On Zero
On Zero is a Rhythm Game made with Unity for the 2026 GMTK Game Jam.
You start with 1,000,000 points and hit notes to try and reach score of 0.
There are 4 lanes, each with a number counting down at the bottom. You must hit the corresponding key right as the countdown for that lane reaches zero.
Previews for the countdowns of the next 2 notes are displayed above the main countdown for each lane and filter down when the main countdown completes, replacing the countdown below.
There is only 1 "song", but it has 2 difficulty levels. The inputs required for both levels are the identical, but the harder difficulty features countdowns that count by 2's, 3's, etc. as well as stricter perfect timing.
I didn't have enough time to do as thorough testing as I would like, so I made the judgement window pretty generous (imo).
It seems to work just as good in the browser, but you can still download it if you need to, or just want to :)

Interesting game, I found it quite hard even on normal mode! A bit more time on it and it could be a really fun game :) Well done
