Dance your demons away.

UPDATE: The holidays are just around the corner, so let's turn it dancing, shall we? The free <span class="bold">Deck the Dubstep</span> DLC is a single-song pack with a track by Andross and some festive secrets hidden inside. Come on, everyone, time to shake our belly like a bowl full of jelly!

<span class="bold">The Metronomicon</span>, a rhythm-based RPG where you and your party dungeon-crawl in sync, is available now for Windows and Mac, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Disco is not dead, it just dwells in the strangest of places. Like inside neon-bathed dungeons, full of musically-empowered monsters described in the mysterious Metronomicon. Eight unlikely heroes will venture there, ready to deliver tone-death, grab as much loot as they can carry, and then awkwardly dance away to the next level. Apart from synchronizing their moves to the amazing, fully-licenced soundtrack, they can draw from a vast selection of devastating spells, buffs, and items in order to heal their teammates or nuke the rhythm-mongering creatures that stand in their way. Fix yourself an eccentric hairdo and get your groove going, because when dancing is a matter of life and death, stage fright is not an option.

Become the rockstar of a dungeon full of arrhythmic monsters waiting to out-dance you, in <span class="bold">The Metronomicon</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Hmmmm. Only point of criticism I have is that while the graphics look quite nice, the player's gaze will always be glued to the upper left of the screen.

Or am I misinterpreting gameplay here...? :|

Why upper left?

omega64: I've played Crypt of the Necrodancer for an hour or so.
I've spent 10 times that listening to the OST, I even have a t-shirt. xD
Ha, I should probably fire it up then! I've got some OSTs in heavy rotation on my playlist as well. Currently DEADBOLT is topping the charts here. :)

Seems pretty cool, especially since I've been looking for a rhythm game like that for a little while. The exclusive pre-order bonuses make me way less interested, though.

Anyway, for those that still are interested, here's a helpful video I found of the developer explaining the game and the RPG elements, in particular:

Deadbolt has a good OST?
Hope it shows up in the sale in that case.

It's fantastic. Same musician as the one behind the score to Risk of Rain - Chris Christodoulou.

Add it on my wishlist and wait until someone test it on Linux and I have money for this. ;)

It's look to be a funny game.

Well not sure if I want to buy this game.
Why ? Well, I would want to infringe copyright :P

Gamecard, First trailer > "This video contains content from SME, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds"


More seriously, put in Wishlist for the moment, too many backlog -_-;

It's not the publisher of the game that's doing that, I can tell you that much.

Can't go wrong with a Danny Baranowsky soundtrack, NecroDancer's music is bloody wonderful... though I give you an earworm warning, I've had tracks from it stuck in my head for weeks. :p

I am AWFUL at the game, I can't beat world 2, I just can't... but I can't get mad at it because of the music.

Looks interesting but not my type of game .

Well the artwork looks competent, but it really falls apart when it moves... there's almost no animation frames, it's almost all flat, miserable flash-style motion tweening. No thank you.

This looks interesting. Wishlisted for now
