Raycatcher is an innovative new game that syncs gameplay to your favorite mp3s. Load in your entire music library and watch as the game morphs itself to match. The gameplay itself is easy to pick up, yet compelling. Rotate a cluster of colorful shapes to catch matching rays of light cast onto your screen. As you match light to shape, your cluster will expand and evolve.
Raycatcher also comes with a selection of great music from the brilliant new artist Noobie Noobinson.
- Load in your own music: Raycatcher will accept .mp3 and .wav formats
- Beat detection technology: Changes gameplay to match your music in pleasant and creative ways
- Make playlists of any length: Raycatcher is flexible and allows you to play for how ever long you want, and still feel like you've made progress
- Original music by artist Noobie Noobinson: Music by a new up and coming band, some of which was created specifically for Raycatcher
- 30 evolutionary stages: Complete with funny and enlightening descriptions. Raycatcher illustrates a cute and informative view of the kosmos
- Range of difficulty: Easy to pick up, with 3 difficulty levels that range from easy-yet-challenging to insanely difficult

One of the biggest piles of poop I've ever had the displeasure of playing. Please do not buy this even for your worst enemy.
simply sh.it, nothing more to say!
Don't buy this game. There's a reason it has a 0% rating.
Seriously, this is one of those "play your music" games that just play your wallet. The playing field isn't really generated with any "beat detection technology" at all. The game just seems to randomly spew out blobs based loosely on the BPM of the current track.
The game's ugly as sin, the original soundtrack is awful and it's been bested by flash games on newgrounds from ten years ago.
Literally the only game out of my nearly 300 titles that I regret purchasing. Bought it at its release in 2009 and to this date I still rue that decision. The game does not syncronize to your music library at all, almost seemingly launching rays for you to catch at random. The developers swiftly abandoned the project after releasing it, so any and all hope of improvement was lost long, long ago. Take your $5 and spend it on a game that actually functions. Maybe 5 apps for your phone. Or a burrito. It's your call, but definitely heed my warning, friends.
This game does not work, and is not supported by the developer. Do not buy it.
Quite a simple game, but I do not recommend this for the price it is offering. I'm not exactly sure how this game encorporates your own music into it because it seems to me the projectiles appear randomly and the music just acts as background. Either way, it's Atari inspired, the only purpose of this game is to score the highest score possible. It requires quite the flexibility. There's a glitch in the game though, when the flower hits a certain size, the projectiles vanish for no reason as if it hit an object. I do not recommend this game at the price it's offering, it's lacking in many areas and the mouse control gets tiring and not relaxing. There are better Atari-like games out there.
Don't get suckered in by the video provided.
This game is literally flawed on it's major selling point: using your library of music.
The game was deisgned at a point in time before new Windows 7 came to the market, so it was clearly designed when Vista came out. The menu system that is meant to search out you music is entirely and utterly flawed. You can get it to work, it is just difficult, and will not do expansive libraries/folders for whatever reasoning, there is the limitation in file formats, etc. Maybe it works on Vista flawlessly, but the Windows market is already mainly on Windows 7 or Windows 8 these days for the majority.
The rest of the game works for me just fine, however, being limited to the game's default tracks makes replayability horrid and as is the game doesn't have any 'jazz' to its visuals and you just rotate your sphere of spheres on an axis to match incoming rays. Shallow as could be.
As I stated back in January in the community discussion for this game, unless you are looking for ideas from a dev perspective and find this on sale for under $1, I wouldn't recommend this game.
It sits in my library as a reminder to me, review and find solid ground for each purchase before making the purchase.
This game was my first mistake. I was caught up in the moment, having just enjoyed Audiosurf, one of the first indy games on steam. I thought this would be similar, I was wrong. This game is barebones, and the music doesn't really correspond to the gameplay at all.
This game was my first mistake on steam, don't make it one of yours.
Terrible game, it does not work. DO NOT BUY IT!
AVOID AT ALL COST, WHY IS THIS STILL ON STEAM?
cant even pause it. A few years ago the developer potentially had me writing good reviews about this.... file (I wont call it a game), apparently his programming buddy has gone awol, and this game has been left in the disasterous state it was released in. I would call it a cashgrab, following the success of audiosurf, and while I really wanted to like it, it is complete trash.
2/10, pros: small file, quickly removable, at one point it had promise.
cons: all the rest.
Edit: Worse game then Barbie's Dreamhouse Party
This game is not good at all. Most boring music "based" game on steam so far. Plus it's plauged with problems and the guy's programmer left so promised patches never got released. This game is dead. I would not recommend it at all.
DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. It's unsupported by devs, never really worked correctly to your music, and was just generally a waste of money.
Raycatcher truly is the future of videogaming. With the Omega Point right around the bend, Raycatcher alone is threatening to topple the post-modern empire that large companies have built. It is also free from the restrictions of the general indie developer's black iron prison. Raycatcher has stolen the great arcanum from the gods, and like prometheus, is being punished for sharing this fire.
absolutely shit
