New Level

We have a new level: Fixations Toward the Stars We're collaborating with indie rhythm game, vivid/stasis! A few months back, you might have seen that they added All The Times (Rhythm Doctor) and It Go (A Dance of Fire and Ice) as playable levels. This time, Saturday and Allison visit Middlesea. Fixations Toward the Stars features music by Foodbot, and pixel art by Winston. Much like us, vivid/stasis combines rhythm gameplay with characters and a narrative, so it was really fun to be able to crossover like this. Go check out the game if you haven't already!

New Level Select Ward

Middlesea Hospital has become a popular place to visit, so we've opened up a new ward. You can now enter the Basement, which is basically Ian's office. That's where you'll find the new vivid/stasis collaboration! You'll also find our crossover levels with fellow rhythm games Bits & Bops and Unbeatable. I'm sure this isn't the last time we'll see a new face, so we'll keep you updated next time we add a level here.
