Dave Perry: We're working hard to see if there's a way to support most of the Dance mats that people already own. If that can be done, it will be. We are buying up a bunch of mats to see if we can get compatible with them all.

So you can choose to dance in keyboard or dance mat mode. You can create you own room to dance in, you can invite others, you can become a couple and dance in what the Asians call "Lover Mode". Or you can create a group (like a guild) and have full on group dance battles, taking turns, which is extremely high pressure as all your friends are not just watching, they're relying on you!

FiringSquad: It sounds like DANCE! will have a social and even a dating aspect to it. Can you go into more detail on that?

Dave Perry: Once you're looking good and dancing well, you can expect to find your perfect mate, fall in love, become a couple; enter couples competitions together, and even GET MARRIED!! These are all activities that will help build communities and a change the player's personal experiences. We really hope to bring a ton of women to Dance. I recently read that Peter Molyneux feels we need to make games that "make you feel". What more feeling comes from getting married in a game? Of course we'll have to work on a way for people to get divorced too, without having to lose half your virtual items!
