'''Meet and Tweet''' (X-MAT) is a level in Rhythm Doctor. It was added as part of the Bits & Bops X Rhythm Doctor crossover event with Tempo Lab Games.

It introduces [[Syncopation]].

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxuyrJR6vT0 The track] is from the ''Bits & Bops'' original soundtrack, created by Julian "Zorsy" Sanchez.
== Synopsis ==

The player focuses on treating the Wren, [[Cockatiel]], and Canary characters, as well as the briefly appearing [[Parrot]] and [[Owl]]. Throughout the level, all five birds tweet at each other and exchange information about their lives, depicted through speech bubbles containing drawings, in a manner intended to replicate the visuals and gameplay of ''Bits & Bops's'' Meet & Tweet minigame.

The Wren speaks of how [[Hailey]] fed her a worm, and the Cockatiel replies by speaking of the ice cream that Mrs. Stevenson gave it. Then, the Wren replies by speaking of its experience in the woods, resting on a suit of armor as other birds gathered together to sing. The Cockatiel replies by speaking of its happy experience listening to [[Cole]] play guitar. Briefly, the Parrot joins in to speak of its experience flying through the hospital as the [[Janitor]] cleans up its stray feathers, unamused. The Cockatiel then speaks of its happy experience being drawn by [[Lucia]], to which the Wren replies by speaking of its experience being photographed by Hailey on a tree stump. Briefly, the Owl joins in to speak of its experience snatching away papers from a distressed [[Paige]]. The Cockatiel and Wren then speak of their shared experience, meeting someone who was confused when first seeing them; the Cockatiel met Cole in the hospital, and the Wren met a bear in the forest. Then, the Canary joins in to sing, speaking of its experience meeting with the Wren, calling back to a ''Bits & Bops'' minigame where the two have a conversation sitting near the window. The Cockatiel replies by speaking of its experience meeting three baby birds. Although never specified, it can be assumed that the Owl, Parrot, and Oriole are those three birds in question. The level concludes with all three birds speaking of their positive experience having met each other. Paige and Mrs. Stevenson are depicted happily watching the Cockatiel befriend the Canary and Wren. Ian, the Parrot, and the Oriole observe from the right, while a monkey, cat, and Bop (all from ''Bits & Bops'') observe from the left.

|H-hey...who let that bird fly through the window?
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=tired}}
|I usually keep them closed, but Paige says the patients need "fresh air." So now this happens.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=explaining}}
|A-alright, the system detected a strange heartbeat, I guess this is what we're doing now.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=tired}}
|If Paige ever tells you "Ian always misses out on the weird stuff," tell her she's super wrong.

|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=explaining}}
|Hmm...interesting. The bird has a <span style="color:#00ffff">syncopated beat</span> at the end.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=explaining}}
|Basically, the seventh pulse comes in <span style="color:#00ffff">a little earlier</span> than you'd expect it to.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Don't worry about the math, you'll get a feel for it in the music.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Let's hear what it sounds like.

|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=explaining}}
|I hope that makes sense! Let's practice defibrillating.

|Oh, I did!

|They're simply fascinating. Birds can have all sorts of heartbeats. Did you know that a hummingbird's heart beats at a speed of-

== History ==
*

== Trivia ==
* As stated by the developers of ''Rhythm Doctor'' in an update post, this level is a translation of the Meet & Tweet minigame from ''Bits & Bops''. Not only does the level's heartbeats follow closely to the beats of the original minigame, but the visual storytelling is near identical, too; a bird will speak of their own experience, and the other bird will attempt to relate or sympathize by speaking of a similar experience. For example, when the Cockatiel speaks of the joy it felt from being drawn by Lucia, the Wren attempts to relate by speaking of its experience being photographed by Hailey. This happens in the original minigame, too, where the Canary attempts to relate to the Wren's experiences with each reply it gives.
* In a Tiktok video upload by Tempo Lab Games<ref>https://www.tiktok.com/@bitsandbopsgame/video/7175407982094601473</ref>, the former version of this level includes a yellow tint row event, a common visual cue of syncopation in community.
