In Space They Can't Hear You Beat

Submission to the Kenney Jam 2025. A rhythm-based bullet hell set in Mars.

Power up your ship by staying on the beat!

How to play

You can control your ship with WASD and play the note with ARROW keys to fire.

Warning!

As this is a rhythm game, sound stutters may occur (especially when playing in the browser). If you can't run the game consistently, please download the binaries for either Windows or Linux below. There's also some experimental options to calibrate your settings on the pause menu (ESC key).

I really like this idea! It's a cool concept although it was confusing at the start. My only critique would be that with the game using WASD and the arrow keys, having the start button be the mouse makes it less fluid to retry. Not a big issue or anything just something I noticed, but other than that this is a really cool entry!
