About This GameSquarewave Maker is a new take on the rhythm game genre, bringing the maker vibe to music games.Rhythm ninja or synth master, there is a place for you. Squarewave Maker is the missing link between gamers and musicians. Join the community and be part of this unique mix of game, music, and fun! Squarewave Maker’s motto is “Perform, Create, and Share.” PerformPerform first of all because one of the Squarewave Maker's game design goals is to make the player feel like they are a musical performer. The music you hear is performed live by you when you play the game. The better you play, the higher the score but also the better the music will be. Squarewave Maker transmutes your actions into music! CreateCreation is the heart of Squarewave Maker. We're providing you with music and level design tools to unleash your creativity in this sandbox of a new genre. But don't be afraid, no prior musical or level design knowledge needed. Thanks to our creative missions, you will learn to build awesome levels and music. ShareThe sharing capabilities will be the backbone of the Squarewave Maker's community. Through the Steam Workshop, you'll get access to levels, songs, and even synthesizer presets created by the other Squarewavers. Rhythmic ChallengesThe challenges you encounter in Squarewave Maker are based on rhythmic precision and velocity. Every block, trap or trigger is bound to the quantized musical grid, so each action you take when playing is precisely scored regarding your rhythmic performance. Choose your level, master it, and climb the leaderboard to become the next rhythm virtuoso! Playable MusicSquarewave Maker is blurring the frontier between game and music by interconnecting them. Squarewave Maker works as a modular system where audio elements (synthesizers, audio FXs, mixer...) and game elements can be linked together. Squarewave Maker allows you to play and build levels that are deeply synchronized with the music and that can evolve with it, giving birth to the concept of "playable music". In Squarewave Maker, your actions generate the music you hear, this means that through your play of the game you can start note sequences or individual notes, change the sound of the synthesizer, modify filters when jumping, etc... Play the music as you play the game! The Right FeelIn order to minimize the latency between input actions and the game sonic response, we built an entirely new kind of engine where all the game systems live within the audio engine. This was an important milestone in the development of Squarewave Maker because latency had to be taken care of to get a rhythm game that feels right. Playing the game with your gamepad or keyboard will feel as good and satisfying as playing music with a real-life instrument! Ready to take on other players? A lower latency also means a higher skill ceiling, which is important if you want to play competitively. Creative MissionsIn Squarewave Maker's creative missions, you will be asked to solve creative problems mixing level design and music composition. Creative missions will act as a tutorial for presenting you all the Squarewave Maker's creative tools. With the creative missions, we will also introduce you to musical knowledge (chords, arpeggios, rhythm patterns...) and synthesizer programming to make it possible for you to create crazy tones. Creative missions will teach you all the basics you need to know to experiment and implement your own rhythmic challenge ideas! Audio ToolboxSquarewave Maker comes with a complete audio toolbox for creating playable music.
