About MusicWave

Lose yourself in a sea of vibrant lights as you tap along to your favorite electronic music.

Music Wave is a challanging Rhythm game for Electronic Dance Music that uses the home row of the keyboard. Players can create, share and download custom tracks through use of third party tools. With a modern skin and beautiful effects, each song will captivate your senses.

Gameplay


Ranging from difficult to easy, players can play through various EDM songs using ten keys from the home row of the keyboard. Through pressing notes as they traverse across the activation area, players accumulate score. Missing a note or pressing the wrong key losses life whereas hitting notes in succession heals the player.

Score is accumulated from both streak and precision. Hitting notes in a row builds streak which applies to the base note value. Base note values are determined by the accuracy of the press. There are three tiers of accuracy. Players must master both precision and consistency to score high.

Custom Songs


Players can easily create, share, and download custom songs through use of third party tools. This means any song can be turned into a MusicWave track. Songs are generated from midis allowing players to use their favorite midi editing software to create tracks. For more information on creating songs, see the game website.

Career Mode


There are plans for a career mode, or standard set of songs that grow in difficulty. Unlock new songs by scoring higher in the already unlocked songs. All score in career mode goes towards your career score which can be compared against the world for a global ranking in skill.

I don't like playing MusicWave because there is a delay in pushing the buttons and so it makes the game difficult to complete a full score or obtain a high score. The fast songs are extra difficult.

Seems interesting but.. I'm somewhat of a noob and I'm sticking to 4k. The default nº of keys are far too many D: Unless that changes (which is unlikely).. it will stay uninstalled.

I liked the idea of this game when it originally came out, I was actually even in touch with the developer himself through twitter and was excited when it finally came out, but since then it has been completely abandoned, it's sad he was never able to keep working on it and abandoned it.

Игра "MusicWave" — увлекательный музыкальный ритм-проект с яркой графикой и оригинальной механикой. Игрок управляет виртуальным музыкальным инструментом, создавая мелодии в реальном времени. Отличная атмосфера, разнообразные треки и возможность кастомизации инструментов добавляют глубины. Однако сложность управления может отпугнуть новичков. Для любителей музыки и ритм-игр — отличный выбор.
