Thank you!

Diff wip for a while.

Nice map

timing fine, Good Job~
IMO the countdown don't fit the song very good. remove it.

RoxK.:
no modding coz it haven't finish

Normal:
small spacing problem could be ignored,but i think the spacing below are confused(although i could pass them at the first time XD)
00:59:63 (3,4) -; 02:21:09 (4,1) -; 02:07:71 (1,2,3,4) -

Taiko:
actually i don't know how to mod a taiko map ;_;

Hard:
HP drain rate seems a bit too fast,but it's fine when i play it third time. leave it or change it, as your wish.
seems i just could do spacing modding jobs
01:21:33 (5,6) - ; 02:43:48 (1,2,3) -

actually it is a good map that i could only do seldom on it(maybe if i do nazi jod i could post a lot XD).

stard~

[General]
... WHERE IS the beat's volume? It's too low... try to raise it a bit...

RoxK. Puzzle Sliders
00:21:09 (3) - finish and whistle this slider's end
00:23:17 (1) - finish this slider's start
00:41:63 (1,2,3) - start (or end, your choise) the sliders with whistles, finish the beat
00:58:02 (spinner) - set kiai time in the end of this slider
01:00:56 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62) - looks like a work in progress... try to set an intelligent beat spacing for these beats... plus, set claps on 6th, 14th, 22nd, 30th, 31st, 39th, 46th, 47th, and 55th (clap and finish on 61st and 62nd). Remember to set new combos! (maybe every after a clap beat...)

Normal
00:37:02 (2,3) - soft finish here
01:00:09 (4) - kiai time from here to the break. If you do it, set new combo ^^
01:21:56 (4) - clap the whole slider
02:28:71 (5) - kiai time from here until the end

Hard
01:00:09 (5) - like Normal mode...
02:17:63 (5) - new combo here
02:28:71 (5) - kiai time from here until the end. If you do it, set new combo (pretty symmetrical, isn't it? ^^)

Taiko
... it's perfect-don! :3 (Remiember to set kiai time as seen on the other modes... u.u)

A funny and catchy song with good rhythm and some pesky jumps... Star 4 you

Since this is a WIP, I won't fully mod it yet, but i'll give you this at least.

Osz. File Check (Done)


When the map is done, forum PM me again. I normally don't star without really modding the map first, sorry.

o(^v')b

hmm.. I have nothing to do. Because well done.

By the way

[Normal]
HP Drain Rate and Overall Difficulty is very low.
It seems to easier but this map is actually a little bit hard. It has hard spacing.
I suggest these values.
HP DR : 2 → 4
OD : 3 → 5

Normal:

Hard:

Nice map so far. Star.
If you want me to mod the easy difff, call me back when it is finished.

Here! Made my diff
Soryy for the long time that I took to make it and I hope that you like the storyboarded hit sounds.
ps.: I'm sending too a "Normal-hitclap.wav" that is the normal one but my diff will not work if you don't add this one.
Download: Diff and Hit Sound.rar

yey! /o/

yay! uploaded n___n thanks a lot roxkyuubi<333333

okie. i decided not to put kiai in (maybe i'll change my mind later) because the song is short and i wouldnt want kiai going on for half the song.

i didn't make the difficulty much higher for [normal] because i want to keep the rating at 4 stars but i did raise it a little.

thanks so much for modding<3 and thanks siriru for starrrr~!

puzzle sliders:
00:37:48 (1) - why not make this symmetric?
00:50:63 (2) - sounds too short to me...extend to 00:51:33?

normal:
00:21:09 (6) - awesome (had to say it)
no problems here

hard:
01:07:83 (2) - 1 tick down?
02:46:59 (2,3) - doesnt look nice to me

taiko:
cant mod this :/

nicely done map

O god, I never modded a Taiko. If I say something wrong, please, don't kill me X__X

//Taiko//

1. 00:16:022(x) - add a note here?
2. 00:16:253(x) - and here? (w/ whistle)
3. 00:16:484(x) - n here?
4. 00:21:907(4) - maybe clap here and not on the (5)?
5. 01:28:484(3-11) - hum... too manny Claps, I think, Maybe only using on the (5,6,8,9) >__<

Sounds really cool for me.

updated(: thank youuuu.

~Star.

+5ms to the offset or so, but it's not a big deal.

Combo numbers were the only things I could find to fix. Instead of making a long list, I'm posting some .osus with the numbers fixed:

Ok I'm quite tired at the moment so I just gave this a quick play and quick check, I'll just note a couple things:

[Taiko]

I'm not qualified to mod Taiko :p

[Slider]

Ok, but in general spacing seems quite large for an easy difficulty. I've been shot for this by a couple BATs now so I thought I'd just mention it.

