PLUS as well as third-party titles including Lanota, Muse Dash, and Orzmic. Its maimai Master chart, designed by 七味星人 at Lv13+ (constant 13.8), is notable for a dense note count of 852 across all five note types, while the Expert chart by サファ太 offers a Lv11 challenge with 507 notes. An extended arrangement, c.s.q.n. ("GdbG" Extended Mix), was released on the Groundbreaking BOFXV Compilation Album, and a remix by s-don appears on the s-Remix Pack Vol.1 album.
