Hi players, I'm Daztrax, the developer and creator of LEZ. I would like to give you a quick summary of the game reviews and feedback we've gotten during the Steam Rhythm Fest, what will we do with the feedback we've gotten, and last but not least, the future changes.
First of all, during this event, the game got a total of 3,495 (Approximately) downloads around the world, which makes me think there's a lot of new players, with 12 Steam reviews in total during the event.
Now, I would like to talk about the feedback we got from the Steam reviews.
- The first topic we got as feedback is regarding to the timings of the notes that the player tries to hit, mainly about how it is not accurate, this issue was one of the hardest ones to fix during the entire development, but we already found a big solution and we'll add it for the next update, also, we got a lot of feedback about the suggestion for an UR bar (give feedback to the player of how early or late the player hit the notes), we have the plan to add that feature for the next update.
- The second topic is about the UI (User interface) and skins, we completely understand that sometimes it's hard to navigate in-game and play with the current UI, for the next update the UI will be completely redesigned and reorganized, we also got a lot of comments about other types of skins, which for now are rectangles/boxes. Most of the feedback regarding to this is to add other skin type, mainly about circles, we didn't have the plan to add a circle skin, but since we're having several requests regarding this, we'll try to add a circle skin to the game, we may not be able to add it for the next update, but after the next update we'll work on that.
- We also got some feedback regarding to the localizations of the game, we made a new system for the in-game localizations, and with a feature to let the players add/fix localizations, once we release the upcoming update we will reveal the GitHub page to submit changes to all the localizations for the game.
- We also received several feedbacks regarding to the beatmaps, such as the difficulty and also custom beatmaps. First, lets talk about the difficulty: the game has beatmaps with different difficulties, some experimented players said that some beatmaps were too easy and there's no harder beatmaps in the game, meanwhile, casual players said that there's almost no beatmaps for them to pass since a lot of songs are too difficult for them. We always try to balance the difficulty of the beatmaps to let the casual players be able to pass beatmaps and also let the experimented players feel the challenge of harder beatmaps, we always try to add more songs with more difficulties and soon we will add a feature to add several difficulties to one song. Now, let's talk about custom beatmaps: we're finally working on a beatmap editor for the game to let the players create their own beatmaps, we already made one for private use and we were trying to implement it in the game, but with the pass of the time, it became obsolete and we decided to make a new beatmap editor from scratch.
- And last but not least, we received feedback about customization, we always want to give the player the best experience possible, and for that, we'll add more customization options to the game, not only for the next update but also for future updates depending on all the feedback we get for this.
We have more feedback and more stuff to share, but we will share more details alongside the update.
For the next and upcoming updates, we're planning to make videos explaining the changes we make to the game and release those videos alongside the updates. I would like to hear your thoughts on this.

I always try to listen to each and every one of you to improve the game, I would like to thank everyone who played the game not only during the Steam Rhythm Fest but also at any time and gave feedback and reviews.
Now to end this, I would like to invite to everyone to join the official Discord server since we have the plan to show WIPs (Works in progress) about the new update and discuss about them, meanwhile anyone can also talk, about the game or any topic not related to the game.
Now, a big thing I would like to let everyone know about this game: This game is being developed by only myself, there's not full developer team behind this game, thank you for all your feedback once again, making a game is not as easy some people think, but it's not impossible, thank you for your support <3
