A free-to-win rhythm game. Rhythm is just a *click* away!
The future of [osu!](https://osu.ppy.sh) and the beginning of an open era! Currently known by and released under the release codename "*lazer*". As in sharper than cutting-edge.
This is the future and final iteration of the [osu!](https://osu.ppy.sh) game client and marks the beginning of an open era! Currently known by and released under the release codename "*lazer*". As in sharper than cutting-edge.
## Status
This project is under constant development, but we aim to keep things in a stable state. Users are encouraged to try it out and keep it installed alongside the stable *osu!* client. It will continue to evolve to the point of eventually replacing the existing stable client as an update.
This project is under constant development, but we do our best to keep things in a stable state. Players are encouraged to install from a release alongside their stable *osu!* client. This project will continue to evolve until we eventually reach the point where most users prefer it over the previous "osu!stable" release.
We are accepting bug reports (please report with as much detail as possible and follow the existing issue templates). Feature requests are also welcome, but understand that our focus is on completing the game to feature parity before adding new features. A few resources are available as starting points to getting involved and understanding the project:

## Running osu!
If you are looking to install or test osu! without setting up a development environment, you can consume our [releases](https://github.com/ppy/osu/releases). You can also generally download a version for your current device from the [osu! site](https://osu.ppy.sh/home/download). Failing that, you may use the links below to download the latest version for your operating system of choice:
If you are just looking to give the game a whirl, you can grab the latest release for your platform:

## Developing a custom ruleset
osu! is designed to have extensible modular gameplay modes, called "rulesets". Building one of these allows a developer to harness the power of osu! for their own game style. To get started working on a ruleset, we have some templates available [here](https://github.com/ppy/osu/tree/master/Templates).
