Phantasm Beat

**Note: Please take a look below for the controls. Unfortunately, we only realized our instructions + additional frames weren't linked until after the submission deadline. We're sorry for the inconvenience!

----------

You wake up in a daze to a room that’s not yours. You rub your eyes. Where are you? And what’s that thing over there?

Oh god. You panic. A monster is staring at you from across the room and you sure as hell know you don’t want to be anywhere near it. You look around to find an exit, but there's none. 

Is this a dream? Are you dreaming? You need to wake up. 

You hear your music in the background—you focus on that, take a deep breath, and count to ten.

----------

Defeat the monster to wake up! 

1. This is your rhythm ring. 

 

2. Use right-click to catch an enemy’s projectile using sound waves!

3. Your rhythm ring will turn blue to indicate that you've caught one. 

4. Then use left click to attack back! 

Note: Use the left shift to dash through the projectiles without taking damage.

Goals

We plan to finish the game by:

• improving its UX and gameplay
• implementing a tutorial
• fix the glitches and errors 

& add the features that didn't make it in in the future so any and all feedback is welcome and much appreciated!

Thank you! 😊
