StepMania is a free and open source, cross-platform rhythm game. If you're not familiar with the concept of rhythm games, it involves triggering inputs (e.g. buttons, foot panels) in time to the music.
It supports common key-based rhythm game formats (including 4-panel and 5-panel dance games among others), as well as Switch controllers (joycons recommended for their individual buttons), keyboard and dance pad controllers (ex: Gamecube ones with adapter).
It is also customizable with user-made add-ons such as themes, and provides an integrated editor for creating your own simfiles.
Installation
How to install
- Download the latest release.
- Extract the archive in the /switch/ folder on your SD Card. Then, run the game from the hbmenu using hbl.
- Be sure to run it as an app, it won't work as an applet (you may get a black screen and/or crashes).
Song Installation
- StepMania requires a specific folder layout when installing songs: Songs/[group folder]/[song folder]/.
- Using one of the included songs as an example:
- Songs/StepMania 5/Springtime/Kommisar - Springtime.mp3
- Songs/StepMania 5/Springtime/spring.png
- Songs/StepMania 5/Springtime/springbn.png
- Songs/StepMania 5/Springtime/Springtime.ssc
- Each of these files serves as a part of the simfile. StepMania 5 supports various formats, including (but not limited to) SSC, SM, DWI, KSF and BMS. With the multi-file BMS and KSF formats, put all the files in the song's folder.
You can find for example a few packs of songs on Stepmania Online or Otaku's Dream Website here.
