Project VtuberBGM - A Vtuber-themed Rhythm Game

Hey all. Random update here.

Never expect the Vtuber craze got me wanting to make something in honor of them existing, lmao. Speaking like a true cult. The second coming of god's creation or something like that.

Anyways, story's like this - i wanna pay tribute to them, i really do. At first, i'm only thinking stuff like fan arts, or animations, to get dem attentions. Problem is there is just so much i can do as a person. Not able to watch them all due to adult-ing, personal projects, and crying to sleep, i simply can't keep up with content and dem blazing fast speeds of talented artists out there. 

Midst of contemplating of a way around this, i'm nodding away to how catchy the Vtubers' BGM they put in their intros. Vibin' yo.

Then it hit me. I can make a game out of this.

Rhythm gamerrrrrrr 最強だ

So, for starters i'll go with the standard 4-key input in the oldie rhythm games, and work my way up from there. Thinking of adding a separate control for the snare/ percussion to keep things busy. Plans to have each Hololive member a distinctive mechanic based on the feel i get from each one of their BGM. For example.

~Mori Calliope BGM Loop - 1 Hour~
Mori Calliope's BGM gives me a spooky spooky skeleton vibe, so
i might be adding skeletons, and players to
(in Reaper fashion) kill the souls that comes with the beat.

~Takanashi Kiara Intro BGM - 10 Minutes~
Takanashi Kiara's BGM makes me wanna lead a marching band,
and serve fried chicken to how the song is played.

~Amelia Watson Piano BGM (1 Hour)~
Amelia Watson, hooooboi. Slams desk at the right beat for additional points. 
Roughly similar to how AD-LIB works in Groove Coaster

~Gura Hums Her BGM / Gawr Gura / HoloLive EN Songs~
Gwar Gura.... hrm... i really dunno tho. the song is really cheerful.
I'll do my best to make it challenging, but not too intimidating
that it is too weird for a simple song.
Felt bad that she can't stream MuseDash anymore

~Ninomae Ina’nis Intro BGM - 10 Minutes~
Ina ina, Ninomae Ina'nis. Honestly this song is comfy as hecc.
For this i can only think of gathering the takos while vibin to the song.

I realised most songs came from this channel
~DOVA-SYNDROME YouTube Official~

Not sure if i should add swiping mechanics lol. Anything goes i guess. If possible i can add a hub world where players can interact with easter eggs like mori's old PC setup, Kiara's dream KFP... stuff like that. To-Be-Continued and Subject-To-Change.

There are other Vtuber projects i wann get my hands on, like Pekora's PEKODAM Gundam-esque sequence with this sick ass dope metal track lmao (song here) (Need to study up her Minecraft vids lol). Also, Watson being a ground poundin plumber fan-art.  Ohh ohh. and like, believable storytime animations of Vtubers? yea... i wanna do that some time.

For now will be featuring Hololive EN first, since this gen led me to the rabbit hole. Plan to add in the JP in later updates. Will update rhythm game details in the next update. Ciao/
