Lo My Inspiration

Just Dance is a party game staple that has reached millions of users worldwide with just one instruction: just dance! I admire the intention of the game, which is to allow users to have fun gaming without having to slouch on the couch for hours. As someone who plays various games with friends, I appreciate when they don’t cause me back and shoulder pain. Additionally, I remember being absolutely amazed by the movement tracking my first time playing, and wondering how the game knew when I was lifting the wrong arm or kicking too
late (I’m not the greatest dancer). Just Dance was created by Ubisoft Paris in six months using Perforce Helix Core, a commercial software they have been using since 2001. The creators were inspired by Dance Dance Revolution, another popular dancing game that had players stepping on arrows to the beat of music. The body tracking in this game points to the potential of technology that extends to a variety of fields, including games, animation, health, and education.
