Partner Dance 💃

Step, slide, spin onto an ever-shifting dance floor with a partner who will follow your lead. Take some risks, or take it easy and practice at your own pace. Build up combos for flashy effects while your partner encourages you to show off!

Actually learn how to dance

I loved this game! I feel like after just 30 minutes playing time I already had the hang of the salsa. And I am NOT a dancer. Can't wait to see what other dance styles they come out with next. Overall, a super fun game and impressively realistic. This is one I'll play again and again.

Just what i was hoping for!

I got out my old quest 2 just for this game, been watching this project since the Kickstarter. It's as good as I was hoping! Can't wait for more updates! 🤩🤩

Great way to start dancing.

Oculus should have launched with a dancing game as engaging as this. I got to dancing quickly. Great game and I hope it grows into beatssaber.

A REAL VR DANCE SCHOOL

The way the partners react is amazing: you guide their hand, you link a step, you attempt a more ambitious move, and everything remains fluid and intuitive. It creates a great atmosphere, even in your living room!

Between the training modes, the "Match Me" style solo choreography, and the announced future styles, you can feel the desire to make dance accessible, fun, and rewarding.
The MR/VR transition adds a real thrill, as if you're traveling with your partner from one setting to another.

Trip The Light manages to make learning fun, accessible, and rewarding.
It's a dance companion that puts you in a good mood and makes you want to progress day after day, step by step!

It's a start...

It has potential. I like it more as a learning tool than to free dance which feels weird. I mean it's cool, but I enjoyed the Salsa lesson portion of it more as it had guidance. Price point is hard to beat, I'll keep it and see what it does. In my time in VR, devs seem to abandon these games after a bit. I hate that the stars don't show right. I gave it 3 stars, not 5.

Great feedback, thank you for trying the game R2-3PO! Really appreciate it! :-)

Could you provided specifics on what you mean by "the stars don't show right", so that we may investigate?

Don't worry, we're just getting started and have lots of cool stuff coming!
