PULSEBOUND: Rhythm Roguelite

Every weapon is an instrument. Every run is a song.

PULSEBOUND is a rhythm roguelite where your arsenal is a band. The kick sends out shockwaves, the snare fires on the backbeat, the bass circles around you, the arpeggiator fires lasers and the bells drop falling stars, all on the beat. You never aim or shoot. You only move. Your mix does the rest.

BUILD THE MIX
Collect notes, level up and pick new instruments and FX pedals, up to 5 of each in one run. Every pick changes the song you hear: add a pad and the chords bloom, add hi-hats and the groove tightens. Max out an instrument, own its FX partner, and the next drop remixes it.

BUILD UP. DROP.
Fill the hype meter, survive the build-up and let the drop wipe the floor. The arena, the lights and the music explode together.
