Save patients with your rhythm mastery! Rhythm Doctor is a rhythm game where you heal patients by defibrillating in time to their heartbeats. Learn each patient's unique heartbeat and defeat boss viruses trying to sabotage your rhythm, all set to heart-pumping, soul-soothing music.
Hello, rhythm interns! Here’s a progress update on our development. The [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/774181/view/3120436116217743548]previous update[/url] at the end of March was a big one, with Achievements, full Japanese Localization, full gamepad compatibility and more.
Our sound designer [b]s9menine[/b] and programmer [b]Jose[/b] have been making lots of progress on Accessibility. And a lot of work is being done on the backend of the level editor to make it easier to add future new events and mechanics, thanks to lead programmer [b]Giacomo[/b] and programmer [b]huantian[/b]!
Amidst all of this, rest assured that work on the game's Story Mode is not forgotten, and you can still expect a major update to that later this year. Thank you for supporting our game!
In case you missed it, over on Twitter we have been occasionally posting comics from our PR Manager, Kyle! You can read [url=https://twitter.com/hashtag/DiariesFromMiddleseaHospital]what all the characters at Middlesea Hospital get up to while you're not playing[/url], or you can read this story about [url=https://twitter.com/RhythmDrGame/status/1528061883483160577]Paige and Ian in college.[/url] If you use Instagram,[url=https://www.instagram.com/rhythm.doctor/] we have an Instagram now[/url] and will start sharing those comics on there too!

[i]changelog hype...![/i]
Features:
[list][*] [b]New Tutorial For 3-1 Garden:[/b] People were having trouble with the level introducing multiple rows without any tutorial.
[*][b]Beatsound Pitch Variance setting:[/b] Enabling this allows Odd-numbered beats (1, 3, 5, 7) and Even-numbered beats (2, 4, 6) to have different pitches, to make the game easier to play by sound.
[/list]
Tweaks:
[list][*][b]Audio Tweaks for Blind Accessibility:[/b] We've added Train sound effects when you enter the Train. Making multiple mistakes in a row gradually decreases the "heart crack" sound volume, and restores when you hit Perfects. Many levels' beatsounds altered to better support audio-only play, especially when beats on the same row overlap.
[*][b]Intimate 2P:[/b] Hailey is now properly the Player 2 character.
[*][b]Art Exercise:[/b] Hailey doesn't show up in 1P anymore, Lucia is back from the void.
[*][b]Steinway:[/b] Change made to beatsounds.

[*][b]Panning strength setting[/b] has new maximum of 200%.
[/list]
Level Editor:
[list][*][b]Default template:[/b] Newly created levels will contain a play song event, classic row, and set theme event. purpose is to add a little help to people new to the editor. Customize the default editor template by putting your custom level at Documents/Rhythm Doctor/template.rdlevel
[*]Early Access Level Editor now properly shows unsaved level pop up when exiting with Alt+F4 and window X button.
[*]Selecting an Event type & toggling Event active/inactive now play a sound effect in the level editor.

[*]Playing many typing sounds when pasting text in CLS.
[*]Play animation event not working when not using any rows.
[*]Many Localization fixes for Japanese, Korean and Chinese.
