About Smash The Synth
With the red hand you have to smash the keys of the red synthesizer.
With the gray hand you have to smash the keys of the gray synthesizer.
You have to avoid mistaking hand color and synth color, and also avoid black synthesizers.
All the slimes give you points except one: the only one stealer, but in addition to the points they also activate spells, sometimes useful like turning your hands into electro that allow you to smash both red and gray synthesizers with the same hand, other times spiteful like hands become momentary ghosts or synthesizer colors change: for a complete list of what the various slimes do see the panels in the "how to play" section in the game. But for extra points it is worthy catch them all!
Each match lasts three minutes where you have to smash as many synthesizer keys as you can and grab as many slimes as possible to get the highest score and have a chance to be on the top ten list. Each game difficulty level has its own leaderboard with top ten scores.
Have fun smashing the synthesizers and squezing slimes !!!

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise Smash The Synth for its solid VR implementation, engaging 80s synth aesthetic, and functional gameplay that works well across different headsets. However, complaints center on the game's brevity with only three-minute sessions, limited content despite multiple difficulty levels and maps, and a confusing mechanic involving color-coded slimes with effects that require memorization—compounded by visibility issues for colorblind players. The leaderboard-focused design suggests the game's main appeal is competitive play rather than narrative or extensive single-player content.
[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 2[/h1] You can view my initial impressions review & gameplay here: https://youtu.be/DmJvmpUnAVg I'll give the developer credit for one thing ... he never states this is a VR music rhythm game on the Steam store page. Nope, instead you catch red & grey synth keys while 80s style synth music is playing & dodging orbs & black synth keys, but also catching slimes which come in 14 varieties, one of which you cannot grab because you'll lose points, but the others you should grab but they each have a different effect so you'll have to memorize what each differently color coded slime effect is in order to climb the top of the leaderboards. I hope that all made sense. You have 4 difficulty levels. You have 5 maps. You have several songs. Some of the songs are fire, others not so much. Smashing the synth actually sounds terrible when you do it & does not at all go with the music. This is like a VR music anti- rhythm game. Where grabbing slimes, dodging orbs, & smashing the synths has no correlation to the music and in fact, smashing the synth, will lead to a very unmelodious & quite odious sound. Game is running on the Unity Engine. On my RTX 3080, I wa…4 found this helpful
Smash The Synth is a paid VR game where you dodge stuff floating slowly toward you and hit stuff with the correct color hand. It worked on my HTC Vive and Index system, looked ok, played ok, sounded ok. Music was ok. Was sort of easy playing ( on Dancing Arena ) and the sessions ( only lasts three minutes ) are short. Tried it on the highest difficulty, not bad but everything does fly faster to you. Maybe if you hit each synth on each keys they make correct sound, i think the dev mentioned that. I guess this a one person dev game. Has a leaderboard, that is the only reason they made to play this game. I had some problem with seeing which keyboard objects are black, red or grey, but could have been my colorblindness, the maps lighting and my Vive. The game has 6 maps and plenty of music from a musician. I guess this is not a bitcoin miner and Avast AV checked it out. There is only playspace movement, if you have big enough space you can easily dodge what needs to be dodged. Maybe buy, only if you wanna support indie dev and musician. Not a "game" with long play value. I got a free key for this from the Steam Curator program. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/c…3 found this helpful
