FullVolume

The karaoke game that plays
your own music library.

A spiritual successor to Xbox 360 LIPS, built for PC. Point it at the songs you already have and sing any of them. On your own, or in a room online with your mates.

No storefront. No song packs. No subscription.

What it is

A karaoke machine
for the songs you
already own.

Every karaoke game wants to sell you the music. FullVolume hasn't got any to sell. It reads the songs already sitting on your drive and turns them into a proper karaoke night: lyrics, pitch, scoring, stars, the lot.

And it listens properly. Hold a note and you watch the score climb; slide off it and you know about it straight away. Sing the whole thing an octave down if that's where your voice lives. It still counts.

It also looks like somewhere you'd actually want to sing. Every last bit of it is hand drawn. And if you don't fancy the room, drop in a picture or a video of your own and that's your stage instead.

  • 0 songs ready to sing on one ordinary drive, found the moment you point at the folder
  • $0 to spend on any of them. There is no shop to put one in

  • Sing badly,

    loudly.

    The only rule

Features

Everything's in the box.

The whole game, one installer, nothing phoning home.

It actually hears you

Land the note and it knows. Nail it dead centre and it really knows. Sing high, sing low, sing it an octave down - if it's the right note, you get the points.

Your library, not a store

Point it at your song folders and it takes it from there. Only songs somebody actually sings on make the list, so you never pick a track and find there's nothing to sing.

Line up a set list

Queue songs up while somebody else is still singing, so the night runs itself instead of stopping dead between every track.

Online, with voices

Name a room, send it to your mates, and sing together from wherever you are. Chat freely between songs, and hold your key mid-song when you want to be heard over it.

Make it your room

Drop a picture or a video into a folder and it turns up as a backdrop you can pick. Give the menus one and your songs another.

Tuned to your gear

One button and it sorts out your audio delay on its own. Or tap along for a few bars and let it work you out. Either way, everything lines up.

Screens

Have a look.

Straight out of the game. Nothing here is a mock-up.

  • The title screen. The logo over the player's own backdrop, with PRESS START along the bottom.

    Press start.

  • The WHO IS SINGING panel, listing the JURMR profile, a Guest option and New Singer.

    Sign in, play as a guest, or make a profile

  • The main menu: Play, Multiplayer, Settings and Quit on gold plates, with the signed-in singer along the bottom.

    Play, Multiplayer, Settings, Quit

  • The song browser: album art down the left, an A to Z rail, a detail panel with cover and metadata, and Easy and Sing plates.

    Your library, with your best score on every row

  • The song browser with the queue overlay open, showing two songs lined up and the song count at the foot of the list.

    Queue up a set list before anyone argues

  • The song intro card: Kryptonite by 3 Doors Down, marked VOCALS and EASY, over the backdrop.

    The intro card, while the chart loads

  • Gameplay: the vocal track across the screen, cover art and progress top left, score and five stars top right, GET READY in the header.

    The vocal track, waiting for the first phrase

  • The pause menu: Resume, Settings, Start Over, Skip Song and a coral End Song plate.

    Pause, with the settings you can change mid-song

  • The results screen: The Kill by 30 Seconds to Mars graded BRILLIANT, five stars, 118,242 points, 42 of 42 phrases landed and a FULL COMBO banner.

    Stars, streak, and how close to perfect you got

  • The Sing Together screen showing the open rooms list, five JURMR Karaoke rooms each marked OPEN with a Join plate.

    Public rooms, listed and joinable

  • The Host a Room form: room name, optional room code, how many singers, and whether it appears in the open rooms list.

    Host one: name it, lock it, cap it

  • The Join by Name form, asking for a room name and a code only if the room is locked.

    Or join with a name and a code

  • The room lobby: who is in the room, a TALKING voice meter, a chat panel, and Ready and Choose A Song plates.

    The lobby, with live voice and chat

  • The same lobby with Kryptonite queued, marked IN YOUR LIBRARY, and the status line waiting for one more singer to go ready.

    It checks everyone actually has the song

Multiplayer

Singing alone is
only half of it.

Host a room, send it round, and sing together from wherever you all are.

The room

Name it, lock it,
send it round.

Host it from inside the game. Put a code on it if you'd rather keep it to yourselves, or leave it public and let people wander in.

  • Public rooms listed in the game, joinable in one click
  • Or a name and a code, for a room only your mates can find
  • Say how many singers it takes, and it holds the door at that
  • Anyone can queue a song, and it says up front who hasn't got it
The voices

You can actually
hear each other.

Voice chat is part of the game, not something you bolt on beside it. The gap between songs ends up being half the fun.

  • Open mics in the lobby, so nobody's sat there in silence
  • Push to talk once a song starts, so nobody's singing comes back at you over the music
  • Everyone stays perfectly in time, wherever they are
  • Everybody's score on screen at once, which is rather the point

Your library

You probably already
own the songs.

If you've already got a Clone Hero song folder, you've already got a set list. Rock Band packages and .sng archives count too. Nothing to convert, nothing to import, nothing to buy.

  1. 1

    Point it at your songs

    Settings, then Library, then Add Folder. Add as many as you've got, on as many drives as you like.

  2. 2

    Put the kettle on

    It reads through them once, tells you how it's getting on, and then remembers. You'll not wait on it again.

  3. 3

    Sing

    Search it, sort it, pick something, and go. It opens on the list, not on a loading bar.

Download

Go on then.

One installer, everything in it. No account, no launcher, no admin rights. Hand it to your mates and it just works.

GET IT

Uninstall it whenever you like. Your profiles, scores, backdrops and song folders stay exactly where they were.
