Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access is primarily a way to receive valuable feedback for the 1.0 release while I continue development. Even though there are songs ready and I have tested the gameplay, I think having a community of players talking about what's good/bad and what need to be changed is invaluable. ”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Around 2 months”

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

“The goal is for the full version to have the 6 tracks from Season 0 (EA), and 6 tracks for Season 1, a polished track statistics system (including number of bad, good, great, and perfect hits; percentage of notes hit per song; animated end battle; etc.), leaderboards per song and globally, and hopefully some player-recommended features.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Version 0.7 includes 6 tracks and implements all basic gameplay features, including local high scores, input selection for Xbox controller, PS5 controller, and two keyboard layouts.”

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

“There are no plans to change the price.”

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

“Every comment and review is copied and pasted into my feedback issues in my version control, so I can plan and address any issues. This means I will try my best to answer any feedback, if a feature is possible for me to deliver or not, clear communications is key in my opinion. ”

About This Game

Bushidon't is a tight, skill-first 4-lane rhythm game where pixel samurai clash to your timing. Feel every slice with responsive inputs and charts designed for clarity and mastery.

Seasons run on a fixed, predictable schedule. Every two months, a new Season adds 6 permanent tracks as a free update to the base game.

At the end of each Season, leaderboards reset. New players get a fair shot at the top, and veterans race for glory on a clean slate.

Skip a Season and you lose nothing. Come back any time and compete on both new and old tracks at your own pace.

All tracks are unlocked from day one. No grind, no gating—just jump in and play what you like.

No gameplay DLC or season pass required. Seasonal content is free; the only optional purchase is each Season’s soundtrack (OST) for $2 with no in-game effects.

This is a solo-dev project. Six tracks per Season keeps quality high and promises realistic. Over time, that adds up to a big, satisfying library.

Features:

  • Tight, responsive 4-lane rhythm gameplay

  • Reactive pixel samurai battles in the background

  • Fixed two-month Seasons with +6 permanent tracks each

  • Seasonal leaderboard resets for fair competition

  • All content unlocked from the start

  • No extra purchase required for seasonal content; optional $2 OST only
