DanceDanceRevolution UNIVERSE4 (10/2022 UPDATE)

DanceDanceRevolution UNIVERSE4 is a project inspired by the music of Walk it Out and DDR Classroom Edition. Check it out HERE

I would love to see something like that, considering the loss potential of Universe 4 not becoming a thing considering DM Ashura said that all if not most of the songs in Walk It Out was gonna be in what Universe 4 was if it did existed.

---

The songs are pretty good and they do have the feel of a Universe version, Still bummed konami stopped making console games.

So out of curiosity where can you even find the Walk It Out! songs to listen to? Also if there isn't a place could you upload the songs?

Also I'd be down to see a pack of it!

I’ve always been curious about the music from these games. And it’s been quite some time since I’ve made any simfiles so yeah, I’m down for a pack of these songs, as well as contributing to it.

Yeah, I'd also be willing to help with this.

@Cytex here is link to someone who uploaded a few a while back, I'll figure out how I'll upload mine once I get the project rolling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2K43qCF4Heg

@NEMESetup and eataninja awesome and thanks for volunteering, I'll see if we can get more attention/traction and figure out a plan (how to assign songs etc)

I'll be willing to help, too.

---

I'd be willing to help as well.

---

I will consider helping once I'm done with my DDR NovaMAX project.

---

.

Will you be uploading the songs publicly so everyone can have a listen to them? Thanks in advance!

wait omg i could help step

---

@cytex I will be sharing the files with those who will be working on the project first.

@SomethingRandom great, I'll reach out to you and the others who have volunteered

Project update, see first post

I want to know what designs are going for the Banner/jacket/BGs.//

---

Our plan is to design graphics similar to the X/X2 CS style. Since both games (DDR CE/WIO) don't have in game graphics for the songs it will be up to the artist working on the specific song.

y'mean a screenshot of a video with black/white text over the top for every banner?

---

They didn't really do that for Universe 3 though, so Universe 4 will follow whatever Uni3 did
on another note, I was hoping Uni4 would have a purple color scheme, and i don't expect whatever Uni4 could've been to look like WiO bc that game is aimed towards more families so they'd have a more friendly color scheme, but the Universe series is more towards older audiences so (and since Uni4 was a 2009 game im assuming, they would've used the 2009 logo with the standard universe text instead of the more old-school ddr styled logo)

---

If I had to guess, I don't think who ever is doing graphics will do what Universe 1+2 did, maybe they might take a screen shot of a bg clip from those 2 games and put text on it like what Universe 3 did. Whatever might happen, I'm quite interested of what the result might be.

---

I see where you're coming from. I took inspiration from the WIO cover and the color palettes from both DDR CE/WIO and the Universe logos with my own take. We are still in pre production and things may change (I know I find myself going back to tweak things I work on)


Like I mentioned on a previous post, myself and anyone else working on graphics will be taking inspiration from the X/X2 graphics to create these (since there are no in game graphics for DDRCE/WIO)


EDIT 3/20/21:
Production has started but we are still looking for a few more volunteers to join our graphics team. We have reached out to everyone who has volunteered so far, if you haven't heard from us please PM me.
