About this game

What this game is, in the developer's words

Symphorix is a survivorlike roguelite that blends ambient music with strategic pre-planning ( Not a rhythm game). Customize your Core, configure to use recurring musical cues in your favorite songs, and shape your defenses to overcome challenging waves. Unlock new ways of using your favorite songs.

We set out to create something truly unique, experimenting with new mechanics and ideas even knowing it was risky. The result is Symphorix, a game shaped by both challenge and creativity. As students from a rural village, we faced many obstacles along the way, yet through persistence and passion we made it happen.

Every beat is a weapon. Every song is a battlefield.

Symphorix takes the Roguelite Survivor genre and fuses it with the pulse of music, creating an experience where your playlist shapes the battlefield. With over 200 included tracks both instrumental and lyrical and the ability to import your own songs, no two runs are ever the same. Every song carries its own bonuses and synergy effects, letting you search for the perfect track with the buffs you want to play with.

At the heart of Symphorix lies The Core, a living engine of energy. Its power flows into sixteen sub-nodes that determine how attacks manifest from sprays and projectiles to mines and devastating lasers. Two types of nodes form your arsenal:

  • Exhaust Nodes: Fixed points that unleash energy in the form of different attack types projectiles, sprays, lasers and mines.

  • Orbital Nodes: turrets that orbit the Core and face nearest enemies automatically, or detach into drones that chase enemies across the arena before returning to formation.

Every beat drives the Core, and every note decides when that energy is released, making combat as much about rhythm as strategy.

The deeper systems of Symphorix let you turn songs into weapons of precision:

  • Synergies: Align beats to nodes to unlock combinations. Bass synergies link distant nodes, mid-tone synergies connect neighbors’ neighbors, Treble synergies form with direct neighbors, and Orbitals can sync when aligned. Each synergy multiplies effects, enhances damage, and ties into the bonuses carried by your chosen song.

  • Stats and Upgrades: Apply speed, damage, range, and more to the Core, Exhaust, or Orbital nodes. Coins  earned mid-match by collecting energy globes  unlock new nodes, notes, and permanent upgrades, expanding your options run after run.

  • Kinetic Energy: Generated by moving the Core, this special resource powers kinetic attacks and fuels slow-motion, giving you a window to dodge or strike with precision when chaos fills the screen.

Symphorix’s enemies are born from energy. Each of the twelve notes spawns its own enemy type, bringing unique attacks, movement, and death effects  from cannibal swarms to healers and retreating units. Enemies attack in escalating waves, each growing more intense until the music itself unleashes a powerful boss, a towering challenge born from the music.

As you fight, energy globes level up your Core, presenting a choice of three random upgrade cards (Common, Rare, Legendary). These cards can enhance stats, unlock new effects  with rerolls available to chase the perfect run. At the end of the match your collected energy is converted into coins, letting you invest in new unlocks for the battles ahead.

In the endless void, every being is born of raw energy, feeding on others to survive. Your Core is cast into this ecosystem, forced to fight, consume, and adapt. Only by mastering the flow of battle can you ascend and reign supreme in the void.

The cycle is simple but endlessly deep:

  • Select a song or build a playlist.

  • Configure your Core with nodes, stats, and synergies.

  • Enter the battlefield, where every beat drives the fight.

  • Adapt with upgrades, defeat enemies, and survive waves of bosses. 

  • Earn, unlock, and grow stronger, reaching your peak with every battle with non stop music as your weapon.
