History YMMV / Deemo

* PolishedPort: Similar to VideoGame/{{Voez}}, The UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch version has the songs unlocking through natural progression in the story, and fixes the below criticism by simply making it to where you don't have to buy ''any'' song packs. It's fully inclusive.
** In a subversion, The UsefulNotes/PlaystationPortable version was an acceptable alternative to the mobile version, ''but'' at the price of having one of the smallest song libraries of any version, and none of the AntiGrinding mechanics of the 3.0 update and Switch version are present.

* AntiClimaxBoss: Chapter K from ''VideoGame/{{Cytus}}'' is back, split into the Knight Iris and Knight Rosabell books. "The Fallen Bloom", representing the chapter's climatic [[spoiler:duel between Iris and Rosabell]], is rated only a 7 on Hard. To compare, the ''first'' song in the duology, the happy and peppy song "The Way We Were", is [[BossInMookClothing rated a 9]] [[SoundtrackDissonance on the same difficulty]].

** For the Vanros Kloud pack, Pure White takes the cake.

** The [=M2U=] pack has Lune, a song that has it's tempo change every once in a while throughout the song that leaves you with no breaks.

* ScrappyMechanic: On top of paying 2 USD for the game, you ''have'' to buy song packs unless you like having your tree grow in microscopic increments per song played, since you only gain significant tree growth for playing a song for the first time. And sometimes the game goes on sale...which is ''pointless'' because a. it's only a 1 USD discount, and b. the DLC packs ''never go on sale''. Fixed in the 3.0 update, in which light orbs occasionally appear to give you substantial tree growth or steps progress.

** The debate of the most hardest songs changes in each version. As of now, Anima is the placeholder of the hardest song among all of the released songs for Deemo.

** In the Shattered Memories pack, Run Lads Run, due to the high tempo and fast pacing made it be called as [[FanNickname "The second coming of Anima"]].

** Say hello to Marigold, the final unlockable song in the Forgotten Hourglass update, which makes ''Myosotis'' and ''Anima'' look like '''Easy''' songs in comparison. It is rated '''''12''''' on the hard difficulty. Have fun.

* EpilepticTrees: Following the DisturbingNumber entry from the main page, there were many different theories of what Deemo is about, one of them is that Deemo is someone important to the girl and the songs also give hints of {{Foreshadowing}} of what truly happened to the girl. "Run Go Run" was a blatant one which foreshadows that [[spoiler: the girl was involved in a car accident.]]
