Color Muse was released in 2025. It is available on Linux, PC (Microsoft Windows) and Web browser.

The premise, in the publisher's words

COLORMUSE — is a stylish twin-stick shooter starring two muses of grace and color — Staccato and Legato. Just as their jazz concert is about to begin, chaos erupts: out-of-tune instruments crash the stage, drowning the harmony in noise! Swap colors on the fly, absorb matching bullets to power up your attacks, and dodge the rest in this high-octane arena shooter! Inspired by the polarity mechanics of Ikaruga and the visceral feel of Nuclear Throne, COLORMUSE turns bullet hell into a dance — and you're leading.
