## About Goth shot

Monsters come at you to the beat, and you shoot them down by hitting your inputs in time with the track. Patterns are randomly generated, so each session plays a little differently, and a round is quick enough to replay straight away.

It wraps the rhythm loop in a gothic-lolita pixel-art look. The developer recommends a phone or a controller over a keyboard, and the game warns that Bluetooth headphones can throw off the timing. A good fit for anyone who wants a snappy, stylish rhythm break.
