**VELOX** is a music-driven neon platformer where every hazard moves to the beat. Run, jump, and dash across 23 levels set to 7 royalty-free synthwave tracks — from chill 83 BPM warmups to frantic 161 BPM finales.

## Features

- **23 handcrafted levels** across 4 BPM tiers, each one themed to its track

- **Tight, momentum-based controls** — coyote time, jump buffering, variable-height jumps, wall-slide, air-dash

- **Beat-synced hazards** — lasers pulse to the downbeat, saws spin on the kick, pulse blocks phase in and out with the clap

- **Ghost racing** — your best run replays as a translucent gold DJ so you can chase your own PB

- **Star ratings** per level (1–3 stars based on time + deaths)

- **Built-in level editor** — paint with 17 tile types, save/load, playtest in-engine
