    Make Your Own Hit — MR. RECORDS Demo Drops Music Level Editor for Steam Next Fest

    Your music. Your beats. Your world. Wired Productions and Glee-Cheese Studio have cranked the volume all the way up for MR. RECORDS this Steam Next Fest, releasing a major demo update that gives players the power to build, customise, and play their very own rhythm levels — from scratch.

    It’s not just about playing the records anymore — now you get to make them.

    What Is MR. RECORDS?

    MR. RECORDS is a heartfelt rhythm-adventure about George, a man who finally chases his lifelong dream of opening his very own record shop. Every album he spins transforms into a fully playable journey — surreal dream worlds where you run, jump, slide, and dodge in perfect sync with the music. The game weaves together original styles — funk, rock, hip-hop, electro, world music, 80s pop — with a tender story about memory, regret, connection, and the redemptive power of music.

    Now You’re in Control — The Music Level Editor

    The big news: the Music Level Editor is live right now in the updated Steam demo. Here’s what you can do:

    • Build from the Beat Up — Place notes, obstacles, and effects along a music timeline, then jump straight in and play your creation
    • Style Everything — Customise colours, animations, backgrounds, and visual assets to match the vibe
    • Your Tracks, Your Tempo — On PC, import your own music, and the editor generates gameplay synced to every beat
    • Share the Vibe — Send your custom levels to friends or the wider community, and play what others have made
    • Coming to All Platforms — The editor will be included in every version of the full game: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2. Note: custom music import and sharing are PC-only

    How It Fits Into the Game

    The editor isn’t just a side mode — it’s an extension of MR. RECORDS’ entire philosophy: music is personal, and everyone has a story to tell. Whether you want to craft a precision challenge, a dreamy visual journey, or just turn your favourite track into something you can run through, the tools are there. Build something gentle and melodic, something fast and chaotic — or anything in between.

    What’s in the Demo?

    The updated Steam Next Fest demo includes:

    • The full original opening sequence and handcrafted levels
    • The complete Music Level Editor suite
    • Access to community-shared levels
    • A taste of George’s shop, his story, and the 7+ original musical journeys in the base game

  • Strike the Chord — Alpha Nomos Hits the Beat in Full Launch

    Strike the Chord — Alpha Nomos Hits the Beat in Full Launch

    The rhythm never stops. Independent studio RibCage Games has officially unleashed Alpha Nomos, their pulse-pounding rhythm-action roguelite, across Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S — with a 10% launch discount live now on Steam for the first seven days.

    What Is Alpha Nomos?

    Music isn’t just the soundtrack — it’s the law. In a world warped by melody and overrun by corrupted puppets, you play as Cello, a lone warrior fighting to restore harmony. Every swing, dodge, and ability must land on the beat to unleash maximum impact. Miss the rhythm, and you leave yourself wide open.

    “The music is the law of the world. Strike in time, and the world bends to your will.” — RibCage Games

    This isn’t just a rhythm game — it’s a hack-and-slash roguelite where timing is your sharpest weapon.

    Combat — Feel the Beat, Be the Beat

    MechanicWhat It Means
    Beat-Tied CombatAttacks, dodges, and special abilities gain power when timed perfectly to the music
    Chain CombosString perfect beats together to unleash devastating finishers
    Adjustable Timing WindowsTailor the rhythm tolerance to your skill level — welcoming for newcomers, tight for veterans
    Procedural RunsNo two playthroughs are identical — rooms, foes, and rewards shift every time you fall
    Melodic ProgressionChoose new abilities and boons between battles — build a style that sings

    The World — Puppets, Decay & Harmony

    Cello journeys through a once-beautiful realm now twisted into dissonance — where corrupted puppets dance to a broken tune. Each run takes you deeper into this fractured world, facing:

    • Twisted Puppet Foes — Each enemy type attacks with distinct rhythmic patterns to learn and counter
    • Melodic Zones — Biomes shaped by musical genres, each with its own signature soundtrack and visual flair
    • Permanent Upgrades — Even in defeat, carry progress forward to grow stronger for the next performance

    Launch Details — Grab the Beat

    Why It Stands Out

    Alpha Nomos bridges the gap between rhythm games and action roguelites — two worlds that rarely collide this smoothly. It captures the kinetic energy of Hi-Fi RUSH with the replayable, rewarding structure of a modern roguelite — where every run is a fresh chance to master the tempo.

    Most importantly, it respects all skill levels: generous timing options mean music-game newcomers can still enjoy the ride, while beat-chasing purists can narrow the window for maximum challenge.

    “Pick up your instrument. The show must go on.”

