The past level where you burn the Polaroids is my favourite by far, the sounds of the camera and the lighter flicking open and closed are so satisfying
@@solarprogeny6736 they do on me though, I sleep like a log whenever I take it and get proper sleep instead of the annoying light sleep I’ve been having for awhile
My main gripe with Melatonin was the sound cues or sometimes feels like lack their of, as i've only played the Rhythm Heaven series before this game and tried going into it with an open mind but the first area was not a great first impression. The call and respond mini game (shopping) was alright, I like that the hard versions are like remixed versions of the original songs, but by the time I got to the "dream about followers" minigame it just hit me hard how this start was unenjoyable and that with my only source of comparison being RH I was shocked that the remix required getting 2 stars in each level which while firstly only reminding me of shitty mobile games, also infuriated me because of how unintuitive the "dream of followers" minigame felt and nearly made me refuse to go further into the game. The first remix wasn't that enjoyable either as it imo sounded like garbage and having to slog through it just made me really feel uninvested in what was to come but to try giving it a good try I kept going and the second area was fun to me in mini games, with better sound cues to me, then the remix was enjoyable and sounded fine. and I've only gotten to the dream about time minigame but that was honestly the most RH feeling minigame so far and I loved it just had janky timing it felt like to get used to was all (in a similar vain to some might have issues with monkey watch first time playing Fever) but seeing this comment and the few replies did make me think about this and I do agree Melatonin feels like a game meant to be watched and listened to rather than actually played. It feels like it has bad sound cues and despite having 'accessibility' options to give people a visual cue on any level I feel like if your rhythm game has to rely on visual cues you failed at making a rhythm game. so for me atleast when compared to RH I haven't been having the most enjoyable time playing Melatonin but I wouldn't make the generalization of Rhythm Games being more fun to watch than play. (cause I assume games like Rock band, and guitar hero count? if so they're fun to play, and some rhythm games like taiko seems fun to play but I never have played)
I love it, got it a few days ago and am trying for 3 stars on all the levels. It definitely takes some work though, the practice mode is very helpful if you're willing to run through it a few times rather than just once. I think I did practice mode 3-4 times on most levels, to make sure I was comfortable with the timing on all the cues.
This game seems pretty good! My one issue is that some of the games seem to rely of visual cues a bit. Which is something rhythm heaven avoided I think
Same here! I thought about that letter a blind kid had sent to Nintendo thanking them for making a game he was able to play and complete all on his own, and it’s because Rhythm Heaven has clear audio cues as well as fun visual ones.
I feel like a few of the biggest offenders (that I've gotten up to so far) is the money, work and rocket ones. Audio cues in money and work are too similar for me to differentiate and they became more of a memory game. The rocket one on the other hand I think is more the music not helping with the cues. I remember getting very frustrated trying to keep time in my head because the music wasn't helping. For my first rhythm game, I loved it 7/10
I was intrigued and bought this game, but it didn't meet my expectations for a rhythm game. My major gripe has to be levels that either focus on visual cues or audio cues. It's nice for a rhythm game to focus only on one as your reaction time will differ greatly. Especially during Megamixes where you're forced to switch between audio and visual cues. My other gripe is some levels have an audio cue that gets masked by the music or audio cues not being distinct enough from each other requiring you to look at the screen. This game would potentially be better if it focused on the auditory cues and dropped visual cues as the levels that require only auditory cues seem to be better polished and timed better.
Yeah I have kind of mixed feelings about the audio and visual cues. I don't really have a preference for one over the other in my rhythm games, and in isolation I think the levels are okay, but the way the levels are organized makes for some really confusing transitions in the remixes (chapter 4 is the worst in this regard i think). I think I personally like more subtle audio cues in rhythm games (I really don't like the new audio cues they added to 4-3N and 3-1N in Rhythm Doctor because I find it has the reverse problem of sticking out and being kind of jarring against the music). Melatonin does kind of toe the line on being too subtle though, especially in some of the directional stages.
@@solarprogeny6736 could be referring to the banking minigame? The audio cues in that one are impossible to distinguish without headphones (and are still a bit difficult to hear over the music).
