About This Game

CREATE POWERFUL BEATS TOGETHER IN VR

Play
Is it a musical instrument? Is it a game? Actually, it’s both. Block Rocking Beats enables you to play with music in a virtual sound studio. Choose one of three sample based instruments and start rocking the beat. Play drums, bass or take the lead and compose the main melody. Fine-tune the sound of your instruments to your liking, with various audio effects such as Reverb and Delay. You can even go freestyle and create your own instrument, with your own sounds constructed in real-time.

Record
Up to three players can join your virtual band. Play together with other music lovers from any location. Discuss ideas via voice chat while sharing the sounds you create. Use the handy timeline to help you build your complete track. Create powerful beats together in VR and rock the new world.

Share
Block Rocking Beats transforms making music in virtual reality into an amazing social experience. Connect with friends and fans via the language of music. Samples are updated on a monthly basis and royalty free, so your creations are yours to keep. Create a hit track and become famous. Will you become the first electronic music star in virtual reality?

Showtime!
To complete the virtual experience, an audio reactive visualizer adds cool visual FX to the sounds you create. VJ mode enables you to enhance your tracks and interactively change lights and animated projections on the virtual walls.

It's a cool concept, but I am "actually" a music producer and it sucks for "actual" production. However, if you want to just hit a few buttons in VR and hear some repetitive noise... this works. Don't bother trying to create anything really cool yet, just get Fruityloops Studio for that (the closest REAL production software to this). Couldn't go the online play for some reason, so I can only give comment on the single player experience. It was fun for about 15 minutes. It is, however, early access so I will gladly support the dev in hopes that it improves. Not exactly block rocking (yet), but definitely a GREAT concept and it is well done compared to the other terrible music simulators on Steam. Give it a try.

First! 8 - ) This is a virtual realty "groovebox" or "drum machine" which you will use to make another one of those Block Rocking Beats, right? ( It might remind you of a simple FL Studio, or Tenori-on. ) There is 3 person multi-player, so let's get some others on here for a world jam session? I'm also glad to see a VJ module is planned! I like to beta test or review VR / creativity apps, contact me. The output will be seen on the YouTube with my name!

I played this game for 15 minutes. Did not like it. Went to get a refund and it said I played it for 16 hours!!! Now it is saying 15 hours. Beware. I am about to launch a full complaint. It is not even about the money. It is about the scam these developers are pulling.
