AZURE'S STARS

01:21:14 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - This is very confusing during play, but it do seems pretty Removed a hit circle and neatened a bit
01:24:78 (4) - This is confusing too, but I can just put my mouse at the centre, lol, so, no big deal Cleaned a little
01:30:01 (3) - This jump is intended ? XD Naturally ;P
02:16:60 (1) - Poor lone combo, lol Fixed
02:35:69 (4,5,6,7,8,9) - Look nice, but difficult to play for the 1st time I sorta want the map a little chaotic
02:48:423- ahh, I like this part, even though it's kinda "surprising" Maybe I could put a storyboard in there?
02:52:439 - 03:13:196 - Uhmm.... I know this part is very hard to map, but, (sorry to be frank), I don't get how your hitsounds work here. It sounds very confusing to me. XD XD XD Try mapping like how you map 01:44:786 - 01:51:604. That part is excellent. :3 I tried to map the hitsounds as best I could to the computerized sounds. I changed a few things here and there so if it's till a problem let me know
03:19:787 - Reinsert break time
03:53:42 (1) - The slider end design is intentional ? Sorta, but changed for the sake of consistency
04:04:90 (1) - Let slider starts earlier by 1 tickI see you fix that already. :3

Remod after I realize I forgot to update the map
00:22:62 (4) - The clap sounds weird here. :3 Fixed
00:27:28 (1) - I think this spinner sounds better with Normal beat sound instead of a soft clap. Changed
02:22:28 (1) - Don't you think the new combo starts here is weird ? XD New combo at the "so" syllable
03:39:33 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - I like this part.

It's a nice map Aaron, I like those cute stars, don't be depressed. I will throw some of my 2 cents for ya.
1. There are some parts of the map where they are nicely and superbly done. However, there are also some part of the map where the design is messy and confusing. It's a bit inconsistent.
2. Some placements of the beats seems random to me. XD I made that mistake when i was doing my first map and 2nd map, until some BAT slapped me awake and showed me examples on what are insensible map, and what map are "every-note-placement-has-its-meaning". Thus, I completely redo my 2nd beatmap (Yea, the one that you helped me modded it. Before that, my 1st version of the map was terrrible, and I was more satisfied with my re-do and that same BAT said yea, it's better. =D )
3. Find me again to mod your map once you fix this part ok ? 02:52:439 - 03:13:196 I think the biggest problem was here. :3 You know where to find me. :3 I've changed This a bit, removed some notes to make it easier, etc.

Ok, I would like to involve myself as the 3rd collaboration person, if you don't mind, and I will make a semi Normal/Nrad difficulty as well, since all other difficulties are so Insane-ious ! However, I might not be able to finish working on it anytime soon. Please give me several days to finish working on it, ok ?

Is that ok ? :3 =D

P.S. : BTW, the fix I posted for Azure looks horrible when I hear it now (after waking from sleep...) XD

Okay.... better to add in the suggestions now to save time.

[Azure's S.t.a.r.S]

01:49:55 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - The stack here would be questionable since the beats are not in the same timing altogether in one place. Moved the 4 so that the beats are spaced appropriately
02:38:76 (1,2) - Slightly uneven under the slider end. Changed, I think
02:40:69 (2,4) - Slightly uneven link Changed
02:52:51 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1,2,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,
1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1,2,3,4,5,6) - Basicly the whole section, but for this one the beats don't follow up too well with the next one. I know you're trying to map the beats carefully on this part but there are certain beats you don't need to strictly follow. The main concern for this part is to control the flow of the beats around this part. If it can get smoothed out a bit better, then it should be less trouble. I completely reworked this section
03:41:15 (5,6,7,8,1,2) - Between here, you have to be really careful with as there is a slight off flow beat in 1/8's which throws the purpose of the stream off. not sure what you mean; I'll try and fix this later
There are some other things, but from a similar error like more notes slightly uneven under slider ends and such. But the map is not as bad as before though. Keep up the good effort :-3


These are just suggestions btw.

[Rustastic Stars]

00:22:05 (1) - The placement of this spinner feels kinda odd. I don't think making the spinner shorter would help either as it would be too short. Same for those like this too.... I agree that it can't be shorter and because of that I made it that long in the first place. But I feel it sounds just fine the way it is, will take note if someone else mentions it though
00:42:96 (1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,5) - This pattern was really hard to read and to keep up with. I couldn't tell how and where to hit the notes. Fixed, I was iffy about it too.
01:29:55 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) - Make sure the notes are set up right for the stream around here. if its too far apart, it would make it stressful to aim at. Same for those like this as well. For this combo, I just took out the 1/4s, but later ones I made the spacing in half.

The notes are kinda all over the place in a unstable feeling. I know its still under work though but just wanted to point these out. (' ._.) But still, good job for putting in the effort.

IMO if the notes are spaced correctly then it works out well. I noticed that your style is much different then mine and I can understand that. If you want though I will re-space everything.

Anyway, here's the update.

Sweet Stars
00:40:01 (6) - May be naziing but . . . . this isn't spaced
00:50:92 (6) - ^
01:25:46 (4) - ^ (All checked and fixed. Curse you again distance snap...)

Tasty Stars
01:16:37 (5,6) - check these out, make sure they are spaced correct, I might be wrong, just check em, make sure
01:26:60 (3,4,5,1) - ^ (These two are okay. I double checked them.)
02:22:96 (3,4,5,6) - idk, something wrong with these kinds of notes, check if u know what I'm sayin (Ah, I see. The change of pace with the notes causing some confusion with the fact that it is part of the combo. I'll make sure this is fixed.)

