I saw Game X in a Heaven Studio remix, but I can't find it in the editor/I’m getting “No Game” when playing a chart!
It was probably a game from the Nightly build! It's a special beta build of Heaven Studio you can download from our Github Page. In it, you can find games in progress for the next release! Be advised, though - games in the Nightly build are liable to be unfinished, unstable, and in a state of constant working and reworking. Don't say we didn't warn you!
Thank you for helping me but I'm not really sure what to really download so if you could help me how and where i could download monkey watch for heaven studio it would help me a lot
i like this but my main problem is that in literally every remix it expects you to have prior knowledge or know how to play certain games. which i dont
I'm gonna be blunt, Heaven Studio really is very much intended for people who have played the actual games before, we don't have detailed tutorials for all 52 games because it would just be a nightmare to set up and manage. If you're having trouble with a specific game there will always be people in the Discord who are happy to help, I think.
I've reached out to them about it beforehand, just around a year ago now, and we discussed it a bit then. I believe Louie prefers to keep Rhythm Hell as a separate thing, which we respect! If they ever change their mind for any reason, we'd be happy to have it in, but for now that's the status on it :)
during some games I downloaded on the discord, certain parts of the song it just shows a grey screen with no game in the center, what is the fix for this

[Question] Hey, I read in the discord server, The Xbox Controllers(Xinputs)And Dual Joy-Cons are not supported yet but will be in the future, Is there any programs i can use to emulate keyboard taps on controller?
Absolutely love this and been playing everyday since it came out, but i’ve been wondering if we could make it so the game doesn’t run at an unlocked fps, is there a fix for this?
I just got an issue where it said it can't be checked for malicious software. If you go to your settings then "privacy and security", if you scroll all the way down there should be a bit that says heaven studio was blocked if you click open anyway next to it the next time you try to open it it should give you the option to open it and it'll run like normal 👍
Replaced the discord link, but it should be okay regardless. The youtube account has been terminated for a while though, yes. If we ever want to share videos we'll be posting them through the twitter
hey so when I double click on the RIQ files to play the game, a screen pops up with "Error Loading RIQ". Does anyone else have the same issue and if so do you know how to fix this
I see a lot of people have already given this feedback, but I'd love for the editor to have some sort of practice mode feature. That way, custom remixes can all have their own tutorial which would make it WAY easier for newcomers to understand how to play.
You open the .riq files by launching the game and clicking on "Play", then selecting one of them in the file selector.
If you do want to open the minigames directly outside of the game by double-clicking them, you can go into the file properties for any riq file and and associate it to run with the Heaven Studio executable instead. (I image they're opening up like zip files for you by default)
i cant open the game though, do i need to run any commands in linux or something to play it?
edit: i can play, but i cant just open the heaven studio file, i have to run a command in terminal, do i need to set an app to launch it? if so, what app? right now (for some reason), it opens a my singing monsters app, but does nothing else.
You might have to set an executable bit on the file. You can do that in the file properties in most file managers, OR by navigating to the directory in a terminal and typing:
chmod +x "./Heaven Studio"
If that gives a file not found error, make sure you're in the same directory as the file and make sure to type it out instead of copying it because I don't know if this comment section is modifying any characters I'm typing.
Hi! i just downloaded the game and in the "press any key" screen i cant do anything and i cant enter the menu, is there a reason, or is there something i need to do?
Which platform are you running the game on? This may occur on certain versions of Linux, should be fixed soon if it's that, just narrowing down which issue it is
i dont know how to open the game..... i downloaded the zip and extracted it and started looking for the game file but i cant find it anywhere and when i click anything it just sends me to the notebook app with weird letters
Xbox is planned for the next release! Xinput is just a little tricky to work with, so bear with us for a bit.
In the meantime, if you really want to use an Xbox controller, you can always use something like JoyToKey or Steam Input to remap your buttons to controller keys.
yeah, unfortunately latency calibration isn't really a thing a game like rhythm heaven allows for, the best we can do is rework the audio engine to get it to be as low latency as possible, akin to what bits & bops does. we're planning to do that down the road, but for now we've gotta live with it
GLITCH: Code Remix stops working after a minute or so. The screen just goes black, the sound effects stop, and the background music keeps playing. All controls stop working — even Esc., leaving me no choice but to force quit and restart the program.
SUGGESTIONS:
While having the file window (in Mac) pop up each time you go to choose a level isn't a huge issue, an in-program level select would be much nicer.
This could really use an in-program control guide for the original RH minigames (when it comes to the remixes) too; not everyone remembers each minigames' controls, much less how they translate over to the current control scheme they're using. The control guide website is fine but I don't like having to tab out of the game to go find the controls, especially since I don't know the names of each minigame and therefore have to scan down the list to see if the controls for a minigame match the description of what I'm seeing in the program.
Also, this could really use some sort of adjustable 'lag buffer' setting, letting one who has slight input delay with their control setup (due to Bluetooth or otherwise) choose how much buffer they want to set for the button press detection. It would probably offset just the detection while keeping the graphics and visual/audio timing the same. It's just hard to go for a Perfect when you have to press the button a fraction of a second early in order for it to get recognized as being on time.
Otherwise this is really fun and very well-made. A great way to play RH inspired things for someone like me who doesn't have a current easily-accessible way to play official RH games (unless they decide to finally make one for the Switch).
Code remix bugging out is a known issue with Lockstep on Mac, should be fixed in the next release, hopefully! Integrated level picker and an in-game timing display are also planned. Thank you so much for playing <3
All games from RH are planned to be added eventually, it's just a matter of who wants to work on what. I will say though that out of these, the next major release will likely have most of them :)
Heaven studio keeps telling me "File at path [directory i put the audio in] is of unknown type" ive tried many different things and it doesn't work, what's going on?
This exactly. You can just download, extract and run it. I've added it to Steam as a non-Steam game and there are even nice custom cover pictures for it.
We eventually plan to make a build tailored specifically for the deck, but until then, one of our community members, Vincells, has graciously put together a nice little guide that should work for now. Just know that things may break :)
Doesn't work on Linux (Ubuntu 23.10). Only keys F3 and F4 work. Downloaded Windows version. Stops registering inputs when leaving the game screen at all.
Linux version works great here (Steam Deck, nothing special done). Maybe running it on the terminal will give clues about why it doesn't run on your system?

