Beat The Beat

A bullet hell game idea I am experimenting with that interacts with the song that is playing.
I plan to add more complex boss interactions and bullet patterns in the future.

Select a song, made by Carson Kompon, from the current list and the bullets will fire according to what is happening in the song.

HOW TO PLAY: Select a pre-analyzed song or analyze your own custom songs by following the tooltip. Collect the yellow orbs that spawn around the area to increase your score per song. If you get hit by a bullet, it will decrease your score.

CONTROLS: 
     Shift - RUN
     Space - JUMP

There is currently an experimental feature where if you navigate to the directory mentioned in the game, you can place a .mp3 file to have your own song play in the game and interact with the bullets. (Prone to breaking at the moment) But do let me know if you were able to successfully use it!

Assets are very basic at the moment as this is my first interaction with s&box and a learning process for me :)

KNOWN BUGS:
     -Occasionally Point orbs will not be able to be picked up (stop and start song if it happens)
     -Custom song upload will give error when trying to analyze song file
     -Bullets will not return to pool after prolonged play
