In an age of muskets and smoke, the sound of the drum turned the tides of war...

Rudimentary is a rhythm-based gunpowder warfare game where drumbeats replace ui commands. Guide out-of-place infantry formations through turn-based battles by keeping time, maintaining composure, and deciding when to dig in or commit to a deadly volley. Miss a beat and the whole line breaks.

Made within 7 days as a part of Quebel's 2026 Jam.
I had a ton of fun making and publishing my first solo game, I plan on updating Rudimentary after the jam judging is complete. Thanks for playing!
