some reason, this game is extremely charming to me, which is saying a lot because I get bored of most rhythm games within an hour of purchase. I'll definitely be donating as soon as I can. Great work!!
I cannot wait for this game to be out on Steam, I have been playing it ever since 2013. What can I say? The music is amazing (how many different styles there are), the gameplay is simple yet addictive, and I love how it teaches different things in music, like dotted eighth rhythms or 7/8 time to spice things up. The artwork is also adorable. I am a huge fan of Rhythm Heaven so of course I would love this game!!
Hey thanks, I composed the ones in the Flash demo :) You can find them on my soundcloud (https://soundcloud.com/fizzd) or in the Offline version of the game on this page.
Thanks, yeah that's exactly what we're going for with the level progression! Really happy you felt that way. Steam release this year 99%, and this half of this year 90%, we're working hard!
I remember playing this few months ago where I saw it on Reddit. I came across it again and I am really happy that it is coming to steam! Congratulations!
Truly a masterpiece. Especially if it's your first game. Everything about it is amazing, especially the occasional meta jokes here and there. Keep up the good work! I can't wait for the Steam Release. Do you plan on keeping player-made levels available?
I don't know why but once I get to the second phase of oriental insomniac the game has this horrible delay when I press space. I've played on different computers and browsers before and this has never happened, any help?
Man... something happened when I was playing the boss stage... static popped up, and it sounded like part of some other song started playing in the background...
you just have to press your spacebar harder, and make sure the noise of you hitting the spacebar is in sync with the music. the travel time of your spacebar makes enough difference between tapping and slamming it. hope that helps
(composer here) Thank you TheSimplify, really glad you like it!! We do have some callbacks to the oriental hiphop style later in the game. For now here's a similar track by The Shanghai Restoration Project you might like:
To be honest, I could care less if it restarted me back to the first level. After all, it would let me see the changes made, and i can listen to the awesome songs y'all made. But then again, that's just me. Good luck, and have fun making the game, i love it!
Classy (hard) feels a little bit easir to make an S on it rather than the day shift version, but it's possibly just the cues that the nurse is saying.
bye, and thanks for taking the time to look and answer my questions!
Cool game but the timing is absurdly strict to the point of even feeling off. It seems like there is only a 1 frame window to hit the beat and only getting it dead on counts.
Sorry it's unreasonably strict for you, different people have different expectations for sure. This game has a 0.07-second window on both sides. We chose the stricter side of things for this game, since the difficulty in other areas (multiple buttons, dense inputs per second) are nerfed by the core mechanic. We'd recommend games like Crypt of the Necrodancer if you enjoy more forgiving timing. Thanks for the comment, it's appreciated!
Hey again FingerHD, glad you're excited haha, unfortunately we really can't. It's our first game and so we haven't got a feel of how long things will take, gamedev can be full of surprises. Maybe if we were more experienced we could be confident enough to put a date to it. We'll definitely announce a date when we're closer to release though! The email subscription list at rhythmdr.com is a good idea if you don't want to miss the date if you haven't subscribed already.
that usually happens if you're using a newer flash projector. if you haven't, can you try using the one thats in the folder by dragging, like in the instructions in the text file? lmk if it doesnt help thanks
after downloading the game and getting it to run after i skip/wait out the tutorial scene it just says patient approacing NaN% and it dosent do anything after that help please.
I really, really love this game! It's a great inspiration and its so cool to see you being so responsive! I really love the character and charm, and the sprites for all the characters you've made are so cute and I love them so much!!! This is def one of my favorite games and im sure i'll love it so much more when it's done!
Ahh no problem!! Maybe one day i'll even draw some fanart even though im not too good with human characters < : 0 I've been spreading the word of this game to my pals, too! Thanks for makin this radd game
oh haha the kanye one? you can join our beta (which will be a little earlier) if you wanna help test at the same time - just send me an email - otherwise yeah end of june-ish it is
heya, right now that extra standalone level is broken yeah, but we've just set up a new server for our game. I'll probably be able to upload it on there in a few days, will reply to you here when i have!
Thank you very much, I also love how you reply almost inmediatly to the comments who have problems with the game and those with some feedback, which you actually consider for making the game better, harder, easier and enjoyable c:
I liked the December level. It was very challenging and took me at least 1/2 an hour. I can't say the same for the January one, however. It was sort of simple and took me about 5 minutes. I do have an idea for "Heartbreaker" mode where one (or two!) mistakes ends the game. If you beat it, you could get a "H" medal or something similar
hey jdfamnlj, thanks for the feedback! yeah the january one is meant to be 'for the person who has never played the game before', its like an alternative first stage. Whereas the december one was for the person who had completed the entire game, so yeah pretty much completely opposite difficulties.
Heartbreaker mode is a cool idea!! Functionally it would be the same as trying to get an S rank (except it just ends automatically rather than you restarting), which is why i wanted to use it only for the challenge levels and boss nightshift modes. But we could do it as a gauntlet, beat many stages in a row on 2-3 lives only. Maybe you have to beat all the levels in that act in a row, with heartbreaker mode, and its also doublespeed?

