This game is definitely not finished and half the systems aren't implemented, but I wanted to put up something playable rather than sit on it forever. While this build is much less complete than I'd have liked, I hope it's enough for people to see the concept and get some feedback on whether it works or not.

Around ~1 minute of the song has been synced to various enemies and obstacles for you to shoot or avoid. The song will continue to play after that point but the ship will just loop over an empty landscape (you can restart the song with the "R" key). 

I made this as my Q4 21 project for Quarterly Made Games which is a new Hong Kong based developer collective. The goal is for us to complete a project every three months in a low stakes, low pressure environment but with a shared deadline and community to help keep us motivated.

I haven't decided what to work on for the next quarter yet, but may keep chipping away at this in the background.
