I'm terrible at rhythm games but I enjoy them a lot and I've played most of the notable entires in the genre. In some games beatmaps almost feel arbitrary but in Rhythm Sprout it feels like the devs took a bitmaps-first approach which worked out really well. I wish there were more easy levels though, I struggled to keep up in the second half of the game. There's begginner mode but it's way too easy. The lo-fi levels in the beginning are probably my favourite ones. The only big negative is narrative design. The writing is just awful, I'm really glad cutscenes are skippable because I wouldn't have finished the game othewise.
I consider my English to be decent. An average game is 99% understandable to me. I've recently played Eliza by Zachtronics, missed a few words here and there, but, again, it was 99% understandable. However, a slightly more sophisticated literature is beyond my capabilities. Sunless Skies falls into that category. I could follow the story, but I'd miss half the game's charm. All the atmosphere, built through descriptive words, would be lost for me. The game is in desperative need of localizition. More than any other narrative-driven game. So, I guess that's a no for me. Also, weird perfomance? The game didn't feel smooth, as if the framerate constantly dipped below 60, even though it didn't.
