Hit those barrels

You are on top of a train and have to destroy barrels, but beware that they don’t hit the ground.
A fun shooting game.
The levels are very short. Hope to see longer levels….

A barrel blasting good time!

Barrel Beats is a fast and fun on-rails shooter set in a cowboy-themed Far West world. The twist? You score extra points for hitting barrels at the very top of their arc, adding a clever rhythm challenge to every shot.

Jump into Party Mode for fresh music tracks, colorful light shows, and an atmosphere that makes it perfect for showing off VR to friends. Keep an eye on the sky — even the clouds are part of the experience!

Upgrade your weapons as you play to unlock more variety and keep the action exciting. The design is simple, polished, and easy to pick up, but with plenty of depth to keep you coming back.

Whether you’re chasing high scores or just looking for something fun and unique, Barrel Beats is a stylish VR shooter with hours of replayability.

Cowboy Rhythm Shooter with Style

Barrel Beats is a fun on-rails shooter with a creative Far West and cowboy theme. The twist is clever—you earn extra points when hitting barrels at their highest point, adding a rhythmic layer that keeps you engaged and aiming for perfection.

There’s also a great party mode with fresh music tracks and an impressive light show (don’t forget to look at the clouds!). The design is simple but highly effective, with upgradable weapons that give a real sense of progression and variety as you play.

As an indie title, it’s very well thought out and polished, offering a few solid hours of enjoyment with strong replayability. A great all-rounder for anyone looking for something unique, stylish, and fun in VR.

Simple but challenging

I got the key from FB.
Barrel shooting with gun reloading timing is like the Pistol Whip but relatively very simple and requires precise targeting. At first, the levels are easy to complete but it requires gun upgrading and timing control when progressing.
I hope there is option for reloading action of downwards like Pistol Whip not upwards. And hoping reloading sound is synchronized to completion by which the shooting timing can be sensed intuitively.

Thanks so much for sharing your experience! It's fantastic to hear how Barrel Beats VR delivers a gameplay style that’s “Simple but challenging.” Your feedback about the reloading mechanics—especially preferring a downward motion like in Pistol Whip—is super insightful. Syncing the reloading sound more intuitively with gameplay timing is a smart suggestion that could make the experience even more satisfying and responsive. Game design is all about those intuitive touches, and your input is gold—thank you!

Great Rhythm Game

Barrel Beats! What a great little gem of a game!

Shoot barrels to the beat off the top of a moving train!! And don’t be fooled it may look easy, but it’s no mean feat as you have to get the timing of your loading right in order to catch that next beat!

great thing also is you can upgrade your loading time and ammo amount as you play along and upgrade with stars!

For £2.99 you can’t go wrong! Great fun!

It’s a barrel of fun 😅
