About D4DJ Groovy Mix

D4DJ Groovy Mix is a rhythm game that puts you in a DJ booth to mix authentic hits that will make people want to dance. Following the musical notes of each song, you'll need to do your best to make sure the characters get their groove on nonstop.

In D4DJ Groovy Mix you'll find a lot of the groups belonging to this Japanese franchise created by the company Bushiroad. In fact, in the title itself you'll be able to select multiple characters known mainly in Japan. At the same time, the game also has official licenses for tons of perfectly recognizable songs that you'll be able to mix to create amazing rhythms in the club.

The gameplay in D4DJ Groovy Mix is the usual for games of this sort. Basically, you just have to slide your finger on the screen to follow the rhythm. As the colored pieces are descending, you have to move your finger over them in order to get as many points as possible. This will allow you to get the different characters to dance and sing until the end of each song.

D4DJ Groovy Mix offers an extensive list of songs for you to mix and make you feel like the king of the dance floor. You'll need to move as fast as possible to keep up with the rhythm, as you try to intercept all the notes and climb up the world rankings.

More Details

D4DJ Groovy Mix (also known as simply Groovy Mix or グルミクnote  in Japanese) is a Rhythm Game / Gacha Game for iOS and Android, developed by Donuts Games and published by Bushiroad for release in Japan on October 25, 2020 and as a global English-language release on May 27, 2021, as part of the D4DJ multimedia franchise. The international version of the game was originally going to be simply the Japanese version with an English language option, but licensing issues with the non-original songs necessitated a separate app with its own songlist and delayed updates (although some songs, like the ones for the Guilty Gear -STRIVE- collaboration, are released simultaneously in the English and Japanese versions).

The story centers around a major festival known as D4FES, hosting its first iteration for the first time in eight years. Six of the units are introduced in Chapter 1 of the "Road to D4FES" arc, while a seventh unit, Call of Artemis, is introduced in Chapter 2 of the same arc.

The core gameplay features five lines of tap and hold notes, similar to other lane-based rhythm games. Unique to this game is the addition of Fader and Disc notes, meant to better replicate the controls of a DJ station: Fader notes require the player to move the on-screen slider horizontally so that they catch the notes, Fader Flick notes require the player to flick the fader in the corresponding direction, Scratch notes fall on either of two dedicated lanes (for a total of seven lanes) require the player to flick across the left or right turntable depending on the note while moving the notes back a few pixels, while Scratch hold notes behave like standard hold notes but freeze the notes until the end of the hold.note 

Like in other idol/gacha-based rhythm games, the player can choose to play in Free Live mode, which is the single-player mode, or Multi-Live mode, where the player matches up with up to three other players and try to contribute a total combined score. This game also features Medley Live mode, where the player chooses four songs that are mixed together into a roughly 2 1/2-minute medley.

The Premium Currency of this game is Diamonds; Diamonds are primarily used to roll the gacha for cards of varying rarity, but can also be spent on certain other features like restoring Voltage (what other mobile games would call "stamina") or purchasing sound effect sets. Diamonds can be acquired either through in-game missions and achievements, or by spending real money. Players can also spend real money on two different feature passes: D4PASS, which provides extra log-in bonuses and other extra features to the player, and Live Pass, which adds several features to make the game more like a conventional rhythm game (like fast/slow note hit display, the "Just Perfect" note rating, and accuracy-based scoring with no team parameter influence) as well as a practice mode and extra Medley preset slots and the option to listen to Medley song transitions to make sure they mix well together.

Groovy Mix features a variety of original songs produced to represent the franchise's seven main units, as well as a few other minor units. Similar to BanG Dream! Girls Band Party!, another Bushiroad-published game, there are covers of songs produced in the styles of the D4DJ units as well. Unlike GBP, this game also features original, non-cover licensed songs, and notably features songs and arranges thereof from other video games, including other rhythm games like WACCA, Performai (Japan version only), and Groove Coaster, and even retro games like Darius, R-Type, and City Connection.

D4DJ Groovy Mix provides examples of the following tropes

Swipe notes and scratch notes will always be graded as Perfect (or Just Perfect if you have the Live Pass), Bad, or Miss, so as long as you're not horribly off with your timing you don't have to worry about when exactly you need to start performing the motions for these notes.

Mana Kase's birthday is on May 18. However, the international version of the game did not get the update that introduced her unit, Call of Artemis, until May 26, 2022. To prevent players from having to wait almost an entire year, her birthday celebration events took place from May 30 to June 2, 2022.

Normally, playing songs in a Medley Live disqualifies you from their score, combo, and play count missions. However, in event Medley Lives, songs you play will count towards play count missions, likely to compensate for the fact that grinding Medley events means you won't be playing regular songs as much. As of a Summer 2022 update, not only does this update to non-Event Medley play, you can also complete score missions in them too.

Hold notes do not need to have the release timed correctly; as long as you hold to the end, you'll get a (Just) Perfect for the tail end of the note, even if you over-hold it. This is notable because nearly all other idol rhythm games punish over-holding of notes.

The fader has a few to avoid it becoming too complex:

You don't actually need to use the fader to track the line. You just need to make sure the fader is in the correct position when its note comes up. You can even just tap the fader at the right time.

When you need to flick the fader, you only need to flick it in the correct direction. You don't even need to start from where the flick note is at.

Similar to other rhythm games with a sliding hold note, where the note counts as being hit is about half a lane on either side from where it actually is. So if you see a zig-zag grouping that's a lane apart, you can put the fader in the middle and you'll get it as if it were a vertical line.
