Will Yamove! Into The Next Dance #Exergame?

At NYU Game Center No Quarter Exhibition on Friday May 18, 2012 - Yamove! was on display  and is a a cooperative dance-battle style game (as featured on The Verge). Each pair of dancers makes up a dance and its up to the other pair of dancers to match the dance moves of the first pair on three different levels: creativity, intensity, and sync. Let's Boogie and get this game out on the App market! I think they're onto something big! "Would you dance with me?" now takes on a whole new meaning.
