Green indicators will move from bottom to top and the player has to hit the specific sliders at the right moment to earn points and trigger further visuals.

The player uses the touch display to trigger the sliders. By tapping on one slider, it will jump to the top of the screen and will then slowly move back to it’s initial position. Multiple sliders can be triggerd at the same time. In the beta version, alternativley the player can use the 1-5 keys on the keyboard to get the same effect.
