Shuffle option.

[chamuco]

I really have no idea how hard this would be to program, but if possible I'd like to see a shuffle option.

What I mean by shuffle is that the system would randomly pick a different sequence for the steps. For example, in a whatever song, the arrow sequences are always the same, but in shuffle all the arrows that would usually be up could be either down, left or right.

The thing is that once you play a song over and over again, whether you like it or not, you learn the sequences and where's the fun/challenge in that?

Of course there could also be an even more challenging mode where all the arrows would be completely random.

But following the same beat, right? Otherwise you're better off playing to no music at all.

RE: Re: Shuffle option.

The problem is that you start to get some really stupid beats

also a lot of the arrows go to the music (not just the beat, the left right up down too)

like if there are two notes that go back and forth in the song, there is are two arrows back and forth in the steps. (a trill)
If the songs goes down the scale it has a 6824 (num pad numbers for arrows). The same pitch often has the same arrow, it flows better and sounds better than just random.

Yes esupin, following the same beat, not just crazy arrows coming out of nowhere with no real purpose.

And chickendude, that would only happen in the completely random option I mentioned in my last paragraph. The shuffle I was talking about in the second paragraph wouldn't do that. For example, ALL the "usual" left arrows would be randomly chosen to appear as either "one" of the other positions, and the same with the rest of 'em, so the sequences would still be the "same" but with different arrows.

Sorry, I'm kinda bad explaining things *sigh* I hope I did it a little better this time.
