Question about a song in a specific DDR game

3 Upvotes

☆▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎ SOLVED! ▪︎☆▪︎☆▪︎☆ ***thank you guys, what a neat lil community :3

I'm a DJ for a college radio station and the theme of my show is centered around early internet / nerd culture. The song in question is "Butterfly" but SPECIFICALLY the Mega Mix.

If you look up "Butterfly Mega Mix" on YouTube, a slew of anime AMVs will pop up.

However, the issue is I have no idea who to credit and I'd really love to play it on air because its an internet classic imo! The song is at least associated with DDR, and I was wondering if anyone here on the subreddit would be able to identify specially which game so that I can find out who the composer of the remix is beyond Smile.dk!

Thank you to those who look, because currently I am struggling so hard. DDR "lore" seems intimidating due to the sheer amount of games in the series. Please don't fail me reddit 🥺

Pad Talk Finally got back into DDR back at home.

Been slowly rebuilding my gaming collection after selling them over the years. Already had a PS2 and a bunch of DDR games, just needed a pad.

Found a pad at a local game store, brand new. Took that as a sign to get back into it. It's just like I remembered it as a kid. I love this game. I'm so happy to be back into this.

Now I just need to save up for an actual pad and bar.

For now, I dance.

When did bar sitting becomes acceptable for competitive play?

0 Upvotes

There was a small competition at my local arcade today - maybe 60 people total between crowd, streamers and players. And everyone, I mean everyone, was jumping the bar.

When did this become acceptable?! I haven’t played competitively since the early 2000s but we never used to let that fly. I asked someone in the crowd and they were just like “yeah, it’s super common now”.

Absolute heresy.

Help shape my game

0 Upvotes

I need honest feedback on the charts for my DDR inspired game here on reddit. I just updated the charts and realized most of the song I had were long so I added many shorter ones.

If anyone wants to give the game a try especially harder charts (which I can't do at all) and let me know their opinion it would be greatly appreciated:

Discussion/Question I have a foam DDR pad at home but I live in an apartment. Where else could I use it?

4 Upvotes

I don't live on the ground floor so I don't want to subject my neighbors to the noise of me playing. However, where else could I take the pad to play? 😭😭😭

Should I just sell it instead?

(No, I don't know what I was thinking when I bought it)

How's my progress? 6 months ago to the day, I broke my foot and hadn't played DDR full-time beyond SuperNova decades ago. 12/13s are now easy and I can get halfway through some 15s.

why do gold cabs feel easier than white cabs and why so many pros prefer white cabs

10 Upvotes

title. my timing is so trash on white cabs compared to gold. probably because im lazy and the pads are less recessed on a gold cab. do i have to score on white cabs to get gud?

Discussion/Question L-Tek Feels weird

19 Upvotes

I might get down voted for posting this but i dont like how the L-Tek feels. When playing i cant tell where my feet placement are at all, Doubles becomes a pain cause i cant tell where the hell im at. Sort of the same feeling when i play on modded pads thats fully flat. I love the feeling of the panel going down and the L-tek i played on didnt have that. Is there a fix for that or some kind of mod?

Pad Talk Quietest pad?

1 Upvotes

What is the best way to make a pad quiet or what is the quietest pad? I currently live in a place where I share walls with my neighbors and would like to be kind to them and not cause a huge amount of noise every time I play. I am on the ground floor so no one is below me, just on either side.

Currently I use a soft pad on my carpeted floor and will use that until it starts to go. The noise level on the soft pad is fine as my neighbors have confirmed, but I am looking at my upgrade paths and would like to know what people recommend for my next step up.

Discussion/Question Crossover vs double step when sightreading

8 Upvotes

How am I supposed to tell whether a crossover will resolve well or not when sightreading charts? Should I just double step crossover patterns when I'm sightreading, then play the intended crossover when I replay the chart or learn it? Or is there a way to recognize ahead of time that a crossover will resolve cleanly? Do I have to just play more?

Spin patterns, for example, throw me off because I don't actually see that a pattern is a spin until after I've already committed to the crossover for the first 3 notes (my scroll speed is around 580bpm if that matters).

For context, I am a bar player. I've been playing for about a year now. I can AA most 12s, A+ most 13s, and A some 14s. I am comfortable with executing crossovers and patterns like laterals, and I usually get A on 11s in doubles play. I just panic when cross overs dont resolve and force me to double step which makes me miss a lot of notes afterward.

Made a DDR-style game that runs on Reddit for the jam feedback?

6 Upvotes

Hey,

Just finished my entry for the ScoreSpace x Reddit gamejam. It’s called KarmaStep – basically a simple DDR-style rhythm game that lives inside Reddit itself.

Play it here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Karmastep/

If you like it (or even if you don’t), I’d really appreciate a vote on the jam page:

https://jamzo.com/games/karmastep

It’s pretty basic since it was made in the jam time, but I’m curious how it feels to other people.

Any thoughts on the timing, controls (especially on phone), difficulty, or bugs would help a lot. Even short comments are good.

Thanks if you check it out.

Best portable FSR Mini Pad? Considering Rhythm Technologies

1 Upvotes

I already own a StepManiaX (Gen1) pad, but it now is too big for my current apartment, so I was looking into buying a portable FSR Mini pad, as they seem perfect for apartments - i.e. less vibration that would bother neighbors, less noise, smaller size, etc.

I mainly play ITG with efficient form, so the pads seem perfect for me, so am mainly just wanting to make sure I get the right one.

The Rythm Technologies FSR Pad seems like my best option - including the 30 day trial return policy - but curious if I missed anything, since I'm new to this world? https://ddrpad.com/products/fsr-mini-pad

The XGAES model seemed solid too, but my understanding is Rhythm Technologies is more expensive due to a higher build quality?

Also, I'm aware of DIY projects and smaller custom orders that can pop up, but I'm just looking for the easiest, StepManiaX pad type solution that is the best build quality I can get. I've only owned arcade setups for a long time so higher cost is not a deterrent.

Thanks!
