This will be good news for those of you who remember (and liked)
Guitar Villian!
Yes, Guitar villain is back, under the new name (for now) Guitar Vigilante! Guitar Vigilante is a customizable rhythm game very much like guitar hero. However, there are two key differences;
1) You can load in your own sound files and actually play them.
2) There is a story mode in which you explore the town, look for gigs and better band equipment. (This is still in development)
In order to play your own original songs, you need to follow these steps:
1) Create your music file
2) Create a .TXT file containing the notes of your song, as described in the "Note_definitions.txt" in the main folder.
3) Load the .TXT file into the game. (Disabled in the demo)
4) Load your music file into the game. (Also disabled in demo)
5) Play your song!
6) ???
7) Profit!
You can play using either your computer keyboard or an XBox Guitar Hero X-plorer game controller. For the keyboard, the controls are as follows:
"1" key - Green fret
"2" key - Red fret
"3" key - Yellow fret
"4" key - Blue fret
"5" key - Orange fret
Space bar - Strum
For the XBox guitar controller, the controls are the same as Guitar Hero or Rock band.
A demo is attached.
