With these new game mechanic, that lets to play multiple notes with one simple movement, we now feel that all base game-play elements are in the game. You can shoot, punch, bend, do vibratos, play dead notes, smash the notes, play chords. So all these available meteor types, allow for a lot of experimentation and exploration. We feel that playing music in VR is now not only interesting and simple, but really fun and with a lot of depth. This update also brings a change to the tutorial system. We've split the tutorial in two, Basic and Advanced. The goal is to get players to playing songs as soon as possible. The first tutorial covers the basics, shooting, punching, the whiplash.…

This allows you to play fuller and richer sounds. Power Shots can the me manipulated just like any notes, sustain, bends, vibratos, punch note. We also updated the tutorial with a new phase to introduce the Power Shot. As a consequence, all players must replay through the tutorial before being able to access the Main Menu.

• Update 1.9.0 Alpha - 17 August 2023

  Hello! We are forced to push an update earlier than we'd like to the Public Branch. We need to keep track of player progression during the tutorial for new players, so we are releasing an update. Now the game will push a standardize leaderboard score when the player passes certain phases in the tutorial. We want to use this information to detect where players are struggling to progress the tutorial, in order to change and improve it. As a consequence, we are pushing to the game a bunch of changes that we wanted to wait until version 1.9.0, so we are calling this push an Alpha version. Specially, since many song charts need to be updated. Bellow is a changelog detailing the changes since the previous update. Tutorial pushes player progress to a hidden leaderboard so we can track player progress and identify if players are getting stuck in a specific part of the tutorial Updated Human Lov…

• Small Patch 1.8.2.155 - 23 July 2023

  Hello! Today we bring a small update fixing some issues that have plagued the game for a while. We have fixed the Default bindings for Gun Shooting missing the keys for the Valve Index controller and the Mixed Reality controllers. Due to the urgency to push the fix for Valve Index controllers, we are forced to push some changes that we were going to include until the next big patch. Some of the more notable changes are the following. We also updated the expert charts for the following songs as well as crowd and Auto Tones charts. She's On Fire by Brandon from the Anara Pack The Future Is Now by DORRR from the Anara Pack Easy Said by The Bots from the Big Indie Pack Visual representation for Note Punches updated. As well as many internals on how the game works, which leads to better gameplay smoothness. We are working on a new gameplay feature which we are ready to share soon with you. I…

• Update 1.8.0 LIVE Beta - 11 July 2023

  Hi Rockstars! Our original plan was to push the beta 1.8.0 to ensure the build is stable, while we updated the tracks for the songs to bring them up to parity with the new features added. However, we have started work on a new key feature, which while not ready yet to showcase, means we have to wait until we start updating all song tracks for the game, so we can cover the upcoming feature. While we don't have a true new version to what the Open Beta was, we still greatly prefer for the 1.8.0 beta build to be the version players play than version 1.7.0, as we feel its a richer and fuller experience, even if not all the song tracks aren't making use of the crowd, sound tones, and note type features currently available. We hope you enjoy playing this new version, and we are very excited to be able to show more news soon! Key Features Re-enabled Electric Lava and Arcade Wave stages. Updated…

Many gameplay tweaks and improvements to how the game handles various logic, resulting in a smoother experience. Refreshed the tutorial, including new voice for Ottava. In order to push this to the live branch, we still have to do some work, mostly updated at least the Anara songs to meet the standards of Today. As well as some visual bugs that have managed to creep in while working on this update. The greatest way you can help, is by playing the game, making a video and share your thoughts on how enjoyable and smooth of an experience the game is, so we can iterate and make sure the user exper…

• Update 1.7.0 - 24 April 2023

  Hello VR Musicians! Update 1.7.0 is now available for all to play and we are super excited to finally bring forth this change to you.

To get started, everyone playing the new update for the first time will have to go through the tutorial to ensure proper understanding of the new mechanics.

