About Divine Beats

Divine Beats is a music rhythm game that simulates different situations in which human civilization utilizes percussion instruments. The narrative and gameplay will stem from how people have used percussion instruments in entertainment, signaling, warfare, rituals, social gatherings, and more. It is a collection of mini-games that, like other games of this genre, provide the enjoyment of performing; on the other hand, the mini-games also serve as narratives that recreate the experience of performing for different purposes.
The story takes place in a Chinese-themed fictional realm. The main casts include a greenhorn Drummer, who has just obtained his own drum for his birthday, and a Drum Spirit, who resides within this new drum. With his own agenda in mind, the Drum Spirit forces the Drummer onto a journey. The ensuing plot is made up of episodes where the duo has to resolve situations with their drum performance.


This game will utilize a drum controller similar to the Taiko no Tatsujin arcade machines. The drum controller takes the shape of a drum and relays the drum beat data to the game engine.
