Gameplay

The gameplay is similar to the SingStar set of video games. Players are required to sing along with music in order to score points, matching pitch and rhythm. The game has anticheat technology whereby tapping or humming will register on the screen but no points will be awarded. We Sing Pop! also contains the addition of 'Star Notes' that allow the player to score even more points by matching the pitch and rhythm of certain hard to score parts of songs.

  • 30 full licensed songs with music videos where available
  • Solo Modes - Solo, Blind and Expert.
  • Multiplayer modes - Group Battle, We Sing, Versus, Pass the Mic, First to X, Expert, Blind, Marathon.
  • Real Karaoke mode

gollark: But why?
gollark: Mostly they're just fancy GUIs and a few bundled programs.
gollark: Well, "real"er than average.
gollark: There are not many real OSes for CraftOS anyway.
gollark: People see CraftOS's blank outdated looking shell and go "hey, this looks outdated, I can make a GUI for it so it looks more like an 'actual computer'! I can't believe the CC developers didn't think of that!"
