Audiosurf

WOW.

This game rivals Portal in innovation and kickassery.


Don't be intimidated by the video, theres so many just chill-out modes for the game where you can just cruise along to your tracks.


I pirated it to check it out, and just bought it after playing for about 30 minutes. So worth the $10.

Audiosurf vs. Portal

I've been seeing this being promoted lots on steam lately.
Every time I see it, the more I want it.
I'll grab it sometime this weekend maybe.
Pretty soon, I'll be playing on my own music.

But rival Portal? No way.. haha \:D/

Looks like a simpler version of Amplitude on the PS2

can I play a demo of this? looks dazzling. I have no sound in this computer lab, but I'm guessing that plays a big part? The music I mean...

is steam inherently bad?

also, I'm downloading the demo right now...actually started before I saw this thread.

Not necessarily, im just old-school and like my system as clean as possible (which is why I don’t seem to suffer the same technical issues I read about on forums day in day out).

when I get a laptop, I'm never going online with it. ever.

but for the moment...this is the same pc that literally spontaneously combusted a couple days ago. if that's the only issue, meh. I've had far worse.

as for audiosurf, after playing the demo, the gameplay, itself, is a bit too simple, but also too spastic to last, but for the fact that you really can use any song, and it does a pretty good job of mapping it. the problem is that it's so unintuitive that when it comes time to go into full-on reflex mode in order to keep up (yeah, try playing 'windowlicker' even on medium), you can't. I'll wait to see if it catches on, 'cuz the popularity is going to determine whether it's worth obsessing over or not.

I am. The movement isn't the issue (actually, that part's awesome). It's the stacking method. That's what's not intuitive.
