A music based first person shooter where you can upload your own tracks. Spectrum is a game devoloped in the blender game engine that analyzes the sound spectrum of your music and generates a level for the game making the enemies spawn in a diferent order and frequency. The game is free and supports all kind of modding Spectrum is some kind of "zombie" whave survival shooter but instead of zombies you will find glowing insects that spawn with the music. This is a project devoloped by a 1 person team, just me, this game doesn't uses any kind of text based programming its all built using the blender game engine logic bricks. So, hope that you like this project and that you have a lot of fun killing electric bugs with a railgun as your favourite music plays on the background. Basic controls: WASD: Move Left mouse button: Machinegun Right mouse button: Shotgun Arrows: Navigate the menu Enter: Select something in the menu Spacebar: Jump ESC: Quit the game
The first thing you have to do is downloading blender from it's oficial page: here , the program I'm using for making the game, but don't worry you won't need to do anything difficult with it.
Once you have downloaded blender, open it, then for uploading a track to any of the 3 solots the game provides open the .blend file in any of the "SONG folders in this directory
\Spectrum\SPECTRUM\DATA
HOW TO OPEN THE FILE IN BLENDER:
Once you click Open, just select the .blend file you have to open:
Once you open the .blend file of any song slot you will see something like this:
Now minimize the blender window and do the following:
Now we are almost done, maximize the blender window again and do this:
Click on Key and then click on "Bake sound to F-Curves"
Once you click "Bake sound F-Curves" the blender file browser will open again just look for this .mp3 file and click "Bake sound to F-Curves"
Once it loads the song just do one more thing:
And then save the .blend file:
Onse you save it you are done, close blender and start SPECTRUM, if you did it well it will play your song.
If you have any problem ley me know.
I've added a 3rd person mode and a "free view mode" so that means the playermodel can be replaced by any 3D model that the player can import, just check...
WASD: Move Left mouse button: Machinegun Right mouse button: Shotgun Arrow keys: Navigate the menu Enter: Select something in the menu Spacebar: Jump...
Try to make it so the colours change based on Bass levels... I don't know, try it out, make the game look like you're kiling bugs in a trance disco.. Just make sure we don't have epileptic issues
Don't worry I will test every version of the game, so if it causes me an epileptic attack I won't be able to upload the demo
This game mixes Tron & Hero's duty (Wreck-it-Ralph)
Yeah I took inspiration from both
I dare you to play it with the hero's duty "bug hunt" soundtrack
