Music-Based Procedural Generation

Crypt of the NecroDancer Over the past several months, I’ve had the pleasure of testing an alpha of Crypt of the NecroDancer , a retro styled rhythm based roguelike. A what? Crypt of the NecroDancer is a procedural dungeon crawler where the player and enemies movie on the beats of the game’s music tracks. That may sound like an eclectic mix, but it works. It works really well. You play as Cadence, a firey young woman who, against the better judgement of her elders, descends into the NecoDancer’s crypt in search of answers....

Auto-Staccato https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXefATCSpjw – Real player with 26.4 hrs in game Read More: Best Early Access Rhythm Games. I’ve changed my review and recommendation. Updated and original reviews below. [Updated review] I switched from Not Recommended to Recommended after experimenting with different audio files in Free Play mode.

Koma Awesome simulator of near after death experience, it gave me goosebumps while I was playing it – Real player with 1.3 hrs in game Read More: Best Experimental 3D Games.

RhythmSlinger Definitely a good future to this game, it does come with a bunch of different pistols and themes. Also this game definitely feels procedurally generated in that the ‘beatspheres’ respond to the type of music played or at least the bpm of the song. I got some different pop songs off youtube to play with this game and enjoyed the pacing of the beats. The tricks definitely take some time getting used to with the different pistols, I’ve found the western (orange) pistols to be the easiest in setting up for the trickshots....

Linea, the Game Best music game I’ve played since The Impossible Game . I would recommend it to anyone who likes those up-to-the-beat type of games. You get to play 4 levels (as of March 2019) with increasing difficulty. The objective is to dodge colored blocks while proceeding forward. Once you learn the core mechanics and are able to move around in different situations that’s where the fun begins, because the music plays in sync with the level, most of the time....
