Zyon_RhythmGame App Reviews

All I want to say is the original songs in here even greater than some arcade music games.This is a game changer.

Zyon is a good rhythm game,as good as cytus .

Gameplay is a little different but unique from your typical rhythm game, but its fresh, fun, and addicting!

I always wanted a good VOCALOID rhythm game. And this game is exactly what I wanted and more. To me, it is way better than "Miku Flick", and unlike that game, this one doesnt even focus on Miku which, to me, is a good thing! (Not to mention the completely different gaming style and all, but Im talking from a VOCALOID games point of view! Sorta?) Now Im not saying I hate Miku or anything, its just that she is basically overrated. There are awesome VOCALOIDs out there that people never heard of because Miku takes all the spotlight. Even in games such as Project DIVA and Project Mirai, its always "Miku, Miku, Miku!" They keep on shoving it in your face and it gets kind of annoying and boring after a while. I love, love, LOVE the Chinese VOCALOIDs and when I heard about this game, I wasted no time in getting it. And I do not regret my choices. So if youre like me, and want to find out about more VOCALOIDs, or just like rhythm games in general, this game is a good one for you. That was longer than I intended it to be..... Oh well! Thats all I really have to say, I guess.

Sound is very good. I like this game.

I think this game has lots of potential to be a game people will remember(which isnt a easy thing to achieve). The music is great, game mechanic is perhaps not completely original, but definitely provided a fresh twist. There are things I think can be improved, but it may be already too late at this point. First is I think you should completely get rid of the fixed rings, the core mechanic of a ring that radiate from center outward, hitting the tap zone at the moment they need to be tapped on is already a great mechanic, those fixed rings on corner and center are only limiting the available screen space for tap zones to be placed, thus forced the tap zone to be small even on iPad. The second possible way to improve is make tap registration more lax, allow longer time for a tap zone to be tapable and not register as miss, also make the tap zone hit box bigger (not the actual tap zone graphic, just the hit box) The reason for both of my suggestion is not to make the game easier, because the grading scale remains unchanged, and if a node is not hit perfectly on time you just wont get a perfect score. The scoring is enough to motivate player to try to perfect it. The reason for these suggestion is to make the game play more continuous and fluid, so its more enjoyable.

This is a fantastic game that I believe has a lot of potential, but theres still a lot that needs to be worked on. The idea is there, but it can be improved a lot. Dont get me wrong, this game has a lot going for it, but Ill start of with the cons. Cons: -Poor grammar -Difficulty "reading" notes -Distracting backgrounds -Lack of song sorting system -No indication to the end of a song -Limited started song choice -Limited theme starter choice I play the game in English, so Im not sure if poor grammar is in the other languages, but it really bothers me. The tutorial wasnt difficult to understand, but there could have been better words choices as well as better punctuation. It just appears very sloppy and unpolished for a game that looks really nice overall. A fluent English speaker could write everything up cleanly and correctly because the idea is there, its just not integrated fluidly. Reading the descriptions of the characters is interesting and the basic understanding is there, but its not enjoyable to struggle over what the words mean. Also, about the tilde (~) when Zing speaks, its very distracting. I get that thats her "style" but it makes her seem annoying and pretentious. Reducing it to a few would portray her happiness without being distracting. The multiple themes are great, but they dont work very well to make the playing experience enjoyable. The backgrounds that play during songs can be distracting, sometimes blending in with the notes. The notes are difficult to predict and read when theyre close to each other on the same line. The orange circle that pulsates is the brightest color on the screen and takes away from the notes. In pure mode, the special notes are hard to predict and blend into the background. Theres no song sorting system so its difficult to find the song you like to play. Sorting by name, difficulty, rank achieved etc. can resolve this problem. When a song is finished, theres too much of a delay between the score screen popping up and the song playing. I keep thinking there should be more to follow but its really the end of the song. There are very limited choices of songs and themes for paying $2. Theres a decent selection of songs, but the difficulties of levels are either too easy or too difficult so I personally cant gradually improve. Id have to attempt to play harder songs right away which I dont particularly enjoy. There are also a lot of themes that are locked which is a shame. You can purchase more themes and songs in game, but I dont think its worth it where the game is at right now. Pros: -Lovely art -Pretty visuals overall -Great/unique concept -Unique song selection The game design itself is very clean and futuristic. It has a sleek design and thats always a selling point. The concept of the game is unique. Having two modes helps with that, but incorporating the special notes in pure mode can be done a lot smoother. Otherwise the play-style is something if never encountered in a rhythm game. This may have vocaloid songs, but theyre not the standard Miku, Len, Kaito etc... These songs are sung by Chinese vocaloids as well as some other. If you wanna listen to something different, theres a lot of good songs to be introduced to. Conclusion: This game has a lot of potential, but theres a lot that can be done with it. I suggest waiting a bit for a few more updates because its not worth the money at the moment. Though there are a lot of great songs and the play style is fun, theres still a lot of things that are wonky in it. I cant wait to see this game at its peak, because Im sure this isnt the final product yet.
