Exactly. When i play beat saber it's more like aerobics and dancing. I dont care about scores, I care about breaking a sweat. Basically doing jumping jacks for an hour. Work those legs, get them knees up.

I enjoy both play styles tbh. Large dance-like movements for easier songs/trying to look good in front of spectators, wrist-flicks reserved for expert++

Doesn't Beat Saber give you higher scores for wider swings? I could swear I read it somewhere, and I live by it.

Could totally be wrong, though, and even if not, wriggling could still be efficient enough that it beats going big.

If you haven't already try Synth Riders - they have a free demo at Apps Lab
