It's no Audiosurf, but it did okay at reacting to the music. I didn't notice much matching of the beat, but it did quicken and change colours when the song's pace changed...

*Online leaderboards for every individual song

That's a nice touch.

How could they possibly go wrong with a name like that?

Back in the 60's they had a Massively Multiplayer Offline game called Shdrugsup...
"...and in stonks, Fizzy Squeezy Stocklebocks leaped over Droopy Whoopy Bondfluffs, hitting 300-gigglebits to their 150-snorebucks. Meanwhile, in Whimsyland's market, the pancakes reached parity with pogo sticks."

This game apparently needs some fine print:

"Note: Works best with Techno."
Watched the trailer and thought the same thing. They showed a little classical, but was surprised they didn't show any rock or something. Game looks interesting though.

I was about to say, based on the line
"It is a shooter where the enemy bullet patterns are generated by any mp3 chosen from your music collection."
Drum and Bass must be a real bitch.

It's a shame these type of games never support my format of choice (FLAC+cue sheet).