Thank you so much
I can't drag from the “Select game event for X” box to the timeline. win11
how do I play on linux
i like this but my main problem is that in literally every remix it expects you to have prior knowledge or know how to play certain games. which i dont
They have a control guide linked
which just tells you what the buttons do. when do i press those buttons? Wait what are the buttons again because I literally can't remember
I'm gonna be blunt, Heaven Studio really is very much intended for people who have played the actual games before, we don't have detailed tutorials for all 52 games because it would just be a nightmare to set up and manage.

horrifically late reply but yeah that makes sense
You should work with the folks that did Rhythm Hell 👀 It'd be so fun to see that game "in-universe"!
I've reached out to them about it beforehand, just around a year ago now, and we discussed it a bit then. I believe Louie prefers to keep Rhythm Hell as a separate thing, which we respect! If they ever change their mind for any reason, we'd be happy to have it in, but for now that's the status on it :)

I cant use my controller that the only thing wrong with it some stick drift and I plugged it into my pc.
nvm its a xbox controller which for whatever reason doesn't work
I've downloaded the game but the monkeys on the watch are not there it shows no game?
you need to download the nightly build
during some games I downloaded on the discord, certain parts of the song it just shows a grey screen with no game in the center, what is the fix for this
copying this from the faq

[Question] Hey, I read in the discord server, The Xbox Controllers(Xinputs)And Dual Joy-Cons are not supported yet but will be in the future, Is there any programs i can use to emulate keyboard taps on controller?
rewasd! it might introduce input lag but i can't say for sure as i haven't personally tried it.
Absolutely love this and been playing everyday since it came out, but i’ve been wondering if we could make it so the game doesn’t run at an unlocked fps, is there a fix for this?
I freaking love this
it does not let me open the file on macbook??
Me too, it says that the file is damaged and can't be opened. pls help
I just got an issue where it said it can't be checked for malicious software. If you go to your settings then "privacy and security", if you scroll all the way down there should be a bit that says heaven studio was blocked if you click open anyway next to it the next time you try to open it it should give you the option to open it and it'll run like normal 👍
Every time I connect my joy cons together my game crashes. Any way to fix this issue?
it says the youtube account was terminated.. and also all the discord server invites (link https://discord.gg/5rdEq2SFNj & the one here on itch https://discord.com/invite/2kdZ8kFyEN) posted seems to be expired
Replaced the discord link, but it should be okay regardless. The youtube account has been terminated for a while though, yes. If we ever want to share videos we'll be posting them through the twitter
I can't connect my Xbox controller to play with Heaven Studio, would using SteamInput work?
Yeah, that should work
I tried that and it still didn't detect it.
You need to map it to keyboard inputs
My game is stuck on the "Press any Key!" screen, and no matter what button I press I cant go ahead, anyone know whats wrong? (Im on Linux Ubuntu)
Got the same problem also on (K)ubuntu
Yep, this is a problem on some versions of Linux right now, we hope to have it fixed in version 1.1 when that drops
I also have the same problem on Ubuntu, but I am able to play version 1.
I am confused as to how you open the game
it is a zip folder bro
hey so when I double click on the RIQ files to play the game, a screen pops up with "Error Loading RIQ". Does anyone else have the same issue and if so do you know how to fix this
the .riq files are meant for you to load using the play button ingame.
This is very nice there should be support for adding images though (idk how it would work though)
This is so awesome, amazing work!!
I see a lot of people have already given this feedback, but I'd love for the editor to have some sort of practice mode feature. That way, custom remixes can all have their own tutorial which would make it WAY easier for newcomers to understand how to play.
downloading before nintendo comes for them
