Short description
APods — AI-powered earbuds that read your emotions and generate music. Drawn to these songs, five ordinary people find themselves moved to action.
About this game
An overtech AI earphone rhythm game that saves your heart. Story One day, "Milo" is chosen as a closed beta tester for the latest earbuds, "APods." With AI that generates songs based on the wearer’s emotions, the "APods" captivate "Milo," leading him to finally decide to confess to "Sierra"... Gameplay The rhythm game and its controls are very standard (ESC, Space Bar, Enter, Arrow Keys). However, for directional input or movement, we recommend placing your index fingers on the F and J keys for left and right, respectively. (This helps synchronize the sense of direction between your hands and ears.) Content (Early Access) The game is composed of 4 chapters, with 3-4 episodes per chapter. Each chapter is an omnibus-style story centered around a different character. Each episode features a single rhythm game track. Soundtrack The soundtrack for each chapter is composed of genres that align with the main character's preferences. Chapter 1 : EDM Rock Chapter 2 : Rock EDM Chapter 3 : Hip-hop Chapter 4 : J-POP Chapter 5 : Epic Orchestral Features A slice-of-life youth drama that uses a wireless earphone with "Noise Canceling" as its central theme. Experience realistic soundscapes as if you were actually wearing wireless earphones and using features like "Noise Canceling." Firmware Upgrade Complete Your APods have been upgraded to 99.b. Hello!

Depending on the wearer's emotional range, the audio range may narrow or widen. 4. As the wearer's focus decreases, more power is consumed for emotion recognition. 5. If emotional deficiency is detected from the wearer, the connection may temporarily become unstable. Try it now Tap "F" and "J" to the rh…
