This sure is a very fun and addicting game. First off, the sounds and music of this game were very good. I especially liked that catchy jazz tune you added at the beginning. I just had to replay it over and over again, I loved it. I liked the "boom" sounds the shapes make as well, it sounds kinda funny. Beside the sounds and music, the graphics were also pretty good. Everything looked very nice and colorful, yet very simple.

I thought this game had a very realistic physics engine as well. Except for when the really large shapes came in. For some reason all the shapes below the big shape start to shake out of control while the big shape would normally compress them, increasing the friction making it harder for them to move. So that could've been done better perhaps. But other than that, it was very good and felt very realistic in most levels.

Furthermore I thought the level designs were great. They got very challenging in the end and you really had to think and try a couple of times before you knew how to stack them up right. Then when you completed the game, the extra mode gave an even bigger challenge. I thought that was a very nice idea since it adds some replay value to the game.

Overall 9 out of 10, 5 out of 5. A very nice game like I said. Looking forward to a third version of this game. Keep up the excellent work.

I think the idea of this game was pretty good. It seems like a mix of several older concepts, but you managed to turn it into something fun and new. I think it´s nice that you made it focus on the music. I like the piano as an instrument and I really liked the music in this game.

What I think this game needs though is a serious graphical upgrade. The grey background, the white and black text and the black squares were a little simplistic. Those are also rather boring colors to use. On top of that I think the colored balls or notes actually looked a bit ugly with the white border around it. What I suggest is that you at least add some more color to the background. I think such a small thing could already make it look a whole lot prettier.

Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5. Like I said, work on the graphics and I think you got a pretty good game here.

Very nice work again Matt. You added some interesting new things to the series.

I thought the ability choosing system was pretty good and interesting. Although I didn´t quite like how it seemed to be based on luck what abilities you could choose. Or at least, there were certain abilities that I liked to have early on in the game. But sometimes they appeared very late for some reason (randomness I assume). And sometimes you could only choose between a bunch of very crappy abilities while sometimes you got some really good ones while you only get to pick one of them.

Perhaps it would be nice if there was always a standard set of abilities for every level. Or maybe you could make it so that you could choose some sort of classpath for your character. Like you could perhaps turn the fighter guy into a paladin type warrior and turn the girl into a battle mage in the end if you only choose certain abilities. With that they could get new attacks and stuff. Like the Seiken ability the fighter already has.

I also didn´t like the new summons as much. Scanbot and Slimebunny were good additions for their abilities, but why remove Registeel and Catastrophe? I thought those were the coolest ones of the first game. And it´s kinda lame that the two best summons in this one could also do major damage to your own party. Because of that I didn´t use the summons for attacking at all because it was too dangerous or useless anyway.

Overall 9 out of 10, 5 out of 5. Like I said, good work again Matt. Except for a few small things it´s deffinatly an improvement of the first one. Looking forward to the third. Keep up the excellent work.

I basicly agree with what some people already said earlier: This song was kinda repetive. I mean it indeed started out pretty good and when the piano kicked in it sounded really nice. Then I was expecting for some other instruments to go with the tune, but it just stayed at a piano and a choir. And they were both playing/singing the same tune over and over again pretty much. You might as well cut the song at about 1 minute and turn it into a loop.

Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5.

I don´t really know what to think of this to be honest. Sure it sounds pretty good. But I believe it´s actually not much more than the standard battle theme with some basic metal guitar lines under it. I could be wrong, but it just doesn´t seem all that special to me. The fanfare at the end sounded really good though. Best part of the song in my opinion, even if it was short.

Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5.

I liked how you gave the song a tropical feel to it. It sounds really good for a beach level in the Super Mario series. It had a nice ending as well.

Overall 8 out of 10, 4 out of 5. Keep up the good work!
