Here is the developer, Chistian Loclair.


He thought that freestyle dance will be converted into games.


In KinectDance EvolutionThere are games that compete as to whether you can dance a certain dance, but it is made with the idea of ​​whether you can compete with what you danced freely in the game.


For example, a game that aims for a high score with a dance technique if it is single play.


A game like competing for mutual dance if it is multiplayer.


After play it is the result that you can see the result which was bad about where you were good at your dance.



For that purpose, Kinect and the Wii remote control are used.


Movement when dancing with Kinect confirmed multifaceted.



I am watching that I am dancing like this.



On the Wii remote control, it seems to measure the rhythm to see if it is dancing to the music.



The controller setup is like this.


That means that you can read your movement firmly.



When this WiiPop is released, it is planned to announce it in open source, perhaps revolutionary dance games will come out. The timing is undecided yet.
