Does this support last.fm like audiosurf does ?

Audiosurf supports last.fm?

I *think* this game is made by the same people who did Audiosurf but i'm not sure. Either way the story goes that Audiosurf began as a bug ridden tool, so i have no doubt they'll be adding features to this for a while.

Bang on some gabba techno and you're laughing.

Well, kinda.....

Aye in the options. Every music app I use so far has last.fm plugins or last.fm built in, vlc, wmp, audiosurf, Nokia N97 ( vodafone scrobbler), spotify, etc...
Only my HU in my car doesn't

Hmm, in that case I'll wait till it's on a weekend deal in half a year I think.

God damnit, i was ranked 12th yesterday with 18mil, now i'm ranked 53th with 25.7mil ><

Fair enough, its only £7 full price anyway so if it gets the updates you want its not exactly gonna break the bank.

Hmmmm... How well does this work with classical music, say for example Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture or does it only really work with that techno crap?

Evilsod · 20 Apr 2010 at 15:47

It does tend to fall down on slow songs, very badly if they have a high tempo louder part in it somewhere because it gives you poor weapons. But all types of music should work really.

I panicked the moment i heard 1 of them fire and nuked them all ><

Ah, sorry, it seems it does support FLAC now, that was quick!

Enjoying this game thouroughly, very addictive.

mmmmm, you can see my last 2 rounds of bullets on screen.... yeah, that was fun

Tempted to purchase this, but I get most of my music through Napster, which is DRM protected. Anyone know if Beat Hazard works with DRM protected music?

Disjunto · 20 Apr 2010 at 21:28

wont work with DRM stuff

Evilsod · 20 Apr 2010 at 21:29

What format is it?

I know it currently has problems with itunes but its been worked on. After all, he added .flac and .ogg to it during the weekend.

Hellsmk2 · 20 Apr 2010 at 21:38

This game rocks so hard - Geometry/ Grid Wars to my own music.

BlackDragon · 20 Apr 2010 at 22:17

It's just wma, but has license rubbish with it that prevents you from doing anything other than play it on your own machine.

Disjunto · 20 Apr 2010 at 22:22

unfortunately, drm blocks unsupported systems from playing the music... which is why we all hate drm

Evilsod · 21 Apr 2010 at 14:53

Rofl, crashed the game with the error "No more free ships" because the ending of Stockholme Symdrome (Muse) just has stacks of ships piling in that don't actually attack. Apparently it doesn't like that.

Disjunto · 21 Apr 2010 at 16:07

hahaha, worlds best error message

The game rage on you?

Evilsod · 21 Apr 2010 at 16:16

Apparently leaving your multiplier to build up as more ships are sent in works fine until the game breaks

This makes my eyes bleed, but bloody good blaster for ~£5.
