Brace Yourself Games, a studio out of Vancouver, released the excellent Cadence of Hyrule earlier this year and was met with a positive reception. By using the existing formula established by Crypt of the Necrodancer, the indie studio created a hit set within the fictional Kingdom of Hyrule.

Steve Vegvari over on our sister site had a blast with the game, where the goal was to match your actions to the beat of the music, often finding a rhythm that devastated enemies. Gameplay was simple but engaging and required you to pay attention in order to strike hard, or risk being overrun and defeated.
