Rhythm Game Newbie Plays ADOFAI's Hardest Songs

[@Aliensrock]

A lot of work went into making this video (3 hours gaming, 5 hours non-gaming work, plus Dan's 8 hours editing), so I'm not letting one copyrighted song demonetize the whole thing. You can watch world 11 and Heracles here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ome3pmulh9aefpY Enjoy!

[@tiaanvanrensburg1032]

I’m sure you already know this but there are some much harder levels you can access by typing “quree” on the level select. There are other codes you can type but they don’t really add anything gameplay wise, my favourite is “kaboom”

it's cool watching this game as a drummer. it teaches how to feel some pretty complex rhythms without it seeming overwhelming. props to them

[@brennanruiz1803]

It really is just “jazz and prog rhythms: the game”, huh?

[@doomse150]

I so badly want to rig this up to a drumpad, because doing that on a keyboard sounds like absolute pain (for either me or the keyboard)

[@luigifan4585]

@@doomse150 it plays fine on keyboard, it just came off as painful here because Tyler was both streaming and recording when he played, which messed with the game input offset

[@scotty3739]

neo cosmos did a very good job of that. T1, T2, and T4 show off some very neat rhythms that aren't really shown much else in the game.

[@tempestissimo]

the developers’ other game, rhythm doctor, also does a really nice job on that! its really cool how they managed to do it two times

[@tiaanvanrensburg1032]

Some general tips: use two keys for sharp bends, keep calibrating because you might get better at timing, check out the bottom of the start screen to change colours, above the start for the Xtra island, go back to the first 6 levels since you should be able to do the speed trials now, and never underestimate how hard this game can get because it can always get more difficult

[@luigifan4585]

Calibration won't help with Tyler when both streaming _and_ recording is introducing variable amounts of input delay

[@tiaanvanrensburg1032]

@@luigifan4585 that is true, but it helps to keep it as accurate as can be

[@zvxcvxcz]

@@luigifan4585 Few cores? Weak machine? He watches the real time, not the stream or recording, so I don't see why he should have significantly variable input delay from doing those unless his machine is getting taxed really hard. And even then there are ways... can set process priority so the game is #1 (prefer dropping some frames as recording and streaming are forced to wait on game code execution). Depending on the recording codec much of it can be offset to GPU (NEVC). Etc.... Use a real-time kernel...

[@luigifan4585]

@@zvxcvxcz It's just personal speculation, really. Just based off the few times I was listening to Tyler tap his spacebar at a consistent pace and was getting random early or lates despite of the consistency

I definitely wanna see the dlc levels. Also, if it’s not too much trouble, I think it would be cool to see the full run of a section on the attempt that clears it. That way we can see/hear what the whole section is like before you move on to the next. Either way is cool though, I love your content.

There is also an extra world at the top of the main menu and a extra world next to world 6 that unlocks after you complete the speed trials for worlds 1-6.

[@zarnox3071]

"Crypt of the NecroDancer" and/or "Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer featuring The Legend of Zelda" could be considered puzzles in a sense due to their mostly deterministic enemy movement patterns, and Cadence of Hyrule even has a dedicated puzzle mode which is an expanded version of the Temple of Brainstorms dungeon. If you play in no beat mode, you can even take as long as you want to consider what to do on each turn.

[@auroraPalace_]

definitely agreed, would love to see tyler puzzle out the enemies and bosses of Necrodancer!

[@tokabe3826]

Would absolutely love to see DLC levels, it's so cool seeing the guy I normally watch and respect for his ability with puzzles play rhythm games, and ADOFAI is easily one of the hardest/most rhythm based.

Pretty great series, thanks :) also thanks for world 11, great idea, first time I see idea like it! I think it will be interesting to see you reacting on some the hardest songs, which are on insane speed and etc, which people train for monthes to complete, I would not suggest you to train month to complete them, but reaction of someone who actually played it may be interested, about DLC, I think if there is smth you like we will like it too, it is always enjoyable to watch someone enjoying the game P.S. I like that contrast with ultra serios face when he concentrated on the song and when he remembered that he need to smile when starting to talk xd, it was especially good contrast on world 11

You should try a game called Rhythm Doctor, if you thought ADOFAI was the hardest... be prepared to hit the spacebar a LOT.

[@Yotanido]

Been checking twitch every day to see if there's a new ADOFAI VOD :P Guess this works too. Definitely want to see you play the DLC - it's absolutely amazing. If you want a challenge, there's a bunch of bonus levels as well. You can find them all around the start of the level select. But the DLC is something else entirely. It's so good.

[@oinkymomo]

there are the 5 dlc levels, of which 4 have ex versions, but there are also about 15-20 other bonus levels which get a lot harder than the main 12 as well. also speed trials, where you have to do the levels at anywhere from 1.1x to 1.5x speed, without checkpoints (except for some of the longest and checkpoint-heaviest dlc levels, which you just have to beat without checkpoints)

[@KitsuneZeta]

As a few others have pointed out, there are still more songs outside of the DLC and Workshop (some of which are even harder than these backside songs). Here's where to find them: At the same time that the backside songs (world 7-12) were unlocked, two gems should've been added around the starting area. The lower one takes you to an area where you can change the color of your two orbs (a few additional options can be unlocked), while the one up top takes you to Xtra Island, which has 6 songs on it of varying difficulty (including two collab songs). World "B" appears to the right of World 6 upon completing the Speed Trial goals (Red Gate - no checkpoints) for World 1-6 (1.5x on 1-5, 1.1x on 6). Completing World B will unlock Crown Island (which contains two of the hardest songs in the base game) No separate unlock exists for completing world 7-12's Speed Trial goals, but completing the speed trials for the first two songs of Muse Dash Island will unlock a third song (which is the third candidate for hardest non-DLC song in the game). Of note: Clearing the two Crown Island songs and completing the initial two Speed Trials on Muse Dash Island are NOT required for 100% achievements. The dev considered that too difficult.

[@luigifan4585]

EMOMO is definitely the hardest level out of all of them, mostly because the Challenge levels aren't too high of a BPM to keep up with the speed trial minimum speed
