BEATKEEPERS

this is the intro to a gamemode we call "Beatkeepers", something co-op where you have to rebuild your entire game scene with everyone else. y'all better hope you can go note-for-note, as even if one person misses, you all get punished.

coming soooooon to Playtest Eclipse.

little tiny "quality-of-life" enhancement that really should've been in Poly Beats for a while - Favoriting, Searching, and Filtering maps are in for the next playtesting update.

(ignore the bugs i'll fix those tommorow)

WOOP WOOP WOOP NEW PLAYTEST ALERT 🚨

Playtest Proxima 2 is out on Steam in a closed-but-sorta-not-closed Playtest.

This one adds better Leaderboard frameworks, alongside a fully charted mod-chart on a base game level, modifiers to keep things interesting, and so so many bugfixes.

nothing new, nothing exciting, nothing out-of-the-blur, just a girl enjoying a small animation she made for her video game.

almost done with this playtest.
