Late M4M, but it's still okay for the party! o/
[Overview]
- 00:08:033 - Consider moving your offset here, since this is the first downbeat (strong beat) of the song. Nothing special, but it helps to keep count of downbeats further (and notes will still be syncronized with song, so it's okay if you change).
- Maybe just personal preference, but I think you should look for a more... interesting (first word that came into my mind) background. Actual one is pretty boring IMO (and players don't always use video, yet they want to see a nice and maybe lewd but not NSFW (lol) background).
- You barely use the clap hitsounds. D: You should consider placing claps every second and fourth beat (counting big white ticks as first) to create more variety on the beatmap (whistles and finishes aren't just enough D:)
[Easy]
- 00:31:002 (1) - Personal preference: Maybe placing this where next slider begins will enhance flow a little bit, making playablilty easier for newbies. If you do, remember to move the next slider to avoid stackings on Easy.
- 00:33:814 (5) - Preference (again): I know you're mapping symmetrically here, but I think this circle flows a bit better if you move it to x:396|y:252
- 00:36:158 (3,5) - Uh... maybe you should avoid this kind of patterns on Easy. Stacking and overlapping is usually (if not absolutely) restricted nowadays (yeah, they DQed a map for such a stupid reason). Idk, just saying.
- 00:46:939 (3) - Maybe a linear flow would be better here, to make the map a bit easier. I suggest placing this where the reverse of 00:47:408 (4) - is, and then move the slider to avoid covering the reverse.
- 00:53:033 (5,1) - Maybe swap the NCs here, to keep consistency? You're NCing every two downbeats, so you should do it here too.
- 01:00:533 (4,1) - ^
- 01:26:783 (1,3) - Hitburst of (1) still covers (3) sightly, so maybe you should move it to avoid overlapping.
- 01:30:533 (5,1) - Swap NCs?
- 01:49:283 (1) - Eh... I think you can actually map something here, instead of just placing a spinner. If you don't, other modders might say you're just too lazy.
- 01:58:658 (1) - lol, this shape. Maybe you should edit the slider since yeah, anchors are a bit weird (you can edit sliders after placing 'em, so yeah).
- 02:02:408 (6,1) - Swap NCs.
- 02:05:689 (4,1) - ^
- 02:09:908 (4,1) - ^ (oh yeah, and 02:09:908 (4,2) - also overlap...)
- 02:16:939 (4,1) - Swap NCs?
- 02:20:689 (3,1) - ^
- 02:25:377 (1,1) - Not enough recovery time for Easy. Distance between a spinner and a circle (or slider) on Easy must be of a measure (or four beats, whatever you understand), so you need to fix it (unless a BN doesn't complain, since BPM is sightly low).
- Rhythm-wise, this diff is good. Flow-wise, it still can improve a tiny bit. NCs should be consistent across the whole diff (in this case, you place them every two measures (or two downbeats)), so you should continue to place them consistently (Hard and Insane are exceptions for the consistency, since there are several special patterns that one might NC a note for mere fun or to make readability easier). Overall, map is good. Great job!
[Normal]
- 00:35:220 (2,3) - Fix blanket.
- 00:40:377 (4,1) - ^ (also, stack this under 00:38:502 (2) - properly)
- 00:43:658 (3,4) - Okay, here's a spacing issue here. You need to fix it with constant 0.8x Distance Snap value.
- 01:00:533 (3,1) - Swap NCs here.
- 01:04:283 (4,1) - ^
- 01:10:377 (4) - Ctrl + G this for better flow.
- 01:12:252 (2,3,4) - Fix double blanket here.
- 01:18:345 (7) - Consider making this a 1/2 beat slider with a reverse. It helps to follow vocal more accurately.
- 01:23:033 (1) - Okay... part of this is out of the grid (more like, actually off of editor screen), so it's obvious you need to fix it.
- 01:23:033 - ...don't change SV on Normal. It's practically unrankeable, since you alter both SV and spacing. Players on Normals are still getting used to the sightly advanced arrangements, and SV changes are a bit more advanced now. You'll need to fix spacing during this Kiai time, so be careful. Won't be giving suggestions for this Kiai time, since you need to rearrange this part a lot. I'll just say this: Fix your NC. Remember the consistency thing (every two measures).
- 01:49:283 (1,1) - Same as Easy (two spinners, but it's the same).
- 01:55:377 (2,3) - Blanket.
- 01:56:783 (1) - Remove NC.
- 02:01:470 (1) - Remove NC and swap NC of 02:02:408 (3,1) -
- 02:03:345 (2,3) - Blanket.
- 02:05:689 (1) - Ctrl + G this for better flow and swap NC with 02:06:627 (2) -
- 02:07:095 (1) - Remove NC.
- 02:08:970 (1) - ^
- 02:11:783 (1) - ^
- 02:16:470 (1) - ^
- 02:17:408 (4,1) - Swap NCs.
- 02:22:095 (1) - Remove NC.
- 02:24:205 (1) - ^
- 02:24:908 (3,1) - Swap NC.
- My thoughts on this diff are the same as Easy. Rhythm and flow are good, but NC consistency isn't great. It's good to play, regardless of that. But... I think this is too easy for a Normal. Also, the star difficulty between this and Hard is too great. If possible, try to add more 1/2 beat notes, to balance diffs a bit more, since Hard is mostly 1/2.
[Hard]
- 00:23:267 (2,3) - Fix blanket.
- 00:24:439 (6,1) - ^
- 00:25:142 (2,3) - ^
- 00:31:939 (6,7,1,2) - Maybe you shouldn't do this, since AR and BPM are too low to read this pattern properly. You should rearrange those notes.
- 00:37:095 (2,3) - Change into triplet maybe? It's just for fun, but I think it's easier to play than this.
- 00:38:267 (2,3) - Blanket.
- 00:39:439 (5,1) - ^
- 00:40:845 (4,5) - Triplet?
- 00:42:017 (2,3) - Stack properly.
- 00:44:830 (5,6,7) - A triplet is overmapping this part... there are only two notes (6 and 7). Erase 00:44:830 (5) -
- 00:45:533 (1,2) - Blanket.
- 00:46:002 (2,3) - ^ ...better check every blanket on your diff. I don't want to turn this into a huge blanket mod.
- 00:48:814 (4,5,1) - I know you're stacking (1) under another note, but this... is just weird. Maybe make those three notes a perfect triangle instead?
- 00:54:439 (4) - Place this on x:236|y:232 instead for better flow.
- 00:59:595 (1) - Remove NC...
- 01:00:533 (5,1) - Swap NCs.
- 01:49:283 (1,1) - Same as other diffs.
- 02:25:025 (1) - Eh... why this diff has such a long spinner? Maybe map it like the easier diffs, for consistency.
- 02:29:595 (2,3) - Triplet?
- ...this might be longer, so I'll make it short. Check your NCs (they must be on every measure/downbeat) and your blankets. Rhythm is good and flow is okay enough, but the NC consistency is lacking, especially on Kiais.
I'll ignore Fluffy diff, since you said I could do so.
Nice mapset overall. It just needs a little more work on small details and little stuff. I can see this ranked pretty soon.
Good luck!
