Rhythm Taichi XR turns your phone into a motion camera, and is compatible with most custom songs on beatsaver.com. Also available as a second screen for your phone or as a standalone VR game.
A VR headset with motion controllers, or a mobile phone with Rhythm Taichi installed, on the same WiFi / LAN network, is required to play Rhythm Taichi on a computer.
If using your phone and not able to connect, ensure that the game is not blocked by windows firewall, the network is treated as "private," and UDP multicast / broadcast is enabled on the router. Alternatively, tether internet from your phone to your PC.
For XR mode, check out the manual and FAQ.
Rhythm Taichi XR is the "star of tomorrow" winner of the "MMPose 'Infinity Pose' Demo Competition 2022".

3D Rhythm, reinvented
Rhythm Taichi takes a fresh new approach to 3D rhythm games. Slide your fingers gracefully along the paths traced on the screen, following the beats of the music - it's like practicing Taichi with your fingers!
Swipe with style, swipe with ease
Rhythm Taichi is built from the ground up, optimized for touch input. A carefully crafted pathing algorithm provides a comfortable yet challenging amount of finger travel for each hand. We've also ruthlessly optimized the game's graphics and networking pipeline to ensure that the game responds quickly and smoothly to your actions.
Looks good, feels good too
The new touch tracking algorithm is more precise then ever - and with the innovative 'rainfall' style timing effects, you get instant feedback on your synchronization performance. Finishing a song is just the beginning - compete against players around the world by perfecting your runs and submitting your scores on the leaderboard!
Thousands of supported songs
Rhythm Taichi maintains compatibility with the beat saver song format, and provides an in-game integration with the beat saver API for thousands of supported songs. If you don't wish your songs to be indexed within the game, specify that in the description of your song on beatsaver and send us an email at tempstudiogames@gmail.com with the link.
You can also download songs from beatsaver.com yourself and install them by extracting to the following directory:
