My first Steam game was nowhere near being a commercial success. It was a disaster in a lot of ways, but now that nearly 2 years have passed, I'm able to look at it from a different perspective, and realize where I went wrong (and why). And honestly, it's not that bad. It has helped me tremendously with my next games Popmoji and Le Château and even with whatever project I'm working on next!

actual description
Dance Assembly is a sandbox character creator game where you can make anything you want, and make it dance. Literally, ANYTHING.
Right before Dance Assemblys launch, I made a little post to promote it, which showed a TV like character with a green screen where its screen would normally be. With the power of visual effects (and a lot of jank), I made it look like the well known and beloved Inception effect where you could see a screen inside a screen inside a screen, etc.
People loved the effect, and I wondered if I could add that to the game somehow.
It wasnt an easy effect to add, but the results are incredible.
Oh and you can make your creations super wide like the wide memes. Probably my favorite new feature. Enjoy!
