Rhythm Hell

Rhythm Hell is a simple rhythm game based on an animation of the same name by Louie Zong. The animation parodies the Rhythm Heaven series but reimagined as a minigame with comedically difficult polyrhythms. In the game, two seals are prompted to clap to a infinite series of increasingly complex polyrhythms displayed on the top of the screen, prompted by a cowbell cue. The seal on the right is the tutor, and will always clap correctly. The seal on the left is the player, who must press any button on their keyboard to clap along as best as they can. A timer at the bottom of the screen constantly depletes and will deplete faster if a player makes a mistake or refill if the player claps correctly. A number on the bottom right displays the current round and acts as the player's high score after the timer is completely depleted. After a certain number of rounds, the cowbell cue is muted and players must sight-read the music notation by itself, increasing the difficulty.
