Pump It Up

As dancing games rose in popularity, more and more games of this genre were created, one of them being Pump It Up, often called The 1st Dance Floor, by Korean developer Andamiro. Its songlist consisted of many popular Korean pop songs at the time of the game's release, with genres encompassing eurodance, rock, and hiphop.

Scrapped Song: Silhouette#

Watch on YouTubeThe files Sil_ez_1.stf and Sil_ez_2.stf inside folder datas/step in the game's disc consist of chart data for the scrapped song Silhouette, by Kim Hyun Jung. Judging by the files' title, it was likely meant to be played in the game's Easy mode. Animation data for the song also exists, and can be found in datas/BGA/SILUET.BGA. Contrary to what is displayed in the video on the right, music data no longer exists.