@@rammrott483 The loud beep indicates that you need to hit the button again one beat after it plays. It always happens on the half beat, so if you hear it, that means that you're going to have to hit it twice on the next swing.
It relies a BIT too much on visual cues for me, using a metronome is helpful (in the settings). I personally cannot focus without the little circle telling me when to click because I get distracted
@@xylophone_888The Polaroid one is probably one of the better ones to do without visuals. It has a click for each different size of Polaroid and they’re pretty easy to tell apart. The first level, though? Yikes. Some of these just look like predicting patterns, which… Is not how it’s supposed to go.
Okay, good I'm not the only one who find that annoying and untrue to the Rhythm Heaven series lol I absolutely love the aesthetic of the game and the genre, but imo, these games should be something a blind person can play with visual cues built into the music. The polaroid one is probably one of the best ones with the differing sounds based on how long you're supposed to hold the beat
as an avid rhythm heaven fan, i dont think this would do it for me unfortunately. it just makes me wish there was a new rhythm heaven😭😭 i do love the visuals though the colors are very pretty
honnestly, slow rhythm game like rhythm heaven, rhythm doctor and this one are the best, their visuals are beautifull, the gameplay is genius and let you in a trance with the flow of the music
@@samuelfernandesoliveira Well your brother doesn’t apply, The “we”, in “we all know” refers to those of us who have been in the presence of this knowledge, and seen the above comment after that. Your brother has not, and has not. Something something- lying
Pretty cool, seems to have the same satisfying gameplay with the cues feeling part of the song, and the music is nice. Just not very into the visuals, specifically the colour palette, the pastel isn't bad, but everything being about the same bright pink and purple feels samey really fast. Besides the 'modern' themes (phone hopping, work, credit card, swipe, minigames) making it feel too dependent on "this is so relatable, ain't it? how do you do fellow millennials"
The color palette is definitely a bit same-y but i think it doesn't bother me because the game is pretty short so it doesn't have long enough to overstay its welcome. If the game were like 100 minigames long id definitely get really tired of it
I gotta say, the whole “so relatable millennial” thing is why the Polaroid burning one is my favorite. It’s gloomier and actually has character implications and action, as compared to the rest.
I mean, you say fellow millennials but these are things that... most people do. Really only the phone hopping one could hit into that but even then you'd be hard pressed to find someone who doesn't use any social media in our current era.
funny, work was honestly one of my least favorites, not because i dislike the song or gameplay, but because im so bad at it and it makes me upset every time my favorite is the one about the past or the one about stress
I wanna play this game, because I started straight up mirroring the actions myself. Also, I need melatonin irl as well. It's 5 in the morning I need to sleep
I just started playing it and liked Chapter 2 but I became really frustrated in both Chapter 3&4 since I can't get the rhythm right without making my other hand a metronome lmao
Make good use of practice mode... On particularly difficult levels I probably went through practice mode 5 or 6 times. Also try tapping your foot to the beat, that helped me keep time for most of the game. The megamix at the end is very fun if you're willing to put in a little work to get through the rest of the game!
@@fakeemail6815 yeah one of the great things about the game is they have a good amount of accessibility settings! At least compared to other games. They definitely make the game easier and less frustrating, good for people not used to rhythm games or for people that have physical/mental disabilities that would affect playing the game normally.
Dream about the past almost has an eerie vibe to it and I love it, burning Polaroids with a lighter. Reminds me of someone trying to burn memories or evidence of something. Perfect vibe
maybe its just cuz i haven't played but it seems like there are not many sound cues, or if there are they are insufficient at distinguishing between certain responses
They definitely don't feel quite as clear as Rhythm Heaven's but you could definitely perfect these games with nothing but audio cues I believe (except that coin one, maybe it's cuz I'm not wearing headphones but there's seemingly nothing to indicate the difference between coins on the left and coins on the right), the visual aspect definitely helps a lot though which is where this game differs from rhyhthm heaven. A lot of the games in RH have visuals that actually serve to distract more than help, which makes the player rely a lot more on the audio cues and as such the audio cues need to be really clear so as to not seem unfair.
