About the Game

Beatblock is a headspinning rhythm game with a simple goal: hit blocks to the beat as the paddle-wielding Cranky. The song revolves around you, and it's your job to keep up. Twist your way through a variety of tracks, hone your skills with different block types, and groove to the music!

Meet the Atom Map, your guide to the beats and blocks you'll face. Start with the Intro to pick up the basics, then twirl through four different block types to get the hang of things! Every single song has its own unique visuals and style, so there's something for everyone to enjoy.

Once you've mastered the mechanics, you'll be ready for the Challenge levels- where block types get combined, and experts are forged. Push your endurance even further in the Marathon mode against a back-to-back selection of songs and maybe discover the unknown...

Put your creative skills to work with the built-in level editor, the same tool our development team uses for the main game's levels. Chart to your favorite songs, and take advantage of the editor's robust effects & functions to let the music shine!

FEATURES

  • Explore new mechanics across 25+ songs in the Atom Map, from learning the basics to tackling challenges!

    • More songs are planned for future updates to bring the final scope to 40+ songs!

  • Flow with the music in different ways with multiple block types.

  • Tailor-made visuals for every song to set the scene (or mess with you...)

  • Customize Cranky however you want with unlockable costumes!

  • Chart a new path on your own songs with the built-in level editor!

  • Accessibility options to tweak the game and have fun on your own terms!
