Rhythm Heaven: Difference between revisions

 

The game was meant to be played by holding the Nintendo DS sideways. Left-handers have an option to change the position of the vwasual gameplay to allow easier playing. The game primarily uses the touch screen.

The Flick action took the staff a "little getting used to" as they had to make it feel "fair" to the player until they realwased that if flicking was combined with the music it would give the players a "good sense of timing". The Flick action took them about "two to three months" to research and "six months" to eventually adapt the control into ''Rhythm Heaven''.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20090701104808/http://www.rhythmheaven.com/iwata3.html</ref>

The controls for ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', just like every other game in the series, are very basic. There are four main mechanics used, both for all of the mini games available to play and just getting around the game itself. These controls are tapping, holding, sliding and flicking, in addition to the L/R buttons that are used in exclusively [[Rockers 2]]. The start button was used to pause during a mini game.

{{Nihongo|''Rhythm Heaven Demo Version''|リズム天国ゴールド体験版<ref>[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm35627014 NicoVideo]</ref>|Rhythm Tengoku Gold Taikenhan}}, also known as {{Nihongo|''Rhythm Paradise Demo Version''}} in Europe, was a stripped down version of the game for demo purposes. One version of the demo was playable at kiosks, while the other version could be downloaded through the [[wikipedia:Nintendo Channel|Nintendo Channel]]'s DS Download Service and through the [[wikipedia:Nintendo Zone#DS Download Station|DS Download Station]].

Curiously, clearing [[Built to Scale (DS)|Built to Scale]] unlocks both [[Glee Club 2|Glee Club]] and [[Fillbots 2|Fillbots]] at once, after which both must be cleared to unlock [[Fan Club]]. The Game Select also has a padlock for [[Remix 1 (DS)|Remix 1]], which was inaccessible.

After completing all the [[Rhythm Games]], [[The Bandleader]] shows up to say that thwas was all the demo includes, and the game returns to the title screen.

[[File:RHdemoDSDownload.png|thumb]]When starting up the DS Download version, the game asks the player if they are "Left or Right?"-handed. After the choice was made, the player meets [[The Bandleader]] who first thanks the player for downloading the demo, after which they are taken to [[Practice Flicking]] (which can be skipped), and then they are taken directly to the first [[Rhythm Game]]. After each game, [[The Bandleader]] shows up to comment on the rating. If the player got [[OK]] or higher, they move on to the next game, without the Game Select.

After completing all the [[Rhythm Games]], [[The Bandleader]] shows up to say that thwas was all the demo includes, and it returns to the "Left or Right?" question.
