A new party mode for 2 to 12 players that only needs 2 microphones. Players sing duels against each other, and before every duel a wheel decides the rule for this round. Every player sings equally often, and the player with the most points wins. - 20 rules: from short songs, medleys, double packs, duets and free song choice to rules that change what counts (golden notes, line bonus, target score, fewer points win, teamwork) or how many points there are (double points, all or nothing, point steal, lead counts, underdog bonus, jokers) - The rules on the wheel are drawn randomly for each game, or chosen manually: every rule can be set to always, random or never - Every rule on the wheel comes up once before any rule comes up again; rules already used are dimmed - Rules that need special songs are only used if the song selection has enough of them - The wheel spins with a running light that slows down, and the winner is celebrated at the end Co-authored-by: Florian Ostertag <flokuep@users.noreply.github.com>

1. About
Vocaluxe is a free and open source singing game, inspired by the original UltraStar (developed by corvus5) and the great Ultrastar Deluxe project - yet it is an entirely new development in C#. It allows up to six players to sing along with music using microphones in order to score points, depending on the pitch of the voice and the rhythm of singing. It features mouse, keyboard, gamepad and Wiimote navigation, a multi-language interface, and singer profiles with avatars and supports songs in CP1250/52 and UTF8 encodings. Vocaluxe offers diversified party modes and can optionally be controlled via a browser (desktop and mobile supported).
Supported Operating Systems / Requirements:
- Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 and Windows 11 with .NET 4.0
- Linux (no official support)
- 1 GHz CPU, 512 MB RAM, Graphics card with OpenGL 2.1 or DirectX 9.0 support
