EVERYTHING IS ABOUT TO CHANGE
vivid/stasis is a rhythm-mystery hybrid game that follows the fates of four girls as they get wrapped up in a mind-bending adventure involving organizations, mysterious disappearances, and the fourth dimension. The game ties together an emotionally intense interweaving storyline with varying levels of music-based gameplay... and more...?
In the rhythm game section of vivid/stasis, you'll find yourself facing various levels of difficulty, with many options for customizability to play the game your way. Whether you're a casual rhythm gamer just here to enjoy the story, or a hardcore rhythm game legend looking to find a new kind of challenge, there's a good chance you'll find it here. Between "Opening", "Middle", "Finale", and the extra-spicy "Encore" difficulty, players will be sure to find something fun for their skill level no matter their prior experience with rhythm games.
Unlike other traditional vertical-scrolling rhythm games, vivid/stasis introduces the concept of "Bumper Notes"; notes that take up two lanes. These notes can be hit with either of the keys assigned to the lanes it falls under, giving the game a unique playability with strictly four keys, despite the six types of possible notes.
The song list of vivid/stasis features well-known and prominent artists in the music game scene (Tanchiky, Camellia, Silentroom), but also shines light on a fair amount of lesser known producers (A-Saph, Lundy, Spehs, and many many more).
On July 21st, 2022, Tsuki Tasogare went missing after not coming home before her agreed-upon curfew.
An investigation was picked up, but after less than a day of little to no progress, her sister, Saturday, finds the lack of enthusiasm for finding her sister confusing, and gets impatient.
And so, she decides to look into it herself. Alongside her friends, Allison and Kotomi, Saturday hopes to uncover the secret behind her sister's strange disappearance... and isn't quite ready for what she discovers.
vivid/stasis' story spans multiple chapters and multiple game genres to tell a coming-of-age story about living with trauma from a young age, and what makes our feelings "real".
