Agreed. I'd love to be able to restart where I left off. Maybe the high score could reset, but the music could continue. The music's great, and coupled with the color change at the drop, it could be really cool.

Thank you. I got annoyed by the mouse sensitivity and just wanted to hear the song. =pp
I use keyboard for such games.
I disagree, think of it like Bit.Trip Runner, the beat builds as you progress, but you have to start over if you fail.
Yes, but look how they do it. The music never skips a beat and certainly never cuts to straight silence, and Runner taps his feet for an appropriate number of beats so he launches himself at the right time. It's still a shock to lose, but it's not a bucket of cold water to the face like this.
Bit.Trip Runner was not this difficult. And it's hard to make out the difference between an open space and a closed one. I tried it about 30 times and then gave up.
Super Hexagon.
I hated playing that too, even though it was not quite as hard.