The coin one, the stress one, and the final space shooting one i dont think can be done completely blind (basically the multi button games). The single button games are pretty doable with audio cues, although some of them are way more subtle than others. Like work actually has very good audio cues, but the subtlety and the way it plays into the song is what makes it great imo
I only played this game up until the first section. I was hoping I could do what I did with Rhythm Heaven and go based on audio cues, but some of the cues sounded so alike to another I had to turn on the visual aid. The followers section messed me up the most.
@@accelplaysgamesbad6382 the phone game is easy once you know what to look for. Not only is there sound cues, there ARE visual cues too like when you do a high jump the phone you land one with vibrate and the screen with turn blue exactly 1 beat before you land on the 2nd beat. All the games have a 4 beat rhythm to them so it'll be 1. .(you'll be just jumping off one phone to the other) 2(jumped off and in the air). .3(you're starting to come down and the phone you land on will vibrate and screen turns blue). .4 (lands on the phone). .1 (jump off). This will be a bit longer on the hard mode. The 3 phone jump will also vibrate the 3 phones with blue screen 1 beat before you have to jump on them. Then it's a faster movement in the same beat time beat 1 it cues you in then beat 2 you jump twice fast while in beat 3 then on the 4th beat you landed on the 3rd phone before jumping off on beat 1.
Funny enough followers is my favorite I zone out on it and ended up with my first 3 stars but I use the audio assist for every game and visual assist for the ones I have trouble with.
I agree. The followers is terrible. I had to use the metronome for most of the game because I was too focused to actively keep the beat for some of the levels. The followers one you kinda just have to guess 🤷♀️
I feel like i should leave a comment, i have been using this video in place of melatonin for the past 4 months now. Thank you for this great video I plan to continue using this
I think one of the things about rhythm heaven that makes it such a beloved and nostalgic series is the fact that the music is good and the visuals are entertaining. This feels game like a college project.
i really enjoy the "dream about the past" level, it makes me think of finally moving on, this could be from a friend, relationship or whatever. Like the persons finally ready to move on. but also it could be seen as a relationship or friendship ending but the music vibe make it more of like 'moving on' thing for me. the burning of the Polaroids adds onto this of finally having the strength to let go
Seeing the Polaroid burning level is what got me hooked on this game (still haven't gotten it because I'm trying to save up for a costume and dad wants me to buy these games with my own money) and it just.. it's so amazing- I could play the Polaroid level forever if I had the game
Spoiler for the owl house!!!!! @@minor-primus it mean an episode of the owl house where amity's burning willow's memories and luz and amity resthor willow's memories :)
@@jojodias2823 never watched The Owl House before but thanks for pointing it out kinda confused as to why people are talking about the reference but yeah I understand it now.
Just randomly got recommended this and it convinced me to pull the trigger and finally buy this game. About to play it now hope I have as much fun as you!
I absolutely adore this game! My favorites to play are tech, work, money (it's so satisfying), time, past (even tho i'm bad at it), stress, and all the mashups, working on getting all perfects and I'm convinced I'll never get the followers one, lol
I'm gonna be the odd one and say I actually really liked this game! It's cute and a lot more chill, which I liked since Rhythm Heaven would stress me out so much. I did also like how there were assistance options if you were struggling, as a person that struggled A LOT in Heaven as I couldn't progress bc I was struggling so much. I will agree it relies a little too much on visual cues; but I liked the songs, the art was cute, the buttons were very responsive (as in no delay), and I could actually progress! If you're like me and Heaven stresses you out too much, worth a buy! I say 4.1/5 :)
I just love how in the dream about time, the clockes are sometiems accelerated like particles in a particle accelerator before flying straight at the bat
I bought the game and I love it! It's like a more challenging version of Rhythm Heaven while still having its own identity! That said, it REALLY needs to make its audio cues louder. Sometimes your input blocks it out, meaning you can't just lower the music. That said, I love how it has options like lowering music to make sound effects louder and how it tells when you're early, perfect, or late!
My main gripe is that there doesn’t seem to be enough energy put into the effort (of course, it is supposed to be lofi) Rhythm heaven features songs and minigames of a lot of varieties. This game features one.
