hi

[top diff]

so uh 00:21:768 (5,6,7) - this rythm does not fit in with the other variants as they are usually release then a double, this one is a double then a 1/2
what i usually would do is something like https://puu.sh/Aq0tG/8d31ed6341.png
but you put importance on the snares so i think making them more in line with the other patterns would be better.

a similar thing happens here 01:12:768 (3,4,5) -
this rythm could start here 01:09:340 (3,4,5,6,7) - because the lead melody drops the intensity so you can switch the layers properly and it makes sense instead of seemingly random switching for variety
then you can switch back to the usual stream at 01:14:590 (3,4) - cause theres the lead melody note at 01:14:697 - so you can properly cover it

those two points apply to the second part ofc

idk why you dont follow the melody at 01:40:411 (3,4,5,6) - the other sound drops off completely, makes little sense to map 1/2

[hard]

00:58:518 (1,1) - this gap into a triple seems a bit harsh maybe you could map 01:00:983 - and push the spinner 1/2 backwards, seems more forgiving that way

02:00:126 (1,2) - ds should probably move this 02:00:554 (2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,1) - whole pattern a bit to the right cuz spinner resets the position anyway

idk why you dont follow the melody at 01:40:411 (3,4,5,6) - the other sound drops off completely, makes little sense to map 1/2 it does drop off, but gradually (hence lower DS). i want to highlight this "other sound" here because it's unique. i follow this sound through the spinner then revert back to following the usual melody here 01:42:983

M4M from your queue

EASY

00:54:983 (1) - what about Ctrl + j this? (and then respacing obviously) just because I feel like it might be better to make it point to the next note maybe.
00:58:411 (1) - maybe you can try moving this s bit up like (189 - 79) to make it line better with the previous note? (just for aestetic reason)

SUPER'S NORMAL

01:04:197 (5) - I would delete this note. It might be too much maybe. (also a little pouse there sounds good)
Can't find anything else here, very solid diff

COLLAB HARD

00:18:983 (1) - this spinner looks like ends on nothing actually. Also because the sound is at 00:20:161 - and not 00:20:268 - . maybe you can make it end at 00:20:697 - and delete 00:20:697 (1,2) - ?
00:28:626 (6,7,8) - why did you change the rhythm here? maybe it's more fitting to keep the rhythm like this 00:26:912 (5,6,7) - also because the beat is actually on 00:28:840 -
00:55:090 (1) - make this spinner end at 00:57:554 - ?
01:59:483 (4,5,1,2) - these notes might be too high (on my screen the touch the drain bar also) maybe you can lower them a little
02:02:697 (3) - this one too
02:03:661 (1) - shouldn't this end at 02:06:126 - ?

HARDCORE

00:18:876 - did you forgot the spinner here? or it's made on purpose? lol
01:06:447 (5) - not sure if this note is necessary (it's mapped on a very week sound and maybe it sounds better without it)

Anyway, good map!

00:58:411 (1) - maybe you can try moving this s bit up like (189 - 79) to make it line better with the previous note? (just for aestetic reason) primary aesthetic aspect of this diff is having all of the circles/heads/tails line up on the grid as much as possible (but not totally straight lines between multiple objects). these are lined up 00:56:697 (3) - 00:58:411 (1)

00:43:840 (2) - Next to everything is in that grid pattern, as in, the angles leading to the next circle are always a multiplier of 45° but this one?
01:52:411 (2) - ^
Actually, a lot of circles don't follow this. What is your structure? What is your thought behind the map? there are many that don't follow the strict grid pattern because it helps let the player know that the WHOLE map isn't the same

Collab hard:

00:00:983 (3,4) - this flows quite strangely. ctrl g both 00:02:054 (4) and 00:02:697 (5) will make it much better since the cursor movement can make a circulat 180 degrees to hit the slider heads. this would match the flow if 00:06:983 (1,2,3) quite well making the map more structured. I think it's fine especially since it's slow
00:05:482 (4,5) - similarly here, but ctrl-g 00:05:482 (4)
everythng above can be applied to the ending part as well
00:08:483 (5,6) - quite a big pause in between these 2, NC 00:08:911 (6) here maybe to emphasis that pause the first notes in the measure are the same spacing but if more people have a problem with it, then I'll fix
00:12:339 (6) and 00:12:339 (6) - ^^^
00:58:518 (1,1,2,3) - RC Guidelines for hard: Spinner recovery time should be at least 1 beat. This is to ensure adequate time to click a hit object following a spinner. fixed

maybe turn on epilepsy warning Xd

HardCORE

  1. 01:01:197 (1,2) - can be a longer reverse instead, bc at 25% you can hear 5 sounds (1/8) starting at 01:01:197 (1) -
  2. otherwise good design choices overall for a song as repetitive as this one

Collab Hard

  1. 01:32:697 (1) - not a big fan of this double reverse, quite confusing as there hasnt been any other double reverse mapped on this sound + the transition to the stream might be a bit less awkward with a more conventional rhythm choice instead of the double reverse.
  2. 01:33:983 (6) - maybe NC here instead to signify the downbeat is present on this reverse.
  3. 01:37:840 (5) - NC
  4. 01:39:554 (4) - possibly NC this as well
  5. 02:00:554 (2) - 02:06:983 (2) - inconsistent DS?

