The timing result influences both the score and the player's DANCE GAUGE (ダンスゲージ). Continuously missing (Miss) or receiving timing judgments lower than Good (except O.K.) will drain the life gauge. After a while, if the player doesn't improve, this could lead to the game ending prematurely (getting a "Game Over", thus failing the song). A visual cue exists to help identify when the life meter is low; it goes from being rainbow colored (no misses in a while) to green and/or blue (a few misses) and finally to red (danger). Also, audio cues that help identify when the player is in danger of failing include a booing audience and the announcer encouraging the player to stop missing notes. The gauge usually starts at half its capacity and is shown in green and/or blue by default. Prior to DanceDanceRevolution (2013), the DANCE GAUGE was known as the dance meter in the game tutorial. | The timing result influences both the score and the player's DANCE GAUGE (ダンスゲージ).

Since DDRMAX, the standard DANCE GAUGE is often replaced with a stricter gauge such as [[DDR AC General Info|RISKY or LIFE4]] during a special event called an EXTRA STAGE which is unlocked after fulfilling one or more conditions. | Since DDRMAX, the standard DANCE GAUGE is often replaced with a stricter gauge such as [[DDR AC General Info|RISKY or LIFE4]] during a special event called an EXTRA STAGE which is unlocked after fulfilling one or more conditions. | ||
