Hello Music Players
We bring finally, after a long time in the works, a huge update to Musical Range. We reworked the charts for 13 songs. Added lyrics to the game, improved the punch gameplay (Visuals and feel), and improved the tutorial to be more streamlined for new players.
Be sure to join our Discord channel to keep a close eye on development as we near a full release of the game. It's also your chance to join our beta players for closed access to development builds, and you can find more content to play in the custom song channel.
