Speech Recognition & Scoring
We have built a brand new offline speech recognizer that is higher quality and more responsive for better scoring and no more dropouts.
Difficulties
There are now 8 difficulties across our two modes that can take you smoothly from full lyrics generation to a challenge for even seasoned freestylers.
Dynamic Rhyme Recognition
Go off, make it your own, and TempestAI will reward you for adding your own rhymes. On higher difficulties of Freeflow you'll be challenged to come up with your own rhymes for our starter words.
Modifiers
Play it your way: faster, slower, double time, no fail, no score.
Better Lyrics
Freeflow's Tempest Topics have been completely overhauled to be more coherent, consistent, and fun to rap.
Organize Your Beats
We've reworked the interface to let you sort the beats by artist, title, genre, length, speed, and your high scores.
And Much More
There's so many fixes and changes it's impossible to cover everything here. Check it out for yourself!
Infinite Storm Update
Beats
We've got a pack of 3 new Low-Fi beats from woolsee and evvnflo, but if you're not into Low-Fi we've still got you covered with INFINITE BEATS. You can now load all your MP3 and OGG files into Rhyme Storm and never run out of new jams!
Topics
Topics are now searchable, if you want to try every topic about pirates you can! You can also revisit topics, just scroll up on the topics screen to see everything you've rapped about.
Hypeman
We've toned down Hypeman, you now get subtler cues when you're failing. You can also mute him entirely from the setttings menu!
Tempest AI
We've made some updates and tweaks to the AI models and lyrics generation that has it working even better! Stay tuned for further updates soon, we're getting close to some big improvements in the Tempest Topics lyrics system.
Settings
Yes, the settings menu now works! It also includes a link to our troubleshooting guide in case you're having problems with the speech recognition.
General Improvements
We've made a bunch of small improvements all over the game including improvements to our scoring system, the ability to bail out of a rap by hitting ESC at any time, updating to the latest Unity engine, and too many tiny things to list.
We're really excited for you to try out the new improved Rhyme Storm, and there's plenty more updates to come!
