It's the start of a good concept, but right now it's not really a game, more of a proof of concept. If you make it so that the zombies attack the player, but are vulnerable to music, and you have to navigate levels playing different music to cause different dances (which cause different movements) then you've got a game!

thanks for good idea! yes, it's a proof of concept, original idea was to force zombies to some traps. Maybe will do it later.

Woah, I did a dancing game too :) I giggled a lot playing this, only gripe is it sort of hung up a few times and I couldn't get the strobe light to turn on. Cool stuff!

It's al very well done. Impressive.
Too bad there is not much of a game to it.
Had fun anyway.

it's bad ( could you share (by dropbox?) log.txt file from the root folder? btw it's DirectX 11 and OS from Vista.

A good start, but it could use some more gameplay mechanics.
If you're going to develop it, keep the wtf aspect in it :D
