#About the game
What is Miko Rhythm? A four-lane arrow rhythm game with a cute-goth heart. Hit notes on a neon 3D highway or a Classic flat view while Miko, your cat-eared host, dances, cheers and roasts your misses.
When does it come out, and how much is it? It's coming soon to Steam. The release date and price aren't announced yet. Wishlist it on Steam to get notified.
What platforms? Windows PC (64-bit) through Steam.
Does it work on Steam Deck? It hasn't been verified for Steam Deck yet, so we don't claim Deck support. We'll update this page when that changes.
How many songs are there? 56 songs, each with Easy, Normal, Hard and Expert charts: 224 charts from 92 to 209 BPM. You can also make your own with the Chart editor.
Who made it? Korivash & Kittyvenom. Most songs are by Korivash and Kittyvenom, and some come from guest artists who gave permission.
Is there a story or voice acting? No voice-over. Miko talks through speech bubbles during play (Sassy, Sweet or Quiet). The game is in English.
#Playing
Can I use a controller or dance pad? Yes. Keyboard, controller and USB dance pad are all supported and fully rebindable. See Controls.
The timing feels off. What do I do? Auto-Sync adjusts your timing after each song. If it still feels wrong, run Calibration from the home menu (about 20 seconds). See Troubleshooting.
Can I fail? Yes: if your life bar empties, the song fails. Practice Mode can't fail you.
What makes a run "unranked"? Song speed other than 1×, Hidden, Sudden, Practice Mode, or a custom song. Mirror stays ranked. Unranked runs still earn XP.
Are global leaderboards live? Not yet. Scores and history are kept locally today. Global Steam leaderboards are planned.
#Unlocks and achievements
How do I unlock outfits? Play songs to earn XP. Your first clear unlocks the Witch right away, and more rewards follow roughly every 10 minutes. Most outfits are available from the start. See Progression.
How many outfits are there? 93 wardrobe entries, plus Mix & Match (12 tops × 9 skirts) and recoloring for every piece.
Does it have Steam achievements? Yes, 40. Three are hidden. See Achievements.
Are my saves backed up? Yes. Your save syncs with Steam Cloud, and the game keeps a backup copy locally. You can also export and import your save in Settings > Controls.
#Streaming and content
Can I stream it? Turn on Streamer mode (Settings > Profile & Streaming). It shows only songs marked STREAM-SAFE, the ones the developers made themselves, and hides explicit titles.
Are there explicit songs? A few song titles contain explicit language. Hide explicit songs is on by default, and Streamer mode always hides them. Miko's own dialogue is all-ages.
#Sister project
Is this related to Miko Radio? Yes. Miko is also the mascot of Miko Radio, our Discord music bot in 19,900+ servers.
