Overview

Rogue-lite twin-stick shooter where you listen to the beat, dodge and fire to the music, and blast through hostile robots on the rooftops of the City.

About the game

Music drives everything in this rogue-lite twin-stick shooter. Listen to the beat, get into the flow, and fight through bullet hell on the rooftops of the city against hostile robots.

Humans left a while ago, leaving androids and robots under the control of the rogue A.I. Zeitgeber, which is trying to impose its own groove on robo-kind. Someone has to pull the plug.

Everything is tied to the underlying beat, including weapons, enemies, and environmental hazards. Use the music to anticipate attacks, time dodges, avoid traps, and know when to fire, use special skills, and unleash charged super attacks.

Runs take place across procedurally generated maps, so no two playthroughs are the same. Back in the hub, you can upgrade core traits, buy new weapons, and equip extensions.
