A downloadable game for Windows

Project Launchpad is a prototype rhythm game which primarily focuses on the seldom implemented mechanic of using all letter buttons on the standard keyboard to press notes.

As the name suggests, this project was inspired by the satisfying performances executed on MIDI launchpads, which utilize a large grid of buttons to correspond with music.

This game also has a level-maker system available for those interested in testing out different sets of notes and music tracks or sharing levels with others. Please read the Download & install instructions thoroughly for more information.

Controls:

Letter keys - Buttons used to click on notes

Enter - Start level

Esc - Restart level

Install instructions

The Project Launchpad .rar file contains the primary game. However, please first download the Demo Level .rar file and following these instructions before continuing further.

This game utilizes what Unity calls the Persistent Data Path. It is similar to how Minecraft uses a specific AppData folder to store custom maps, mods, etc. For Windows, the path for this game should be located in C:\Users\[USER]\AppData\LocalLow\DefaultCompany\Project Launchpad . This folder may need to be created for instructions to work. The Demo Level .rar file must then be extracted here (file contents must be direct children of the Project Launchpad folder). Read through the README file for instructions for level creation if interested.

NOTE: The Persistent Data Path has only been tested with Windows. If on a different operating system or facing issues, please visit https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Application-persistentDataPath.html for original documentation on Unity's Persistent Data Path.
