Beat2x First Test (GP2x Game)

Image provided by: miq01Miq01 released a first test version of his StepMania like game Beat2x.

I’m working in a rythm game similar to StepMania (for those who wonder why not porting it instead of working on a remake, it’s just because I wanted to start it from scratch). For now, it’s playable during the first 45 seconds of a song as I haven’t added events for the rest.
