It's amazing to see so many birds migrating together. Of course,
to avoid stepping on each others' toes, they'll need good rhythm...

— Flock Step Description (Rhythm Heaven Fever US version)

The migration of so many birds is a wonderful
event. Just don't step on any other bird's toes.

— Flock Step Description (Rhythm Heaven Megamix)

Template:Game-NavTemplate:Game-NavTemplate:Minigame infoboxFlock Step (鳥の大群?, Tori no Taigun) is the 24th minigame in Rhythm Heaven Fever and the 25th minigame in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. It features a large flock of migrating Huebirds of Happiness stepping in rhythm.

Gameplay

The player controls a pink Huebird located in the center of the screen. It has to march in step along with the other Huebirds, marching is done by pressing A button. When one of the birds squawks, this is a cue for all the Huebirds to squat and jump in time with each other. To squat, hold A and B button, and to

jump, release both buttons at the same time.

Timing Notes

  • Hit: The Huebird will step and jump in time with the others.
  • Barely: The Huebird will go offbeat while steping or jumping depending on if the player was too early or late. A barely counts as a hit!
  • Miss: The Huebird bumps into the bird in front of or behind him, looking surprised while the other bird looks annoyed. This may switch the footing pattern if the player continues without anymore breaks.

Trivia

  • The name 'Flock Step' is a possible reference to Rhythm Heaven's Lockstep.
    • Further examined, both games objective's are to step in rhythm in a group.
  • The Huebirds later appear in the Night Walk credits game, flying by in a huge flock partway through it.
  • In Rhythm Heaven Fever, both this minigame and Tap Trial have the same Superb message "It feels good to belong", except that Flock Step's Superb message has a full stop at the end while Tap Trial's has an exclamation point.
  • According to debug notes found in the files of Rhythm Heaven Megamix, this game, Board Meeting, Fork Lifter, and Packing Pests would have its story mode variant added in that game but got cut for unknown reasons.
