Core Gameplay
Rhythm Doctor's core gameplay involves hitting a single button, often the spacebar. The game's primary mechanic is the 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.
Rhythm Doctor's secondary mechanic is the 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 cued by the Nurse beforehand. The game introduces other gimmicks that alter the core behaviour of oneshots as the game continues.
