Dance Dance Persecution

For this project I worked with illustrator @Lau_mccreadie to explore the special type of overwhelming anxiety that can only be felt on the DDR dancefloor.

I composed an original Eurobeat back track and had fun recreating the iconic User Interface design, new dancing character moves and manic backgrounds found exclusively in the world of Dance Dance Revolution.
