DanceJump is a small browser-based, DDR-style rhythm game that runs directly on top of YouTube videos. The Edge add-on was just approved, so it’s now available on both Chrome and Edge.
The idea is simple: press play on any YouTube video and get instant DDR-style gameplay. Step charts are auto-generated from the audio, so there’s no need to search for chart files or set anything up. With auto-charting, the goal is accessibility and low friction: making rhythm gameplay easy to access. It is still possible to load and play your stepfiles from disk for pro experience.
