IGN: Beat Hazard Review

Beat Hazard is a short and sweet ten-dollar investment that is given solid longevity as long as you like the tunes in your music library. There’s a two-player co-op and adversarial mode to go along with online leaderboards, all of which add some nice life to your purchase.

I bought it for $2.49 during the Steam Summer Sale, and even that was overpriced in my opinion. Frankly, I'd probably delete it from my hard drive after playing it for 10 minutes if it was a free download. Since I paid for it though I keep it installed, but have only launched it twice and played it for about 6 songs. The game just never seems to be very influenced by the music. Audiosurf does a much better job of making your music influence the game. This game just doesn't really feel all that immersive to me. Every level played relatively the same even though I listened to 6 completely different songs.

Beat Hazard Now Offers In-Game Rewards To Steam Trading Card Collectors

"Having written about Trading Cards in the past, I’m both pleased and disheartened to see the MMO qualities of this system come to fruition so quickly. I’m interested to see the reaction from the gaming populace at this new DLC method, and whether other indie publishers see fit to lock skins or small gameplay tweaks behind Trading Cards. Only time will tell if this will be a one off oddity or a new horse armor moment for the industry." - Alexander Santa Maria of Geekenstein.com
