BUY THIS GAME IMMEDIATELY.
There we go. First play all done and sorted.
...A bit more detail you say? Oh, I suppose I can spare the time between songs to do that.
It was released on Steam today and will cost you something silly like $9.95 to buy.
It's probably the best 5 or 6 quid i've spent in a long while. The idea behind the game is simple.
It's a puzzler, where you race a craft along a road that's generated by your music. You give it an mp3/FLAC/ogg/wav/m4a/anyformatunderthesun and it will scan the song, and generate a track completely based around the sound of it.
You have several different modes of play and several different rules you can play by, like Pointman which is basically a cross between Wipeout, Rez and Klax, where the 'cars' that are travelling along the road, you can pick up and store, then put them in any order you like on a grid to score points by combining the same colour.
Game modes are seperated into three categories, being 'Casual', 'Pro' and 'Elite', where Elite is where the fun begins.
The best Elite gameplay mode is 'Ninja Mono', where you only have two types of 'car' in play. Coloured, and Grey. Hit all the coloured, avoid all the grey. Every 'car' you hit gets added to the grid, chain them together to score points.
The colour of the blocks change with the intensity of the song. Cool colours for slow pieces, redder colours for more intense parts. The deeper red the car, the more points it's worth.
The video explains it better than I can. Basically, if you like music games, and you have a half decent PC, buy it immediately.
Oh, and it was practically made for IDM.
