<b>Rhythm Doctor</b>'s core gameplay involves hitting a single button, often the spacebar. The game's primary mechanic is the '''[[Classic Beats|Classic Beat]]''': the patient's row will play a set of 7 equally-spaced beats, and the player must press on the 7th. The game introduces other gimmicks that alter the core behaviour of classic beats as the game continues. <!-- add something here about visual distractions and 1-x? --> | <b>Rhythm Doctor</b>'s core gameplay involves hitting a single button, often the spacebar.

Thease include things sutch as [[Row Xs]], where red X's appear on the line makeing some of the beats silent, forceing you to keep the rhythm in your head.<br> | |||
It also often uses visual distractions suctch as "glitching" the game screen or various things blocking the line of beats. <!-- add something here about visual distractions and 1-x? --> | |||
<b>Rhythm Doctor</b>'s secondary mechanic is the '''[[Oneshot Beats|SVT Beat]]''', also called a ''Oneshot'': the patient's row will play a two-beat rhythm, and the player must press on the 2nd beat. A more intuitive way to think of Oneshots is to think of it like a kick-snare pattern. Since the player has 1 beat of anticipation and no reference for when to hit, oneshots follow a ''consistent, looping pattern'' which is [[Oneshot Beats#Cueing|cued by the '''Nurse''']] beforehand. The game introduces other gimmicks that alter the core behaviour of oneshots as the game continues. | <b>Rhythm Doctor</b>'s secondary mechanic is the '''[[Oneshot Beats|SVT Beat]]''', also called a ''Oneshot'': the patient's row will play a two-beat rhythm, and the player must press on the 2nd beat.
