Step by Step

Step by Step is a playable song in Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix. It is an arrangement of the bonus game theme from Super Mario World, which also plays in that game's Switch Palaces.

In Story Mode EX, it is stage 2-3, In the Whirlpool EX , replacing In the Whirlpool. Like its counterpart, the song's background features Mario or Luigi piloting the SS Brass through a whirlpool underwater with the help of the Boogie Booster. However, the surrounding water is darker, and the interior shots of the Brass show it shaking occasionally.

In Mush Mode, this song's only gimmick is Spinies, mines that explode when stepped on, damaging the Dance Meter significantly. While green Spinies move at a regular speed, red Spinies move quickly.
