StepMania 5.3 Alpha 4.9.7 has been released!
This is our first build for 2021, and there are a ton of changes and major bug fixes (including a number of bug fixes dating back as far as the 3.9 era, if not earlier).
Check out the full changelog here for more information.
StepMania 5.3 Alpha 4.9.6 has been released!
This is our first official build with a native binary avaliable for the new ARM-based Macs (Apple M1). With this release, we are one of the first macOS-compatible games to have a version compiled natively for Apple M1, and one of the first with full controller and pad support as well. We demoed the build, as well as its controller support, in a recent Twitch broadcast.
This is our final build for 2020, and also marks the one-year anniversary of our first public release!
Check out the full changelog here for more information.
We have released a native, nightly build of StepMania 5.3 for the new ARM-based Macs using the Apple M1 system-on-chip. We've been surprised by how smooth the game runs on this architecture, so we hope you will give it a try and report and issues you encounter.
The build currently does not support controllers and pads, as we are currently awaiting dev notes on the topic from Apple.
You can download the build here; please note that this build is NOT a universal binary, and only supports M1-based Macs.
Thanks again for your support, and stay safe everyone!
EDIT (12/12/2020): We have controller support on ARM now, which will be included in the next public build.
5.3 Alpha 4.9.5 has been released! There are a ton of new things in this build, so check out the full changelog here for more information.
"Has anybody seen my tambourine?"
5.3 Alpha 4.9.1 has been released! This build focuses mainly on improvements and bug fixes (continuing on from Alpha 4.9), while there are also expansions to MIDI input support on Windows (including Lua APIs for analog input).
As mentioned earlier, we have sorted out the misunderstanding that required us to temporarily rebrand as Project OutFox, so we have returned to the StepMania name. It was all resolved amicably, and it had to be acted upon due to it being reported, so no problems there.
As always, the download links and a full changelog are on the release page. Happy Halloween!
