CuBeat

CuBeat still being developed, polished, and planned out.


I'm going to start out by saying CuBeat was a more realistic starter project of mine that I wanted to see become publicly available. My previous Unity projects have been way over my head and have taken an insane amount of time to build, and I just lost motivation.

CuBeat is not that. It's been functional and a work in progress. I've been busy revamping a bunch of things and re-planning my approach towards it. I've stumbled upon a large issue that I will be mentioning in a bit.

The important part is that CuBeat will be returning. There will be a playable game, and I'm making attempts to create a WebGL demo when released so users can try before a download.

A huge issue however has been music. CuBeat is meant to be a rhythm game, one with an editor and many levels unofficial. I wanted to use a service to help avoid issues with levels for others. Audiosurf is a good example of what I am talking about: You can generate a level based off local files, but since CuBeat plans on having a much larger variety of customization, and the days of local music is fading with streaming services, I wanted accessibility.

If anyone could direct me to a possible service to allow music usage without a user account, legal for games, and allows API usage, I would greatly appreciate it. It would further development along a lot.

The game will not be coming back out soon. It still has a lot of things to be worked on, and I'm only in the start of the revamp process. I have big plans and new additions. Some I will hint at is multiplayer and major level customization options.

I hope to see you soon.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
