A vibrant dance sim RPG where Cléo must balance ambition and integrity as urban temptations threaten her soul—and every pirouette could seal her fate.
Dance as a Double-Edged Sword
Cléo’s artistry is her weapon, but also her weakness.
• Master the Rhythm of Survival: Train in six dance styles—each affecting how she navigates city life. Ballet grants elegance to sway elites, while urban moves let her escape danger.
• Perform to Survive or Perish: High-stakes gigs in neon-lit clubs reward fame… but some performances demand corrupting moves that erode her purity.
• The Soul Meter: Track Cléo’s moral decay through corrupted dance steps, shady deals, or ignoring ethical choices. Fail, and her movements become grotesque, haunting animations reflect her crumbling spirit.
The City’s Siren Song & Its Shadows
Beneath Parisian-inspired streets, beauty hides brutality.
• Metropolis Exploration Unocked by Dance: Use dance skills to charm allies (e.g., a jazz singer shares secrets after a shared tap routine) or intimidate foes (breakdance to scare off pimps).
• Temptation Quests: Accept lucrative "dark contracts" (e.g., seduce a rival dancer to sabotage them) or resist—and lose potential allies.
• Hidden Neighborhoods: Dance in certain styles to unlock underground venues, like a salsa club run by a psychic who can predict Cléo’s soul’s demise.
A Living Canvas of Emotion & Style
The game breathes through its visuals and sound.
• Dynamic Art Style: Cléo’s character design shifts subtly—her dress frays as her soul darkens; her eyes glow with corrupted dance moves.
• Original Soundtrack That Evolves: Songs change tempo based on her soul state—pure choices amplify uplifting harmonies; corrupt paths twist melodies into dissonant crescendos.
• Costume Crafting with Consequences: Design outfits using scavenged materials, but some fabrics carry hidden curses. A velvet gown might boost performances but accelerate soul decay.
No Encore: Only Endings
The final curtain falls on choices made.
• Six Branching Destiny Paths: From becoming a soulless pop icon to vanishing into the streets as a folk legend, every path is marked by irreversible decisions.
• Moral Echoes: Rejecting a bribe in Chapter 2 might trigger a life-saving ally in Chapter 5—or a betrayal when the city crumbles.
• The Final Performance: Cléo’s climactic dance determines her fate—her movements either lift the city’s despair, or reveal her soul consumed by the darkness she fought.
