Quaver is a community-driven and open-source competitive vertical scrolling rhythm game with two game modes and online leaderboards. It also features an in-game editor and a flexible multiplayer mode.
It is also available on Steam Early Access for Windows, Mac, and Linux—making it one of the most accessible community-driven rhythm games to date.
This project is currently under heavy development and is in a beta state, however it is extremely playable as a standalone game. Quaver still has a ton of work ahead of it and will continue to get better as time goes on with new features and bug fixes being added each day.
Although there are many games like this, Quaver offers many unique features and expands on the ideas of its predecessors that make it much different. It is also heavily inspired by a variety of our favorite rhythm games.

Any contributions can be made through opening a pull request. When contributing however, please keep in mind that there should only be one branch/pull request per feature.

Please make sure to keep your pull requests short and concise.
If you are wanting to develop a feature with the goal of having it being in the Steam release, open up an issue first, so we can discuss if it is in the scope of what we are trying to accomplish.
When contributing, please remember to follow our code style, so the codebase is consistent across the board. If you have any issues with our approaches to structuring/styling our code, feel free to bring this up.
