Air Guitar Warrior is part music game, part scrolling shooter and full of rock attitude. Players will wield air guitars that double as weapons on a quest to find a legendary sword-guitar and challenge Heavy Metal Zeus at the top of the Temple of the Rock Gods.
History
Back in 2006, three university students wanted to build an air guitar game that would make rock stars out of everyone. Virtual Air Guitar Company was founded... yet disaster struck its first project, and it was never released. Now, after 11 years and 11 games, we've finally released a game with air guitars in it!
