''Temp Zero'' is a {{Roguelike}} twin-stick shooter/RhythmGame hybrid created by
Alexandre Kadri and Paul Hebbinckuys. The game was released on Steam on April 29, 2022.

The game has the player select a weapon, a perk, and a song, then go through multiple stages killing each enemy until they reach the boss. The songs get higher BPM, increasing the speed of enemies and hazards, which are tied to the beat. Additionally, the player can turn on challenge modifiers that add additional hazards.

!!''Temp Zero'' contains examples of:

* AchievementMockery: The "Oopsie" achievement is earned by killing yourself with the grenade launcher. "My time has come" is earned by dying in a run less than one second in.
* DifficultyByAcceleration: Songs list their BPM for a reason; enemies become faster and hazards activate earlier depending on the speed of the track, ranging from 114 to 184 BPM.
* DropTheHammer: One of the weapons, with slow swings and high damage.
* EnergyWeapon: Both used by and against you:
** One of the weapons is a laser beam that deals fast but weak damage and has a meter that starts to do one shot at a time until the player allows it to recharge.
** Some of the enemies use laser beams against you, including the final boss.
* FacelessEye: The final boss is one of these.
* FlashStep: The Blink spell, which also deals damage. The player also has a dash ability.
* FlunkyBoss: In its third phase, the boss will start to spawn {{Mook}}s to act as backup.
* GrenadeLauncher: An unlockable weapon, with bouncing grenades that damages both enemies and the player if they are not careful.
* MoreDakka: The player's starting gun fires bullets with respectable damage. The player has the ability of increasing the attack speed of their weapons, amplifying this trope even more.
* NoPlotNoProblem: No plot whatsoever; just shoot/hit enemies with weapons along to the beat.
* OrbitalBombardment: One of the spells is an Orbital Strike, that deals high damage to marked targets.
* OverlyLongTongue: The Frog Tongue spell invokes this by letting the player pull healing items [[YouWillNotEvadeMe and enemies]] towards them with a short range reach, also stunning them in place to allow for a free hit.
* ShortRangeShotgun: The shotgun has the shortest range out of the ranged weapons and splits into three shots before vanishing.
