Synthwave Show/Dawn

Game premise and mechanics

Synthwave Show/Dawn is a third-person hero shooter set in a neon-drenched cyberpunk megacity called Metronum. Players engage in 4v4 matches, capturing the enemy base while executing attacks synchronized with music beats. Each player's character, referred to as a "star," has unique abilities influenced by their musical style. Remaining on rhythm enhances damage output and charges ultimate abilities, while missing the beat can lead to strategic disadvantages.

Combat and gameplay

In the game, you will face off against an opposing team composed of eight stars in various formats, including 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, and 4v4. The main objective is to seize control of the enemy base while managing your attacks and abilities according to the rhythm. The combat system emphasizes timing: performing actions in sync with the music maximizes damage dealt and speeds up the ultimate ability recharge.
