9 itemsAbout the Game
An overtech AI earphone rhythm game that saves your heart.
Story
One day, "Milo" is chosen as a closed beta tester for the latest earbuds, "APods."
With AI that generates songs based on the wearer’s emotions,
the "APods" captivate "Milo," leading him to finally decide to confess to "Sierra"...
Gameplay
The rhythm game and its controls are very standard (ESC, Space Bar, Enter, Arrow Keys). However, for directional input or movement, we recommend placing your index fingers on the F and J keys for left and right, respectively. (This helps synchronize the sense of direction between your hands and ears.)
Content
(Early Access) The game is composed of 4 chapters, with 3-4 episodes per chapter.
Each chapter is an omnibus-style story centered around a different character.
Each episode features a single rhythm game track.
Soundtrack
The soundtrack for each chapter is composed of genres that align with the main character's preferences.
Chapter 1: EDM Rock
Chapter 2: Rock EDM
Chapter 3: Hip-hop
Chapter 4: J-POP
Chapter 5: Epic Orchestral
Features
A slice-of-life youth drama that uses a wireless earphone with "Noise Canceling" as its central theme. Experience realistic soundscapes as if you were actually wearing wireless earphones and using features like "Noise Canceling."
