Just Shapes and Beats was one of the many pleasant surprises shown off during today's Nindie presentation, and is described as a “musical bullet hell” game where you "navigate deadly shapes solo or in local or online co-op multiplayer, all to a soundtrack composed by 20 chiptune artists". Sounds like a hoot!
The game has been in development for a few years now, and still hasn't had a full release on Steam. "Chaotic four-player couch co-op" is promised, which will make this the perfect fit for Switch.
A timed console exclusive for Switch, Just Shapes and Beats arrives this summer. Let us know if you'll be dancing to its merry tune by composing a comment below.

I feel like this game is trying to appeal directly to me.
...it’s working.
Hope for less than 8$CAN.

I've been waiting forever for this, and so glad it's Switch-bound! I played this at an Indie showcase a few years ago and have been eagerly anticipating its release. Everyone should check this one out.
This game is amazing! I've played this at the last few PAX Easts and have been dying for it to release. So glad that Switch gets it first! Instant day-one buy for me!
Erm...this game looks thrilling in every way electronic can be! Total 80's adrenaline rush!
If it's below $5 or so I'll get it immediately. If less than. $10 I'll consider it. This is the only Nindie I liked from the presentation... Don't disappoint me Ninty and gang
It looks like there are some sound shapes in this game.
The onslaught at 0:54 looks really menacing.
I don't know if I have the guts to play this game to be honest...
Awesome graphics!
....That trailer....wtf? lol
This game is a ripoff of Sound Shapes™ for Vita/PS4, but I like it. If there's a user creation toolkit in the game, it will be incredible and rivaled Sound Shapes. This game and Lumines (PSP killer app) is the best news.
Coming soon...in your face.
Uhhh that came out wrong.
This is a ripoff of Project Arrhythmia, a game I've been following since 2014. Here's some gameplay of it!

I'm furious about it personally. If you like to support developers with original ideas, you can buy Project Arrhythmia right now in early access and play that level above!
@endonet the only true thing you just said is "I'm furious about it personally"
