Everything I built
Game
Rhythm and Blade
developmentA duel to the beat, seen through your own eyes, and an early test of something bigger. Every blow your opponent throws lands on the music: dodge it, slow time when the song goes quiet, and strike back when you see your opening. Every miss costs one of your three hearts. Lose the last one and the duel is over, but you’re back in the fight in seconds.
