You stand in front of a big widescreen TV turned vertical. A single pulsing icon moves along a twisting, winding path (a coaster, you could say), while passing symbols for the notes you need to hit. The icon changes speeds and makes sudden turns, while the note symbols fly in from the sides and corners of the screen just to meet the path at the last second. Crazy colorful backgrounds are behind all this. It sounds like it's impossible to follow, but when I'm playing a song within my skill range and in the groove, it joins together so well and creates this amazing atmosphere. The controls are two knobs, each with a big button on top. You can tap or mash or hold the buttons, and you can push and wiggle the knobs, all depending on the symbols that fly by. Each song also has hidden notes, where you can hit a button at an empty point and still get points. The wild display of gameplay plus these hidden notes really encourages playing songs over again to get to know them well. The music doesn't have as broad of styles as say, Pop'n Music. There are a few different categories though. Vocaloid and Touhou music are present, which I know some people love, but I'm not that big on. There's a bunch of original creations by Taito musicians and rhythm game composing mainstays, which I do love. There's also a bunch of video game music. Stuff like Undertale and BlazBlue appear on the song list. There's also a lot of Taito music, of course. They're certainly not the most well-known assortment of games and songs, but I feel this is uniquely appealing to me. You may have noticed in my G-Darius writeup, a game by Taito, I stated that it was my favorite game soundtrack. There is a bunch of Darius music in Groove Coaster, including G-Darius. Daddy Mulk from the Ninja Warriors makes an appearance. Bubble Bobble, Space Invaders, and more classic games are represented, along with updated versions like Arkanoid DS, Dariusburst, and Space Invaders Extreme. Taito game music in general is kind of quirky, and I love it, and this category of music hits just the right spot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooBlOpKE6Bc --- ONLY FIVE CAN LADDER.
