The user stands in front of a camera connected to customized software which transforms his or her silhouette into a pixelated image which is projected onto a large screen. While dancing to surrounding music, the user can mimic a given set of gestures to gain points. These gestures are pixelated snapshots of previous players. The system mimics the current player’s motions, and the player is can either choose to dance freely, or participate in the game and try to mimic the stored gestures of previous players.

Then, loud music is blared from speakers, and you are prodded to dance by inebriated onlookers. Your every move is projected on said large screen, with the intended goal being to reproduce preset dance moves for points. It’s a little like “Dance Dance Revolution”, only drunkerer, stranger and a hell of a lot more humiliating.
