Ark Beat v1.5 Release

Version 1.5 Release : Get rid of annoying display!

Now you will not see meaningless song names in both executables if your music folder happen to be empty!
Less is more!
Keep it secret that we eventually flip the Originium Slug so that it will never walk backwards LOL)

About download

(This is copied from the previous release.)
We found that github would replace special characters with dot, so we put all files in zip QAQ.
For Ark Beat without preset music, just go and download Ark.Beat.Essentials.zip, or you could get the full experience we provide via Ark.Beat.zip

Ark Beat v1.4 Release

Version 1.4 Release : What a name! Hello Windows Defender : )

Now the game has only one name, that is "Ark Beat"! Never call me "Ark Dash" again!
We submitted the executables to Microsoft and they whitelisted us in Windows Defender! Cheers!

Ark Beat v1.3 Release

Version 1.3 Release : Keep shoulder to shoulder!

We notice that the mission_accomplished effect music may not synchronize with the ending mark, which is annoying.
Now you can expect them to pop up together!

Ark Beat v1.2 Release

Version 1.2 Release : Important fix!

Due to our negligence, the accomplished music is played before we open it!?
Also, all music devices are never closed! What a mistake!
But don't worry, we have fixed it up now. Go and enjoy it!
