Pretty rad, eh? I recommend checking out some other videos with other music, so you can see how much it changes for the music. I'm interested to see how it handles songs with changing tempos and such... Bohemian Rhapsody , anyone? Discuss!

Yeah, from what I've seen it looks awesome.
Im not much of a fan of just listening to music as it is, maybe this will make me get more into music :O

Well there you go! Youtube has a cure for everything-(it gets pretty intense)

Now i'm interested as to how it would react to chiptunes.

If YMCK is any indication, not very well.

Oh, wow. That looks like the best $10 I will EVER spend.

I was curious, because it looked vaguely similar to Amplitude (

), and I liked the idea of importing your music. Glad to see it's worth the money.

This game looks awesome.
I'm not a huge fan of music either but it looks fun just coasting along to the music.
Can some one explain the colored box aspect though?, it confuses.

Farvana · 02-27-2008, 01:08 PM

It looks like there's a 6x3 grid in front of you; when you run across a colored box, it snaps into place on the grid. Get three or more of the same colored boxes to touch on that grid and you score.

This game is so fun! Currently I am seeing if classical music will be boring or super fun. So far, opera seems to have the best and craziest tracks (no surprise there).

Got around to having a play of this, it's pretty fricken cool. My only complaint is that I wish there was some kind of option to have the game do a deep scan (or something) of songs to make the level more accurately fitting the tempo/rhythm/etc. of the song. Other than that, pretty sweet.

I dunno ... I've found it's pretty accurate. Although I guess it really depends on what sort of music you're using. I've found that The Prodigy is especially good: strong beats, pulsing rhythms, and distinct instrumentation appear to make for the best tracks.

Are any of the Orange Box tracks any good?
