About This Game

TURN RHYTHM INTO FIREPOWER

VECTORHYTHM is a neon bullet heaven where well-timed attacks charge your power, strengthen your weapons and turn every song into a fight for survival.

Move freely through the arena while your attacks are graded Perfect, Good or Mistimed. Stay on beat to build groove, amplify your firepower and tear through the swarm. Lose the rhythm and your momentum fades.

This is not a battle that merely happens alongside the music. Your timing drives the fight.

A NEON WORLD DRIVEN BY MUSIC

Battle across 20+ bundled tracks with pulsing environments, glowing geometric enemies, explosive particles and hazards that move with the music.

Face multiple bosses, each a unique enemy whose patterns turn the beat itself into a weapon.

BUILD TO THE BEAT

Survivors mode lets you shape each run through an in-depth skill tree. Combine:

• Primary, secondary and beat-powered weapons
• Defensive and evasive abilities
• Passive upgrades that transform your damage, reach and survivability
• Powerful pulse timed weapons to give you the edge against the swarm

Build the screen-clearing loadout of a bullet heaven, then push it to full power by staying in the groove.

DIFFERENT WAYS TO PLAY

ARCADE MODE is built for quick, high score runs. Choose a track, take a fixed loadout, collect power-ups and one-off weapons, then fight for a place on the leaderboard.

SURVIVORS MODE gives the build room to grow. Level up your ship, draft upgrades, create weapon synergies and survive escalating waves, hazards and bosses.  Create your own music playlist and jump into the action.

MASTER THE RUN

Choose from five difficulty levels, from Relaxed to Overload. Easier modes widen the timing windows and reduce battlefield pressure; harder modes tighten the rhythm, introduce stronger enemy combinations and reward higher scores.

Move freely. Learn the timing. Chain Perfect attacks. Master the beat.