01:26:40 (1,2,3) I'd suggest moving this up to space out from the following 1,2 more as that actually tripped me up lol. But then you might want to make everything else closer anyway as it is an easy, I assume.

[Normal]

01:00:09 (4,5,6) - Oh tricky tricky, but I don't really have anything to suggest here.

Pretty nice.

[Hard]

01:37:36 - Redo the break, it shortens a little bit.

I guess that's all! Good job.

Sorry I couldn't be more useful >< ☆

Remember, some of the errors posted are suggestions, not directions. Edit to what you see fit. (Assuming that everything else looks okay enough, i'll use a lighter modding style this time.)

Non-Detailed Modding v.1.0 Go~


[RoxK. Puzzle Sliders] (Done)


[Normal] (Done)


[Taiko] (Exempt from modding)


[Hard] (Done)


Overall: The map seems nice so far. Mostly minor stuff to take care of but the map should be much better after you check into this post. Also, the Download size is still over 10 MB, maybe you can ask someone to help you compress/cut the .mp3 so that it would be less of a burden later on when ranking time comes. Well, as I promised, i'll drop my star in.

So now it's time to actually mod this map:

Puzzle Sliders:

1. lol I make these sliders all the time without even thinking about it
2. 01:07:48 (1,2) - With the slow approach rate, it's hard to tell these aren't 1/1s. Please unstack or turn into 1/1s.

Normal:

1. 01:21:09 (3,4) - Ugly overlap

Taiko:

1. If taiko maps can even have flaws, I can't find them. =/

Hard:

1. 01:28:48 (3) - Lengthen by a 1/4.

A bit boring by the end but it looks good.

Offset: 1.022

I think.

[RoxK.]

01:28:48 (1) - Finish[?]

All diffs looks fine, staar.

The BG is cute :3
Puzzle Sliders - I LOVE THE PATTERN SLIDERS!
00:24:33 (1) - Don't make this a new combo.
00:28:48 (3) - Add a whistle to the star of the slider.

Normal - if you want me to, I can SB in some nice arrows for the sliders.
00:21:09 (6) - SB a arrow pointing clockwise with the slider?
00:43:25 (7) - Same as ^.

Taiko
Fine to me but I'm not good at modding Taiko.

Hard - Again I can do some SBing for free :3
00:21:33 (1) - move this back by 1/4 and extend by 1/4 to back to where it originally ended.
00:43:25 (7) - Same slider thing as Normal.

starred' for awesomeness.
I hope this gets ranked soon. Go start asking BATs to mod.

updated

[RoxK. Puzzle Sliders]
all fine

[Normal]
01:10:94 (7) - move 1 grid to the down(level 3)~nazi~
02:03:09 (2) - move 1 grid to the up(levle 3)~nazi~

[Hard]
all fine

nice mappset.
star*

btw,i like the song

Hu!? Now that I saw that you took off the storyboarded hitsounds o.O
Why? .__.

o_O i didn't do anything to your difficulty. O_O dunno where it went >______________________<
i guess i'll reload the diff that you posted on here before?

Ow, now I saw why. There are no "normal-hitclap.wav" on the song foulder. Please, pick the one that is on the Osu-templateskin. And u can chnage my diff name to just Puzzle Sliders ^^ Later I'll give you a logo pick or something like that so you can storyboard my name on the diff =] (RoxK. Puzzle Sliders is ugly and huge X__X)

All fine!

-Normal
02:38:868 Clap at the start
02:41:638 Whistle or clap at the start
02:52:022 Clap at the start; remove the clap at the end

Taiko
...°°

Hard
00:21:330 Remove the finish and add a clap?
00:30:791 Remove new combo?
00:58:022 Whistle at the start
01:27:561 Clap
01:28:484 Whistle at the start?

That's all for me. Starred!

thanks Armin! changed most of the things you mentioned.

Nice
Marisa =3
Star~

Really fun map, great job, <3 jumps.

No problems found, so have a star.

Offset's still a tad early...+4ms imo

Anyhow, your mp3's got a couple problems. One, 320kbps is a little too "fine" for osu!; you'd cut the filesize back a fair bit without suffering quality to knock it down to 256kbps

also, you have almost 2 minutes of excess, unused mp3. By shaving the last 90 seconds off the mp3 you'd be dropping the filesize by a good 4MB or so. After modifying the mp3, you may need to readjust the offset.

woooooosh

okay finally changed the mp3 file >__< i think i need help with finding offset again (or maybe i don't need to change it? not sure o-o)

Yes wrote:

Back again for your checkup?
Yup, you don't need to change your offset.

thank you n____________n

Puzzle Sliderz
00:26:40 (7) - clap here?
00:50:63 (2,1) - spacing

Normal
00:21:09 (6) - this is a epic slider, but looks a little confusing
00:21:09 (6) - btw, clap at end?
00:43:25 (7) - what i said @0:21
00:46:94 (3) - [distance snap off] move 3 small squares up and then 1 to right and then fix spacing

Taiko
I don't know how to mod this, sorry @_@

Hard
Awesome.

thanks! fixed

My logo for my diff

oh okie. um >___< where should i put it ._."

