The premise:
This is not easy to describe. Essentially the game is a mix of Guitar Hero and Bejeweled, you control a spaceship on a track and your movement is limited to left and right (different space ships have different rulesets and abilites, more on that later).

HERE IS WHERE THE UNIQUE PART comes to play. The track and pieces are based on the MP3 you choose to play (and you can use your own mp3s). The tracks are much like rollercoasters. They speed up and slow down, shoot up shoot down, slow down dive, corkscrew and sometimes loop. It all depends on the song

So every track is different, If you love puzzle games do yourself a favor and pick this up. Its 10 dollars on steam and WILL be coming to PSN and XBOX live soon. Just dont know if it will support MP3 loading.

3 Difficulty settings, Easy Normal Elite.

Online Leader boards + friends list for every song that is played. The game takes MP3 titles and sorts them out to make a friends list. Its awesome trying to beat scores on popular songs.
