Features
Four note types
Tap, hold, slide and flick. Simultaneous notes are linked by a crackling electric arc, so you know to hit both.
28 original songs
Lo-fi, city pop, Chinese-fusion EDM, synthwave, eurobeat, drum & bass, electro swing, festival EDM and more — sorted by BPM into slow, mid and fast.
The higher the combo, the wilder
Every hit fires light beams, shockwaves and sparks. Keep your combo and the highway turns into rainbows, spectrum wings pulse to the music and the drop explodes on screen.
An illustrated world for every song
Ink-wash bamboo forests, seaside highways, nebula space stations, glowing deep-sea jellyfish, summer festival fireworks… and the camera punches to the kick drum.
Four difficulties + daily challenges
Easy, Normal and Hard, plus Expert once you clear Hard. A new song and target rank every day, with achievements for streaks.
Level up to unlock songs

28 original songsMore on the way

FAQ
Is it free?
Yes — free to download with no in-app purchases. 5 songs are open from the start; unlock the rest with tickets earned by leveling up and clearing daily challenges.
Will there be new songs?
Yes! New songs keep coming — update the app to get them.
Notes and music feel out of sync?
Go to Settings → Auto calibrate and tap along to 12 beats, or adjust Offset on the song screen: positive if notes arrive early, negative if late. Bluetooth headphones add latency — wired headphones or the phone speaker work best.
Where is my progress saved?
Best scores, achievements, level and settings are stored only on your device and are removed when you delete the app.
Can I change the language?
It follows your device language by default; switch between 10 languages in Settings → Language.
How do leaderboards work?
On iPhone and iPad, sign in to Game Center and your best scores are uploaded automatically — your world rank shows on the song screen. Leaderboards for Android are coming later.
Which devices are supported?
iPhone, iPad and Android phones.