Bro the last part is so nostalgic man it makes me feel at home like a just me at home watching the stars at night with a cold breeze going across my hair and body 😊
idk something about this 'style' of calm lofi music is really off-putting(causes me more anxiety if im being honest)... maybe it's the over reliance on everyday object as sounds or the fact that th beat 9s just ... idk im not a fan of the usic in this game, visuals a beautiful though
I love rhythm games a lot, and this seems more like a game that beginners would try out to get into the game. It relies a lot on visual cues, so I use this a lot for practicing while having eyes closed. Really great game, and has a beautiful art style :)
It's supposed to be 1 beat after you hear the phone vibrate, but the visuals are super disorienting during that segment. It's just not a good minigame idk

This will be a bit longer on the hard mode. The 3 phone jump will also vibrate the 3 phones with blue screen 1 beat before you have to jump on them. Then it's a faster movement in the same beat time beat 1 it cues you in then beat 2 you jump twice fast while in beat 3 then on the 4th beat you landed on the 3rd phone before jumping off on beat 1.
Funny enough followers is my favorite I zone out on it and ended up with my first 3 stars but I use the audio assist for every game and visual assist for the ones I have trouble with.
I agree. The followers is terrible. I had to use the metronome for most of the game because I was too focused to actively keep the beat for some of the levels.
The followers one you kinda just have to guess 🤷♀️
Dream of the past is the most Rhythm Heaven of the minigames from the look of it because it has both strong visual *and* audio cues.
"I finnaly understand all those equations!"
my brain the following minute: 5:23
There needs to be more rhythm heaven like games
I feel like i should leave a comment, i have been using this video in place of melatonin for the past 4 months now. Thank you for this great video I plan to continue using this
5:20 the part who all we were waiting for
5:20 amity blight
Yea xD
3:28 - GBA SPACEBALL REFERENCE?!
YOOOOO I CAN'T UNSEE IT
Past is my favorite one by far with work coming in at second but nothing can beat the polaroid click and lighter flick
This is by far the most creative and chillest rhythm game
lmao
dream about the past gotta be my favorite,the sound of the lighter and photo is so good
5:20 Amity's favorite game
I think one of the things about rhythm heaven that makes it such a beloved and nostalgic series is the fact that the music is good and the visuals are entertaining.
This feels game like a college project.
i really enjoy the "dream about the past" level, it makes me think of finally moving on, this could be from a friend, relationship or whatever. Like the persons finally ready to move on. but also it could be seen as a relationship or friendship ending but the music vibe make it more of like 'moving on' thing for me. the burning of the Polaroids adds onto this of finally having the strength to let go
Seeing the Polaroid burning level is what got me hooked on this game (still haven't gotten it because I'm trying to save up for a costume and dad wants me to buy these games with my own money) and it just.. it's so amazing- I could play the Polaroid level forever if I had the game
not a bad game at all! its just for a sleepy game, you gotta keep your eyes open for them visual cues. vibing hard with it tho :)
I remember watching an entire longplay of this game while pullinf an all nighter. I think i fell asleep after finishing but i loved it.
i’d say work is the most fun lowkey.
in 5:18 amity burning willow's memories in the owl house
i like the time level because the sounds of the bat and knee give immersion of baseball for some reason
Edit: ty for 10 likes guys :D
Oh... I'm a fan of rhythm heaven games. Might try this one out after my sleep
5:19 Amity burning Williows memories
I don't get the reference can you tell me what that means though?
Spoiler for the owl house!!!!! @@minor-primus it mean an episode of the owl house where amity's burning willow's memories and luz and amity resthor willow's memories :)
@@jojodias2823 never watched The Owl House before but thanks for pointing it out
kinda confused as to why people are talking about the reference but yeah I understand it now.
Just randomly got recommended this and it convinced me to pull the trigger and finally buy this game. About to play it now hope I have as much fun as you!
