I have completed the game on both Switch and PC, and I absolutely love it. Controller can be a bit tough at times, but the game is the perfect mix of chill and challenging. I cant recommend this game enough.
My only complaint would be that in some of the songs the notes overlap quite a bit with the background music and it sounds annoying, and the hold notes are a bit too sharp and high pitched, but the music and sound design is amazing, as well as the animations.
Overall a nice story about a little bird finding where he truly belongs :)
(please make a sequel, maybe with older Birb or a whole new location)

My only qualm quite literally is not being able to map your own buttons I kept forgetting that my controller (Nintendo style) is incorrect and pressing the wrong X, Y etc however it's pretty generous. There's a lot of different styles of rhythm games in this and it gets a bit disorienting with the buttons being take them as they are. I'd suggest if you're playing on PC maybe use a keyboard if not an Xbox style controller.
That being said I think this is an adorable game that's a great rhythm game. I really loved the art style and charm of it highly recommend. It goes on sale for way too cheap often. A great, short time.

Wonderful experience, it feels like the type of game you'd play in your childhood and have fond memories of.
It's a combination of two genres I adore, rhythm and metroidvania. Although, it had more rhythm than the latter, it's not like an actual full fledged metroidvania in my opinion.
The only gripe I really have with the game is that it does have missable achievements, I had to replay the entire game just to get that last achievement but I suppose you can brush that off since not everyone cares about completionist stuff.

Awesome game, awesome designs and awesome music! Btw hi Mr Tan Kang Soon I dont know if you read steam reviews but I was one of your students :D Loved playing the demo on the first day of class and I loved the overall game too. In my opinion the game is very underrated and definitely needs more attention. Anyways, thanks for an experience i'll never forget, the feeling of jamming to Uncle Pea's in the intro is very memorable

A story about a birb traveling across the world in an attempt to find where he belongs in life that has more that it needed. The music is nice and the art style is colorful. It is enjoyable and charming to explore the world and the story is good for what it is. It's not exactly impressive but its decent enough for what it has, if maybe a bit overpriced.

wholesome game with unique little puzzles and an interesting rhythm game mechanic. the latter sadly gets cluttered too quickly and it can be hard to understand what's happening.

The game is suprisingly challenging despite the appearance. The game gives mild exploration, but I didn't find everything on the first try which is a good sign.
