Each part of the square is made up of smaller shapes that represent your health, so after a few hits, you lose your life, with only a handful of continues to play with. You see, in Just Shapes and Beats you play a shape (spoiler) that evolves from a triangle, slowly into a square. Unlike games such as Thumper or classics like Parappa the Rappa, you needn’t time your moves with a button press, but it does elude to your next move. Just Shapes and Beats is a rhythm game of sorts.
