Space Rhythm RTS.
To do so, first you'll need to develop your base by colonising other planets, acquiring resources and building ships.

The timeline on the top of the screen will help you track the beats, and the planet icons will let you know what you need for your next action.
* Later on the same day: MacOSX build.
* Even later on that same day: Web build. While it is functionally the same, I had to reimplement the bpm tracking logic to circumvent Unity's threading limitations on WebGL builds. I didn't realise until I was actually preparing the submission 🤦♀️
* 25/04/2018: Android version.
* Inkscape + Photoshop CS6.
* Bosca Ceoil + Audacity.
* Trello
