Update 1.7 - 2 new tracks, lyrics, Indie Pack DLC!

11 Nov

Hey there Spinners, we have an exciting update for you today!

INDIE PACK DLC LAUNCH!

Our third DLC is now available! Take a road trip through a distant, heartfelt past with the Indie Pack DLC. We’ve brought together 7 bittersweet tracks from Indie rock artists including Mei Semones, Hachiku, Blanco Tranco and more. These have been hand picked by our programmer Steve who has created a truly excellent and spinnable setlist with a unique style.

UNBEATABLE x SRXD

Two new tracks have been added as part of our crossover collaboration with UNBEATABLE, a stylish, rocking new rhythm action game where music is illegal and you do crimes!

PROPER RHYTHM by peak divide, the first song you play in the game through their tutorial and it’s a straight breakbeat banger. Just wiggle your wheel and jam the beats, and with practice, that’s all there is to it.

FOREVER NOW by peak divide & Rachel Lake, an indie rocker with emotional vocals and a catchy synth melody you’ll find yourself bobbing your head to.

The UNBEATABLE team will be picking up Twist Sound by 2 Mello and Beyond the Heart (Broken Heart Mix) by Lena Raine from our OST Vol. 1 for their setlist, so be sure to check them out when the game releases on December 9th!

LYRICS!

To coincide with the launch of our new Indie Pack DLC, we’ve developed a sweet new feature: LYRICS!

If you’ve ever wanted to sing along to Time or Hypersphere while you spin, we now have a 3D element that displays the lyrics to you phrase by phrase! It interacts with the background elements and follows your flight path, so it’s more dynamic than you’d expect!

Our goated Community Manager TheWay123 has done the hard work to craft lyrics for 34 out of the now 77 total base game tracks, including the new UNBEATABLE tracks. We've also got Raise the Black Flag, Twist Sound, Believe, This Is It and more. Go ahead and play through the base game and see which ones have them!

Lyrics can be toggled off as well, if you’d rather focus on gameplay.

You can now create lyrics yourself for your own custom tracks in the in-game editor’s Lyric Editor mode! TheWay123 has written a useful guide on how to prepare lyrics and how to place them in your customs, following the standard guidelines established for consistency throughout the game!

https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3603087253

MISCELLANEOUS

As we’re developing the mobile version, we’ve been creating features that are then backported to the PC experience; we’ve added a new Track Info Display option (in Options > Track + HUD) that displays the song name, artist, and cover art in the upper left corner, called Overlay. This is reminiscent of the way we used to present metadata before our visual revamp with Update 17, so some of you might prefer it or even feel some nostalgia from it for the early access days! Note that this option is currently unavailable in VR.

Spin you soon.

Update 1.6 - new track, Beatblock collab!

26 Sep

Hey Spinners, are you feeling cranky?

We're dropping another rhythm game crossover / collab with the extremely spinny and cute Beatblock which just released today in Early Access!

https://steamproxy.net/steamstore/app/3045200/Beatblock/

If you love to spin you will love Beatblock, it's full of insane custom visuals for each level, a sick soundtrack and a killer sense of flow.

We have added the cute as heck Cranky as a Spin skin, and the extremely hectic chiptune track Rhythmic Shield by Trina Lydia.

Here's the cute new skin!

Patch notes

Fixed a leaderboard scoring issue caused by floating point number inaccuracies

Added "cursor snapping" feature in level editor (toggleable!) This will snap your cursor to beat lines in the editor.

We've got a few more rhythm game collabs coming up, stay tuned!

May your spin be true.

Update 1.5.0 - 4 new tracks, Steam Deck upgrade, mobile teaser

3 Apr

UPDATE 1.5

Hey Spinnies, we've been chipping away at a few things simultaneously including our editor update (full mouse controls), a refactor of the editor to allow for better long audio support, some new tracks (including our first rhythm game crossover with vivid/stasis), a mobile version and some other stuff below.

The work on the mobile version in particular has allowed us to port over some nice new features to the main builds including scaling UI, a track zoom feature and vertical aspect support.

Features

4 new tracks
- We're trying out some indie tunes with Australian artist Ninajirachi. We grabbed 2 tracks 'Undo U' and 'Wayside' from her label GAGA music.
- We also have two levels as part of a track swap with the awesome peeps over at vivid/stasis. Go check the game out if you haven't already, it's a graphic novel / rhythm hybrid with some really awesome tunes.

https://steamproxy.net/steamstore/app/2093940/vividstasis/
New RemiXD charts
- All of the Monstercat RemiXD charts have been added to the game - huge thanks to all the winning charters - Programmatic, NOIN, sodapants, Crooky, Adiale, Dama, jane, C4veden, Edge and Halloween.
- Added RemiXD charts for Radio and tapestry.
Steam Deck / Linux + Switch version upgrade

