One songOne lap
Song-shaped world<br>A real cached 3D course
Curves, banking, height, speed, and the chase camera follow one complete centerline built from your song.
×2<br>Arcade scoring<br>Chains and overdrive
Collect matching colors, protect your streak, repair shields, and catch gold for invulnerable double-score runs.
Ghost signal<br>Your echoes can steer
Overdrive leaves luminous ship echoes behind. Somewhere deeper in the signal, one of them learned to drive.
Full-course HUD<br>See the music ahead
Cycle between a height profile, top-down route, minimal map, or no HUD at all when you want pure flow.
L/R<br>Headphone mode<br>Optional binaural motion
A subtle stereo effect follows musical energy. Toggle it live and dial the amount to taste.
2M<br>Tiny and native<br>Almost floppy-sized
Written in Odin with raylib, PSYCHO ships as a remarkably small native binary with no launcher attached.
