With some new social features, online play, or even some adjustments that more closely tie in the arrangement of enemies with the pace of the music, Beat Hazard's value could ascend well beyond the $10 asking price.

The best thing Beat Hazard has going for it is the price. At $9.99 it's easy to recommend the title to anyone with the means to play it, as it provides a new way to experience music. For anyone who would normally sit down and listen to songs for an hour or two, it's simply an extension of that, and while it might not be able to go toe-to-toe with other two-stick shooters, it's competent enough to sustain itself in three to four minute bursts.

Conceptually beautiful, it takes the basic mechanics of a twin stick, top-down shooter and then essentially procedurally generates enemies - and therefore entire levels - based on the ebb and flow of any given music track. Unsurprisingly, the hook of being able to import all your favourite tunes into the game is a seductive one.
