Game Overview & History

Fader was created in less than 50hrs on a train (TrainJam 2015).

Gameplay Mechanics & Systems

Fader is a DJ Beatmixing game. Combining elements of rhythm based games we’ve come to know and love, with the idea of beatmixing entire tracks together: Fader isn’t just about hitting the right timings on specific instruments, it’s about matching the entire song until you get a “perfect mix”.

A perfect mix occurs when you have scores of 100’s on all three tracks. Each side of the game level is a seperate track: right, middle and left. The score is the volume of that particular track, when all three are maxed out at 100, all three are playing at full volume. The longer you stay on a track and the more boxes you collect, the higher the score/volume gets. Avoid the bombs!
