About the Game

Stellar Rhythm is a high-energy, experimental side-scrolling space shooter where sound and vision collide. Every element of the game is fused to the music: your ship’s weapons fire with the rhythm, enemies attack in perfect sync, and vibrant, shifting settings warp and pulse to the beat. Even your supermoves don’t just unleash destruction - they remix the soundtrack in real time, turning the battlefield into a living, breathing instrument.

Designed for maximum immersion, Stellar Rhythm runs fluidly at 120fps, wrapping players in a kaleidoscope of color, rhythm, and explosive action. With multiple game modes, deep progression, and unlockable upgrades, every run is a fresh, pulse-pounding journey through light and sound.

Created entirely by a solo developer - award-winning DJ and music producer Azido 88 - Stellar Rhythm brings decades of underground music culture and energy into a unique, experimental gameplay experience. Part shmup, part interactive music visualizer: Stellar Rhythm is a trippy audiovisual ride that pushes into new territory.

The soundtrack fuels the experience with a globe-spanning mix of underground sound: from raw drum & bass and breakbeat to hard-hitting electro, hypnotic house, thunderous dubstep, bass-heavy hip-hop, and laid-back lofi beats. Every track fuels a seamless fusion of music and gameplay.

This game uses licensed music integral to gameplay. YouTube videos may receive Content ID claims (monetization only - no blocks or strikes).
