TITLE: Just Shapes & Beats
DEVELOPER: Berzerk Studio
PLATFORM: PC
Just Shapes & Beats is an action rhythm video game developed and published by Canadian indie team Berzerk Studio. It was released on May 31, 2018 for Windows and Nintendo Switch, February 24, 2019 for macOS and Linux, May 10, 2019 for PlayStation 4 in the US, and May 30, 2019 for PlayStation 4 in Europe, Russia and Australia. In the game, players move to the beat of background music as a colorful shape that survives by dodging pink shapes.
Up to four players each control one small shape, surviving attacks simply by dodging against a variety of attacks, such as huge beams, bouncing hills, snake-like spirals, and pulsating shapes. These attacks appear, move, and attack in rhythm to the music, with difficulty increasing the further players progress.
The rhythm visually manifests on-screen as all manner of objects, of different patterns and sizes, that must be dodged until the track ends. Getting struck by one of these attacks causes the player to lose part of their shape. If the shape breaks entirely, the game rewinds to the previous checkpoint. Three breaks results in a Game Over screen that states "It's Over". Tapping Space, A, X, etc. multiple times causes the player's shape, a cyan square, to fix itself and changes the screen's text to read "It's NOT over", allowing the player to continue from the beginning of the level. Hardcore mode was added in 2019 which updates all levels with a second version.
Just Shapes & Beats offers multiple modes that feature variations on the basic gameplay, such as party mode, playlist, and challenge run.
