Dead as Disco's Idols, modes and cosmetics are all described by the studio that made them; its stat builds are not. Brain Jar Games publishes no stat sheet, no ranking and no damage table for this game, so this page collects what its own site, Steam listing and announcements document, and marks the gaps instead of filling them.
What the Studio’s Own Material Covers
The official site and the Steam listing together cover the game’s Idols, its modes, the club-restoration loop and the cosmetic layer. None of them publish stat values, build rankings or boss damage windows. Every paragraph below traces to one of those first-party pages; where a number is missing, this page says so rather than borrowing one from a third-party guide.
The Idols
The site’s “Idols & Bosses” section gives four of the seven named characters a full biography. The other three entries repeat the game’s standard description line instead, so this page records them as named Idols and nothing more.
- Arora — “Engineered for global domination”: a next-generation virtual pop idol “customized just for you”, built on personal data “Harmony Corp promises it doesn’t have”.
- Hemlock — a former punk rocker who “sold out the revolution” and now serves as Harmony Corp’s “number one enforcer”, directing vandalism-prone fans.
- Dex — a “cybernetically enhanced guitar god hardwired into Harmony’s grid”, shredding “endlessly in the pursuit of perfection”.
- Prophet — a rapper, producer and “kingmaker” who “birthed a thousand careers” and now “buries them for Harmony Corp”.
- Dancer, Blood and Strings — named on the site, but their entries carry no biography, only the game’s general tagline.
Arenas, Modes and the Encore
The Steam listing sets out the modes directly: a “handcrafted, non-linear” Story Mode following Charlie Disco, an endless Infinite Disco mode with Friend and Global leaderboards across “dozens of Song Challenges”, and Free Play, where players “play your own music, customize enemy waves, and even build your own Challenges”. A My Music feature syncs combat to tracks from the player’s own library, and the listing states the built-in soundtrack carries “30+ songs”, including streamer-safe originals, covers and licensed tracks.
Between fights the club is a progression target in its own right: “Restore the encore” asks players to collect memorabilia to rebuild “The Encore” music club and bar, tying that restoration to the story of what happened to the band. Arenas named across the studio’s own posts and listings include the Subcity Crypt and the Dive Bar, plus Boogie Beach, which arrived with the Midsummer Update on 3 August 2026.
Customisation
The listing’s own heading for this layer is “Rockstar Fashion”: accessories, “over-the-top outfits”, dance moves and memorabilia, collected across the Idol fights and stages. In other words, customisation runs through unlocks rather than a stat build, and the studio attaches no performance values to any cosmetic it describes.
The Halloween Mini Update
The team’s Steam announcement of 14 October 2026 describes a short seasonal drop rather than a systems update: a new Trick and Treat challenge that opens once Dahlia’s level is cleared, the Disc-o’-Lantern head cosmetic for scoring well on it, the Bewitching Pumpkin 8-bit memorabilia at Stix’s bar, a relit Subcity Crypt arena and a decorated Dive Bar. The announcement names no stat changes and no codes, and the game has no redemption system.
How to Use This Page
Read it as an index of what the studio documents rather than as a prescription. Since there are no published damage tables, drop rates or rankings, the answerable questions are structural ones: which Idol an encounter belongs to, which mode you are in, and which memorabilia or cosmetic you are chasing. Anything past that — stat thresholds, relic locations, boss damage windows — is not in any first-party source we have read, and this page does not invent it.
Update Rule
We state a game fact only when the studio’s own site, its Steam listing or a dated announcement carries it, and we would rather leave a section short than fill it with inferred numbers.
