COLORMUSE
COLORMUSE — is a stylish twin-stick shooter starring two muses of grace and color — Staccato and Legato. Just as their jazz concert is about to begin, chaos erupts: out-of-tune instruments crash the stage, drowning the harmony in noise!
Swap colors on the fly, absorb matching bullets to power up your attacks, and dodge the rest in this high-octane arena shooter!
Inspired by the polarity mechanics of Ikaruga and the visceral feel of Nuclear Throne, COLORMUSE turns bullet hell into a dance — and you're leading.

did anyone else see the red and blue along with the words "colorful" divas and immediately think It was Miku and teto? TvT
same
never stop makigng atty ot iw ill ki l myself
why do i think of miku and teto upon seeing the two characters?
you're not the only one, i'm pretty sure a lot of us register long hair + blue as miku and short hair + red as teto.
Nice game, I love the art style
The art style and the music are absolutely amazing, and even though the gameplay sounded pretty simple on the surface to me, it is pretty challenging and engaging, at least in the beginning.
IDK if there will be more development in this game, but if so, I'm definitely excited to see where it will go.
Congratulations :D
The two characters inspired by musical notes fighting against instrument-shaped enemies are such a great concept!
Switching between two colors was tough at first, but once I got used to it, I realized it actually gets easier since you can just focus on one color at a time—that was really interesting.
I was so happy when I managed to clear Lunatic Mode without taking any damage after several tries!
Lots of bugs in mobile,i dont recommend do not play it in moble
i thought the blue one was miku

Peak
Clearly not boy. Ever head of the game Genshin Impact?
gacha impact? Yeah.. nope..
Gacha Impact? Never heard of it
Never heard of it? Never heard of it.
Clearly you've never played peak before
This is IKARUGA, its basicaly the same game, but easier.
but with a less generic style tho
Why do you call this a "twin stick shooter" when we don't use the second stick to shoot?
This is actually kind of hilarious. It’s twin-stick of you have no-sticks (KB/M), and single stick if you have twin sticks to work with. Hopefully the dev gets the twin stick controls going on controller setups.
Could you please elaborate on what seems to be the issue? The game uses left stick for movement, right stick for aiming - everything pretty standard to me.
"I enjoyed many aspects of the game, but the blue character design bothered me a bit in terms of appearance — I feel it doesn't serve the game's theme or fit its atmosphere. I hope there will be a slight tweakment to it in future updates. Thank you for your efforts."
this game is really fun and super easy to pick up so if your bored
everyone pls check out my new game its really sick and cool and its free
That looks really solid
Peak game, i like the bullets and uhhh the shooting.👍
I'm having so much fun with this!! I'm not great with bullet-hells, so I appreciate the continue option at the cost of score. Even though I had the option to continue, I started over a lot because I felt I could do better! The enemy patterns leaned well into the swap mechanic. The trumpets with the line of bullets was the most effective, especially in the second half when trumpets of differing colors were on screen at the same time, needing the player to swap and pass through. The visual style is also highly effective with the limited pallet, and the pale yellowish tint is a good choice as opposed to a harsh white! The banner in the top left, the score multiplier, and the bullets from Staccato and Legato changing color with them also helped a ton in peripheral visual clarity so I never had a moment where I wasn't sure which I had swapped to. I personally didn't have any confusion differing enemies and the bullets I could touch (aside from my very first round where I ran straight into the little fuzz balls haha). A great time!!!!
Very smooth gameplay. Love the designs and your art style.
Made a video
good game, some recommendations: make the first option in menus be highlighted when a controller is used; add more scrolling text bc it looks cool
AMAZING! I'm going to put this on my Arcade Machine.