    Beats, Bullets & Blinding Lights — Afterbeat Hits Full Release On Steam With Launch Discount!

    The rhythm is deadly, the visuals are dazzling, and every beat could be your last. Developer Vitamin Games and publisher Kwalee have officially launched Afterbeat — the spectacular musical bullet-hell formerly known as Project Arrhythmia — out now on PC via Steam.

    Where Every Note Is A Deadly Threat

    Afterbeat isn’t just a rhythm game — it’s a full audiovisual assault where all things beautiful are deadly. Every flash of light, pulsing geometric shape, shifting barrier, and incoming hazard moves in perfect lockstep with the soundtrack. Surviving isn’t just about fast reflexes — it’s about reading the music, feeling the rhythm, and anticipating what comes next.

    • A cacophony of lights & sound — over 20 hand-crafted story levels, each with distinct music, visuals, and evolving patterns
    • Dodge to the beat — obstacles aren’t random; they’re choreographed to the music. Learn the rhythm, find the gaps, and glide through the danger
    • Story-driven campaign — follow researcher Anna Schroeder and supercomputer HAL as they investigate the mysterious LMNS disease plaguing the world, with branching choices and multiple endings
    • Up to 4-player local co-op — bring friends, share the chaos, and survive together — or crash in glorious synchronisation

    Endless Beats, Infinite Challenges

    Beyond the official campaign lies one of the community’s most powerful features: a fully featured level editor that lets you build your own nightmare from any music track you choose. Thousands of user-created levels are already live and counting — so the music never truly ends.

  • Beats, Dreams & Brightest Stars — K-POP Rising: Dream to Shine Lifts The Curtain On Gameplay!

    Beats, Dreams & Brightest Stars — K-POP Rising: Dream to Shine Lifts The Curtain On Gameplay!

    The spotlight is swinging open, the stage is set, and your moment has arrived. Publisher Microids and developer Old Skull Games have today unveiled the very first gameplay trailer for K-POP Rising: Dream to Shine, giving fans their clearest look yet at the rhythm-fuelled journey from wide-eyed trainee to global superstar — and it lands November 5 on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam.

    From Rehearsal Rooms To Stadium Lights

    The new trailer pulls back the curtain on the full experience, walking players through every chapter of their rise: from gruelling studio dance and vocal practice, through social media community building, all the way to commanding the biggest stages on the planet. At the heart of the game is a fusion of rhythm action and career simulation, where every beat, step, and post shapes your path to fame.

    You won’t be walking this road alone. Your best friend Nova stands by your side from day one, cheering you on, pushing you forward, and helping turn your shared dream into reality. Together you’ll start small — in your bedroom, unknown and hungry — and climb the ranks through dedication, talent, and smart choices.

    Your Star, Your Story

    Dream to Shine puts you in total control of your identity:

    • Fully customisable character — craft your look from head to toe, with endless combinations of fashion, makeup, hairstyles, and performance styles to match your unique vibe
    • Build your own group — recruit members, set your sound and image, and lead your lineup to the top of the charts
    • Grow your fanbase — manage your social presence, connect with supporters, and watch your popularity soar after every show

    The rhythm gameplay itself is the core of the challenge: nail the timing, master intricate choreography, hit every note, and refine your sense of tempo to turn good performances into legendary ones that audiences will remember forever.

    Shine Solo — Or Triumph As A Trio

    You can chase glory entirely on your own, or bring up to two friends along for the ride in 3-player online co-op. Form the ultimate dream team, coordinate your moves, and take on the world together — because K-Pop shines brightest when shared.

  • Slash, Dodge, and Drop the Beat: Alpha Nomos is Heading to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S!

    Slash, Dodge, and Drop the Beat: Alpha Nomos is Heading to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S!

    If you love high-tempo combat, rogue-lite runs, and rhythm-based action, put this on your radar! Studio RibCage Games has officially confirmed that Alpha Nomos, its ambitious rhythm-action roguelite, will be making the jump to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S following its PC release.

    The announcement arrived alongside a slick new console announcement trailer showcasing the game’s striking “puppetcore” aesthetic and beat-driven combat mechanics in action.

    What is Alpha Nomos?

    Developed by indie team RibCage Games, Alpha Nomos blends the relentless, unpredictable thrill of an action roguelite with the tight precision of a rhythm game.

    You play as Cello, navigating a surreal, melody-twisted world overrun by rogue puppets. Armed with musical instruments transformed into deadly weapons—such as the newly showcased Xyloblades—you’ll hack, dodge, and unleash combos through abandoned cities and corrupted carnivals.

