About this gameFull description from Steam
Dead as Disco puts you in the shoes of Charlie Disco, a fallen icon with one chance to reclaim the spotlight from the Idols – Charlie’s ex-bandmates and musical legends. Confront the Idols in stylish combat that syncs to every song, and survive a world torn apart by music, fame, and betrayal In this action-packed, literal Beat ‘Em Up. FIGHT TO MUSIC Attack, dodge, and take-down enemies in perfect sync with the music. Master the musical path of each Idol to unlock new talents, moves, and dances. The groove isn’t just for the show: it’s your ultimate Beat Kune Do. RECLAIM THE SPOTLIGHT Journey through a handcrafted, non-linear story of reunion, revenge, and redemption.

You are Charlie Disco, and for one night only, you can have your revenge. Confront your ex-bandmates, now the larger-than-life Idols, and uncover the secrets of the past to find out the truth of who really killed Disco. MULTI-GENRE SOUNDTRACK Featuring an original OST (streamer-safe), plus licensed bangers from past and present. ROCKSTAR CUSTOMIZATION Collect over-the-top fashion from all the stars in the world of Disco. No matter what look you choose, you’ll always leave an impression. Customize your home away from home, the Dive Bar, by collecting memorabilia from past and present, and in the process unlock the true story of what really happened to the band. PLAY YOUR OWN MUSIC! Play any song in your music library, edit music videos, and craft your own music-synced gameplay spectacle! Dead as Disco is a UGC mosh pit ready for modding.
