Music games are always brilliant, Pulse is no exception.

This game is incredibly fun! I can't wait to see some updates in the future. I have had a few problems with the application so. I'm a big fan of DDR, Elite Beat Agents, and Tap Tap Revenge, so I can usually pick out timing issues easily if there are any. The first problem I have is that Cinder gets off beat throughout the level (the ring gets ahead of the music near the end making it incredibly difficult to play to the beat; I did better when I muted the song and just played the notes based on the location of the ring). Also, there is a series of four notes that need to be played very quickly but they don't line up with the music at all (the music plays a triplet and the game is asking for four input dots). The second problem I had is that I cannot score higher than 99% in Low Tide despite a perfect score (I have played the level through several times and every time I get the "New Score" message, it remains at 99%. Other than those two issues, I have nothing else to note.

Great application, I wait patiently for more!

Exceptional

This is one of the few applications that has brilliantly design, exceptional gameplay, well chosen sound tracks, and excellent execution. Though it may seem at first overly simplistic I am challenged to conceive of another rhythm, music game that is as fun, challenging, or addresses multiple inputs, (movement, rhythm, positioning, timing) as well.

Very very well done.

I would like the second set, of what I hope to be many sets of songs, out quickly.

greaT!

Good design, fun to play, challenging, and great songs! If there were more songs, it would be worth the money, but right now, it's a bit overprised.

Not worth the price. Too simple.

This App is OK, but not for the price they are charging in comparison to other similar Apps. In my opinion, Magic Piano is much better. Pulse has only a few tracks to play, mostly unknown. Buy only if there is no substitute melody App you like.

Not bad...but it's nowhere close to MuBlip

Not a bad game by any means...it looks very polished and the songs are pretty good. Unfortunately, this is not MuBlip (which is a far superior game, in the same genre).

The game play is fun, but there are definitely times when you must hit a note noticeably early in order to get it correct...there are still timing issues..

The lack of options for gameplay should be fixed (ie color)..

the lack of game center integration annoys me, bc I can't compare my scores with others.

also, $5 for only 8 songs? If they include more songs for FREE with future updates, I would most likely give this 4 stars..

At the end of the day, MuBlip still blows this game out of the water, and for almost half of the price...go purchase MuBlip, until pulse finishes this game properly. Also, the name 'Pulse' is already taken by my favorite RSS reader...

Not a bad start

Pulse definitely has potential. I'm having fun, but I feel like the difficulty goes up a little too fast. On one hand, I was pleasantly surprised to see multitouch and more varied rhythms enter the mix, but I felt like I hadn't yet mastered the basics yet. 2-3 more super easy songs would have been nice to give me confidence. I don't mind playing the first few songs again for practice, but getting that practice in with songs that I haven't tried yet would feel much more rewarding.

I hope to see more songs, of all difficulties, in a future update. Pulse is a good time as-is, though.

Beautiful and Entertaining!!

This game is simply awesome. The colors are vibrant and the songs are unique. I could play this game for a long time just trying to beat the songs. There are only a few songs, but I'm sure there will be more in future updates.

The only problem I have is that when I play, I have a hard time figuring out which line the note is on. When you miss enough notes, they turn white and it is even harder to find out when to press the notes since the notes turn the song's set color when it is time to press them.

All in all, I think this game has tons of potential and is well worth buying. (^v^)/

Great but hard

This a great app for people who love to listen to calm music but when double tapping comes up it makes it harder too play

Deliciously simple idea, beautifully executed

This is one of those games which is aesthetically beautiful, easily accessible but quickly becoming devilishly difficult.

I love it!

Fun!

Very fun. However, despite my musical background, I find it to be a little bit difficult. Sometimes it is very hard to figure out what the rhythms are and it is picky about exactly where you touch the notes. Hoping for a lot more songs in the future so it really is worth the $5 and a few updates to make it even more playable. Also, if you like these types of rhythm games, I recommend muBlip. That one is also very fun.
