Rhythm
After 16 years of rigorous training, you've finally done it. You've secured a coveted corps de ballet contract with the most celebrated ballet company in the world: the American Opera Ballet. But the work has only just begun. Perform variations, perfect your technique, and enchant the audience with your artistry to ascend to the top of the ballet world and earn the ultimate glory: the title of Prima Ballerina. Current variation: Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy Composer: Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky DEV NOTE: Thank you for playing! I'll be adding more variations over time, and I'm open to requests :)
How often do you get a musical cardgame? Draft Punks is a hybrid of a deckbuilder, a rhythm game and a music production/DJing app, where players attempt to live build the sickest set they can within a 4 minute window. Keep the crowd entertained with variety and creativity, bore them too much and they won't vibe with your set. Played entirely with the mouse or touch. Solo devved for Gamedev JS jam 2026 in 4 and a bit days with Phaser 4 and toneJS. All audio samples/loops I made myself in FL studio, art with Affinity.

Rocket Rhythm is a unique rhythm action game. Dodge waves of enemies while dashing and slamming to the beat. And when the chorus hits... WEAPONS FREE! HOW TO PLAY: Left side notes dash, right side notes slam. During WEAPONS FREE sections you also aim and fire. Gamepad (recommended) Control the ship with the left stick, dash with the left trigger or left bumper, and slam with the right trigger or right bumper. Aim with the right stick. Keyboard and mouse Control the ship with WASD or the arrow keys, dash with the left mouse button and slam with the right. Aim with the mouse. Keyboard only Activate keyboard mode on the difficulty screen. This disables WEAPONS FREE sections, and the game can be fully controlled with WASD as well as J and K for dash and slam. All keys can be reconfigured in the settings menu. The game currently features four original songs, two of them playable for free. The others can be unlocked together with two additional modes. The initial soundtrack is planned to contain ten songs, and any purchase at the current price will also unlock the remaining ones as soon as they are released. In the future, I would like to collaborate with musicians for additional song packs. Rocket Rhythm is still in active development and I'll carefully monitor all feedback, both here on Wavedash and on Discord.
The Junko posing trend as a rhythm game. Your webcam tracks your hands, circles show up around your face, and you have to get your hands into them, in the right shape, when the ring closes on the beat. Seven poses from the trend: cheek fists, wide fists, peace sign, face cover, low hands, claws up and bear ears. Three difficulties, combos, ranks and a leaderboard for each difficulty. If you don't know the poses yet, start with Learn the Poses. Runs in your browser with any webcam. Tracking happens on your device and no video is uploaded.
The club is open. The floor is yours… for 16 bars. DANCEMATCH puts up to 8 players in a neon club full of capybaras, axolotls, flamingos and more. Every 16 bars the floor flips: half the room dances while the other half roams. Nobody gets to sit out. On the floor: tap to the beat, flick for flair, and chain moves into combos. Keep your streak alive and watch your score climb. Off the floor: race across the club for lit beat tiles, grab vinyls before anyone else, and cheer your favourite dancer on the beat to pump up their score. The spotlight: be standing in a spotlight when your turn starts and it’s yours all round. Or gamble on the golden jackpot that drops in the last bar. You can’t have both. Five-minute matches. Friends or bots. Free-for-all or teams. Leaderboards, secret combos and 13 achievements to unlock. Grab your crew and get on the floor.

Just a fun little experiment. If people like it, I might do something more with this. One action per beat, step sideways, jump forward, or block projectiles. One point per tile moved, five points per coin or kill. The game ends when the song ends. Let me know what you think!

A deceptively simple rhythm game that will break you. Use any possible input to rotate left or right. Tap on the beat and hold the input to slide through a spiral. How far can you go? This is just a quick experiment using a song and chart from my upcoming game Rocket Rhythm. If people enjoy this I might work more on it and add more songs later, so please let me know!
Tap the piano squares in time as they approach your screen. The further you go the higher your score!

Piano Jumper was created for js13kGames 2026: Unicorns and Rainbows. A unicorn walks a piano keyboard seen from the side. Moving is playing: crossing from one key to the next sounds that note. Play the tune, and the rainbow above completes itself. Controls Arrow keys, or the on-screen buttons on touch. Hold Space (or JUMP) and release to leap. Hold longer to go farther. Release with no direction held to hop in place. How to Play The next note is highlighted. Blue means you can walk there. Yellow means it needs a jump. Watch the landing marker while you charge. A repeated note is a hop in place, not a step. Black keys are obstacles, not platforms. Land on one and you play a wrong note. Clear at 80% accuracy. The song always finishes — a rough run just leaves the rainbow gap-toothed, and you still get to hear your take played back. Every white key is in C major, so a fumbled note stays in tune. Only the black keys sound wrong. Features Four public domain tunes: Ode to Joy, London Bridge, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, When the Saints Go Marching In. Melody only, generated with oscillators. No audio files. The rainbow is the progress bar, the score and the pass condition in one object — one wedge per note. Its seven colours are the seven white keys of an octave. A replay of your performance after every song, wrong notes and all. The entire game is a single HTML file under 13KB. Created by WAKKIN.
