What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Well, we want to actually have players have a glimpse into our plan. We're testing out new features constantly, so before we exit Early Access, we want to see what players think of our game, so we can exit knowing we've satisfied our players.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Approximately a year, however could take a slight bit more, or less time.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We want to achieve a wider range of gamemodes for the player, more community-based functions such as multiplayer, voice-chat, live events such as tournaments.

We also want to improve our own range of songs and incorporating more artists with lesser-known fandoms to us, to give them an audience, you guys, and to also give you all more content way faster than before.

We also want to improve our attitude toward innovations, such as new gimmicks.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Poly Beats should be stable in terms of performance. Some Steam Features are in the game, however we still have a few we would love to implement.

OST 1 is in the game, alongside Custom Songs that will be available on Steam Workshop, and a few Extras that we gathered from external, underground artists. We want to give them recognition <3”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“No. If we say the game will be free, it will be free.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We will constantly ask you all for feedback either inside the game, or on our Discord server. these will be game-changing decisions like the game's art direction, the collaborations we try, the features we add, and more. We will also utilize Steam Beta systems consistently to gain player insight as I (Skye) the lead developer am not a hardcore rhythm game player like all of you, and want to know how you guys play the game so I can make it better for you <3”

About This Game

A NEW CONTENDER TO THE RHYTHM GAME SPACE

Welcome to Poly Beats, the 5K Rhythm Game that's all about proving absolutely nothing! Our goal? Simply to rival big games like Quaver. Think it's tough? Think again, because this is hands down the coolest 5K rhythm game around (maybe, most likely… probably. uh)

"WHAT EVEN IS A 5K RHYTHM GAME?"

You may be asking. Well, a rhythm game is a game where you do something to the beat, or, rhythm of the music, and your goal is to stay as accurate as possible with your timing.

In our case, our game is 5K, which means you have 5 inputs that could be tested for that accuracy at any given moment in a song. Usually, other games only hit for 4K or 7K (no idea why they pick 7 though. That's such an odd number.)


CUSTOMIZE… EVERYTHING?!

We were all about making Poly Beats tailor to you from the start. Personalize your experience with custom keybinds, maps, colors, and note effects. But we're not stopping there – dive into the world of Steam Workshop, where players worldwide can effortlessly share and access custom maps and themes.

STREAM!

For our casual players, we've got something special – Stream! Our in-house decoration system & runtime option, that lets map creators go wild with decorations, like shapes, light rays, and custom shaders! Crazy stuff, right? Plus, it's super easy with our in-game Decoration Editor. Just lay down the original Chart-Map (which is where all the notes and stuff are stored), and we're good to go!

INNOVATIVE GAMEMODES

Check out our 'Rags To Riches' gamemode. Receive songs from other players and aim to outdo the previous player within a set time. Climb the Poly Beats League ladder and earn those Skill Points!

RANKED DIVISIONS

If you're hungry for more competition, try Ranked Divisions. Collect Skill Points in Freeplay mode to move up divisions, from Feather III to Elite I!

TUNE PACKS + ARTIST COLLABS

We want to actually consistently give songs to our community, unlike another game... where you rely on only the community after the tutorial. We intend to make official OSTs for all our players who regularly want new challenges, and make sure to keep an eye on the ‘Extras’ pack, as this is updated regularly! <3

We're not just about our songs – we collaborate with other artists too! Get ready for diverse tune packs, and don't worry, we won't make you go broke.

GENEROUS REVENUE MODEL

Best part? Poly Beats is free! Enjoy base game content, customizations, and maps without spending a dime. But, there might be some DLCs down the road – 5th Step's gotta make a little bread, you know.

GET IT NOW, FOOL

Thanks for reading about our game! If you made it this far, I'm sure you wanna play… so what are you waiting for? Wishlist this thing, and we'll catch you on release day! :)
