[AC] StepManiaX produced by Kyle Ward

This doesn't look like DDR, PIU, ITG, or anything else to you that looks related?

He was responding to Arrows&Beats' post.

There was a video when ReRave was still a work in progress. They took it down a long time ago.

So far the songlist looks awful (imo)

Wow, licenses by the same artists that DDR licensed from! Loving the creativity

Thanks to whoever took footage of the interface! So far it has potential, and the Options screen has me a bit excited; I'm imagining that you can unlock new noteskins and songs if you use an IC card, but I am hoping that there will be some more modes added in the final version (like a Quest/ITG-Style Nonstop mode, which would be much bigger and more personalized now).

EDIT: Same guy uploaded gameplay footage as well, in glorious streak-o-vision (TM).

It's a very Kyle Ward songlist.

Which is what I was worried about. Welp.

Glad you all are liking my heavy modded version of StepMania.

There it is. An officially titled StepMania arcade machine. I am definitely supporting this.

No, it's Step ManiaX. Like Dance Maniax

Even the announcer confirms it

> The 7th Element
Vitas?! YES.

Here's footage of the first-ever PFC (or in this case, 6-Star) on Mexi Mexi!
Tl;dr, highest score you can get is 100K/6 Stars, but it doesn't show due to a scoring glitch as mentioned on the video's description.

The thing that absolutely worries me the most about this machine having seen this video is how the monitor appears to be shaking quite a lot during gameplay, presumably because its mounted directly to the pads (which also look really really close to the screen for my liking). I can definitely see monitors potentially getting damaged in the long run from heavier people playing on them unless they put some extra support behind them

Ok, first off, there were only like 3 of them (Dream a Dream, Ready to Fly, Dabbi Doo), two, several of them were already in other Kyle projects (Ni-Ni in PIU Pro 2, Captain Jack in RERAVE), three, is that a bad thing? They definitely bring variety to the more modern EDM focused setlist, and they can help hook in players from other game series, just like Ba Be Loo Be Ra, Mexi Mexi, and I Love You Baby for the PIU players.

It still has StepMania in the title, though.

This is the first thing that I think when I heard StepmaniaX



Now getting back to the thread theme, I think the "product" is the Pad, not the software, I don't have a proble with the use of the Stepmania word in the name, but StepmaniaX existed a lot of years ago, he could use another suffix or prefix, or change the name completely. Is not a final product, he could do it. I can't judge without test it, or check some videos, but I like the pad materials, make it look different.

Watching that gameplay, I can't help but think the game looks really straining on the testicles.

You pronounce it StepManiacs, though. :/


no its not ok its ripping off the game by my japanese overlords


All I can say is... never play doubles.

---

I DO play doubles. Or do you mean on that game?

In this game. That is, if doubles is a thing. I assume it is.