Dream about the past is somehow so sleepy- like so chill, it must be a pain to play, but seeing and hearing it feels like I'm on a cloud in my pajamas
I really like the art style for this, gives me bee and puppycat vibes
I absolutely adore this game! My favorites to play are tech, work, money (it's so satisfying), time, past (even tho i'm bad at it), stress, and all the mashups, working on getting all perfects and I'm convinced I'll never get the followers one, lol
I love how the money in the rain sounds, but I also felt it was the most difficult while playing the game haha
I'm gonna be the odd one and say I actually really liked this game! It's cute and a lot more chill, which I liked since Rhythm Heaven would stress me out so much. I did also like how there were assistance options if you were struggling, as a person that struggled A LOT in Heaven as I couldn't progress bc I was struggling so much. I will agree it relies a little too much on visual cues; but I liked the songs, the art was cute, the buttons were very responsive (as in no delay), and I could actually progress! If you're like me and Heaven stresses you out too much, worth a buy! I say 4.1/5 :)
the dream bout work hits different
5:23 amity:

5:20 Photographer: I've got photos proving the government is corrupted
The government:
I have respect for the time level, I'm so terrible at it I always get flustered especially on hard mode
Why are memories so flammable??
dream about the past is a banger fr
4:03 - Speed clock need to count till 7
Me, as Rhythm Doctor player: Eh
i swear i was counting "yi er san su wu liu qi" in my head like the damn rd tutorials
@@nohintshere Ah yes
一二三四五六七
Though it would be even funnier if the nurse start to say "Rea Dy Get Set Go"
Who’s getting “Amity burning memory photos of Willow vibes”?
Me
I just love how in the dream about time, the clockes are sometiems accelerated like particles in a particle accelerator before flying straight at the bat
I remember seeing this game on demo on steam and I fell in love with it lol
i love it when silent youtubers have personality, even behind the screen
this is just vibe
i think for this game to be amazing the sounds just need to be accurate enough so you can beat this game perfect with eyes closed
i really love the clock one “time” the way it sounds and plays are really cool
I bought the game and I love it! It's like a more challenging version of Rhythm Heaven while still having its own identity! That said, it REALLY needs to make its audio cues louder. Sometimes your input blocks it out, meaning you can't just lower the music. That said, I love how it has options like lowering music to make sound effects louder and how it tells when you're early, perfect, or late!
5:19 POV: You're Amity Blight
LMAO
Tysm for introducing me to my favorite rhythm game 😭
My main gripe is that there doesn’t seem to be enough energy put into the effort (of course, it is supposed to be lofi)
Rhythm heaven features songs and minigames of a lot of varieties. This game features one.
I love this game
The polaroids become pinker when the shots are taken
I'm not sure I like the implications of the first level at all.
Yeah. It just seems so confusing and it’s like “ How am I going to know what the entire rhythm is first try? “.
@Autistic_Emperor I agree. But, I also think the messaging not the best.
5:19 owl house fans watching this and remembering understanding willow
the first one sounds amazing tho
Rhythm Heaven: Lo-fi edition
5:19 nadie amity:
Bro the last part is so nostalgic man it makes me feel at home like a just me at home watching the stars at night with a cold breeze going across my hair and body 😊
how is this actually so chill
So this is pretty much Industrial Revolution and it's consequences: The Rhythm game
SOOOO SATISFYING we need a real long one to sleep too
idk something about this 'style' of calm lofi music is really off-putting(causes me more anxiety if im being honest)... maybe it's the over reliance on everyday object as sounds or the fact that th beat 9s just ... idk im not a fan of the usic in this game, visuals a beautiful though
I love rhythm games a lot, and this seems more like a game that beginners would try out to get into the game. It relies a lot on visual cues, so I use this a lot for practicing while having eyes closed. Really great game, and has a beautiful art style :)
a dream about time is just spaceball with more steps
Bro im lovin the pastel vibe
Owl house reference for a dream about the past?
amity
"Dream About Time" has the fattest bass I've heard in a while, very unique.
For a like 15 dollar game it was great, cute fun a lot of the songs I really liked
Dream about the past = Amity Simulator
How are you supposed to know when to press? It feels a bit random, the bigger jumps.
It's supposed to be 1 beat after you hear the phone vibrate, but the visuals are super disorienting during that segment. It's just not a good minigame idk
@@accelplaysgamesbad6382 thanks for explaining
I agree! The dream about followers is so stupidly hard for me, I can never get the timings right
I agree, Work is the best level
pastel colors always made me sleepy so i kept sleeping when i played the game
