Futurejam

Futurejam is a VR electronic music rhythm game set in 2049. You play licensed tracks by real-life house and trance artists using the HexaSynth virtual instrument, with a 5-pad setup and a 9-note marimba keyboard.

Play the music

Each track is split into layers. Missing a beat or note cuts that layer from the mix, while higher difficulty settings add more pads and keys to manage and more notes to hit. Playing well earns stars that unlock the next set of tracks. The listed ranks each award one star: S; B or A; and D or C.

Scores and leaderboards

Per-track global and local leaderboards let you compare scores with Steam players around the world or with friends in your living room. Your score depends on your streak, timing and accuracy, with bonus points for clean hits rather than spamming the pads. The post-game statistics show your streak of consecutive hits, total notes hit, timing accuracy and spam; missing a note resets your streak to zero. Timing awards 3 points for Perfect, 2 for Good and 1 for Boo.

Stage effects

Each level has its own lighting and special effects that react to your performance. Playing well increases the strobes and lasers, while mistakes stop the strobes and prompt the crowd to boo. A virtual spectator camera flies around the stage for others to watch, and can be toggled off if no one is watching.
