A music game like no other, Rytmos orchestrates a distinct blend of music-themed puzzles to solve alongside the opportunity for players to create their own melodies utilising a catalogue of unlockable instruments and modifiers. Set in space, every planet players travel to presents a set of six line puzzles to solve. Each of these puzzles requires players to pass through sound emitters before then returning to the start point in order to form a musical loop. As each loop is made, more layers are added to the game’s evolving soundscape, forming musical compositions in real-time that are based on the player’s actions. Progress through each cubic cosmos rewards players with the chance to become musicians themselves. Instruments such as the Kalimba, Vibraphone and even classic 1980s synthesisers can be used to not only jam along with the in-game soundtracks but also make brand new melodies. By completion, Rytmos evolves into not just a simple puzzle game but a fully functional music maker with the capability to make complex musical tracks.

Rhythm-driven Gameplay: Move with the music to overcome even the most difficult hazards, like laser beams or insane camera angles trying to explode both your balls and your brain. Dynamic Music and SFX: The dynamic music by Emmy-nominated composer Nicholas Singer is tailored to the rhythm and style of each level, with sound effects adjusting to the level's music. Without it, you'd fail even harder. Epic Storyline: Not included. Instead, be guided by floor texts that make fun of you when you fail and drop awful puns even if you unexpectedly don't.

His cohort and sidekick DAN has aspirations to be the next big hit indie platform character. He's got everything he needs: he's hip, he's sensitive, and his nose is a different colour to the rest of his face. LAIR OF THE CLOCKWORK GOD sees you switching between both characters and using their unique abilities together in a race-against-time effort to stop all the Apocalypses happening simultaneously, by teaching an old computer about feelings. Solve classic point-and-click style puzzles as Ben to create unique upgrade items for Dan, so he can jump higher, run faster and blast away at everything with a shiny new gun.
