We Don't Know What This Game Is Called But It's Just Shapes & Beats

[@Oceanius7871]

Hey avg! Theres actually a really cool story mode where you play through most of the songs! Its very cool and I think you'll like it a lot :D

[@puglife658]

I don’t wanna watch cube get corrupted again ;-; Edit: Too late I guess -_-

[@caseslayer115]

Main issue is they can’t do story mode with each other unless they are in person

[@hdanimatesorsomething]

And a great dlc and I know you’ll love too

1p not 2.

[@strangerranger9352]

Y'all make sure this comment gets a zillion likes so AVG sees it

[@Chaotic_Soul_]

Y’all need to play the story mode, please Especially after watching you play “Close to Me”, there’s loads of story that leads up to it, and you’d get it a lot more if you did the story mode

[@LOLAILO_1112]

you should try the story mode of this game, it can help you a lot with practising for more difficult songs!

[@apersostudios7738]

plus it's just a good story in general.

yea the story mode is amazing

dont even suggest that, they wont last half a second in story mode

Guys I have the sneakiest feeling that your viewers MIGHT want you to play the story mode.

[@quessiant]

You know, I thought so, too. But I’m not so sure…

"MIGHT" might not be the right word

It's kinda triggering since there getting spoilers of the songs and characters but whatever

[@krakentackler6495]

Maybe... but I only see A FEW people saying so...

[@shellbell3356]

I have to say, they have actually done amazing for a first try! They didn't do any tutorials, just straight into the hard stuff - it legitimately took me 15 minutes to complete katana blaster in the playlist mode. Hopefully they notice everyone telling them to do the story mode in the comments XD Actually, imagine Animation vs Just shapes and beats - I could imagine green jammin the whole time.

Tip for multiplayer: - Stay on the right side more so there's more time for the other player to revive you - Remember what piece you are so you are not confused - Don't be stressed, focus on the map and chill - I recommend playing the campaign mode, so you can learn more about the game - Try to not get cornered by the "projectiles" - Some transparent pink objects will not hurt you, they are either a background type of object or just safe objects

[@ironwolf9919]

This is some helpful advice, also make sure to use your dashes wisely and don’t dash into an obstacle.

Campaign mode??

My favorite part of this game is that every level feels unique and different with different gimmicks

[@guacamelon]

Absolutely wonderful you guys are playing this game! I can't wait to see what yall do next! Like the rest of the comments, I suggest you guys play the Story Mode, as it's even more fun and gives context to the bosses you encountered. It seems to only support couch multiplayer though, so yall may set something up to achieve that online.

[@WaterMeloniRoni]

Story Mode will actually give some context behind certain stages, in fact, you'll NEED to, since Close To Me is probably one of the best parts of the story.

[@clarissawilhelm99]

With the silence this game had I’d naturally dubbed it a passed on game. But seeing the recommendations this game had from this channels community, makes me happy to realize that there’s still a community for passed on games like this. Cya😁-.

[@somerandomcube]

It's actually quite a large community (well, it used to be), and it has a lot of great creators in it even if some of the earliest ones had left a long time ago. I've been in the fanbase for 2 years now. It just not very mainstream anymore, it had a bit of popularity when it first came out, and then the fanbase was just kinda in the shadows.

[@AlexAuHoShun]

This was the meta like 1 year ago HOW DID YOU NOT PLAY THIS EARLIER?

[@dmx57961]

Please make more videos of this game! It's one of my all-time favorites, and I'm so happy you're playing it. And from the looks of it, you really enjoy it too! Also, yes, dashing gives you invincibility frames lol.

[@Grefuzzle]

:O it's a protogen! how cool!

[@Z.Placeholder]

You gotta play the story mode of this game!

[@UltraV_]

Fun fact: the first song they did is near the end of the game if I remember correctly.

[@swellsauceFourNumbers]

You do.

[@nonsense618]

Yeah, they played two of the three songs that are right before the final boss XD

[@xray8012]

They played some of the hardest songs first, but they didnt know this because the game doesnt give you the difficulty of the songs when in the mode they played

[@White_Light13]

Thank you so much for playing this game, it's my favorite of all time! You should definitely play Story mode though, it's really fun!

[@TheEnchatedIronaxienAxeth]

Me : *casually scrolls through notifications* Avg : “JSAB!” Me : I haven’t heard that name in a long time.

[@The-EJ-Factor]

The reason some levels are just harder than others is because of the story mode has progression in difficulty.

[@Struggle_Bus]

I think I speak for a lot of us when I say that this game was made for you guys as it really focuses on partnership when your first learning this game. I hope you guys do more videos on this game because it’s so fun and there’s even a song related to undertale. I’m just so glad you guys finally played this game 😄

[@alvarodeltell9495]

This game was awesome im sure youll enjoy it till the end

[@nightking8764]

You guys should really play the story mode so you can understand what's actually going on in the boss fights.

[@HeckinLeBork]

I really hope you guys check out the story mode it really gives light to the bosses (except the triangle)

[@asierx7047]

I love how they started with a midgame level, discovered how to dodge in the third-to-last level and got into the boss with major spoilers

[@Youtice_451]

This game is one of my favorites, glad you guys got to enjoy it. I think you guys would definitely like the story mode.

[@DragonfireSL]

I love this so much! I haven’t seen many multiplayer mode videos of this game so this is cool! But also you really need to check out story mode!!!

[@Lunavellous]

AVG PLAYS JUST SHAPES AND BEATSSSSS! It's so cool watching you play this game. Also, as everyone else in the comments is saying, if you want to play more, try out the story mode!

[@whogavethedogalaptop]

Those levels were endgame levels. I've played it for like 2 years and still struggle on those

[@JustAnotherCommenter]

You know what, you'd do a lot better if you don't always move, so that you can focus on the incoming bullets and objects. Knowing how far you dash is also important to master dashing.

[@sigdorbloody]

OMG I LOVE JSAB THAT I HAD AN ENTIRE PHASE LAST YEAR also fun fact: Close to Me is actually the longest level

[@vaguedestruction]

Alan and DJ, there's a story mode that starts at easy levels and gets harder and is best for new players. You should play that before playlist.

[@boxo-by]

Ayo seven here! If you guys liked this game you’ll totally and absolutely like the story mode!! It even comes with a tutorial so you could learn all the tips and tricks and ease into the different types of obstacles. Also you get to meet square friend and that’s reason enough. Glad u guys enjoy this game hehe :)

Story mode of this game is so good too!!! But~ I recommend you to use Extra Health options If you don't want to HEAT that much.👍

Hello avg! I HIGHLY suggest story mode, since it will be fun, train you for boss levels, and give you a good insight on the lore behind all of this. Can’t wait for next time!

[@alecrouse8928]

Don't forget that you can dash (the speed boost) allows you to not get hit for a tiny bit, so you can avoid (or run into) the red.

[@techno952]

hey you should do the story mode, it is multiplayer also btw soooooo you really dont have any excuse now :)

It's Just Shapes And Beats if you're wondering. It's with the "just".

"it would be fun to make a level in here" You're in luck, it's called Project Arrhythmia, but also; if you both liked this game, then Project Arrhythmia will blow your freaking minds. I suggest you two react to a level called "Space Invaders [four madmen]" no language can describe how creative some of these people are.

Just to name a few of the most popular ones
