Description: The goal of this game is to give you the same drumming experience as playing the real drums except at a fraction of the cost! I plan on adding many features such as multiplayer, custom drum texture, different drum sounds, and much more! At the moment you can build a good-sized drum set almost being able to cover any song! You can move and rearrange the drums into any position you choose making some very cool drum sets and very crazy ones if you choose! The triggers on the controllers control the kick drums making it more convenient to play. The game has a double kick drum kit only available at the moment for more of a metal feel. There will be more kit options later in the game for HiHats instead of double bass drums or even having both at the same time for more experimentation
Review: DrummingVR isn’t a game and it is definitely not an instrument learning tool. This is a virtual drum kit for you to build and test and in that regard that does kind of do what it needs to do. Sure, it looks like utter crap, but the sound is king here and while I am no expert I feel it does get the job done. It’s not going to turn you into a world-class drummer, in fact, there is no tutorial at all here, but if you can’t afford a real drum kit for £2.09 this might be something to mess about with. But then I have to question why you can’t afford a drum kit when you spent £1000+ on a VR headset and a PC to run it!
