Music Triangle

Music Triangle, developed by Unity 3D engine, combines with the music games with Xbox 360 Kinect motion-sensing technology. All the songs of electric music inside are self-composed. Via body and hand swings, players can easily enjoy cool visual effects, music rhythms and delights of creation.
It has challenge and free modes. The challenge mode is the same as general music games, scoring marks by following rhythms to eliminate notes while notes appear. Because it is operated by motion-sensing, people can play like dancing with plenty of motions.
In the free mode, players pretend themselves as DJs to control music’s five audio tracks – two of different drums, two of different keys and one of electric guitar – and decide by themselves whether to open these audio tracks to create the layers of music they want. It lays emphasis on auditory enjoyment as composing music in real time, allowing players to choose sound effects and configurations and controling everything and effects by themselves, so as to achieve real “motion-sensing creation.”
