DEBEATS is the first playable, craftable and obtainable decentralized music game built on Polygon, which allows you to combine musical resources with rhythmic performances to map beats and monetize your own beatmaps. DEBEATS offers music fans, artists and creators a growing library of "Copyrighted Songs" to design their own beatmaps. Each beatmap is listed in-game and played by others, generating revenue for its creator, which makes it possible to return the digital ownership to creators and herald a brand new era of music gaming. Players can interpret the songs in different ways and create multiple beatmaps of varying difficulty to extend the "user-generated content" and improve the "playability" for other users. DEBEATS leverages Creator Economy to distribute earnings among contributors. All artists and beatmap creators receive a portion of beatmap sale and other revenue. Powered by Unreal Engine 4, DEBEATS supports multiple platforms and delivers outstanding visual effects and gaming experiences.
