Audiosurf Now Available on Steam

Related Topics – Audiosurf, Steam

Dylan Fitterer's innovative rhythm-racing title Audiosurf is now available for purchase on Steam, Valve announced today.

One of the first titles to make use of Steam achievements via Valve's recently released Steamworks tools, Audiosurf is a simple racer which analyzes user-provided audio tracks and integrates the rhythm and tempo of the song into the course. Valve has provided the entire Orange Box soundtrack, including Jonathan Coulton's "Still Alive", for use in the game.

Gamers on the fence can download a free demo of Audiosurf on Steam to give the game a shot prior to purchase. Audiosurf is available at a $9.95 price point.

The demo only lets you play on a max of medium. Playing on the elite difficulty (Ninja Mono, I believe) is a hell of a lot of fun. I was stuck on this game for a few hours last night

I wonder if this would be made available for consoles also. Seems like it would fit perfect.

- It doesn't. You'll have to remove the DRM or do a burn swap to use those tracks. : Gnerma

Of the four chances you get to play in the demo, the first three songs I tried were all right, but not mind blowing. I was considering whether I should bother buying the full thing, and then I loaded Andy Hunter's "Go".

I bought the game.

I even held the worldwide Casual record on the song for a little while. Less than a day, sure, but it was a good feeling anyway. You can get the music on iTunes in DRM-free "Plus" format, if you're into Apple's service. Probably available elsewhere too, and I understand a good number of this guy's tracks make for a great ride. My highest recommendation, go try it out!

For the first time since the release of TF2, there were dozens of Shackers playing SOMETHING ELSE last night. Some demo but mostly full. Stinging karma ass slaps to the shack community for supporting a cool indie project.

AudioSurf is kind of a fun way to enjoy music and games together!

I think they need to add duel sound level sliders in the options menu: One for game sound effect levels and one for the actual song. Because when I played my first song, Holy Hell it was LOUD.

Besides that if was pretty good. I really like the unlockable ships with different abilities to suit your style of play, and the achievements thing always adds a reason to play more.