• Update 1.6.0 - Anara Publishing Music - 7 February 2023

  Hello Music Shooters! Our latest major update is now available to download on Steam! Become a Rockstar and Popstar with 6 new incredible songs from Anara Publishing, included with the base game! From Grunge-Rock to 80's pop music, these new songs by Brandon ft. SJBRAVO, DORRR, The Bullseyes offer new challenges and movements to dominate. We updated the base world to have some personality. We found that having a full black world was problematic for some users, so we created updated this world and the tutorial world, to have a basic environment, so players can have a horizon line of reference, while still being light to support users with low PC specs. This update also includes changes and tweaks to the internals of the game, to ensure a better flow of the music and player inputs. And the Bend Miss system was adjusted to be clearer when a bend is not correctly bent enough. We still have p…

• Update 1.5.1 Available - 6 January 2023

  Hello VR Music Shooters! This new update brings an extensive change to the sound system. We've added new sounds and changed the sound mix of the gun shots, the music, and your sound to provide a better sound experience to experienced and new players. A big change you'll notice, is that when you miss a shot, your sound and the Music sound will be muffled until you go back to playing correctly again. This should offer a more arcade experience to the game, while ensuring that if you are playing the game correctly, your sound will sound incredible. We still have work to do with bends, as those can be problematic, so we are planning out some internal changes to the bend system, to help out those in need to sound good in pitch, while offering total freedom to experienced players to create the sound they want to make. We've improved the gun shot sounds, so your shots will be much more powerful…

• Update 1.4.0 Beta - Part 2 - 29 November 2022

  Hello Musicians! We are back with a small update in preparation for the full release of 1.4.0 on Steam and Quest 2! In this weekly update we are adding back in the Volume 2 music after redesigning the tracks to handle handedness. We also took the time to redesign the User Interface of the Gameplay and Song Finish. These should be much clearer, cleaner. We also did some internal changes to how the game expect bends and scores you based on pitch. Overall, bending notes should feel better, with an indicator to tell you if you need to bend a bit more, and the scoring reflecting your current pitch. We hope you enjoy the patch and the updated music! Don't forget to stay in touch in our Discord to find out new music, tips, tricks, and discuss on our future features to implement in the game!

  Hello Musicians! We are very excited to finally removed from the closed beta the version 1.4.0 of the game. This is a huge update we have been working for the past few months now and it's only the beginning of the latest vision for Musical Range. In Musical Range we don't want you to feel like a musician. We want you to BECOME one for real!

While being easy to understand, but with massive depth to explore and to find your sound. With this objective in mind. We made a huge change to the game mechanics of the game. Your hands are now Color Coded, and the game will tell you to play certain notes with a specific hand. This will make the game flow better, as we can guide yo…

• 1.4.0 Beta Coming Soon - 8 November 2022

  Hello musicians! We've been working this past few months on core redesigns of the game. We are implementing handedness to the guns, as well as making preparations for future features we have in mind. We also have been working on a tutorial redesign, to be more intuitive, and effective in teaching players how to play the game and what each element of a note meteor means. This has been a long challenge as we had to rework some elements of the game to work with the new system. We are very proud of the changes and very excited to share with you. We truly think it will make the experience of playing the game more fun and easier to engage with. We've been pushing updates to a Beta branch every Monday for the past month. You had to opt in to the beta, but we are now at a point where we are confident on the new build, and playing the new build is much better than the previous, and the content i…

• Update 1.3.0! Sound Tones and Worlds! - 27 September 2022

  Hello VR Musicians! In this new update we are finally releasing a new world to play music. Electric Lava is our first step in exploring multiple worlds! We have more worlds in the work at the moment and we can't wait to share them with you over time. With this change, the default world is an Empty map. This will help new players get started as there is less visual clutter and doesn't require too much from your PC. To travel to the new world, simply select World Change option in the main menu, and select one of the 3 options. Once you select one, please wait a few seconds for the world to fully load. At the moment, the game doesn't remember which world you had selected, so every time you launch the game, you need to chose a world. Alternatively, you can change the world any time by turning backwards from the notes, and selecting the World Change from there. We also are releasing our firs…
