Prewiew : In The Groove / Dance Dance Revolution

[thesinner]

Diagonal arrows, instead of up/down/left/right.
You might be able to find the MP3s of the songs in a torrent, I could get them for you if you need, just PM me.

Cheers

Can I ask how you managed to compile the source? Every time I try I get an error.

This is awesome, man. Keep up the good work. I'm excited for the screens that you are to be posting tomorrow.

I'll be posting about this on Touch Podium tonight - guaranteed!

Also, I'd love to be a beta tester once the game is near completetion. This way, I can not only test for bugs, but also, write up a post on what I think of the game once I've played with it for an hour.

Please, if this sounds like a decent deal to you, get back to me at jody.mitoma@gmail.com.

Take care.

Whenever you get someone around to coding or modying the TTR code it would be great to include these things:

-Non-spinning arrows or buttons as they come down (It appears you found the solution to this already though)

-Fail meter (The graphics you have look good, just implement it!)

-Ability to use your own music library for songs without wifi (I don't think people, myself included, like to have two copies of all the music they want to play on TTR)

I'm not sure how easily these could be done but it would be awesome if you could.

Patiently looking forward to a release.

Omg, I'll love you to death if you complete this, TTR IS SO BORING!!! It looks ugly, only 3 bars - not good enough. So happy. Having said that your work is quite nice for 10minutes, and I agree the arrows need touching up, maybe the bar too? It looks more blury then sharpened. Are you going to have more of those like "good job" "miss" stuff? Cause TTR only has 3, which is really lame I think we need atleast like 5... and sometimes it doesn't even say miss when you miss

And just an opinon, I think that black bar will affect the game, I think it will minimize the arrows, I think it's best if you leave out the black bar, or atleast reduce it double it size, OR better yet, have the EXIT and HIGH SCORE outlined by a neon color

Wow man! If you get this to work, it's gonna be SICK!

-There will be no spinning arrows.

-There is high chances that there will be a fail meter ( Won't look crazy at start but will work)
-About using your own music library, no idea yet if this will work.

AND about the diagonals arrows, we are not interrested in building a pump it up one, as almost nobody plays this one.

It will be tapping and maybe we'll try with arrows, like in yeti3d, but I don't really think so.

I just woke up so i'll start working on some parts and than post them.


IMPORTANT:
NO RELEASE DATE FOR NOW, my teamate coder NEVER programmed on an ipod and don't even own his yet, but he's sure he can do something that works. Im looking with him what we can do and checking what is possible for now.

This won't be a quick release, there will be some betas but thats it, I don't want this APP to suck and be spit on, we will release the final version and it will be PERFECT.

Thanks guy for the support and usefull comments
And thanks for for being patient.

it looks pretty nice i think i would play this over ttr

Here's an update, its not official that this will be used, but I hope so, took me hours to do.
This will let you choose between the 2 games, taking one from another will change theme/songs


Pretty much explains all, difficulty and settings.


Song selection wheel ( Really really hard to do). Not sure if we will use it.


AND FINALLY, ingame play.




""" Notify the metal dancepad at the bottom, im thinking about maybe making this the controls instead tapping the arrows, I would like the arrows to move from bottom to top instead of the inverse.

If you have any suggestions on how to upgrade the graphics and features or better ideas,
don't be shy to post here or add me on msn InTheGroove4Touch@hotmail.com

Thanks

Hmm.. not sure I like the control-pad on the last image... :/ Can't you just make it like TTR?
