As a recent addition to the rhythm game genre which rockets the player to space, Sixtar Gate: Startrail<\/a><\/strong> is currently in early access on Steam, and looking towards a full release on the Switch on March 16, 2023. The title\u2019s anime-inspired aesthetics focus on the mascot character Shii, offering pleasant visuals and artwork themed around the fluffy girl\u2019s explorations of the universe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But a rhythm game is, first and foremost, about the music. Sixtar Gate: Startrail offers an incredible soundtrack, brimming with songs that are dynamic and enjoyable, but also suited towards fast-paced and intense rhythm gameplay. Though Sixtar\u2019s presentation and narrative are currently a bit underdeveloped, the compelling and competent charts for incredible songs will keep you playing the game for one more listen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The soundtrack of Sixtar Gate: Startrail leans towards energetic electronic compositions which are closest in the genre to Vocaloid artists like Kairiki Bear, and electronic Touhou composers like Shibayan Records. And the game does include Touhou fan songs and a paid DLC pack for additional Touhou content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The soundtrack excels at typical strong points for electronic songs: fast, blood-pumping buildups, explosive choruses, and an interesting mix between pleasant synth melodies and vocals. But its music is layered and dynamic to the point that one genre does not do Sixtar Gate: Startrail justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The electronic tunes offer very interesting variations on rhythm and intensity so songs are always pleasantly surprising. The song Crossing Delta switches between a lighter melody with sounds reminiscent of a marimba, into an explosive stretch of percussion and pulsing synth sounds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