    Key Features to Get Excited About

    • Beat-Synced Combat: Every swing, dodge, and special ability locks directly to the soundtrack. Staying on beat powers up your strikes and creates devastating combo opportunities.
    • Instruments as Weapons: Fight using weaponised instruments featuring live studio recordings by real musicians, giving every attack an authentic sonic bite.
    • Reactive Audio Power-ups: Collect real-time audio effects like Reverb, Flanger, and Delay that modify your combat abilities while dynamically altering the background music.
    • Live Soundtrack by Totem Warriors: The game features an evolving soundtrack helmed by Totem Warriors (led by Juan Garcia-Herreros, known for his work with Hans Zimmer’s musical group).
    • Accessible Rhythm Mechanics: Don’t stress if timing isn’t your strong suit—adjustable timing offsets and difficulty settings make the beat-driven action accessible for rhythm novices and hardcore pros alike.

    Watch the Trailer

    Check out the official console announcement trailer below to catch a glimpse of the weaponised Xyloblades and the puppet-slaying action:

    Release Info

    Alpha Nomos is set to launch on PC (Steam) first, followed closely by native console versions on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Wishlists are open now across platform digital stores!

  • Wield the Beat: Alpha Nomos Drops Stunning New Gameplay Trailer

    Wield the Beat: Alpha Nomos Drops Stunning New Gameplay Trailer

    Indie studio RibCage Games has just dropped a brand-new gameplay trailer for their highly anticipated title, Alpha Nomos. If you’ve been craving a game that seamlessly blends the pulse-pounding precision of Hi-Fi Rush with the unpredictable, addictive loop of Hades, this is the title you need to put on your radar immediately.

    Check out the fresh trailer and see why music isn’t just a backing track in this world—it’s the absolute law.

    Combat Where the Soundtrack Is Your Weapon

    In Alpha Nomos, you step into the strings of Cello, a tiny puppet adventurer navigating a vibrant, melody-twisted world overrun by rogue, corrupted puppets. A mysterious force has silenced the world’s music, and it’s up to you to hack, slash, and orchestrate absolute chaos to bring the rhythm back.

    What sets this rhythm-action roguelite apart is its uncompromising “music-as-mechanic” philosophy. The developers didn’t just bolt a rhythm meter onto a standard action game; everything lives and breathes on the beat.

    Here is what makes Alpha Nomos strike a chord:

    • Rhythm-Driven Combat: Timing your attacks to the beat unlocks devastating combos and ramps up your damage. Missing a beat? The game plays a literal wrong note on purpose to let you know you’re out of tune.
    • Live-Recorded Musical Weapons: Forget standard swords and shields. You’ll be wielding instruments (like the mighty SaXword) where every sound has been recorded live by real musicians.
    • Audio-Effect Powerups: Roguelite runs will grant you powerups based on real-world audio effects like Reverb, Flanger, and Delay. These don’t just change your combat stats—they literally alter how your attacks sound.
    • Runs That Compose Themselves: Because every weapon and power-up alters the audio landscape, every single roguelite run generates a completely unique musical track based on how you play.

    “We didn’t want rhythm bolted on top of an action game; we wanted it to be the action. Every hit, every dodge, every upgrade lives on the beat.” > — RibCage Games

    Play the Demo Right Now!

    If the trailer whets your appetite, you won’t have to wait to get your hands on it. RibCage Games has released an updated, expanded demo on Steam featuring a tighter combat loop, new enemy encounters, and a chance to test out Cello’s rhythm-driven arsenal for yourself.

    The full game is slated for a Q3 2026 launch on PC, so head over to Steam, try the demo, and get it on your wishlist today!

  • Jump, Jive, and Jazz-Smack: Spanky “Bat-a-Swing” Hits Kickstarter with a Groove-Heavy PC Demo!

    Jump, Jive, and Jazz-Smack: Spanky “Bat-a-Swing” Hits Kickstarter with a Groove-Heavy PC Demo!

    If you’ve been waiting for a game that blends the chaotic fun of 3D platformers with the irresistible, toe-tapping energy of electro swing, your time has officially come. Italian indie studio Green Flamingo has just launched the Kickstarter campaign for their debut commercial action-platformer, Spanky “Bat-a-Swing”—and it’s already shaping up to be an absolute showstopper.

    To celebrate the launch, a playable demo is live on PC right now, giving players a chance to find their tempo, grab a baseball bat, and start smacking enemies to the beat.

    Check out why this rhythm-fueled rebellion needs to be on your radar.

