---

Lose yourself in rhythmic delight as you jackhammer the keyboard to the beat!

Why have the lanes and keys be static? *Algorhythm* takes a spin on traditional lane-based keyboard rhythm games, with shifting lanes and changing keys to unlock an intense and dynamic new experience.

### Features

 - 6 unique note kinds to discover

 - ? songs, including ? original tracks

 - Up to 4 charts with different difficulty levels for each track

 - ? meticulously hand-crafted charts (with more being added!)

### Upcoming Features

- Just more charts (for now)




## Installation

Availble for download as an .exe file (soon).

Alternatively, download the source code and execute it yourself!

### Dependencies

- [Pygame 2.5](https://www.pygame.org)

- [Pillow](https://pypi.org/project/pillow)

- [Librosa 0.10](https://librosa.org/doc/latest/index.html)

### Requirements

QWERTY keyboard recommended. Mouse or touch required for navigation (keyboard navigation support is in development).

The following keys are used in charts:

- A–Z letters

- 4 arrow keys

- Space bar

- Enter key

- Backspace (optional, only for Mastery Mode)




## Credits

This was entirely a solo project, with the intention of challenging myself to finally create a proper, finished game!

### Game

- Much inspired by [*Phigros*](https://phigros.fandom.com/wiki/Phigros_Wiki), as well as various other rhythm games ([*Ryceam*](https://ryceam.fandom.com/wiki/Ryceam_Wiki), [*rote2*](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1735670/roteroteSquare)).

### Code

- Coded entirely by yours truly, from scratch.

- Made in [Python 3.11](https://www.python.org) with [Pygame 2.5](https://www.pygame.org).

### Assets

- Cover art for some tracks were generated using [DALL-E 3](https://openai.com/dall-e-3).

### Fonts

- [Geologica](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Geologica) (available on Google Fonts)

### Sounds

- Only the tracks in the *Xenos* series are by other artists.

- All other soundtracks and sound effects were created by yours truly, in [GarageBand](https://www.apple.com/ios/garageband) (iPadOS).




## Charts

In the unlikely scenario that you would like to create a chart... it is not easy, but would be hugely appreciated. See [Charting](docs/charting.md).
