this is an "if you know you know" but I was directed to this tournament chart for footswitch training. I actually managed to nail the first half of the song! but the faster part in the second half got me. good try. I think I need to practice to get it drilled in muscle memory a bit more.
I also helped a couple of players with the game. they seemed to have DDR experience but weren't used to navigating Simply Love's menus. one of them played a credit with me! these sort of social experiences make me ☺️ about coming to the arcade.
