Vote Now!

Symphonic Strife is a 2-D action platformer in which you control a classical composer creating his latest symphony. Imagine a ninja Beethoven doing parkour and dispatching scores of enemies in tempo to the music he is inventing. You have a set of free-running moves and musical attacks at your disposal. Each level features a unique composer and is set to a piece of music of his or her creation. You must climb, jump, slide, vault, roll, and fight your way through a dark environment full of obstacles and Insecurity Guards. You’re guided around the darkness only by Muses - glowing fairy-like creatures. You have a choice of path to take, but executing your moves in tempo to the music is crucial to making it through the level and its obstacles. Fight to bring your symphonic masterpiece to life!

Amnesia Fortnight is a two-week internal game jam in which the Double Fine development teams drop what they're doing and work on prototypes for new games. It was originally designed as a break away from traditionally long development cycles to make something different for a while, but in later years provided prototypes for games such as Costume Quest, Iron Brigade, Hack n’ Slash and Stacking.
