What it is about.

A structured look at the narrative, game feel, and traits that define this game.

Story & context

History The development started in 2016 when we found out there is no great rhythm based game on VR. The game was showcased on many places and almost 700 people tried it so far. The response is overwhelming positive. Features Unique gameplay with a great feel - Beat Saber combines the satisfying feeling of cutting with emergent perception of rhythm. Handcrafted levels & music - All the basic levels and music in the game will be handcrafted to emphasise the music rhythm. The results are incomparable to similar games with generated content. Game longevity - The game can be played in short (few minutes) sessions in quick play mode or for many hours in career mode. Game accessibility - Anyone can understand basic game principles and play the game in just a few seconds.
