Greek Beat

About

Greek Beat was the final project for the first year of college. I was tasked to make a game based on a story, myth or legend and I chose to make a rhythm game based off Ancient Greece and sirens.

Story

(From Itch.io Page) The Muses have taken your friends! They say you need to beat them in a singing contest. unfortunately, you can't sing... that's why you have a DJ set!  

Gameplay

Players must hit the DFJK keys at the right time, using the yellow judgement bar to indicate where to hit. Hitting exactly on time will result in a perfect hit, while hitting the note increasingly off-time will reduce the amount of points earned. Players must earn enough points to win the singing content, while not earning enough points or missing too many notes will lose the contest.

Hitting notes correctly in a rows will result in a combo being built, reaching 100 combo will visually change notes as an indicator alongside the combo count.

Each of the three levels introduces a new special note, and also increases in difficulty.

Finally, there's autoplay which plays the chart for you, but doesn't win or lose the level.

Special notes include:

• Black Note: Hitting this note will count as a miss.

• Scratch Note: Missing this note will not count as a miss, but will earn extra points. Press spacebar to hit.

There is also an additional secret level unlocked by completing and winning all previous levels. This level combines all special notes introduced, and is by far the hardest level.
