Our take on 弹幕音乐绘 ～风雷幻奏曲～ / Barrage Musical ~A Fantasy of Tempest~
Rather than treating music as background, this shoot-'em-up makes synchronized stage patterns its central structure. It also replaces a purely manual evasion expectation with a purchasable, time-limited automatic-dodging ability, creating a hybrid between rhythm play, bullet avoidance, and shop-based progression.

This rhythm shoot-'em-up presents enemy barrages synchronized with more than 20 songs.
It includes 6 stages, 3 weapons, 8 characters, and 5 difficulty levels. A coin system links collected coins to scores, lives, and spells, while suppressing enemies doubles the coins.

The game combines music-timed shooting, coin use, shop purchases, and optional automatic dodging.
