In what way does your game fit the theme?
You are shown a sequence of dance moves, then the moves rewind and you try to dance the memorised moves.

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I made all the assets from scratch, except the music (which i have listed in the description).

nice game tho...this game is different and unique keep it up !!!

Developer

Thanks, I appreciate it :)

I really like how you took a different approach to the theme. However, it gets boring very fast. And it would be great if you add a tutorial.

Cool concept! I don't really know about dances move name. After so much mistake, then i figured out the dances move. Adding little tutorial like Give a name the dance move above him at first time the character doing it. It would be good for someone like me didn't know about dance at all.

Overall, It was fun and I enjoyed the game. Great job :D

I enjoyed playing it!! Music and theme were awesome! There possibly could have been a tutorial to better explain the game but great job! :)

Developer

Thanks, I'm happy you enjoyed it

Nice game! The art was great and the music was well chosen. I like the concept, it can be much better executed. There could also be a better tutorial on maybe like how the dance steps look like (im a dance amateur hehe) Great job though! 

Feel free to help try and rate my game, im quite low on ratings right now, Thanks!

Developer

Nice, little simon says game. The "rewind" animation is neat, and I like the idea about dance moves. Two things though that I would change:

1. There is no punishment for getting the wrong dance move, you can just spam all buttons at once, and the game will still continue to the next level.

2. You should make clear at start which dance move has which name.

Other than that, a small fun game.

Developer

Thanks! I totally agree; both these things are missing and could be implemented in the future to make gameplay feel more complete.
