Posted: Thu Mar 31, 2011 4:40 pm Post subject: A new Rhythm Game is being made |
|
|
Just wanted to tell you guys that a new rhythm game is being made and it uses the Guitar Hero guitar peripherals. I'm not able to say too much about it right now, but I will be posting video footage of the game in action, some Q&A with the developer, etc. on my youtube channel youtube.com/starslay3r throughout the next 7 or so days.
I'm posting here about this because this game is going to need your help. This developer REALLY wants to get the rhythm game community involved with helping to make this game bigger and better, to add new things, and to share what you've discovered with other users. Because of the fact that many of you have experience dissecting the former Guitar Hero games I figured some of you may be interesting in testing your talents in a new area.
Again, I can't give out too much information, but I hope that you guys will keep an eye on my youtube and my website for some news as it'd be great to see how you guys can take this new game to the next level. Again, hold on to your Guitar Hero guitars, because you're going to need them for this one! ^_^
Thank you for taking the time to read, and sorry again for being so vague... I have to stick with their rules with how much information is released and how often. _________________

Kind of hard to get involved knowing absolutely nothing about the game, gameplay, etc. Not even a name?
I'll keep an eye on this thread though, so keep posting information when your allowed, or hell, get the devs to sign up here. |

Will the notes be rectangular or circles? Because if they're not rectangular I refuse to play. _________________

Unless the entire game is metal I will not enjoy it. _________________

If every DLC comes with a free cupcake, I might just buy this. _________________

The name is still being worked on. The release date is set for about a week from now. The game will be in it's beta version for about 3 months and that is when they'll need the most input from you guys. This is not a major game like Ubisoft's upcoming game, and everything has been hush hush, so that's why I must be so vague. I have been told that 2 days before the game is supposed to go live I can pretty much post whatever I want, but for the next few days I have to get approval before submitting videos and before saying too much.
My first post is just to get you guys in the loop and know that something that has never been done before in the rhythm game world is going to be attempted within a week or so. I've played only one game that was even slightly similar to this, and it was an arcade rhythm game. This is not another guitar hero, it's nothing like beatmania or power gig or anything else that you're probably currently playing or have played in the past.
The potential for this game is endless as they are going to be VERY community oriented, and they willbe listening to what you guys want and trying to make it happen.
I'll be posting another video within the next few days at max that will give you a more general idea of what to expect. They were supposed to release a video soon with someone you guys are pretty familiar with due to his work with Guitar Hero 1 and 2. So they're going all out... I hope you guys will be as impressed with what they came up with as I am. ^_^
Again, thanks for baring with me while I go through the vagueness of the initial stage of talking about this game. _________________

If it's not a major release, I can assume it's on the PC? Specs? Cost? Blah. Can't wait until more details are released. If the specs for it arnt too demanding, I'll definitely play it.
Also, you were on, what was it, The Ultimate Gamer or something like that, that was on SyFy, correct?
It's weird that they want to be so much under the radar if the beta for it is coming out in a week.
Also, I hope it's not anything like Power Gig. I don't think people would play it then |

I am intrigued, and I'll be following this thread. That's about all that can be said, at the moment. _________________

Looks... interesting. If it actually a game, or is your computer just acting like an amp and converting your button presses into a guitar-like sound? The screen in the background doesn't look like it's doing anything. |

LoL Man, I gotta say, I miss being on Scorehero. What's everyone up to now that there wont be any new GH songs to FC? Have you guys all pretty much moved onto Rock Band and stuff, or what? I made the move to Dance Central mostly myself, can't help my addiction to rhythm games... but I'm just curious what all of you are up to! _________________

I moved onto PowerGig; they know how to chart a song correctly! _________________
