pydance 0.5.8
Posted by pydance in December 26th 2002
pydance is a dancing game written in Python, formerly named pyDDR. The
idea is simple. There’s a floor mat with arrows, and the game scrolls
arrows up the screen to the beat while playing a song. When the arrows
reach the top of the screen (not sooner and not later), the player
hits the corresponding arrow on the pad, and given that it’s hit on
time with the beat, points are scored. Based on how well the dance is
put together, s/he is graded at the end of the song. Both keyboard and
mat play are supported.
Changes: The game now forces stereo on all files (Oggs in particular). It now looks recursively in subdirectories for song data and will also attempt to guess at a song file if one is not specified in the STEP file. Lyrics can be in another color and are configurable from pyddr.cfg. The song selector is improved with a 10 second music previewer, and pageup/pagedown (mat also!) support. DWI2STEP no longer crashes on oddly written DWI files, and both it and the game have other fixes.

mat play are supported.
Changes: The arrow positioning code has been rewritten so BPM changes work (holds only sort of). Crashing on alternate scrollspeeds should be fixed. The song selector doesn’t take time between songs anymore, it starts fullscreen with the mouse cursor hidden by default, and buttons defined in pyddr.cfg now work in grading screen. The game now recaps the framerate better, and has an option to help those using pyDDR with TVout. Finally, a STEP2DWI utility is now included.
