General Information

• Pastel-kun returns as the mascot again.
• The name "colette" is a portmanteau of the words "collect" and "palette"
• Timing has been changed again. It is tighter than REFLEC BEAT limelight but not as much as the original REFLEC BEAT.
• It is now possible to Just Reflec downwards. This reflects the note towards the players side and then back to the opponent at a much faster speed than normal.
• New gauge type: Clear Gauge Type B. This is a reversed version of the classic clear gauge from REFLEC BEAT limelight, where the player starts with 100% and the gauge slowly drops over the course of the song, displaying the real-time average.
• Gold Objects have been redesigned to better distinguish them from Black Objects.
• The Symbol Chat has been expanded.
• The Just Reflec Gauge now holds five Just Reflec bars.
• The color of the cabinets will change according to the season.
• The game customization interface has received an overhaul to accommodate several new options.
• The song unlock system has been overhauled. You unlock songs after a single playthrough of the whole game instead of after a single stage, similar to jubeat.
• A progress bar has been implemented for FINAL ROUND songs. Filling up the bar will unlock the song permanently for play.
