To all players who have been following Bansonic (formerly Ease Out):

It has been nearly a year since our last update, and we imagine many of you have been eagerly awaiting the official release of the game. Today, we have some great news to share: our game is officially entering the "internal testing" phase!

We will be inviting players with extensive experience in music games, as well as seasoned game developers, to assist us in this test (Bansonic Specialist Evaluation #1). During this process, we hope to gather valuable feedback and suggestions to improve both gameplay and art design. This will help us refine the game and ensure that players can have the best possible experience when it officially launches.

Test Period:
March 1, 16:00 (UTC+8) – March 8, 16:00 (UTC+8)
Please note that the schedule may be subject to change based on circumstances. The final decision will be communicated within our testing group chat.

Test Focus:

• Core music gameplay mechanics (including chart design for various levels, scoring system and statistics, formation system design, etc., along with feedback on strengths, weaknesses, and suggestions for improvement).

• UI, animations, and art (including feedback on current art style, UI design and interactions, animations, and suggestions for enhancements).

Additionally, after internal discussions, we have decided to officially rename the game to Bansonic (Chinese title: 《绊奏》). This change reflects not only the restructuring of our development team but also a reboot of the game's storyline and world-building. We have also decided to set aside nearly all of the original art and music library from Ease Out to reorganize our assets and team management. This will allow us to curate and create even better music and artwork, ensuring that the game can be presented to players in the best possible way in the future.

We sincerely appreciate your support!

Best regards,
The Entire Bansonic Development Team
