Audiosurf 2 - Dylan
Two new play modes have been added: Audioshmup and Basspusher.

Audioshmup
Surf your way through bullet hell! Audioshmup is about weaving through bullets while shooting at the boss (automatically). Shots from the center score the most points.



Basspusher
Introducing Bass Blocks! Basspusher is a two-color puzzle mode with a new twist: the red blocks come from the bass in the music while the blue blocks come from overall intensity. With both of them on the track at once there’s a lot to push around and quickly form multicolor matches.



New skinning features
The skinning possibilities in AS2 have been massively upgraded thanks to work from community member DeathByNukes. It will be exciting to see what modders can do with these new powers - especially unity asset bundle loading. Details are here, with more coming:

Audiosurf 2 is great on Steamdeck!
The joysticks are awesome, but I like surfing with the trackpads (and gyro) even more.



edit: Workshop is now fixed - thanks for the reports.

10 New Songs!
Audiosurf 2 now comes with 10 more built-in songs (in the Recommended section of the song browser). Like the others, these are hand-picked as some of the best rides out there.



The Murder City Devils (Rock)
5 Murder City Devils songs are now included with the game! These songs have been inspiring me for years and were some of my most-listened back when the original Audiosurf algorithm was coming together. In fact, one of the first Audiosurf screenshots ever released was of Flashbulb (it has the song name at the bottom, but I wasn't able to find it). It’s so awesome for me to be able to share these songs here! The five songs are: Flashbulb, I Want A Lot Now (So Come On), Press Gang, Rum and Whiskey, and 364 Days.

Audioshield Theme (Epic)
A new custom composition for Audioshield (that also plays great in Audiosurf 2)! Winifred Phillips worked hard to make sure the composition created great gameplay moments and it really paid off.

Break of Reality (Cello Rock)
One of their most popular songs, Spectrum of the Sky, has been a favorite Audiosurf track of mine for years. In approaching them about licensing it, I discovered Helix which also creates great gameplay. Enjoy these two!

Surgeryhead (Electro)
An up and coming Irish musician working in the direction of bands like Carpenter Brut. Audiosurf 2 now includes two really great tracks from him: Revelations and She’s a Runaway.

Local music files still work great, but online streaming isn't working in Audiosurf 2 right now. A big streaming update is in development.

EDIT: Beta testing now open
