Beat Slice

Stand on a neon stage and cut the music apart.

BEAT SLICE puts a glowing saber in your hand and sends a steady stream of 3D musical notes past you on both sides - crotchets, quavers, beamed pairs, open half notes - along with the gear that makes the sound: speakers, subwoofers, kick drums, snares, cymbals, a boombox, a vinyl record, a cassette, a mic and an amp.

Nothing is pre-cut. Every object is sliced along the exact plane your blade sweeps, so a lazy swing and a committed one split the same note completely differently - and the cut face flashes open as it comes apart.

FIVE WORLDS

• ORBIT - a circular stage adrift in deep space, with a banded planet below the rim
• NEON GRID - a synthwave sunset over an endless glowing grid
• AURORA - an arctic night under green and violet curtains
• SAKURA - a bright cherry-blossom garden with a torii gate on the skyline
• CANYON - warm rock spires under a desert dusk

BUILT FOR COMFORT

You stand still and turn freely. There is no artificial locomotion of any kind, the notes fly dead level from front to back, and the stage never moves under you.

ALSO INSIDE

• Eight music tracks with an in-game picker
• Eight blade colours, one or two-handed grip, and an optional second saber
• Combos, multipliers and ranks that speed the stream up as you improve