- We are doing actual Linux builds now so customs should in theory be a bit easier to manage
- Deck now supports proper multi-touch
- Visual touch panels now appear over gameplay and can be customised in the options menu
- MIDI DJ gear is now available on Steam Deck (and Linux)! Get your decks out, people!
Editor refactor / update
- Longer length custom tracks are now properly supported - desync issues should be fixed.
- Improved note contrast in the timeline
- Full editor redesign is still incoming
Mobile version rework

A proper XD version of Spin on mobile is being polished and finalised. We have added some sweet new mobile-specific features to PC / Console XD version

- Added option for Scaled UI (in Accessibility > Visual)
- Added portrait mode (vertical aspect) support - you can live your SRXD arcade dreams!
- Added a new Gameplay Zoom feature (in Track + HUD > Style)

Other improvements
- Added stat tracking for "overbeats" (hitting the beat button unnecessarily)
- Improved mouse interactions in dropdown menus

May the Spin be with you.

Update 1.4.1 - 2 new tracks, endless mode teaser

30 Oct, 2024

UPDATE 1.4.1

Hey Spinsters, we've got a small update for Halloween with 2 new tracks and some skins as well as some news.

We still have our big 3 updates to do in our mind including the editor update, endless mode and some kind of multiplayer. Stay tuned (and patient!).

Halloween skins!

It's spooky season! We have a free UI palette and costumes for Jim, Lady and OST!

Halloween skins are available until Dec 11 after which they will be replaced with Christmas skins. As usual all holiday skins are available permanently for owners of the Supporter Pack DLC.

Two new tracks!

2 new tracks! We now officially have 70 tracks in the game!
- We're bringing a bit of hyperpop and J-funk to Spin with 'tapestry' by Braden Ross and 'Radio' by S087.
New RemiXD difficulty charts!
- Daydream by MrCringe
- Second Wind by Dama
- Spin Cycle (NETCAVY Remix) by jane
- The Magician (Eraser Remix) by NOIN

Endless mode

The tech for our upcoming 'Endless Mode' is working! We recently ran a demo on Twitch for our birthday bash - congrats to Metalman20 for passing the 10 minute mark, absolutely ridiculous.

We're figuring out how to gamify it at the moment as well as how to do an endlessly evolving background, but the core experience is pretty fun already - play through endless buildups and drops while the gameplay and track speed get progressively faster. It is the ultimate test of your speen skills.

We're thinking of briefly choosing powerups or bonuses during the few seconds of downtime between tracks for a bit of arcade flare, but nothing confirmed yet.

We also want to add a "zen mode" without any of the score, speed increases or challenge - a fun thing to have running at an expo or party.

Editor update mockups

Daverwob has been working on giving the level editor a much needed redesign to incorporate mouse controls and the UI style of the rest of the game.

We're going with something that resembles the side-panel menu design of the tracklist with buttons for all of the current hotkeys - and tooltips to better explain each feature as well as teach charters the hotkeys in a more obvious way.

There would be 4 side panels. The clip info editor would remain as its own separate page.

Track info
Note editing
Flight path
Hotkeys and help (links to editor guide and Discord)

Have a go and let Daverwob know via Discord[discord.com] of any features you absolutely want to have in the updated editor.

Bugs

Fixed a bug with hold note re-grab inconsistency - if you missed the start of a hold note it would only register if you re-grabbed it at the initial position (which could be incorrect)
Fixed a bug where if you skip through the result sequence it could stay displaying a slightly smaller score than what was actually achieved.

Just a heads up, we are taking a bit of time between updates to try out some new game prototypes - usually we spend about two or three weeks on these and then get back to Spin dev. Currently we're messing around with something to do with robots.

Let the Spin wash over you.

Update 1.3

9 Jul, 2024

Hey there Spinners, we've got a huge update for you today with the addition of a new and completely free VR mode, as well as the release of our Chillhop DLC and PlayStation 4 + 5 port!

You'd better believe we are reusing this GIF!

UPDATE 1.3

There's a lot of things to get through so let's go!

VR Mode

It's finally here! Jump in, have a smash and let us know what you think.

In typical SRXD fashion we have allowed a customisable experience. By default, wheel motion and taps are achieved by contacting either hand's pointer with the wheel itself. Beats are achieved by tapping outside the wheel area.

You can customise which hand does what in the VR tab in the options menu, so if you'd rather have one hand do beats only no matter where you tap, that is an option.

We have some pretty nifty and hopefully seamless aim assist which helps with jagged vertical motion. This helps you get in the groove and jam out without worrying about moving your arms too robotically.

Thanks to everyone who helped with our beta branch on Discord. This is our first time doing anything VR and we do not have access to every piece of VR hardware, so if you find any issues please let us know over on our Discord channel.

Chillhop DLC

Prepare for something quite different to the usual Spin Rhythm base game experience.

