DanceClone is a DDR clone allowing people with GameCube-style dance mats to play stepmania-compatible files.
It uses SDL and runs on the Nintendo Wii using the Wiibrew channel. It also runs on Linux for testing and development purposes (keyboard only).
The original code for DanceClone version 0.50 by ThatOtherPerson. Development as of version 0.51 continued by Carl Lefrançois.
Installation
Extract the .rar to the apps directory on your SD card.
To add songs, copy your mp3 and steps exported in .sm format (from DDreamStudio for example) onto your SD card.
Controls
Use the D-Pad on either a Wii mote, a classic controller, a GameCube controller or ideally a GameCube dance mat.

v0.3 2010/05/11

- The scrolling Boo/Good/Perfect ratings are now properly cleared out when a song ends or is exited rather then remaining and waiting for you to start a new song.
- Added text at the bottom of the screen displaying your performance.
- Added support for up to five different step placement tracks per song to allow for multiple difficulties.
- Step files used by the game now use a dc file name extension rather then dat. They must also now include information on what difficulty mode steps are to be associated with.
- An added title screen along with several other added or updated in game menus. The song selection menu for example now allows you to scroll threw available songs when there are too many to display on screen at once.
- Added a home menu screen from which you can return to the game, return to the homebrew loader, restart your Wii, turn off your Wii, save a screenshot in BMP format or do the same as a PNG format image. The home menu also displayed the time and date.
v0.2 2010/04/13
- Added audio support and a song selection screen.

- There is a menu to set some simple parameters with for how arrows should be placed when generating an arrow placement file for any song that doesn't yet have one.
- I rewrote everything so almost nothing is really exactly the same and I didn't get around to reimplementing any form of home menu.
v0.1 2009/11/28
- Started work on the game. No audio and steps are randomly placed.