[Puzzle Sliderz]

1. 00:43:25 (4) - this slider isn't curved perfect, like the rest is

[Normal]

1. 01:19:48 (2) - Hidden under slider. Little not important detail.

[Taiko]
My playing abilities sucks, but notes are chosen well and it plays great

[Hard]
Perfect. It Plays very naturally.

Good work man. Beatmap is awesome Starred of course.

I saw this had a taiko difficulty so I had to check it out [I actually play taiko]. Anyway, that's where all my suggestions are directed, the other difficulties all seem nice enough, so taiko mod go:

Taiko:

Name this "Taiko Oni" please so Taiko players know what type of difficulty in taiko this is, they would get a shock if they thought it was easy.

00:23:40 (2,3,4) – Remove these for a small break [It still follows the vocals].
00:31:48 (5) – Remove?
00:36:33 (9) – Make this a beat instead of a clap?
00:36:67 Add a beat [Red]
00:37:71 (7,8) – Red beats?
00:40:94 - Add a clap [blue].
00:58:83 – Add a clap.
01:21:90 - Add a clap.
01:22:02 - Clap
01:51:215 - Clap?
01:51:445 – Clap?
01:52:48 (4) – Make a beat instead of a clap?
02:34:94 (4,5,6) – Try clap, clap, beat instead of repeating the same pattern in 02:34:48 (1,2,3).
02:35:868 – Finish beat here? [Big Red]
02:49:71 (4,5,6,7,8,9) – If you are going to use this pattern I recommend adding:
02:50:522 – Add a beat [Clap/Blue]
02:50:638 – Add a beat [Beat/Red]

Overall - If you take any of my suggestions then please rename this “Taiko Oni”. Other than that it plays well and I liked it, so here is your star!

Storyboard on the beggining >.>

UPDATED~

Added a storyboard logo for Easy and made a bunch of changes on Taiko (thanks Shulin!!)

Nice!I Liked the map and the song good job!

Skin:
Force default skin OR add a custom slider-ball.

Hard:
00:43:25 (7) - Not sure if want.Though, if you don't wanna change that slider, don't.

Normal:
00:21:09 (6) - Not sure if want.Though, if you don't wanna change that slider, don't.
00:43:25 (7) - ^

Puzzle Sliders:
Maybe make it more obvious that this diff can be seen as Easy

Oni:
yep.

So the only thing you HAVE to do is the skin thing

<3

thank you for stars!

i didn't change the sliders, but i did force default skin n-n

Puzzle Sliderz:
00:24:561: Add a hitcircle here on top of 2 or between 2 and 3.
There aren't any hitsounds from 00:45:330 to the spinner at 58 seconds. You should add some.

Normal:
01:28:022 (Spinner): It would be a lot simpler to just lengthen the spinner to end at the same place the hitcircle does and just get rid of that.
02:56:638 (Spinner): Same here.

Hard:
Slider speed seems really low for a Hard difficulty. Maybe you should speed that up, lower the distance spacing, and redo everything spacing-wise.
01:25:022 (1,2,3): The jumps here seem a bit extreme, even for Hard.
01:37:022 (1): Why is this a new combo?
01:44:868 (1): Same here.
02:31:484 (1,2,3): Another series of jumps that are a bit much.
02:56:638 (Spinner): Same as Normal.

oh yay! thanks metroid! i will upload it when i get back home! and thanks behonkiss i'll update it soon, too!

edit - updated!! thanks thanks thanks!

[Metroid Mix]
00:58:94 (1) - I recommend not placing it too close to the edge of the field after the spinner
02:27:56 (1) - ^

Add "Metroid" to the tags.

[Puzzle Sliders]
The SB clapping and the low overall difficulty makes this hard to play.
Unless you were going for that...if not then change it.

[Normal]
Raise the overall difficulty or lower circle size.
It feels a bit cluttered.

Just a few thing that I wanna say to Yes about my diff

[Puzzle Sliderz]

00:43:25 (4,5,6,7) - This looks really odd with the slider touching the notes here compared to the others. Hum.. please, Yes, could you please make the diameter of this slider bigger and change the (5,6,7) place?
01:12:09 (2,3,4) - Was this jump intentional? ops~ Please, fix it, Yes

Sorry for saying you to do this. Cuz I gotta sleep now and I wanted to say this to not forget.
If I have time tomorow, I do it ^^

Normal~
103,587ms - Lower the hit sound volume here to the rest of the Normal timing sections.

