Introduction

Rhythm Timeline 2 is a Rhythm Game framework built around the Unity Timeline editor. V2 is a continuation of Rhythm Timeline, and builds on all it’s good points while also improving and adding new features.

Rhythm Timeline 2 is built on the Unity Timeline package and makes creating rhythm tracks in the Unity Editor super easy. Want cinematic visuals synced perfectly to your rhythm tracks? No problem! In addition all Unity Timeline features work too, so you may create cinematic views animated by the timeline while your rhythm tracks are playing. It will be synced automatically and everything can be previewed in the Editor, no need to enter play mode to see the result. This is what sets Rhythm Timeline apart from the rest.

The Notes can easily be edited without any code, both in game and in the editor. Those who wish to take the system further can write some code to create custom notes with special functionality. Rhythm Timeline source code was refactored many times to be as simple as possible. All the source code is included!