really glad you like what we're doing differently Von Falla, thanks for the comment!
This game is really really good, guys

Things got real crazy real fast

thank you (again)!! we are really glad you have stayed with the game for so long, really appreciate it!
Thank you for the playthrough!! You guys are great. Note you can enable a two player mode with the capslock key that might be fun :)
Will you make this a mobile game?
Planning on it but a looot later, maybe next year.
The music is awesome is there anyway I can get the music?
Hey thanks, I composed the ones in the Flash demo :) You can find them on my soundcloud (https://soundcloud.com/fizzd) or in the Offline version of the game on this page.
This game is awesome! However I do have a question, when the game comes to Steam, how much will the game cost?
Thanks! We'll figure it out when we finish the game in just a few months and can evaluate the value, but most probably around $10-$15!
Thanks, yeah that's exactly what we're going for with the level progression! Really happy you felt that way. Steam release this year 99%, and this half of this year 90%, we're working hard!
I remember playing this last year and i heard people talking about it recently so i came back to it and it's as good i remember
Thank you cakespy!
I remember playing this few months ago where I saw it on Reddit. I came across it again and I am really happy that it is coming to steam! Congratulations!
Thank you Serp, and glad you've come back!!
Thank you! I just went to try the level editor - although I killed all the patients, it was super fun! VERY looking forward to this!!
Truly a masterpiece. Especially if it's your first game. Everything about it is amazing, especially the occasional meta jokes here and there. Keep up the good work! I can't wait for the Steam Release. Do you plan on keeping player-made levels available?
Thank you :) Yes, the editor and user levels is definitely a big part of our game now.
What an amazing demo! Can't wait for the full game to be released on Steam this year.
Thanks Jackson!
当我听到1,2,3的时候抱歉我笑了2333
What are the extra songs in the assets file? I can't find the levels that pair with them. By the way, I really enjoy the demo, keep up the good work!
Thanks! Some are secret levels / WIP levels, and some are really just unused haha.
I don't know why but once I get to the second phase of oriental insomniac the game has this horrible delay when I press space. I've played on different computers and browsers before and this has never happened, any help?
sorry to hear that, thanks for the report! lemme follow up with you and give you a new unity version of that same level privately
Man... something happened when I was playing the boss stage... static popped up, and it sounded like part of some other song started playing in the background...
But seriously, why did the static happen?
Heh, easter egg! theres some conditions that make that part pop up :P
Yeah i found it to once i saw this comment and i just had to find it!
i am using chrome and i am terible. the best i got was c and it keeps teling me that i am hitting to early. pls help
you just have to press your spacebar harder, and make sure the noise of you hitting the spacebar is in sync with the music. the travel time of your spacebar makes enough difference between tapping and slamming it. hope that helps
thx... the tutorial said some thing about that but it was not obvious enough.
glad it helped~
I made an account just to comment on this. Oriental Insomniac is a masterpiece, and I'd love to see more of that kind of music on release!
(composer here) Thank you TheSimplify, really glad you like it!! We do have some callbacks to the oriental hiphop style later in the game. For now here's a similar track by The Shanghai Restoration Project you might like:
About insomniac,no,theres no unglitched version
About Intimate,dude theres youtube/google or even soundcloud
Really glad you like it Nekone, yeah we will be releasing a soundtrack for sure.
Edit: Insomniac unglitched is a cool idea! Might consider that.
Hey,thats pretty cool game tho,i hope it would get online mode! Also,i cant donate,well,ill give you moral help,good job!
thanks! Moral support is appreciated :D glad you like the game.
Yeah i liked it,my grandpa doesnt like me playing oriental insomniac (because im mashing my Spacebar xD)
its me again!
So multiplenquestions.
1: is there going to be a version for the kindle? And if so, when?
2: Is it going to be possible to access the current online easter eggs in the steam version?
3:Will people who have downloaded the demo get their current progress transfered to the steam version, or will we have to do it all over again?
Sorry about the overflow of questions, notice me senpai.
Peace
hey! you are noticed :P
1. kindle fire you mean? possibly but no guarantees, and only after the steam version
2. some of them!
3. interesting suggestion, wasnt planning on it. But it would probably take a day to get working if we did do it. do you think its important?
To be honest, I could care less if it restarted me back to the first level. After all, it would let me see the changes made, and i can listen to the awesome songs y'all made. But then again, that's just me. Good luck, and have fun making the game, i love it!

