It looks fun, but holy cow(bell!), half a gig and seven bucks? I'll stick to watching the SNL clips.

That's prolly coz you're paying for the licensed songs, and I dont see any IAPs in there either.

Im still so in deep into Demon's Score as my go-to rhythm game, but i will definitely give this game a shot soon.

I don't think I'll be dropping 7 bucks for this but any game that has 2 funkadelic songs has gotta be awesome.

Yes, the licensed music is the main factor for the high price.

There is a minimum amount those songs have to be paid per copy sold. We think it is a good value still. All songs are included. There is no in app purchase.

There are also a lot of bonus songs and we will be adding more bonus songs for free in future updates. And the bonus songs are really good. The game currently has 26 songs.

I figured as much, just like Exact-Psience stated. My comment wasn't at all meant to bash the game. 6.99 is just a little more than I'm willing to spend on an iOS game. I love rhythm based games but tend to get bored with them quickly. And that goes for everything from Guitar Hero to the Tap Tap games. It's great that you included Don't Fear The Reaper because it just wouldn't be the same without it.

I hate to be "that guy", but there's no way I pay this much for a non-universal game. It's not necessarily the price in and of itself, but how can this not support iPads at that cost?

We plan for it to be a universal app. We have all the ipad and ipad retina artwork already. It will be added in a future update.

Ok, well that certainly makes this a more likely purchase. Thanks for the info!
