Audiosurf - Update 6 [Direct Play]

Audiosurf - Update 6 [Direct Play]
Release Date: March 21, 2008


Ride Your Music

Audiosurf is a music-adapting puzzle racer where you use your own music to
create your own experience. In Audiosurf the player controls a levitating
spaceship-like craft similar to those found in Wipeout or F-Zero. The player
then maneuvers it down a colorful multi-laned highway, collecting blocks in a
manner similar to Klax. The shape, the speed, and the mood of each ride is
determined by the song you choose. The ship is controlled either by a mouse,
the arrow keys, the number keys, or a Gamepad.

This is a portable version, it doesn't require Steam!


Features:

- Play with any music from your own music collection
- Supported formats: mp3, wma, m4a, flac, ogg and CD
- Play with two players in single-screen cooperative mode

Additional Info:

Set your graphic detail to Premium to take advantage of Audiosurf's pixel
shader effects. In addition to the arrow keys, you can navigate with ASDF or
Tilde/1/2/3/4. For left and right click, you can use Z and X or comma and
period. You can also play with an Xbox 360 controller, use either stick to
navigate and move both sticks in the same direction to get to a shoulder.
You can use the triggers in place of mouse clicks.
