Song Beater: Quite My Tempo! changes
First update with new features and content is here!
4 new songs – newest single Triumphant by Axl & Arth feat. Dustin Paul, Something for Nothing by Jimmy Burney, Alundra in Videos section; This way by Scomber in Ranked songs; Retro Beats by Mem in Custom songs (if you are interested in creating your own songs, you can open this one in level editor for an inspiration :)).
Ranking system – you are now rewarded for playing ranked songs (in fit boxing mode in normal, intense or impossibru difficulty). Your total score in ranked songs determines your current rank level Steam post image
Leader glory – when you or any other player place at the top of the leaderboard, all players in the world are notified about this extraordinary achievement (so they can either pause in awe or try to beat your score right away ;))
Free Style adjustments – we are improving behaviour of individual weapons and their effects. Saw now halves the balls with higher precision, we plan to focus on blades next.
New settings and adjustments
We have listened to your feedback and added 2 new settings in the game. Let us know how they work for you or if you experience any issues, thank you! – Settings/Game/ Debris reduction – when enabled, this will reduce the amount of graphical effects and emitted particles while playing so that you could focus better on oncoming balls without too much distraction – Settings/Profile/ Spawner height – if you feel the balls are flying over your head (literally ;)) and normal recentering of the game (by holding B button) doesn't cut it for you, you can use this setting to move all the balls down (-) or up (+) by any amount of centimeters. This setting should also help if you are having wrong height/floor issues with your headset.
We have adjusted balls grid size for intense and impossibru difficulty levels to make them more enjoyable without the need to jump all over the place. :) Impossibru was shrinked from 120×120 cm to 100×100, intense was shrinked from 90×90 to 80×80. Normal, gentle and light remain the same, 60×60.
We have added more spacing between near balls for Custom songs in ModSaber format running directly from Song Beater (i.e. not edited in our level editor). The balls should now intersect significantly less. :)
There is now higher chance (50->75%) for correct letters in Letter Hunter mode, meaning if you are able to spot the letters in time, you can construct the sentences much quicker.
Bugfixes
Letter Hunter – there was one misbehaving ball on the right side with slightly rotated letters. We hired a new one for this job. Also sometimes when you hit correct letter it was ignored for the sentence, this should now be fixed.
Special Steam achievement "I see dead people" activated in game might not have been saved in your steam profile. When you run this updated version of the game, the achievement should be activated for you automatically.
Player weight (which is used to calculate calories) might not have been saved correctly in your profile. Please go to your Settings/Profile and double check.
Next update is planned for friday 7/19. We have already secured at least 2 new songs (one of them is great Minute by Dizaro) so stay tuned... If you are interested in the development of the game, have ideas, comments, please join us on our Discord server. Thank you for your support! :) https://discord.gg/2cPXfwx