Super's Normal

  1. 01:03:554 (4,5,6) - what is this rhythm focusing on atm? I currently cant really see what youre mapping this to. Lots of significant sounds unclickable so I would suggest changing the rhythm so the significant sounds on the white ticks are clickable.

wtf is this ding sound, can you use it more sparingly
like only on downbeats / "emphasized" things
in the intro

it can get more dense as more layers are added but having on literally every object in intro makes me wanna die
[hardcore]

00:21:554 - 00:25:304 (4,5) - 00:28:733 (4,5) - 00:42:447 (4,5) - etc - https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/12024888 fuck the snare
just dont make it clickable somehow the melody syncopation is more important

00:58:411 - put circle b4 spinner for active rhythm (and others)

01:30:340 (6,7) - this rhythm is bad for same reason as other time, fuck snares follow melody

01:33:983 (9,1) - rly big 1/4 jump, would smallen it

01:38:479 - think https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/12024912 comboing works better with the phrasing

01:40:733 - 1/4 comes in but gets ignored? would put repeat

01:48:126 (1,2) - rhythm is bad for melody

[hard]
raise ar - 7 or 7.5

[normal]
raise ar - 5.5 or 6

00:20:697 - this section needs to use more circles, the entire thing is repeat sliders which sucks both because the player only plays sliders and because the map is stuck in the middle cuz everything points back to the middle. use less repeats and more circles to avoid this.

01:01:840 - the kiai also has only sliders which is bad, you need to integrate circles into it. what i suggest is making the basic rhythm 1/1 circles, then use 1/2 sliders to follow the melody. that way you can have more than 5 circles in the entire kiai.

01:29:268 - same as previous time. the rhythm is also way denser than intense parts since you mapped all the filler stuff for some reason, it needs to be nerfed heavily to creat e contrast.

[easy]
00:48:126 (1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3) - the density drops a ton here cuz u only use sliders for some reason, add circles cuz this part is more intense......................................

01:01:840 (1,2,3,4) - can u change this rhythm so the active clicks are on the melody and not the filler

01:17:697 (3) - circles

01:41:268 (3,1,2) - 3 leads into 1 make it more linear

01:56:697 (1,2,3,1) - same as before

01:29:268 - same as previous time. the rhythm is also way denser than intense parts since you mapped all the filler stuff for some reason, it needs to be nerfed heavily to create contrast. ye. also im pretty sure i mentioned this before, but these chains 01:31:197 (4) and 01:39:554 (7) are too hard for a Normal, there should be breaks in them.

HELLO THERE YAHURI

Skin
- Please for the love of banana make the cursor smaller, it's so large
- since cursortrail.png is a 1x1 invisible image, cursormiddle.png isn't doing anything. Remove?
- reverse arrow could be cuter, like a similar style as the numbers :3c
- why do your undertalebg.jpg sprites have move commands when they don't move?
- scorebar-bg is gameplay relevant and can not be totally invisible. even a line along the bottom length of scorebar colour to serve as a point of reference of how much health is lost could be good.

Hitsound
the whistle hitsound is used so frequently it gets a bit annoying and loses any impact it could have, honestly. Especially as it's so loud and distinct from the song. The intro was ok since it was less frequent, but hitsounding in other parts of the song are questionable. I think you could reduce the frequency to more key notes so that there's more distinction and emphasis using this hitsound rather than tingtingting everywhere


Hard
- 00:46:518 - i know there IS a sound here, but it's really non-obvious and the result is that 00:46:411 (1,2) - feels incredibly weird and like 2 is starting to nothing. would just make them one slider like 00:47:268 (3) - .
> 01:54:983 (1,2) - ^

HardCORE
- 01:04:197 (3,4,5,6,7) - these and other 5plets end up really awkward to play because you have 3,4,6,7 to the piano doubles, but 5 to the drumbeat, meaning you're clicking to two very different things in one 1/4 pattern- it's too rapid to switch, and feels unfitting to both. I suggest you just remove the middle notes from these and go for doubles. or make 01:04:304 (4,5) - into a slider.
- 01:11:161 (3,4,5,6) - these kinds of rhythms have the same issue.
