PULSIVA — Neon Rhythm Game
Tap the beat. Chase the SSS.
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
42 tracks across synthwave, classical, anime, piano and arcade — 168 charts. Every hit sings in the song's key; your accuracy is the instrument. Free, fully offline.
Every tap you land becomes part of the music.
PULSIVA is a neon rhythm game built on original synthwave — plus neon reworks of timeless classics like Canon in D, Für Elise and Flight of the Bumblebee, and three more genres to switch into: anime-style openers, solo piano and 8-bit arcade. Notes radiate outward to a radial judgment ring — and the moment you hit one, the game answers in the key of the song: the cleaner your timing, the brighter the tone; the longer your combo, the thicker the harmony. Miss, and you get silence.
◆ WHY YOU'LL STAY
• Synesthetic hit feedback — every note maps to a pitch, every song has its own key and instrument voice. You're not playing along to the music. You're playing the music.
• CRITICAL judgment (±30 ms) — a maimai-style grade ladder where SSS and ALL CRITICAL are real proof of skill.
• 1,000,000-point achievement scoring — accuracy is everything; combo doesn't inflate your score. Every point means something.
• Player Rating — best-20 average, so you can watch yourself actually improve.
◆ THE CONTENT
• 42 tracks (BPM 70–196) in 5 categories:
– ORIGINALS: 13 synthwave originals
