So it's one of those "auto-run to the right and avoid obstacles" games, eh? I guess I should finally check out the best free ones to practice right now.

You should try out Canabalt.

The slide makes it instantly bad ass. I LOVE games where you can slide for some reason. Hopefully that's an earlier level and they all aren't just on a loop like that.

Anyway... kind of really reminds me of the Hyper Funk Zone areas of ToeJam & Earl 2.

Looks awesome, Bit.Trip keeps on delivering.

@Simbabbad

I'm curious about that myself, though if the previous games are any iteration they'll probably ensure there's some visual variety in there.

So long as they never ever EVER have dark purple on a black background again.

There are going to be a couple levels filled with fan art so that should be cool.

They just updated the videos. The game looks a lot less repetitive now than in the original footage.

Will buy. They did a good job of building awesome combo systems into the other games which sort of make the games transcend each moment and become a bigger thing... so I'd bet we will see something like that in this one as well.

I still don't have Void. Is it easier than their other games? Because I never managed to complete Trip or Core.

I do not have Core but Void is definitely much, much easier than Beat. In fact, I played the hell out of Beat and still never got to the end, whereas I got to the end of Void in a couple of sittings. Didn't beat it though, the actual end is sort of tough... or at least, confusing enough that it seemed tough...

Void is easier only because you're allowed to screw up once, and can restart from the last checkpoint. But then you lose all your points. So I'd say it's easier to complete, but harder to get a high score. Core is definitely the toughest of the bunch to consistently nail combos.

Beat- medium gameplay, hard levels

Core- hard gameplay, medium levels

Void- easy gameplay, medium levels

I'd say that Void is the easiest and Beat and Core could go either way.
