Robobeat

ROBOBEAT is a rogue-like rhythm shooter in which you play Ace, a bounty hunter pursuing the eccentric robot-showman Frazzer. The central activity is fighting through Frazzer’s techno-playground, timing shots to the music while moving through its levels. The pursuit is framed as an attempt to break an infinite loop and stop Frazzer.

The pursuit takes place in a mansion whose secrets are uncovered as you progress. Songs, weapons and utilities unlock along the way, and the environments and visuals adapt to the music.

Gameplay and features

• Shoot in time with the music: Syncing shots to the beat can increase damage and shorten cooldowns. Combat also includes charged shots, damage multipliers and armour-piercing rounds.
• Move through platforming levels: Traverse levels with wall runs, slides, double jumps, bunny hops and a grapple hook while evading enemies.
• Customize the soundtrack: Use the in-game editor to upload and trim a music track or leave it untrimmed for beats to be generated automatically. Custom songs can be changed during play, and the feature supports WAV, MP3 and OGG files.
• Adapt each run: Levels are procedurally generated. Equip weapons and combine them with modifications; new runs can bring different playstyle possibilities.