do i need a certain app to open it on linux? right now when i double click it does nothing but open a random app.
You need to extract the zip, extract the tar file with the same program you opened the zip in, then double click Heaven Studio.
i've done that, but double clicking doesnt open heaven studio, it opens a random app
Make sure you have permission to execute it. Open the terminal where your file is and type "chmod +x Heaven\ Studio"
i used the command successfully, but its still opening the random app
when i press download nothing happends why?
that could just be an itch.io glitch
Hello, when will the next version be released and when will the accessibility feature be implemented??
what file do i open to play on linux? also, if its in the txt files, i cant open them :/
also, is there a certain thing im supposed to use to open the .riqs? rn, its just showing 2 random things as options to open it with
You just open the file named "Heaven Studio"
i try that, but it opens a random app that has nothing to do with heaven studio
You open the .riq files by launching the game and clicking on "Play", then selecting one of them in the file selector.

ok so im on windows and i dont know what im doing when i click on download

Which platform are you running the game on? This may occur on certain versions of Linux, should be fixed soon if it's that, just narrowing down which issue it is
would chromebook be one? im having the same issue.
i have the same problem, i am on windows
Same. I'm using Linux Mint
i dont know how to open the game..... i downloaded the zip and extracted it and started looking for the game file but i cant find it anywhere and when i click anything it just sends me to the notebook app with weird letters
Sorry, have you run Heaven Studio.exe? That's how you run the game
were do you run studio.exe theres no option for that?
Are you Elon Musk by any chance?
When is Xbox input going to be added? my only controller is a 360 wireless controller ;-;
Xbox is planned for the next release! Xinput is just a little tricky to work with, so bear with us for a bit.

I got banned from the discord. I didn't even do anything : /
what was your username? i can look into this
My user is fx247
Hi! You were banned for having your pronouns set as a racial slur. Hope this helps :)
my bad 💀
nahhhh crazyy

Can u add Monkey Watch, Screwbot Factory, Donk Donk, Built to Scale Wii, Frog Hop, Catch of the Day, Bossa Nova, and Love Rap? (please)
All games from RH are planned to be added eventually, it's just a matter of who wants to work on what. I will say though that out of these, the next major release will likely have most of them :)
Can you please add some sort of calibration? My PC has lag and the game is super hard to play.
Heaven studio keeps telling me "File at path [directory i put the audio in] is of unknown type" ive tried many different things and it doesn't work, what's going on?
What format is your audio? Try to convert the audio into a different format? I can say .ogg files work 100%.
how can i get he audio to work on linux.
I was playing and tried to download the nightly version and the audio stopped working on borh version ( playing on steam deck btw)
Does anyone have a guide of how to add this game on a Steam Deck?
have you not tried just downloading the linux version and adding it to Steam from desktop mode
This exactly. You can just download, extract and run it. I've added it to Steam as a non-Steam game and there are even nice custom cover pictures for it.
We eventually plan to make a build tailored specifically for the deck, but until then, one of our community members, Vincells, has graciously put together a nice little guide that should work for now. Just know that things may break :)

If you add Love Lizards, how are the controls gonna work?
Doesn't work on Linux (Ubuntu 23.10). Only keys F3 and F4 work. Downloaded Windows version. Stops registering inputs when leaving the game screen at all.
I just want the Linux version fixed please.
Linux version works great here (Steam Deck, nothing special done). Maybe running it on the terminal will give clues about why it doesn't run on your system?
How do you get it on steam deck?
Download the Linux version, extract the zip, extract the tar, game is in the newly extracted folder. It should just run.
Stoked to use this! Apparently, some games are missing, so I have a reason to stick to Remix Editor for now. But this looks super awesome!
