From Brain Jar Games:

In Dead As Disco, players fight their way through a neon-drenched world where combat doubles as performance. Each encounter plays out like a choreographed music video, with enemies, bosses, and environments reacting to a constantly evolving soundtrack that blends original music with high-energy, disco-inspired tracks.
