7th Beat Games

Make sure your copy of Rhythm Doctor is up-to-date on Steam. When you start up the game and continue your save file, you'll notice a new hallway in Middlesea Hospital: the Physiotherapy Ward.

Quick summary of additions:

• Act 5: Enter the Physiotherapy Ward, meet our new patient, and play 4 new Day Shift levels and 2 new Night Shift levels.
• New Night Shift level added to Act 4, "4-4N Murmurs"
• New Level Editor Features: New heartbeat types and a new character seen in Act 5 have been added to the Level Editor, to use in your own custom levels!
• Visual Updates to 4-2, 4-2N, and 4-4
• Added two new options to the Settings: "Drum Mode" and "Tap to Hold."

We recommend playing Rhythm Doctor with your Steam Overlay disabled. And if you're streaming, we recommend streaming your desktop instead of the game window.

Act 5 content is unlocked after you've completed 1-XN "Super Battleworn Insomniac" and 2-1N "wish i could care less."

New update for A Dance of Fire and Ice on iOS and Google Play!

☁️ Cloud Saves

This feature saves your progress automatically in the cloud, so you can keep your progress between different devices or upon reinstalling the game. It requires an internet connection and is only able to sync on the same platform (from iOS device to another iOS device, or from Android device to another Android device).

🏆 Achievements

We've brought the same achievements from the Steam version of the game over to the mobile versions. On iOS, this uses Game Center. On Android, this uses Play Game Services. You can also restore progress using achievements.

More patch notes below.

Two more patients wander into Middlesea Hospital...!

We're doing a collab with vivid/stasis! Look forward to songs from our games making their way over in September, and Fixations Toward The Stars (by Foodbot) coming to RD in October.

We're excited! It's been a fun team-up with hajimeli.

Check out vivid/stasis if you haven't seen it, it's another narrative rhythm game, which is really cool for us to see how other developers make them. Also it's free!

Hey! We're 7th Beat Games, we're an international indie developer that makes rhythm games. We have team members scattered around the world, and some of us are habitual Cohost lurkers. We figured this would be as good a place as any to serve as a hub for our stuff, including any blog posts or announcements we have going forward.

Both of our main projects started life as short Flash games (back in those days), and grew larger over the years. A few other things they share are simple controls, a small set of core mechanics, and an in-game Level Editor that lets you make and share your own levels. If you're fans of games like Rhythm Heaven, our games might be up your alley.

In Rhythm Doctor, rhythm is represented as the heartbeats of your patients. Learn each patient's unique heartbeat and defeat boss viruses that try to sabotage your counting. It also features local 2-Player co-op as an option in Story Mode.

Available on Steam

In A Dance of Fire and Ice, rhythm is represented as rotational angles. Keep your focus as you guide two orbiting planets along a winding path without breaking their perfect equilibrium.

Available on Steam, App Store, and Google Play
