Project Arrhythmia is an action rhythm bullet-hell video game[1] currently in development by Texas-based[2] indie game developer Lily Craver[3], whose also known as Vitamin Games (formerly Lime Studios). It was released on June 14, 2019 in early access for Microsoft Windows, and planned to be leaving the early access state on December, 2020.[4] The game includes a level editor[5] which allows the game to have user-generated content, since the game's official levels are currently unfinished.
Gameplay
editUp to eight players each control a small square (with 3 smaller squares following behind it representing the player's health), known as a nanobot[6], surviving attacks by dodging against a variety of obstacles, pulsating shapes, blocks, and bars. These attacks appear, move, and attack in rhythm to the music. Getting hit by one of these attacks causes the player to lose a square following behind it. The player also have the ability to dash through attacks and obstacles without losing health.[1]
Plot
editThe game is set inside the Arrhythmia Committee's supercomputer, in the year 2057, where a deadly disease called Tokyo Flu[7] is currently plaguing humanity. The player plays as an unnamed nanobot[6] created by an artificial intelligence stored in a super computer named Hal. The goal of the game is to research the cure for the Tokyo Flu, alongside a character named Anna Schroeder who will accompany the player throughout the whole game.[8] The game's story mode is currently incomplete and still in development, so changes are bound to happen.
Development
editAccording to Lily Craver, the game was said to be in development over the course of the past 6 years already before the beta launch, since this was originally a solo project that Craver started off herself when she was still in high school and as a hobby.[5]
Soundtrack
editThe Project Arrhythmia soundtrack is composed by several music artists, including Chipzel, Shirobon, Meganeko, Creo, and Miyolophone.[9] Apart from the official songs, usage of .ogg audio files in community created levels is also available providing that the artists have give consent for the song to be used otherwise.
