Your music is under attack… You must liberate it! In Symphony, you fight through levels uniquely generated by your own song collection, discover items and vanquish bosses to defeat the evil within! With Symphony, we wanted to push the limits of user-music-based gameplay and focused on two concepts: Your music creates the game Every song has a unique emotion, sound and rhythm, and we wanted the gameplay to capture that as fully as possible. When your music gets intense or calmer, so does the gameplay. Enemies appear and shoot on the beat of the music. Some weapons are music-driven. Each song has its personality and it directly translates into gameplay. Replayability In Symphony, each song in your collection not only becomes a unique level, but also provides you with an item you can equip and challenges you with score targets to reach. As you progress through the game, you unlock new difficulty levels, new items and abilities! This means you have many reasons to play your favorite song over and over. Read less

A simple shmup with OK graphics and controls, aided by building off your favorite tunes but hampered by its repetitiveness.

Review o808988t 3/5 · Jul 5, 2014

Sometimes it really feels like the gameplay is merging with music. Ships are appearing with beats and their speed and color changes with sound intensity. Makes me want to sing even to my not so favourite tracks.
But it is still a shmup. And shmups can hold my interest only for a limited time.
