Features

* RockSTAR challenge is a game that is somewhat similar to Guitar hero and o2jam.

Player red gets to choose the game mode, then the song will begin to play.

As the song begins to play, the notes you are required to play in accompaniment will drop down. When a note drops and meets the white line at the bottom, which indicates your cue to play the note, press the corresponding arrow key to hit that note.

* Players can get perfect or normal hits depending on how accurate the music note was on the white line.

Players can chain up perfect hits combos, chaining them up gives you tremendous bonus score.

Perfect Hits Chains score = Current Combo x 5

Missing a music note breaks the perfect hits chain combo.

Normal hits add +1 to score, and will not break the perfect chains.

It gets a wee-bit laggy when a lot of notes come.
I played on Beginnger, and it definitely was not beginner.
I play StepMania too, so it'll be even harder for others.
You made it really hard to get perfects too;
I know I hit a couple notes that counted as "Normal".
Good job though nonetheless;
Fix those couple things and it should be grand!

Read me - some screenshots would be nice, a bit more detail in the description, and a little more formatting of the post. What if someone has never played Guitar Hero? From your description, they probably won't have any notion of what they are supposed to do.

And get it done sooner rather than later

EDIT: An example of the kind of formatting I'm talking about (doesn't have to be exactly like this, it's just a guideline), and keep text colouring to a minimum, especially with faint colours (it's very difficult to read some colours since they blend in with the default forum style background)

aug!!! the up and down key are confusing so usually I press the wrong one. you should make the camera angled so people can see the the music notes coming. the music is played for no reason since the music notes seem to come at random. finally, pro is impossible, I was constantly pushing down all keys and still some got past.
the idea is good but the game is just too hard.

It is an interesting concept. If you could make the notes come in perfect beat with the song, it would be a lot easier. Also, you need to make it easier to get "Perfect" because it's not that easy, even at beginner level. :)

Gj getting the song file so compressed. Anyway, Get rid of collision for the wisps. Sometimes they run into each other and its quite annoying.

Was it only me that didn't hear any song? My sound settings might've been wrong. Anyways, it was quite easy since you dont get less points for playing a note when there's no wisp close. Therefore I could just spam all the buttons and make it easily.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
