That girl is poison!
A boombox to the left hand side displays your score and multipliers as well as your star rating. You are scored on how accurately you perform each move and aim to achieve a 5 star rating, similar to the star ranking system in the Rock Band and Guitar Hero games. As you perform a string of successful moves you build up a score multiplier, gaining you more points for each step. Due to the lack of a life bar as in previous Harmonix games it is presumed that you are unable to fail songs. The main screen shows dancers demonstrating the moves you must mimic in order to score points. If you fail to match the movement of the dancer, the part of your body which is at fault lights up on the dancer. Success is also measured by a ring at the bottom of the screen which fills as you perform the correct steps. To allow the player to know which steps are coming up the right hand side of the screen displays dance slides. These small diagrams complete with name allow the player to see which move he should currently be performing and which move will follow. As with previous Harmonix games, varying difficulty allows you to attempt more complex choreography as you improve.
