Beat Hazard

What works

Installation and running works exactly as it does on Windows 7.  All input, output and gameplay, with one major and one untested minor exception, work perfectly.

What does not

This game is built, like Audiosurf, on the idea of building levels based on the selected music.  Currently the game plays the included songs fine but freezes up on the option to read songs from a local directory.  I allowed the game to sit frozen, after selecting the option, for over an hour hoping it was just a slow read process (which I have happen on Audiosurf) with no change.

Additional Comments

I debated with myself between Silver and Bronze rating this as I don't believe not being able to do the thing that is it's main selling point is 'normal use', but it does work flawlessly beyond that and if that worked would be Platnum rated. I ultimately decided it's closer in spirit to silver than to Bronze.
