About This Demo

Tied to the Beat is a rhythm-powered arena survivor inspired by Vampire Survivors and Brotato — but with a twist:

the lyrics of each song drive the action.

As words appear on screen, they trigger real-time gameplay effects. "Fire" sets the arena ablaze. "Rain" floods the

field. "Dark" plunges you into shadow. Every song plays differently.

• 4 songs to survive across a full run
