Rhythm Heaven Maker: Get Creatively Groovy! (Japanese: リズム・ヘブン・メーカー：創造的なグルーヴィー！ Translation: Rhythm Heaven Maker: Creative groovy!) is the first spin-off title in the Rhythm Heaven series, and the 6th one overall. The game is based heavily on Super Mario Maker, and lets players create their own Rhythm Games and Remixes, and also allows them to replace certain textures in other games. it is considered very similar to the (now cancelled) fangame "Playable Rhythm Heaven Remix Maker" (even using several sprites from the game!). It is developed by Cooki Studios in partnership with Nintendo and released on Wii U, Nintendo Switch, Cooki Zone, and PC.
It also hosts multiple online modes, something a Rhythm Heaven Game hasn't done before.
Pre-title Screen Animations[]
Since the game is almost identical to Super Mario Maker in many ways, it contains a lot of elements from the game. such as the animations before the title screen.
| Day | Event | Based On |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | Maker Tibby gets punched off the screen by a vase from Karate Man. | Karate Man |
| Tuesday | A pair of tweezers from Rhythm Tweezers comes in, gets hold of Maker Tibby, and carries him away. | Rhythm Tweezers |
| Wednesday | The blue platform from Tap Trial comes from the bottom, and Maker Tibby is carried away by it. | Tap Trial |
| Thursday | The odd metronome arrow thing from Mr Upbeat comes in and knocks Maker Tibby away, as he bounces around the screen before finally going out of view. | Mr. Upbeat |
| Friday | Maker Tibby is revealed to be a book, as the pages turn rapidly, we end up seeing a recreation of the first part of Steamboat Willie, as Friday changes into "Flickering Funnies", a reference to the Spongebob Special "Truth or Square". the book then closes, as it fades out. | Cheer Readers |
| Saturday | Munchy Monk's hand comes in out of nowhere and hits Maker Tibby on the head causing him to drop out of the screen. | Clap Trap |
| Sunday | Maker Tibby falls from heaven and gets distracted by reporter & wrestler |
