I've played all there is to play in sound shapes aside from a couple tracks, and the beat school when you beat everything. But this game is just really in an odd place for me, I'll play a couple tracks, and really start feeling it, knowing what the game set out to do, and achieving that goal flawlessly. Then time will pass, I will pick it up again, and just not like anything that I'm playing, community or single player, it's so off and on for me, it's really a weird thing. I really like the platforming, but wish there was more to just collecting notes, maybe hidden challenge rooms ala Rayman origins, something. What's there is great, it just needs way more complexity for me to play it more than an hour and get where it's going musically and gameplay wise. At the end, it's a super simple, but extremely polished platformer, that has less to do with music complexity than I'd like. What are your guy's thoughts? Did Alex's review line up to your opinions?
Another thing, I will listen to music after I'm done playing the game, and just wish I could make something that elaborate in game, and that's just not the case, there is only one bar for you to work with at a time, that's something I really wish they would address before shipping. Maybe sound shapes 2 will be more LittleBigPlanet than Mutant blobs attack. I can only hope anyway.
