    FEATURES:

    Rhythmic awareness is vital when you jump, dash or slam. You have to hit that beat! Never under any circumstances should you play on mute! Feel creative, play with the music and unleash your inner musician! Inside My Radio lets you compose the track: YOU are in control, either with your actions, movements or jam zone, where you can freely choose and mix the tracks the way you want. The game is a mix-tape where every level is a different track: every level brings different variations to electro, disco or dub! Enjoyed the experience but want more? Try to finish the levels before the clock expires, in Time Attack mode. Its rhythm or die time: the more you hit the beat, the higher your score multiplier goes, the better your score. Don't miss a beat or you will lose your multiplier AND get a time penalty!    … Expand

    Inside My Radio is an often clever, creative and fun platformer/rhythm-action hybrid that perhaps pulls too many of its rabbits out of its hat before the final act. While it suffers for being a bit short, and for not always blending the two genres as well as it could, it does have an incredibly vibrant identity of its very own, and that’s something worth praising.

    As a rhythm game fan, I have to say that Inside My Radio left me disappointed. It might have been an amazing experience had I been unable to follow a simple beat upon starting up the game, but years of experience in the genre made the experience entirely trivial.

    Inside My Radio is a brief, interesting romp that never lives up to the potential it enters with.

    Journey as a green LED mysteriously trapped inside a dying boombox. Bring electronica, dub and disco music back to life! Inside My Radio is aJourney as a green LED mysteriously trapped inside a dying boombox. Bring electronica, dub and disco music back to life! Inside My Radio is a rhythm-platformer, meaning all actions besides movement must be performed with the beat of the music. Picture it being kind of like Sound Shapes on crack.
    It features a very cool neon art style with changing environments based on the music of the character you are using. The game features very cool beat puzzles throughout, with every type of puzzle you could imagine. From a Tetris-Guitar Hero puzzle, to boss battle dance-offs, to timing-rhythm fights, you won't be bored with the diverse types of rhythm puzzles in this game! There are also some cool easter eggs/references throughout so make sure to explore a little while moving through the levels. The story is quite interesting as well, and if you really think about it it is quite clever, with spiders taking over and killing the boombox, just as would happen if you let your actual boombox sit around without use for years.
    I have three knocks on the game, however. Sometimes the music is to faint to hold onto the actual beat of the music causing some frustration in timing your jumps and dashes, but luckily it does have a metronome that can be put up around your character for those situations. Also, the final boss fight gets a little unfair, but it is doable. Lastly, the length is really short. It only plays about 2 hours or so all the way through, but sometimes it is nice to be able to pump right through a game, so that could be a positive or negative.
    Overall I really enjoyed Inside My Radio and would recommend it to everyone who like platformers or rhythm games. Great mesh of the two genres.

You are supposed to correspond all your button presses with the rhythm of the boring music and if you don't hit the button right you cannot do your move. It would have been better as just a generic platformer. Not fun. I do not like this game.… Expand
