danceball

UNDER CONSTRUCTION! This is Danceball, a game where you move a triangle by pressing buttons on the beat and firing a bouncing color ball that breaks colored bricks, absorbing that color to be used to unlock dashed-line barriers of the same color so that you can get to the star and survive the song! There are five demo songs, press Control-R to randomly choose colors and a song. It is a work in progress and many things are not implemented yet. In the near future I will be working with a music licensing company to get lots more music into the game.

HOW TO PLAY:

Edit "danceball/config.lisp" to set up USB gamepad/dancepad.  I will have a proper setup screen soon. Or use arrows + shift key. For shields, press together up+down or left+right.

The little black and white sparkly asterisk that hovers around your character, indicates the direction of the star. 

For gamepads that can't register up/down or left/right simultaneously like a dance pad, assign the left and right bumpers in config.lisp.

Some gamepads have a software "D-pad" mode that may make the game moreplayable. Try consulting your manufacturer's gamepad instruction manual.
