A downloadable game for Android

Beat Bandit is a VR rhythm/fitness game where you slash, or shoot your way through levels set to pulsating music. You use a sword, or gun to destroy blocks to the beat.

Levels are made up of blocks that denote the direction in which they are to be cut, or groups of blocks that are marked with the multiplier you receive for destroying them. When using the sword, make sure you use the cutting edge to get the most points.

When using the gun, make sure your aim and timing is true. Challenge your friends and family for honors on your local leaderboard, and, when you are ready, take on the global leaderboards.

The game ships with 14 songs and over 25 levels (with more planned in the future updates), but players can add their own songs to the game by creating levels using tools like mediocre mapper.

CUSTOM SONGS

Beat Bandit can import custom songs in ModSaber (Beat Saber) format! You can create your own levels using tools like mediocre mapper, or import custom songs created by the community.

Create a directory in the “Music” folder on your Oculus Go, and name the directory “BeatBandit” (The Directory structure is case-sensitive).

Open the Music directory on your Oculus Go
Create a directory in the Music folder, and name it BeatBandit

Copy the custom song folders into this directory (“Music/BeatBandit”) on your Oculus Go and start the game.

Make sure you unzip the folder before copying it to this directory, and make sure the entire directory is copied.

Once this is done, the songs you added should appear in the Custom Tab under the song list on the main menu. (Difficulty levels up-to “Expert” are supported. We found that “Expert+” levels were unachievable with the single saber in Beat Bandit)

I tried uploading a custom song, but it says the demo doesnt allow for it?
Also, no way to use both controllers at the same time?(Quest)

Hi Leinad,

To upload custom songs you need the full version of the game. Plus, the game was built for the Oculus Go, and so only one controller works on the quest. I didn't know that people would be able to play it on the quest.

Best,

Shane

Thanks Shane, any plans to add the second controller and make it for oculus quest in the future? I would totally pay for this, if you can upload your own songs and have 2 controllers!
Ill pay extra if you find a way to make us jump every once in a while, as to, ...ahem , ...not to skip leg day....

haha. No plans on a quest version. I need to get myself a quest first. :)

well, open an.fofundme ASSP to help you get an oculus quest and develop games for it! Quick, before Facebook destroys it!

Seriously though, open a gofundme or something to get an oculus quest. We need developers, but I dont know any programming, so im willing to help others!

:) Yeah, I need to look into that.
