Rushing Beat X sounds like it has that nostalgic charm we love from classic beat-em-ups! I totally get the mixed feelings, those games often balance between fun and frustration, especially if the controls aren’t as tight as we’d like.

The kitchen cooking part is a fun little break between stages. Enemy variety is way better than I expected with all those weird creatures. Some positioning issues pop up but nothing that ruined the experience. Good comeback for the series.
