IGN has a new interview about Boom Boom Rocket with Ben Ward of Bizarre Creations. The interview itself is fairly standard stuff that was already known about Boom Boom Rocket, but I thought an interesting part of the interview was a discussion of what was left on the cutting room floor.[quote]Did you ever look at the possibility of people creating their own custom soundtracks?
We did try it but it just didn't work out. The levels need to be very specifically designed to ensure that the gameplay matches the music. It's tough to balance the entire thing so that it doesn't suck. Automatically generating actions just didn't give the results we needed. That said, we've got 10 tracks at three difficulty levels, with XBL leaderboards and split-screen multiplayer in there, so I'm not really worried about lack of variety.[/quote]That would be a great feature as it is something a lot of people have wanted from the likes of Guitar Hero for a while now, but it is easy to see why that would be a hard problem to solve.