Spin, relax and study to 10 of the mellowest, good-vibes tunes to ever hit the rhythm dimension. There's also some sweet lo-fi inspired skins including a recording studio style wheel skin, an XLR cable track edge and some very cute raccoon skins for Jimmy and LadyJ.

Second Wind - L'Indecis
Daydream - Eli Way

We have also included 4 new RemiXD tracks!

Dying Scarlet
Come to Me
Sector 5
Time

Congratulations to the winning charters sodapants, Edge, Kwazi and Loosiano!

Improved UI stuff

We've polished up our UI a little. There's a slightly cleaner look to most of the options menu sliders which now use dots and better visualising of containers, as well as some fancy drop down menus.

Input mapping has been improved with combined keyboard / mouse on one page.
Some more important input options have been moved out to the main settings menu tab
'Hold to move' option has been added for gyro controls

Track select menu changes

‘Track filter’ now has its own tab
Added scratch notes to ‘performance progress’ tab

Practice mode changes

Each section now shows accuracy as well as total score progress
Practice mode sections for each track are now based on cue points
If no cue points are present defaults to evenly spaced sections as before

Tutorial polish

The tutorial now has proper glyphs for mouse controls.

Track editor

Individual background elements can now be turned on and off to your chart's desire.

Check the "toggle elements" buttons at the bottom of the left panel in edit mode. This means you can now use the Monstercat and Chillhop backgrounds without the presence of the furry overlords in the distance!

Demo update!

We've included Daydream in the demo to give the people a taste of Chillhop's style (and to run a cool competition on their Discord).

What's next?!

So what comes next? You all know we're not the best at making and sticking to timelines. The main things we have left on our personal wishlists are improving the editor to be more mouse friendly, adding an "endless mode" which could be pretty fun and some kind of simple lobby-based online multiplayer if it's possible (although it's a massive undertaking).

We also have 6 remaining tracks (including the two B-sides competition winners) to include in a future update.

Until then, hope you enjoy this big update!

As always, thanks for spinning.

VR open beta branch now available!

10 Jun, 2024

Hi there spinners!

We've just put the VR mode up on 'communitysneakpeek'.

If you haven't tried this branch before, the beta key is 'earlieraccess'.

This version also has a few other improvements, such dropdowns in the UI for multi-choice items and an improved practice mode that uses cue points again.

You can also try the two new Chillhop tracks which will be released for free alongside the DLC on July 9.

If you have feedback, good or bad, please let us know via Discord[discord.com].

VR Release Date Announcement!

15 May, 2024

VR trailer is live!

What's up Spinners!

We have officially passed certification on PlayStation! It was a long road, and doing 2 consoles (PS4 + PS5) plus an entirely new VR mode was a bit of a job, but we got it done.

Check out our trailer below (VR mode starts at 40s).

Motion controls feel great on VR. The game becomes a kind of interdimensional drumkit. You move your dominant hand into the wheel to engage it (acting as a tap and hold). Moving your hand while it's engaged moves the wheel, and your off hand can be used for beats by tapping outside the wheel.

Using the regular PlayStation gamepads you can do the usual shenanigans (motion controls, regular stick controls) and we've also added support for the touch pad. It's a bit of a gimmick, but pretty fun to try out.

Make sure to wishlist on PlayStation![store.playstation.com].

We've had a few people ask, and I wanted to officially say it here, the PC VR version will be an entirely free update released on the same day as the PlayStation version.

If you would like to be a part of the PC open beta before the Steam VR version hits, so make sure you're on our Discord[discord.gg] if you want to be a part of it.

Spin ya later.

VR Update!

13 Mar, 2024

VR tease and PS5 port update

What's up Spinners. We've been quietly chipping away at our PlayStation 4+5 port of SRXD, which includes PSVR. We're targeting June (ish) for release.

We will also be pushing out VR mode on Steam as a free update at the same time!

VR feels like the best implementation of motion controls we have achieved so far. Tracks make you feel like you're controlling a virtual drum kit, it's pretty neat!

The VR controller moves the wheel as smoothly as your hand moves, and is "engaged" when the dominant hand (which can be swapped) cuts through the target zone. This acts as a tap or a hold note, and the same happens for beats (and beat holds) in the opposite hand.

If you prefer to play in VR with regular gamepad controls and no waggle, you can do that instead.

On PlayStation we will support regular gamepad controls, gyro and even the wacky touchpad feature - the quality of this touchpad gameplay experience is questionable but hey it's there!

CHILLHOP DLC

We will also be releasing our second DLC alongside PS5 and VR which is Chillhop! Click below to listen to the playlist.

[open.spotify.com]We will be releasing 2 free Chillhop tracks into the base game collection alongside the DLC to give you a taste of their laid back vibe - Daydream by Eli Way and Second Wind by L'indecis.

Thanks as always for your patience.
