Songbird Symphony

Adorable birbs, all of the puns, a heartwarming story and nice music. It feels so good when you nail complicated songs by sound rather than looking at the icons. Loved playing this game! Also runs well on Steam Deck without changing settings.

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)

It's times like these I wish I could leave a mixed review.

The visuals are adorable, the music is catchy, and the story is very sweet!
But! The rhythm gameplay.
During progression, you'll gain additional notes you'll need to use in songs if you want a high rank. These are dropped upon you suddenly during said songs, which I wouldn't consider a big deal if you could easily restart a song. But, until you clear it, you'll have to exit to the menu and do a runback if you want to start over.
I felt that, after 4 notes, the difficulty reached a peak that I struggled to keep up with. Normally, I'd say 'skill issue' and just give it another stab, but, for whatever reason, bad rhythm just isn't penalized and good rhythm isn't rewarded. Not even an achievement for clearing all the songs on S-rank, so I couldn't really find a reason to do well beyond just feeling like it.

That said! I got it for a great price on sale, which it's well worth. Maybe someone cracked at rhythm games would like it more than me.

Very cute and wholesome game, played the demo years ago when flash was around, and I finally got to play it. Definitly worth it

Despite being a little buggy at times, this is a really wholesome and cute rhythm game that I love dearly. There was a point in my life where I tried to commit streaming a playthrough of this every month on the 12th, just to show more people the game. That was. A long time ago now, LOL. But.. in any case, this game left a lasting impression on me and left me feeling cozy and seen. I don't think its' story is perfect or whatever, but I don't think it needs to be. A cute little collection-oriented rhythm game that I wish was WAY more popular.

Quite an adorable game <3 The story is pretty simple but not too much, and the rhythm gameplay eases you into using 6 notes quite slowly, before giving you some nice challenges towards the end.

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.
