Performous does not attempt to clone SingStar but rather has unique features such as scrolling notes and precise singing pitch display as a wave drawn on screen. As a reference, the lyrics, the notes and the singer's pitch are displayed on screen as the song plays. The gameplay is similar to SingStar: the game analyzes the pitch of each singer and scores the performance based on how precisely the song was performed. This part of the game is essentially karaoke, but with scoring and realtime feedback. Various background video formats are supported using ffmpeg.

Also, since version 0.3 the graphics rendering is based on OpenGL for high performance even on slower machines, with full effects, as long as any OpenGL support is available. The project was originally known as UltraStar-NG, but the name was changed in version 0.3 in anticipation of adding other instruments and to avoid confusion as the game is not a fork of UltraStar. A few months later work on the dance game feature began and even though it is not yet complete, the feature is already available on the development version of the game.

Adding more elements to the game was planned for several years and in 2009 first band game features were added and published on Assembly (demo party) game development competition. The project began as rewrite of the UltraStar singing game in October 2006, using C++ and targeting Linux. Performous is an open-source rhythm/performance platform that contains singing, guitar/bass playing, drumming and dancing all in one game. Īs of version 1.0.1 UltraStar Deluxe runs on Linux via Wine.

The team grew and the source code departed more and more from the original. This attracted the attention of other developers that were willing to help.

The first release is known as X-Mas mod, due to a release date around Christmas time. Instead Whiteshark started to add some features on his own with the help of Mota. Whiteshark initially offered to collaborate with Corvus5, but this offer was declined. UltraStar Deluxe was started as a modification of UltraStar. There are also ports available in C++ programming language for other operating-systems such as Linux, BSD and other UNIX platforms. The original UltraStar is programmed in Kylix/ Delphi and made for Microsoft Windows operating-system. UltraStar comes preloaded with a short sample from Nine Inch Nails hit Discipline from The Slip album. As the GNU GPL is a strong copyleft license, linking GPL code with BASS and distributing the result is a violation of the GPL. To use UltraStar, one must link the source code together with BASS. There's nothing telling which files the GNU GPL applies to or what versions of the license may be used.

The source code of UltraStar is released under GNU General Public License (a free software license) although the Windows and OSX binaries also include the non-free audio library BASS. Optionally a cover image, a backdrop image and a video may be added to each song. To add a song to UltraStar, a file with notes and lyrics is required, together with an audio file. UltraStar allows several people to play simultaneously by connecting several microphones possibly to several sound cards. On top of the correct notes UltraStar displays the pitch recorded from the players. UltraStar displays lyrics as well as the correct notes similar to a piano roll. UltraStar lets one or several players score points by singing along to a song or music video and match the pitch of the original song well. UltraStar is a clone of SingStar, a music video game.
