The first letter in a sentence should be capital. :troll:

 

[Xienen]

Thanks for hijacking my thread, guys :troll:

slavek: I'm sure you'll enjoy the game, then.

 

[slavek]

Could you integrate this song into your game? haha

YouTube - Complete History Of The Soviet Union, Arranged To The Melody Of Tetris

 

[Xienen]

Haha! That song's awesome! We do have a Russian in the game and his song is quite awesome, as well =)

 

[fiftyone]

Multi-Platform is it Xienen.
Gotta start somewhere !

Just wondering...

 

[Xienen]

It will be available on the Mac at the same time as Windows, yes =)

So when you "craft" the blocks to match the beat, do you have to time the construction on the downbeat?

It looks like a cool concept.

Also, will users be able to play to their own music / beats?

 

[Xienen]

Yes, you have to time it, and the better you time it, the better your score.

Players will be able to use their own music in the Free Play mode, which will add all songs out of the game's music directory to a list automatically. This'll allow players to play custom songs on their own machine, as well as in multiplayer.

Sounds like you'll sell quite a few copies.

woah....any songs can be plugged into it O.O?
That just screams total awesomeness. I thought it was amazing before, but being able to throw whatever I want into it would just take it to the next level.

I know what I'm going to make my Russian dance to :troll:

YouTube - Soviet/ USSR Anthem [Red Army Choir]![/URL]

In all seriousness though, amazing job Xienen!

I pray I offended no one with that vid though, but it is a very dramatic song

 

[mamoo]

What movie was the bits in that from?

Also, what happens if we use '4 minutes 33'?

 

[Bobdog]

Yes, you have to time it, and the better you time it, the better your score.

What formats will it support?

That'd be the best situation for everyone; our customers and charitable partners included =)

Thank you muchly, timur!

What formats will it support?

Unfortunately, supporting MP3 format will cost me a large chunk of dosh, as it's not a free format, so I have had to stick with ogg format. There are a number of MP3 to OGG programs out there that will allow users to get their favorite songs into the game, though.

 

[Bobdog]

You might want to look into how much it would cost to support AAC; it is supposed to be free for some purposes. iTunes music is AAC and as it is currently the #1 (legal) music store, there are a lot of people with music in AAC.

 

[Xienen]

No licenses or payments are required to be able to stream or distribute content in AAC format.[34] This reason alone makes AAC a much more attractive format to distribute content than MP3, particularly for streaming content (such as Internet radio).

However, a patent license is required for all manufacturers or developers of AAC codecs.[35] It is for this reason FOSS implementations such as FFmpeg and FAAC are distributed in source form only, in order to avoid patent infringement.

I'll add that to my task list, thanks Bobdog =)
