About this game

Sound Sky is a relaxing drum game. Calm music plays, you tap to the beat with two thumbs, and every hit plays a drum.
It has 100+ planets, and each planet is its own original song.
Start free, then pay once for the full game. No subscription.

No pressure

You can't fail a song. If you miss a note, the song keeps going. There is no energy meter and no countdown. One button starts a song, and there is no difficulty to pick.

It is still a challenge if you want one. The fast songs keep your thumbs busy, and five stars takes a nearly flawless run.

How it plays

It is a relaxing rhythm game set in space. You start with two ships, one for each thumb, and later songs add a third and a fourth. Notes travel toward the ships and you tap as each one arrives. The tap is the drum hit: a kick, a snare, a tom, a hi-hat or a crash. The song plays, and you play its percussion part over the top.

Every hit is judged Perfect, Early or Late. Perfect hits in a row build a combo, and the combo raises your score. Each song gives you up to 5 stars.

The first planet walks you through the drumming.

Odyssey

Odyssey is the main mode: 100+ planets in a fixed order, each with its own instrumental song.

Stars open the next planet. Each planet needs a few more than the one before, and you earn them by playing.

The first 20 planets are free.

Infinity and Saved Levels

Infinity is the endless mode. It opens when you have 15 stars, and it stays free. Every level is a new remix made from a library of 675 loops.

When you get a level you like, save it from the end screen. It goes in your Saved list so you can play it again.

The music

Every song is original music made for Sound Sky. The soundtrack is chill, and the slower songs get meditative. It is all instrumental. Music and sound by Craig Barnes.

Wear headphones if you have them.

What is free and what you pay for

Free:
- The first 20 Odyssey planets
- Infinity, the endless mode
- 3 Saved Levels

A one-time purchase:
- Every Odyssey planet after the first 20
- Unlimited Saved Levels

That is the only purchase in the game. No subscription.

If you bought the one-time pack in an earlier version of Sound Sky, you already own the full game. Tap Restore purchase on the purchase screen if it does not show up.

Good to know

- Audio Delay is a slider in Settings with a metronome. Use it to line your timing up with your headphones or speakers.
- Your progress, including stars and Saved Levels, comes back after a reinstall when Android backup is on.
- Sound Sky is a single-player music game.

I like the game but it's really being held back by the whole "energy" idea. Most games have done away with that now and its just aggravating to be stopped suddenly because I played a set allowed number of levels in a session. That should be my own decision and not cut short because I don't pay to play more. Honestly I'll just wait till it fills up and come back later if that's the case. Lame tho. Honestly

This game is SO great. The visuals are gorgeous, the music is amazing, and the fact that I can close my eyes to enjoy the music and still play the beat is blowing my mind! I love this game so much and I only just downloaded it. Update: After playing the game a while, I'd like to add that once you get to level 10 the game gets significantly more difficult. It loses the relaxing vibes and becomes rather stressful. The early levels are nice to relax to, but once you hit that point, it's done

I really love this game! I love making music but after the intro ... All I got was 3/5 stars no matter how gd and perfect I did it... It even made me waste energy to restart thinking I missed ... And it's a big cuz every lvl is just 3/5 and bx I'm sort of a perfectionist... It's really making me uneasy :/ Otherwise... It's a very original and well put together game! And a one tht I'm gonna keep. I noticed that I needed to beat hard to get 5... Sry abt tht

Thanks for the review, we're glad you like the game! We just wanted to let you know that a perfect score on Easy gives 3 stars -- in order to get 5 stars, you'll need to beat each level on Hard :)

What’s new

Daily is here. There’s a new planet every day, and everyone plays the same one. You get two tries; your best score counts. Keep a streak going and share your result.
