The Goal of the Game? And how do I advance?
Stage "Dance Dance Revolution" is blocked off to me...do I need to reach a certain score?

Also is the point of the whole game simply scoring?

In singleplayer, each level has a set of preset waves, (usually around 2 or 3) the goal is to beat all the waves in each level without running out of health. Hopefully completing the stage before DDR without losing all your health will trigger the game to unlock the next stage.

We wanted to do something more like a stars based score analysis so it wasn't JUST a completion unlock but we ran out of time and then ran out of money unfortunately. We'll be looking into it if it turns out we can keep the rights to the game but we'll also fully admit it was designed as a local multiplayer game with a single player laid on top for a challenge for the person who owns the copy. (We hoped it'd provide value to a player who bought it for playing with friends but still wanted to have a go at it solo.)

I hope that's helpful! We're taking a quick look at the unlock system to make sure it isn't bugged but we haven't seen any issues ourselves. If it's not to your taste and you're still in the alloted time period given by Steam, do feel free to refund, we totally understand!

Thanks for the info. I've kept it and shuffled it in my backlog under multiplayer games. =)
