Well, my adaptor came about an hour ago. I immediately plugged it in and installed the manufacturer's driver. Then I stomped on the pad, observing which buttons did what. Then I had to make a game.

Some may remember THIS thread, where I showed my One Key Game:

I changed the game to 1) make the left and right pads speed up the ship, so I could run faster to make the ship go faster, and 2) make the back pad drop the weapons.

It works GREAT! I'm out of breath as I type this. :)

I'm SO geeked about the potential of making my own, unique dancepad games for the PC. I'm excited about the health benefits, AND the financial potential.

Banzai!

That's pretty cool!

I need to lose some weight, so if you can make a game that lets me work up my fitness level smoothly so I don't have a heart attack on level 1, I might buy it!
