for a quarter of a million dollars, you too can be a fully-blown entrepreneur and own this old-ass, horribly jank hunting lodge in the middle of nowhere

speaking of, if you aren't sleeping there, you get to sleep in the Bomb Shelter, featuring at least 16 different beds to rest in, on more probably fragile bed frames!
no you don't get to re-angle that first bed that definitely has enough space to be pushed back in

connected to this, is the ~Rec Room~, with the worst wallpaper i have ever seen delicately placed on two pillars, a giant table for one TV, more questionably old furniture, and...a bed? in the recroom??
i guess this is where you get condemned to at night if you don't hunt as well as everyone else

as you descend further into the catacombs, you begin to see even more questionable design choices, such as this insane clash of disconnected colors
leading into appliances that look like they came out of 2004 or so
AND another one of these bedframes that looks like it'd snap if you were too heavy

there's also this bathroom connected to here where there's a giant mirror not mounted to anything?? just left slightly slanted on the wall, ready to slide down at the slightest accidental nudge

although the second you turn around in this kitchen you are met with the area you can sit and have your shoulder bashed in by this door if you've made the unfortunate decision to sit on the left side

there *are* some relatively inoffensive design choices in some of these rooms, like the dining room and bathroom are pretty well-laid out, and the kitchen is something i'd actually want to use, with surprisingly modern appliances

like no seriously what's going on in this one bedroom. why are you trying to temperature control a garage bedroom. why is light visibly leaking through the floor where the 'doors' are. what the FUCK

the above-ground bedrooms are also a sight to behold
the first one having a tiny-ass window on the side
the second having a grand piano taking up 30% of the space, and seemingly being in a garage?
and the third having some kind of horrible wooden bedframe with the worst 'crib' (??) i've ever seen

from the outside, it looks about as average as it could be, from a building made in the literal 1900s
looks like it could do with some work, but it's not anything outwardly terrible

today on 'yap central', starring myself, as i try to distract myself from Problems; this fucking hunting lodge i found up for sale not too long ago while looking for something else entirely

...oh yeah, bonus fun fact for this post; the 'question' for this one was that there was no question. except there kind of was because the SQUARE PIXELS logo in the original image was upside-down, which somehow meant 'clear stage 3 of Street Mix 5 with REVERSE active'.

anyways, that's enough of my goobery yappin' about a game series that's long since vanished; not counting EZ2ON REBOOT : R, of course (which, by the way, buy it buy it play it play it it's so good)! hopefully you enjoyed this thread and it was interesting to like, at least One person out there

even outside of arcade rhythm games; rhythm game devs, don't be afraid to get silly with your unlocks! make something difficult to solve, but rewarding to attain! allow for really fun ideas and hidden tracks that are discoverable through unique means! if you've got ideas, i believe you can do them!

personally, i think this was a great idea! with improved (less crazy) hints, i think this would be a really fun idea to return to in modern arcade games; with maimai, there's already ARG events like 'project raputa' and the more recent 'KALEIDXSCOPE', so what's stopping others from doing the same?

was it a worthwhile unlock system? that's mostly up to personal opinon, but from what i've seen while researching this, it was mostly well-received. some of the hints were regarded a bit too tough (as you've probably seen), and some of the unlock conditions were even taken down pretty fast.

in the end, the final question's answer would be released on july 5th, 2013, and after managing to unlock it, you'd be rewarded with being able to play the game's ending song, 'northpole', as an extra stage song, along with unlocking other songs & courses, such as 'Legend' and 'Break of Dawn'.

to top it off, it's also the last letter, and to unlock it, you also have to get *all* of the previous letters; some less difficult than others, some pretty tough for most to do!! but...if you're able to do so, you'll be rewarded with the full phrase on the title screen: 'ENDLESS CIRCULATION'.

the chances of you doing this, even knowing what it is, are *astronomical*. can you name someone, including yourself, that can ALL KOOL the same song on a jank, silly mode like TURNTABLE, even on one of the easiest charts?? because i guarantee you that you can't

well, i'll tell you.
you have to play in a BATTLE, on TURNTABLE mode, and DRAW.
that means having a *completely* matching score.
that either means playing perfectly (ultra hard), or somehow getting the *exact same judgements* and comboing/missing at the *exact same points* as the other player.

with that, i leave the best for last, and it's a doozy. it's obviously TURNTABLE, but what on earth does 'SYNCHRONIZE' mean...?

again, i have no clue where the 1500 comes in! do you? because i don't!!
and also, good luck getting a difficulty sum of 35 in 3 stages (no extra stage), because you need to clear, at the very least, two 12s, and one 11. space mix is already hard to ALL COMBO; try doing it at mid-range difficulty!!
