Stepmania is a simulation of the popular music based games called Dance Dance Revolution. In Mid-2011 sm-ssc merged into official branch of StepMania and thus, the development of version 4 beta was discontinued in favor of an official Version 5. sm-ssc added more features and made many bug fixes. A separate development team called the Spinal Shark Collective forked Stepmania 4 Alpha, calling it sm-ssc. Beginning with the announcement of this beta, StepMania's CVS/SVN fork was unofficially branded by the StepMania community as version 5.0. StepMania creator Chris Danford later forked the CVS build and called it StepMania 4 beta. The CVS version is based on a 2006 build of StepMania, better known as 3.95.

Development of StepMania branched out in Version 4.0, with two versions being developed concurrently. During the first three major versions, the Interface was based heavily on DDR's.
