Ok, gather round. Challenge time. I got slightly bored a few days ago, and decided to have a look around for a new music game, (Guitar Hero, Rock Band style, for those of you who didn't understand.) and ended up finding a slightly simpler, multiplayer version, played with the keyboard. I've mentioned before that i'm a fan of the keyboard version, Frets on Fire, and this has pretty much the same controls, so easy for anyone to pick up.

Controls explained below, feel free to skip.
Controls are the F keys, and the enter key for frets and pick, respectivly. Here's a dude i've never met demonstrating

Simple, eh?

Now that we know the genre, heres the game.

As I mentioned earlier, it's multiplayer, so instead of just comparing scores, we can duke it out on the spot. Anyone up for it?

Well i failed dramatically at it the other way, though it was pretty decent
(I blame it on my un-Guitar-friendly keyboard) :D

Though i have been getting better Dk, you have been warned :p

WHAT??!!! You can play that? Insane...

I played around with it for the last 20 mins or so, and was actually really impressed by it - and how I improved :D. Although I didn't play it the "pro" way, I just pressed the keys sitting at my desk lol.

I'm gonna play that some more then pwn you all :p.

Oh, side note. if you sign up for an account, you gain access to an options menu. then you can customise your keys... so If you have a keytar that you want to use, you can.

oh, and hammerons have to be accurate. they 're really hard to pick, and any odd notes will stop the tap

No. The drums are crap and the guitar is retarded, as there is no defined buttons and you have to play the solo down the neck.
