Simon DJ by JanGamesDev
Simon DJ is a rythm VR game. Play the song following the steps and keep the party going.
We recomend playing this game with a VR headset.
Web -> Use the mouse to look around and click the buttons, click and drag to move sliders and the turntable.
VR -> Needs a VR HMD and at least 1 controller. Use the trigger to activate the buttons and drag to move sliders and turntables.

Not having a VR headset didn't stop me from liking this at all.
@dugas I'm glad you liked the scratching because I tought it was the weakest component (I spend some time on it but I didn't like how it felt). I would like to add more tools later if I keep developing it.
@orsi Thanks for playing, the desktop controls got added on monday while I was having my launch break so they are not that great.
@team-on Thanks. I started on sunday so actually it took 2 days (And a lot of effort).
@spyranteros Thanks for playing. I develop it thinking about VR so it works better in that platform, I hope you can try it in VR someday :D
Gonna be honest, took me a while to understand I should press the buttons when he asked me to... I was having too much fun making my own random beat hahahahaha
Wish I could try for VR!
Great job!
fix the controls :)
Some caveats, I have:
- The scratching indicator wasn't very clear to me, should I scratch the whole while the capsule rides through the disk?
- One needed to put the volume of the left track to maximum volume, and this was too loud, the song was clipping.
- As I mentioned afore, after some time the game was repetitive. But for a jam game, it was still very much content.
- Pressing the trigger button to interact with the buttons was a little bit strange. Would've been nice if they just triggered on touch. Also moving the sliders would've been better with the grab button. But this varies depending on the used headset and controllers, I guess.
I had very much fun with the game, partying and dancing with the crowd. I think, if you flesh this game out more and implement more content, it could get really popular amongst VR players. Good job!
