At midnight, there will be a breakdancing competition, to the soundtrack from (what else) Breakdance. Rules are that you should breakdance like a character from the game, though bonuses will apply. Winner to be decided by audience response :)

In addition, each dancer will dance to a different breakdance remix
done by a Remix 64 remixer, thanks to our "Breakdance Remix" competition. (see other thread)

and (2) Breakdance, Happy Hardcore - it's got to happen!!

Chris, don't tempt me to dance.

People either laugh themselves to death or need an eye transplant, suffering physical damage due to the hideousness, after my dances. :(

That's the idea! Pain, suffering, humiliation and hilarity :)

Though I'll probably have to state that people should remain upright at all times: we don't want to call out the ambulance people :)

You know there's a clause which says remixers can dance to their
own track? :)
Yeah, I know, deeply unfair. Here's me giving a damn...

Apart from playing the game to get some inspiration, you'd better read the instructions with its beautiful illustrations and breakdancing guides. I scanned + OCR:ed it a few years ago for the Epyx Shrine:

There also is a glossary, suitable if you're going to have commentators as well as judges.

No, just judges... but in fact, the dancers will be judged on how entertaining they are, not how well they do it (though these two things may coincide), and it will depend on how loud the audience response is!

Conclusion: don't take it too seriously :)
