Beat Labs is an open and cross-platform sandbox for rhythm games in Virtual and Mixed Reality (VR/MR). It’s powered by a database of over 100 000 community-made song beatmaps.
The game is available on Meta Quest, PICO 4 and Apple Vision Pro as well as for Immersive Web (WebXR).
The game is free but you can support my efforts in continuing its development via Patreon or via PayPal.
We’re doing it in the open so come join the discussion on the Beat Labs Discord server, Facebook or other platforms (more links below)! You can also reach me via e-mail: beat.labs.game@gmail.com.
I have an ambition for Beat Labs to become a platform for immersive experiences rather than being a single game. A platform for music and rhythm-based mini-games, powered by content created by me, the community of players and AI (Artificial Intelligence).
One of the biggest selling points of Beat Labs is the sheer number and variety of songs the players can choose from. There's tens of thousands of beatmaps (levels) created by the community that it taps into.
Beat Labs is highly customizable to cater to various players preferences. This includes the ability to choose the type of gameplay, an environment in which the game takes place, custom models of weapons and destructible objects and more.
The customizations described above are part of what makes Beat Labs an extensible platform. The content that the community creates may even introduce novel gameplay mechanics that I haven't yet thought of. This approach is similar to other, highly popular and profitable platforms, like Fortnite, Minecraft or Roblox.
You can support the development of the project via Patreon or PayPal. It's completely optional as the game is free, but should you choose to do so, you might get some benefits:
Let's go! 🙏
