Description: ArtPulse offers an artistic VR sandbox to play and express your creativity in. Spawn and combine shapes, colours, and freehand painting to sync them seamlessly into the background music. You don’t need to be an experienced artist or musician to make cool stuff, but you can just create and let the game elevate it!
Each shape and colour emits a different sound, which will sync with the background song that the player chooses. Having no rules allows you to do whatever you want to. Fly around spawning shapes or create a tree in the colours of a rainbow.
Review: ArtPulse is not an easy app to describe. It essence it is a virtual music visualizer but I feel that sells it a little short of what a joy it is to play around with. You are placed in a world in which you can make shapes. Each shape and each size of shame is a different tone and a different beat. So as you build your musical world it sounds more and more like a song. If you love making EDM you might well enjoy this app. Personally I have no musical talent at all, so I struggled to find the shapes and sizes that I really wanted. But that didn’t stop me from enjoying just messing around with it. Just make sure that it is your cup of tea before downloading it, as there is no gameplay here, its just a relaxing tool to create music with.