Metroid~
01:26:17 (1) - Move slightly closer to 2.
02:03:33 (7) - Move slightly closer to 6.

Update!

[Timing]

1. Offset feels a bit early. What I got for the offset is 1,037.

[Normal]

01:28:02 (1,1) - IMO it'd be better if you just extended the spinner to where the beat is.
02:56:63 (1,1) - ^

[Metroid Mix]

1. Low stack leniency? afaik this is unrankable.

[Taiko Oni]

02:28:83 - Why the new section...?

~ ~ ~

Everything else is good.

thanks!! updated ~~

Please just push the stack leniency to 0.2 via .osu edit or just moving the stack leniency to the right where ever and to the left as far as possible, this should put it to 0.2 which is rankable..

It would be preferable to add metroid and roxkyuubiforever to tags, don't you think so? D:
I don't mod I just tested, and this test just let me think this needs no mod really xP

~star

thank you Alice and Blackiris.
Updated tags (:

[Normal]

02:28:48 (4,5) - Too close together.
02:40:48 (3,4) - Double check the spacing here. It looks tight in the spacing.

[Metroid Mix]

00:43:02 (9,10) - Too close together (Maybe a slight push upwards with (10) can even out the spacing).
01:18:79 (8,9) - Too close together.
01:23:63 (3,4,5) - ^ (Could move down (4) a bit to even out the spacing.)
01:26:17 (1,2) - Too far apart.
02:24:79 (4,5) - Too close together (A small push to the right can fix this).

[Hard]

00:23:63 (1,2) - Push (2) up slightly (with grid snap on).
00:24:56 (2,3,4) - (3) and (4) has a larger spacing gap than (2) and (3).
01:08:63 (1,2,3,4,5) - Odd spacing fluctuation here. The spacing between (1) and (4) is smaller than (4) and (5).
01:36:33 (7,8,9,10,1) - Another odd spacing fluctuation here. Look at (10) and (1) then look at the stack at (7) and (10). (10) and (1) has a larger spacing gap.
01:45:79 (2,3,4) - Spacing fluctuation here too. (3) and (4) has a larger spacing gap than (2) and (3).
01:46:94 (5,6,7) - ^ ( (6) and (7) has a larger spacing gap than (5) and (6).)
02:07:94 (2,3,4) - (3) and (4) has a larger spacing gap than (2) and (3) here as well.
02:11:40 (5,6,7,1) - Spacing fluctuation here too. (5,6) and (7,1) has a larger spacing gap than (6) and (7).
02:13:48 (8,9,1) - Spacing fluctuation here too. (9) and (1) has a larger spacing gap than (8) and (9).


One more note, that black combocolor might be too dark... And for the spacing, there are still some left over issues from before. Did you try out holding alt and shift to adjust the distane snap at smaller levels? It could help with preventing the "hiccups" in the spacing which should also be double checked in the difficulties again (besides the taiko difficulty). Once that is fixed and that you've added in anything that is needed, let me know and i'll check into bubbling.

Edit: Issues addressed and fixed. Bubbled.

What? I see no issue, unless you're talking about 3 pixels of space difference which is not noticable.
01:18:79 (8,9) - Too close together. Fixed
01:23:63 (3,4,5) - ^ (Could move down (4) a bit to even out the spacing.) huh? I don't see anything wrong
01:26:17 (1,2) - Too far apart. no it's fine.
02:24:79 (4,5) - Too close together (A small push to the right can fix this). that's barely noticable at all, and it would kill how nice the pattern is :c

thank youuuu whymeman!

Use kiai on all difficulties, not just those silly bursts.

Puzzle Sliderz:

Normal:

00:21:009 (6) - Misleading and badly constructed.
00:43:025 (7) - ^

Metroid:

00:28:048 (7) - KILL IT

Hard:

00:43:025 (7) - Misleading and badly constructed.

Okay. I fixed the kiai time on Normal, Hard and Taiko. I left the star sliders alone though because I think they're fine as is. I'll also speak for Metroid for now and say that his slider is fine, as well.

The stars sliders aren't that bad, Metroid's slider is just hideous. Get him to look at it himself.

All done!

Why are the storyboarded hitsounds on all difficulties now?

They are? >< I don't know what happened. For some reason it's not on other difficulties on my computer but I reuploaded so hopefully that'll fix itt.

Oops, +20 on that offset.

Okie dokie. Fixed!
