Okay, I don't feel so bad then! I might just play PaRappa 2, then, because it's hard for me to play a rhythm game without getting that satisfying feedback.

This is the second time in a week that Hexbear has made me wonder about doing a romhack that's way above my ability. I mean, the fact that no one's done it by now speaks volumes—sound code can be pretty gnarly by itself, and this wouldn't just be playing music but trying to adjust how the music syncs with the visuals and how input is evaluated...but it would be so cool! Maybe someday. At any rate, it sent me down a mini rabbit hole of poking around in the ROM, doing a bit of binary parsing, and learning about the PSX debugging tools, though, which is something I've been interested in!
