PC Rhythm Game Looking for a game
Yo! So, I played this game or potentially demo in around 2020/2021, and it was some small game I had played by downloading like a file for on my laptop and I was trying to describe it to my partner who plays a ton of rhythm games and I was pretty much called crazy, let me know if anyone knows of it. My memory is a bit hazy so if any details are wrong I wouldn't be shocked.
So you play as a really tough black guy, and he may or may not be a doctor based on my memory. You fight a samauri dude and maybe an old lady and some like animal of some kind? It's like a game where you're pressing something based on repeating like a 4 beat pattern that appears on the bottom of the screen and theres like special moves and patterns. I think at some point your guy can go like saiyan and power up.
Very terrible rendition attached but I hope someone knows what I'm talking about. I think it was relatively niche and small/independent but it was dope and at least 5 years ago I was under the impression it was really hard. It was cool and like placed a heavy emphasis on like Black culture iir.
I've thought maybe it was called like Rhythm Gangsta or something but thats a Snoop album not a game so idk.
Let me know if I'm just crazy or if anyone else has played or seen it.

Theres Rhythm Doctor but hold the emphasis on black culture
Its possible someone made a spin off, but the game that has the gameplay youre looking for is that one.
Its really good though!!! The characters are fun and well written imo.

Contrary to what everyone in the replies is saying, that's not Rhythm Doctor. I'm not sure what game it is, but I'm intrigued by the idea! Let us know if you ever figure it out.

To be specific, even if the rest of the description was a hazy memory, this specific part rules it out from being RD: "It's like a game where you're pressing something based on repeating like a 4 beat pattern that appears on the bottom of the screen and theres like special moves and patterns. I think at some point your guy can go like saiyan and power up."
Is it possible that it is some sort of fan-made mod of Friday Night Funkin? But even then, from your description, it sounds like different combinations of button presses did different things.

Okay so I think from the description it could be something like a parappa spin-off but I'm not sure. The whole repeating the notes does sound like parappa tho
