Notes
#### I think my answer to one of the comments below may help other people to understand some of my choices for this game so I'll just paste it here, you shouldn't read that if you haven't played the game yet :
The shifting causes confusion to the player so they need to stay on rhythm the best they can to avoid that. Even if it’s a cool visual and gameplay effect, it is a punishing one. More than just making a rhythm game and adding some difficulty by shifting arrows, I wanted to give a meaning to it :
> “You’re in a dream, at the beginning of your journey towards death acceptance and you’re expressing denial. The dreams you’re gonna experience every night relate to some of your memories, but if you don’t stay on the right track (aka stay on rhythm ;)) during the process, your dreams may turn into nightmares.”
That’s how I implemented arrow shifting as a way to lose control over what you’re doing, like losing control in your life, your beliefs, your emotions, your faith, or anything that resonates for you. :D
