'''xStep''' is the tenth level of [[Geometry Dash]] and [[Geometry Dash Lite]] and the first level with an Insane difficulty.


==Description==
==Description==
xStep introduces a variety of new level components including block designs and pulsators, with new decorative introductions becoming a frequent occurrence in later levels. It also introduces the cyan gravity pad and the cyan gravity ring briefly during later sequences, making movements more complex.
xStep introduces blue pads and blue rings/circles on the regular path. The icon assumes three different [[forms]] through the level— the cube, rocket, and gravity ball. It is similar to Cycles in difficulty and features multiple tight rocket scenes. xStep is also the level that uses the greatest number of blue pads out of any level in the game, present throughout almost the entire second ship scene. The level also introduces full checker bricks and another block (previously seen while getting the second coin in [[Jumper]]). The level also introduces wavy platforms along with the wavy thorns.
*A cube sequence takes place from 0% to 8%;
*A ball sequence from 9% to 18%;
*A ship sequence from 18% to 27%;
*A cube sequence from 27% to 36%;
*A ship sequence from 36% to 54%;
*A cube sequence from 54% to 72%;
*A ball sequence from 72% to 90%;
*And a ship sequence from 90% to 100%.


==Secret coins==
== Secret coins ==
*The first secret coin is located at 21% and collected as the ship. After passing beneath two pit obstacles, fly narrowly over a third thorn pit obstacle, falling slightly to collect the coin before immediately rising to clear an oncoming structure.
*The first secret coin is located in the first ship sequence. After the last thorn-ball before a stepped wall, carefully fly into the small space between the thorn-ball and the wall to collect the secret coin. Immediately push to fly up and clear the wall quickly, but take care not to crash above.
*The second secret coin is located at 53% and collected as the ship. After entering the passageway, as it rises slightly for a second time, fly down through a gap in the structure. Once inside, fly up, collect the coin and exit the structure by the end of the sequence.
*The second secret coin is located in the second ship sequence. In the last part of it, containing the spiked passage, slip your ship into a small hole. Keep on holding it up.Then go out the hole in the other end and go through a cube portal shortly afterward.
*The third secret coin is located at 59% and collected as the cube. After hitting the third gravity pad, jump once close to the small spike. Hit a gravity ring as the cube falls upwards to collect the coin before immediately hitting a jump ring upon return to the main route.
*The last coin is in the cube sequence after the second ship one. After flipping gravity, your cube will approach a gravity pad that is slightly elevated with some spikes before it. You have to miss the gravity pad and the spikes. If you jump from too far away, you will hit the gravity pad, which is the normal route. Once you have achieved a far enough jump, get ready to tap on a mid-air gravity ring, otherwise you will crash into a suspended platform with spikes on it. Once you have done that, you will reach the coin and fall into the regular course. Immediately jump again to clear off a jump ring.
