(03/12) Upbeat
A downloadable game for Windows
A rhythm game platformer in which the platforms descend and you must keep moving, jumping and stomping to the beat in order to add more and more instruments to the backing music, until the song is complete - and then who knows what might happen? The third game in my 12 games in 12 months Dev Diary challenge.

Is there anywhere we can get the song used in Upbeat? Ian Dorsch doesn't seem to have it on his soundcloud
Super fun game, one of my favorites. Carried completely just by how good it feels to land on the beats when the music is bumping. Tough to think of where it could go in terms of content though.
It works under linux via wine (use winetricks dxvk). I guess the game engine Yahtzee uses does, so I guess all dozen games will.
