Buckle up for a hacking rhythm game about saving the colorful world of Cyberspace! Move to the beat, groove your way through security systems, and fight the nasty virus that corrupts friendly Cyberfolk (also in local co-op!). Make your own levels using your own music or the official tunes!
Move to the Beat!
- Feel the rhythm! Move left and right with only two buttons - and pick your weapon of choice: keyboard, mouse, gamepad, or even a DDR dance pad!
- Vibe with over 20 electronic tracks by AceMan, an award-winning demoscene musician!
- Develop your own hacking strategies and stay alert! The levels are constantly changing and are filled with pesky glitches!
Save Cyberspace!
- Embark on an exciting journey with DAB and Dr Melody! Visit strange places, solve mysteries from the past, and put an end to the virus threat that endangers Cyberspace!
- Meet goofy characters from different regions of Cyberspace, who have been infected and now wreak havoc all over the place. It's your job to free them from the corruption and make friends with them!
Discover the Game!
- Embark on a journey through Cyberspace in the Adventure mode.
- Pick a song and play however you like in the Arcade mode. Awake your inner completionist and master each level in a set of challenges.
- Test your endurance against a gruelling music marathon in the Boss Rush mode.
- Feeling competitive? Go for hand-made Elite Levels and try to get to the top of the leaderboards.
- Customize your experience with accessibility options. Make your own color palette or enable easy controls, which don't require you to be so rhythm-precise!
- Unlock achievements, special keepsakes, and many cosmetic items (Rainbow!)
Get Creative and Make Your Own Levels!
- Gain access to our tools and create awesome custom levels with the in-game editor!
- Get crazy with block setups, game modifiers, or even visual effects.
- Upload your own music or use the official soundtrack!
Double the Fun!
- Join forces with your friends and experience every part of the game in local co-op! No virus will stand against such a hacking duo. It's super effective!
DAB'S NOT DEAD contains a lot of rapidly flashing lights and colors which may affect players susceptible to photo sensitivities. Stay safe!
