Moon Rider

moonrider

Surf the musical road among the moon, stars, and northern lights.

A side project built by two people in a few months to show off VR running inside a webpage. Built with HTML, JavaScript, and A-Frame. Not meant to be an official game nor commerical product. Moon Rider is meant to be an open source resource for the web developer community to learn from, and to push forward the open WebXR initiative.

Song maps are sourced from beatsaver. Supports all browsers and headsets (incl. Quest). If there are any issues, file an issue here on GitHub or leave a message in the Supermedium Discord.

Featuring various modes:

  • Ride Mode - Just sit back and enjoy the ride.
  • Punch Mode - Crush the stars.
  • Viewer Mode - Watch the beatmap within your browser.
  • Classic Mode - Surf and slice along the musical road.

Big thanks to @elliottate for helping out with this!

Development

Have Node (< v12, recommended v11) and npm installed.

npm install
npm run start

Then head to localhost:3000 in your browser.

Remixing and Forking

Make this game your own! Some easy ways to mess around:

  • To modify or add more color palettes, change src/constants/colors.js.
  • To change images, replace images in src/assets/img/ folder. For example, replace the moon at `src/assets/img/moon.png'.
  • To change models, replace models in src/assets/models/ folder. For example, replace the arrow blocks at src/assets/models/arrowblue.obj or arrowred.obj.
  • To change sounds, replace sounds in src/assets/sounds. For example, replace the hit sounds at src/assets/sounds/.
  • Change various values such as speed in src/state/index.js or BEAT_PRELOAD_TIME in src/components/beat-generator.js to mess with how fast you travel along the curve, or how much reaction time until the notes arrive to the player.

Other ways such as adding more modes are more involved, but with knowledge of A-Frame and JavaScript, is doable!
