Chunithm

Overview

Chunithm (portmanteau of words chūnibyō (basically a slang term that describes teenagers that have an edgy behaviour) and "rhythm"), is a rhythm game for the arcades. Players use a wide touch panel to hit the notes at the correct time, following the rhythm of a particular song/track. Originally, the game only supported the touch panel, but later versions added other mechanics, such as the "Air" mechanic, where players must hover their hand over certain notes when promted. The game supports simple hitting of notes, long presses, sliding and hover. The harder the difficulty level, the more the player experiences these new movements that they must master to win. The game features a comprehensive list of songs to choose from, from game and anime soundtracks to J-Pop hits. Players can play as a guest, or they can make a profile using Sega's Aime card to store player data. Registering a profile allows for important bonuses for progression. By playing songs, one levels up their skills which unlocks new modes, characters, profile customization options and more. Upon completing a song, players progress through certain stages in a campaign of their choosing, where they can unlock new songs. At the end of the campaign, usually there is a song that they must complete in order to proceed further. In addition to unlocking characters, playing certain characters grant the player advantages in progressing through. Chunithm also has daily challenges that contribute more experience points to the player's profile, raising their rank. Multiplayer option is present as well, with up to four players locally. Each of the players can help each other in completing a song and accumulate points.