Is there any more specific release date then Q3 2017? I really can't wait any longer for RD to arrive!

I downloaded the offline demo but the game gets stuck after the tutorial and says Patient approaching..NaN%http://imgur.com/a/nHsQV
that usually happens if you're using a newer flash projector. if you haven't, can you try using the one thats in the folder by dragging, like in the instructions in the text file? lmk if it doesnt help thanks
Very . nice gamE!!
your games are great also!! Release quick!
after downloading the game and getting it to run after i skip/wait out the tutorial scene it just says patient approacing NaN% and it dosent do anything after that help please.
hey, i guess you are talking about the offline version? can you send me an empty email so i can send you an alternative version of the demo?

I really, really love this game! It's a great inspiration and its so cool to see you being so responsive! I really love the character and charm, and the sprites for all the characters you've made are so cute and I love them so much!!! This is def one of my favorite games and im sure i'll love it so much more when it's done!

hahaha :DD made our day. our artist winston thinks it looks very looney tunes! thanks for the art!!
Hey Eg-Ge, we are aiming to release on mobile at the end of June, for iOS and Android stores. But why an .ipa, is there no App Store in your country?
oh haha the kanye one? you can join our beta (which will be a little earlier) if you wanna help test at the same time - just send me an email - otherwise yeah end of june-ish it is
ah, in that case you can just use the rhythmdr.com signup form :)
Is the level steinway fully broken?
I followed the instructions and it worked perfectly but now that I want to play it again it doesn't work
heya, right now that extra standalone level is broken yeah, but we've just set up a new server for our game. I'll probably be able to upload it on there in a few days, will reply to you here when i have!
Thank you very much, I also love how you reply almost inmediatly to the comments who have problems with the game and those with some feedback, which you actually consider for making the game better, harder, easier and enjoyable c:
Alrighty! here it is:
http://rhythmdr.com/RDSteinway/index.html
bonus: http://rhythmdr.com/RDKanye/index.html
let me know if you have any problems and thanks for the kind comments!
Thanks to you, I'll let you know if there's any problem with it.
Also, finally got an S on doublespeed Steinway :D
I liked the December level. It was very challenging and took me at least 1/2 an hour. I can't say the same for the January one, however. It was sort of simple and took me about 5 minutes. I do have an idea for "Heartbreaker" mode where one (or two!) mistakes ends the game. If you beat it, you could get a "H" medal or something similar

But we could do it as a gauntlet, beat many stages in a row on 2-3 lives only. Maybe you have to beat all the levels in that act in a row, with heartbreaker mode, and its also doublespeed?
That would be impossible and rage inducing. I love it