    Welcome to Metronopolis: Where Rhythm is Law

    In Spanky “Bat-a-Swing,” you’re dropped into Metronopolis, a vibrant city that has fallen under the absolute control of the power-hungry Mayor Metrognome. Under his tyrannical reign, every citizen, street, and trap must move and live to a strict, non-stop musical tempo.

    Enter Spanky: a short-tempered, highly inventive bat who has absolutely had it with the noise. Modifying his oversized ears into powerful, audio-reversal cannon speakers, Spanky sets out to fight sound with sound. Equipped with his trusty bat, he’s on a mission to ascend to the top of the Metrotower and put an end to Metrognome’s musical madness once and for all.

    Every Fight is a Dance

    What makes Spanky “Bat-a-Swing” stand out from standard platformers is its living metronome environment. Enemies lunge on the downbeat, platforms hop on the upbeat, and traps snap in perfect synchronisation.

    While you have the freedom to move off-tempo, the game truly shines when you sync your movements to the original electro swing soundtrack. Maintaining a steady rhythm rewards you with massive, high-scoring attack combos, turning every level into a beautifully choreographed performance.

    Features to Get Excited About:

    • Vintage 1930s Cartoon Flair: Gorgeous hand-animated, 1930s-inspired aesthetics reminiscent of timeless classics like Cuphead or classic Steamboat-era cartoons.
    • Three Diverse Districts: Explore distinct areas like Morguetone (a spooky graveyard district), Blue Vines (a jungle filled with exotic wildlife), and Nova Nubla (a high-tech industrial centre).
    • Multi-Phase Boss Battles: Fight larger-than-life district guardians—like the eight-legged DJ Cobwebb in his mausoleum club or the glittering opera-star monkey Maestro Bonobotti—in battles where tracks and phases shift dynamically.
    • Tons of Collectables: Track down hidden gold, secrets, and vinyl records to build up your playlist on the at-home, in-game music player.

    Try the Demo and Back the Project Today!

    Green Flamingo’s Kickstarter is officially open, offering a variety of excellent reward tiers for backers—ranging from digital copies and exclusive digital comics to physical boxes, figurines, and even limited-edition vinyl soundtracks.

    If you want to test your rhythm before you pledge, head over to Steam right now to download the free PC demo. It features the first four levels of the graveyard district and culminates in an epic showdown against DJ Cobwebb.

    The game is currently slated for PC, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox platforms. Don’t skip a beat—go groove through the demo, add it to your wishlist, and help fund this incredibly stylish indie gem on Kickstarter!

  • Rhythm Meets Tactics: Wardrum is Now Available on Steam!

    Rhythm Meets Tactics: Wardrum is Now Available on Steam!

    If you’ve ever wished your tactical RPGs had a bit more “thump,” then today is your lucky day. Wardrum, the highly anticipated tactical rhythm roguelite from Mopeful Games (the team behind Fashion Police Squad) and publisher Team17, has officially marched onto Steam!

    In a world where “off-beat magic” has corrupted the land, it’s up to you to lead a band of warriors and sync your strategy to the primal beat of the tribal wardrum. It’s a genre-bending mix that feels like a modern, darker evolution of the Patapon spirit, blended with deep turn-based grid combat.

    Keep the Beat, Save the Land

    The gameplay in Wardrum is all about precision. Every move—from basic attacks to powerful spells—requires you to follow specific rhythm patterns.

    • Tactical Rhythm Combat: Plan your moves on a grid, then execute them in time with the music to maximise damage and unleash critical hits.
    • A Diverse Warband: Choose from characters like the Warrior, Assassin, and Summoner, each with unique rhythm patterns and branching ability paths.
    • Roguelite Progression: Every run is randomised with different biomes (forests, swamps, deserts), hazards, and weather effects like “Rhythmstorms” that can mess with your timing.
    • Custom Rhythm Chains: Collect Rhythm Stones during your journey to forge your own custom abilities at the forge.

    Not Just for Rhythm Pros

    Worried you have two left feet? Mopeful Games has included a range of accessibility options. You can adjust the rhythm difficulty to Easy Mode, which makes the timing windows more forgiving and less punishing for missed beats, allowing you to focus more on the tactical positioning.

    Check Out the Launch Trailer

    If you want to see the game in action (and hear those banging tribal tracks), check out the official launch trailer below:

    The Verdict: Wardrum is a refreshing take on the tactical genre. The combination of “one-more-run” roguelite addiction and the visceral satisfaction of landing a “Perfect” hit on the beat makes it a must-play for indie fans this May.

    You can grab Wardrum on Steam right now. Are you ready to find your groove?
