About

Santa Rockstar is a Christmas-themed rhythm game that lets players hit notes to holiday music. Built as an HTML5 browser app, it adds a roguelike concert mode and new characters. The update improves graphics and performance over the original. It requires no downloads, so players can jump in from any device with a web browser.

The case

Who it is for

Gamers who enjoy rhythm games and holiday themes.

What is broken today

Older versions of Santa Rockstar were outdated and only playable in a non-browser format, limiting accessibility for players wanting a quick, holiday-themed rhythm experience.

What it does about it

We rebuilt the game as an HTML5 web app, adding a roguelike concert mode, new characters, and performance improvements so players can jump in from any device with a browser.

Why not the obvious alternative

Unlike classic rhythm games that require downloads or specific hardware, Santa Rockstar runs entirely in the browser, includes a roguelike mode that adds replayability, and features updated graphics and new characters not found in the original.
