==Gameplay==
The game is a Flash version of Dance Dance Revolution where notes fly up the screen as music plays. The goal is to earn the most points by hitting notes as they reach the green line at the top. There's no gauge that stops the game if too many are missed unlike DDR. Instead each note contains part of the music so the song will sound glitched if one's missed or hit at the wrong time.
There are 3 songs to choose from with several different control options: one using arrow keys, a second for typing and another for the mouse. Difficulty levels are available as well, which raise or lower the number of notes that appear.

*The keys in typing mode form sentences when put together. Every song has at least 1 unique sentence for each difficulty level.

****"Some people collect marbles, others collect pictures. Me? I collect pens. Not on purpose, but I do have a lot of them. No pencils."

***Hard:
****"Gibberish is a generic term in English for talking that sounds like speech, but has no actual meaning such as the mave's rint ist slanpehed up uthep yongrish. This meaning has also been extended to meaningless text or gobbledygook: hogtdkypots"
****"Silly painter man seeks solitude in the Canadian wilderness. Overly opaque peanuts are all the rage in Sydney. Potatoes contain starch. The man decided to ask why now... shortly after he wished he had not. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

*It's impossible to play the official game with Flash Player versions above 19, as Flash's version checker only reads their first number ("3" instead of "30") and won't let it load.
