01
Play the Pulse
Tap when the incoming pulse ring meets the fixed outer hit-zone ring around the reactor. The closer your timing, the more points you earn and the stronger your run becomes.
A D-CSIL Game Studios Game for iPhone and iPad
Your Reflexes Become the Music.
PULSE is a procedural music survival game where every tap does more than earn points. The way you play actively shapes the music unfolding around you.
Same Seed. Different PULSE.

Make every run look like you.
PULSE 2.0 brings the full rhythm-survival game to iPhone and iPad for free, with four distinct themes included: Original, Spectrum, Obsidian Prism, and Paper Waves. Pick your look, chase your best score, and share a seed to challenge a friend on the same run.
Theme Set 1 adds 15 additional full-playfield looks — from the warm character of Analog Synth to the icy atmosphere of Glacier and the glowing lines of Phosphor — bringing new colors, textures, and backgrounds to the PULSE gameplay you love. It is an optional, one-time $4.99 purchase (US, prices vary by region). No subscription.

How to Play
Instantly understandable. Difficult to master.
02
Shape the Music
Your timing profile reshapes the hat feel, fill character, and melodic confidence, while your combo reveals the seed’s bass, pads, melody, and fills.
03
Unlock Euphoria
Survive the build, endure the countdown, and release the full composition in a synchronized burst of music, light, motion, and haptics.
Musical Seeds
Every run begins with musical DNA.
A seed defines the starting rhythm, tempo, sound palette, and visual atmosphere. PULSE then combines that seed with your live performance to evolve the run.
Share the same seed with another player and you both begin from the same foundation. Your timing and play styles cause the music to branch in different directions.
Competition
Built for Game Center
