You Must Play This - LEVEL 2 Demo

First off, you can get the game and follow news for it here: http://lastchancetoreason.wordpress.com/

This game is set in sync to a progressive metal album about the relation between man and technology and the ever closing gap between the two. The entire game follows the concepts of the album, and is synced directly to the music, following a score attack style formula. Right now it seems PC only, but I can foresee this potentially showing up on XBLA or PSN too.

Keep your eyes on this, it's a huge indie project that's been in the works for a while now. Even if you're not a fan of metal, the blend of gameplay and music is an experience that I haven't quite seen since REZ came along. There are no sound effects either, just the music and the experience.

Lastly, yes I'm aware I'm not speaking in this video, that'd just ruin the experience.

Ill put up a video about this soon. Cheers Jman! (im the artist in that game...)

[MegaUltraJMan]

@FrankieSmileShow Haha yeah, I keep telling all my friends about your work on this and plugging some of your other art to them. I can't wait to see what the rest of the game looks like considering the audio/visual content goes hand in hand so well.

It's an interesting concept but what happens if you spend possibly multiple hours on a boss? Would the music just loop until you beat it?

[MegaUltraJMan]

@TheDeubTube Pretty positive the game is scripted so even without attacking the boss it'd either leave eventually or the same events would occur as it exhausts it's power potentially.

@RSCNyx No no, the game is called Level 2

1:44 Lyrics "A system update glows in this directory"

As that line ends, an upgrade for your weapon appears on screen.

3:04 Lyrics "As this update activates my limbs glow with its effect on me"

Scenery has an "updated" look, limb glows in background.

I see what you did there, game.

This game reminds me of a metal version of Master Blaster for the NES which was one of my favorite games as a kid

This is perfection....with the exception of the deep vocals but thats simply personal taste. Everything about this I like, the question for me is whats the status on the game so far since this is only a demo, correct?

This is from the band Last Chance to Reason and it plays along with their album "Level 2"

Am I the only one that's sitting here thinking "WOW THIS IS A BIG FUCKING DEAL"

I hope not. This is amazing.

Pretty cool to see you covering this MegaUltraJMan, had the album myself for awhile and it is crazy good.
