Dancing Keeps Freezing
Everytime I finish a dance, the game just freezes. It runs fine with everything else, but there's something wrong with the transition from the dancing to the end cutscene of the dance. Is anyone else having this or has anyone found a solution to this problem? I'd hate to have to avoid the dancing aspect of the game, as I really like doing it, lol.

Same issue. But my game will not let me even play the mini game. Just zooms in on them and freezes. I am uninstalling and installing it back on but nothing yet.

I have given up on the game because that seems to be a main storyline. If anyone has a fix for it please let me know.

Found a fix that works for us. We turned the video and audio settings to the highest on the sliders that was allowed. It worked! We thought the whole time our vid card couldn't keep up, guess it just needed to go a bit faster. Good luck with yours mates.

I had the same problem (and it only started happening after a dozen hours of playing), but for me the solution was simply to wait. After several seconds the game resumed on its own.

I turned the settings up and it now works. Thank you Angus Runefire!

For me it consistently freezes when the dance starts when I have no audio device. As soon as I plug in my headset it works properly. As long as the headset is on an enabled, I have no trouble.

It seems to be something that builds up after a long period of play for me as well. Seems to be persistant in the save file because just saving, quitting and restarting doesn't fix it. But its never been more than about a 5 second hang at the end of the dance.

It never occured to me to run it on less than full settings, I mean this game would run fine on most modern electric toothbrushes its so old.