S.t.a.r.S
well other then the Insaneness, this one is pretty well done imo, just the score too high thingy, I wasn't aware what this map was aiming for, most likely Approved by the looks of it, anyways (I know the score is quite high and this map would most likely be better going for approved since its way past the recommended ranking score limit.)


*Star

P.S. I'd Hit that (Lolz)

S.t.a.r.S:
01:53:64 (2,3) - This'll prob confuse players.. map it in order, swap 2 and 3 since 5,6,7 are lined up fine (Acually, I decide to remove (3) since it was a "forced" note that ruins the flow.)
02:35:01 (2,3,4,5) - Reserve so 2 is ontop of 1 and goes 2,3,4 (for the left) and 5 in the middle (Hmm.... that could work.)

Hi whymeman ! Don't be down ! Here's a kudosu star for ya to encourage you. =D It's a very nice song and map, and yea, I really like it. *You're my star~~*

General : There's some stuff on video. Yea, some stuff. Maybe you should add a notice warning that there are some stuff there.

TASTY STARS
00:44:33 (10) - A clap amongst the sea of no claps sound really weird to me. If you wanna make that clap-at-the-end-of-every-lyric pattern, claps should be on 00:47:96 (11). Also consider add notes with clap at 00:40:694, 00:51:603. If you want to be consistent, you can also add notes with normal hitsound at 2 tick earlier to these 2 places too. =D

Extra point : I realize you do that on here, 01:55:01 (11,12) , so I think you should fix above for consistency.

00:48:194, 00:48:648 - This is just purely suggestion, because this part that doesn't have notes with the lyric is kinda weird and contradictory with earlier parts. (I usually use both the lyrics and the flow of the beat when I map a song. This part goes with the beat and partly with the lyrics.)
00:49:78 (5) - This clap is very random. XD
01:55:23 (12) - Clap ?
02:02:51 (10) - ^
02:05:921 - 2 notes here ? (If a cram a note here, it would cause confusion with the slowdown section...)


STARS
03:42:975 - Well done.

Not going to touch SWEET STARS since I believed I modded that already last time. XD

SPOILER

Well, my opinion on how to make the song not exceeding the score limit. (Stars)
00:37:285 - Start the map here. (Can't.... that would kill the point of the map itself.)
03:27:681 - Remove this part ? But then the break would be too long. D: (Yeah...)
I kinda understand your dilemma and feelings. *gives cookies*
*sigh* I hope these part won't needed to be cut off though, but... *sigh*

You also have support from this as well :

AZURE STARS
00:52:05 (2,3) - I suggest changing these 2 sliders' type to linear type for a better cosmetic effect. XD (Notice that just change TYPE, not the slider itself) Done
00:52:05 (2,3) - Is out of grid a problem ? what do you mean?
02:33:87 (8) - Change to linear slider type ? Done
03:49:33 (1) - I think this spinner breaks the feelings of stream, but again, there's this score limit thingy D:
04:04:78 (1) - ^ Either way, I changed this slightly.
04:08:194 - Add a note ? done :3
And as always, I suki those cute star sliders. <3 :3

I love the skin on this, all great maps, here are my suggestions, feel free to ignore them:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sweet Stars:

00:28:87 – Adding a beat here makes it easier to follow the beat I think.
01:07:73 (1,2,3,4,5,6) – This beat is a little hard to follow, there’s nothing wrong with it, but I think the way you mapped it at 01:22:28 (1,2,3,4,5) – was easier to hit.
01:15:01 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^
01:25:92 (1,2,3,4,5) - ^
02:22:28 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^
02:29:55 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^
02:41:60 (5) – Add a beat?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tasty Stars:

01:07:73 (1,2,3,4,5,6) – Same as easy.
01:15:01 (1,2,3,4,5,6) – ^
03:51:37 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^
03:58:64 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^

Even though the same type of beat appears in the song at these places it was hardest to follow, again there’s nothing wrong with just difficult to hit at these times.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

S.t.a.r.S:

I didn’t pass this though, but I watched osu and it seems fine, I recommend:
00:38:42 (4) – Add a clap on the third beat.
00:41:37 (3) – Add a clap on the second beat.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's all, great map, star.

00:57:28 (10,11) - when this came up I was like "wait, what??" It's pretty easy to mistake 10 for a slider... Kinda, I'll move the slider slightly to make it more readable
01:20:01 (5,6,1) - Doesn't flow well from the previous combo It's there to force players to jump back and do it but anyways. Made a little easier
01:21:14 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - REALLLLLLY MEAN AND NASTY you can't even see 6 coming Brilliant, huh?
01:24:78 (4) - This slider's endpoint backtracks a tiny bit, fix? I think fixed?
01:29:55 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - The increasing distances don't really fit imo Changed
01:54:78 (1) - I would move this a bit closer to 6
02:02:05 (1) - ^ Done and Done
02:28:42 (6) - Same star thing Fixed
02:35:69 (4,5,6,7,8,9) - RAGE AGAIN Brilliant... Just Brilliant
02:54:67 (8,9,10) - Move these ahead 1/4 Done
02:56:26 (4,5,6) - ^, then add a hitcircle where 4 started before See that number in the Total objects section? I wanna keep it
erg, the whole part until the break here could really use some work, it sounds/plays pretty awkward. Try to stick to an intuitive rhythm/beat.
03:42:96 (1) - This star isn't as pretty and symmetrical as the other ones ;_; Changed

Hmm, while there's nothing too technically wrong with the beatmap, I can't help but getting the feeling that the hardest difficulty is a bit overmapped. And I guess the mapping style is a bit too linear for my taste I'll star this for now and see what other mods have to say about this map.
