This David Lynch-inspired dancing game lets players recapture surreal scenes from the cult 90s TV series.
Twin Peaks was full of totally surreal dancing scenes: think back to Leland's sad, shuffling possessed dancing, accompanied by forgotten songs from the 40s and Broadway standards, or to the unforgettable dream scene with Laura Palmer and The Man From Another Place.
In the 'Fire Dance With Me' dancing game, players can choose to be one of multiple characters from the series, including the magical log. They use Dance Dance Revolution-style moves to out-dance their opponent.
The novelty dancing game was created for DUPLICADE, a game-making jam in which designers compete to produce player versus player games which can be won in 30 seconds or less.
