Quick answer
The first ten minutes should teach the player to listen first, move continuously, and shoot with the beat before chasing advanced parry or speed routes.
Start with readable BPM and simple movement. If the run feels chaotic, lower the BPM before blaming your aim.
First-run training loop
Move continuously
Standing still breaks flow and makes enemies feel faster than they are.
Use easier cassettes
A 111-145 BPM track is often better for learning than a show-off challenge song.
Beginner build lane

| Aim discipline | 120-160 BPM | Precision weapon, readable beat, fewer panic jumps, and cleaner target tracking. |
| Speed demon | 170-240 BPM | Movement uptime, low hesitation, and short repeatable rooms. |
| Achievement hunter | Flexible | BPM chosen for the goal, written setup notes, safe weapon, and repeat attempts. |
