Made by: Game Dev Girls + 1 

 Game Necessities  

-Spinner

-Bollywood CD (should have 18 different Bollywood songs)

-CD player/computer 

 

It's that simple 

 

Rules

 Remember: green means easy, yellow means medium, and red means hard

 

Step 1: Divide yourselves into two groups

Step 2: Decide which group will be the judges and dancers

Step 3: The dancing group spins the spinner. Whatever colour the spinner lands on, that is the song category that must be played. The group must now look at the video and try to imitate the dance steps.

Step 4:Use the spinner to determine which difficulty to choose from. Green is easy, yellow is medium, and red is hard.  Choose a song from the difficulty level and imitate the dance. Everybody in the group has to participate.  At the end of the performance, the judges now have to disqualify the worst dancer.

Step 5:  Once the judges have eliminated a dancer, you switch. Now the judges become dancers and the dancers become judges. Follow step 3 again.

 

Winning the Game

Whoever is left standing after everyone has been eliminated wins the game. 

What if:

The same songs are chosen?

Answer: Songs in the same difficulty cannot be chosen again until the whole difficulty has been completed once.

More than two people are fairly good dancers?

Answer:  Do not eliminate them. Continue the game as normal.

There are too many people playing or vice versa?

Answer: There is a minimum of 4 different players or groups.  This allows for no stalemates in judging as the performing group cannot give a pass or not.  

Types of Play

There are two modes you can choose from.  Elimination or Point based rounds.  Both modes still use the same judging system however in Elimination if you fail two rounds you are eliminated, however you will still judge.  The point based system gives your group one point per pass on a round.   Decide how many rounds everybody wants to play. They can choose 3, 7 or 10 rounds.  The group with the most points win.

The winning group gets to single out a person to do a dance of their request.

 Creating the Game

We made the spinner out of cardboard and just cut it into a circle and coloured it the colours green, red, and yellow. The actual spinner was an actual  Bollywood dancer. It was an excellent idea on my part. 

As for the songs, we researched them on Youtube and other song sites. We made sure and picked the songs that were appropriate, has good dance steps, and fun as well.  

 

 

 It was fun making this game. In addtion, it was educational in terms of learning about the Indian culture. I got to listen and dance to some of the Bollywood songs played on our CD. I just thought it was interesting and fun. We had some good laughs.
