I'm going to be directly comparing to Cytus 2 because this is in my opinion a free alternative to that game. Anyone can chart new levels which means there are potentially many more charts to play and more popular music from other games, anime, etc. There are of course downsides to that too. It can be hard to find easy charts so Cytoid isn't that beginner friendly. Compared to Cytus 2, Cytoid feels less polished and the levels aren't made as well as the ones in Cytus 2. Cytoid is free though!

Hi there, we made a lot of optimizations and added a bunch of cool features in 2.0. Could you try it out and let us know your opinions? Thanks!

The game is great, but it's plagued with technical issues. The latest update fixed some instability problems, but added a much worse bug where after playing for a few minutes the screen glitches out (as in, it looks like it's physically broken) and the phone locks up - I had to go into sleep to get out of it. This happened three times, and reinstalling didn't help. I've played Cytoid on and off since 2017 and love it, but I can't play it like this. (Phone's a 2024 Moto G5 power if it helps.)
