--- Recommended Option ---

to make sure you get the same experience on the skin, this is the recommended option screenshot :




--- Custom Lifebar ---

custom lifebar request is closed

but you can make your own using this .PSD (right-click > save link as..)
*forgot that you need the font file for the PSD to work :D*
you can get the font file here.
--- Requested Lifebar ---

i decided to move all the requested lifebar into one place (in-case you want to re-download so you won't need to scroll through the thread post), so here you go :

  2. NinjaBreadBro
  3. M!CKEY

I really love the UI. Love it... <3

However, the gameplay is... meh for me.

I understand you are attempting to give osu a hexagon feeling instead of a circle one, and on one hand I don't like it, because it isn't circles, but on the other hand I believe the way you put them in was really well done.

Tips: The health bar seems out of place, and some low spec computers probably can't handle your spinner. I suggest a more minimalistic one.

Feel like the hitcircles are too small, would rather have them be too big for the hitbox. The cursor is hilarious on the level of the old csgo skin with the gun lol. Best part of your skin is the menu sounds imo.

thanks for the feedback! ^^
i fixed the health bar to a more simple one, and trying to blend with other elements. also i make the spinner more simple too.

when i'm trying to make a bigger hitbox, the slider ruins it because the hitbox are hexagon, and there are no way around that (in my knowledge). so instead of hexagon, i make the hitbox circles.. i guess it's still gonna works because the name has -rcle on it xD
also i provide custom cursor on the skin folder under 'EXTRAS' you can copy some from there and paste it on the skin folder to get rid of the crosshair if you don't like it :D

i got an advice in-game for the skin,
1. make the reverse arrow more visible/noticeable (at v0.1 the reverse arrow looks similar to the hitcircle number)
2. also make the cursor a simple big circle as default (at v0.1 the default cursor are the one with crosshair, a lot of people annoyed by that xD)
because the crosshair are not the default cursor anymore.. so i decided to change the menu sound of the skin while still providing some additional resources under EXTRAS inside the skin folder.

any feedback/critique/review for the Hexarcle v0.2 are welcome :)

another feedback i got in-game
1. change approach circle into a simple circle
2. make scorebar/lifebar a non-animated one as default (because the animation on the lifebar takes player attention at v0.2)
3. the cursor trail distracting the exact posistion of the cursor (changed the color bright pink so it will be different with the cursor (additional white cursor trail available under EXTRAS))
4. the hitsounds on gameplay? (i decided to leave it as default as each beatmaps has its own hitsounds (untick the 'ignore beatmaps hitsounds' on options) to make it more enjoyable (except for some 'joke' beatmaps))
5. the hitcircle number? (i decided to leave as it is because...)
thanks for the feedback :D
hope to see more feedback on Hexarcle v0.3
cheers :D

Hey, i used it and the skin is pretty cool. But, the slider circles are a bit out of place.

No, not the dots or slider ball. I mean the circles you click. (Sorry if i didn't explain too well.)

your resolution for hitcircles in HD is 300x300 pixels, should be 512x512. SD should be in 256x256. Suggest to use default skin template.

yes, at v0.0 they are using the same theme, hexagonal hitcircle.. that was not out-of-place at all, but the gameplay ruined.. so instead i'm using circles right now, and looks out-of-place but that's fine i guess.. and if you got any suggestion to make it better but still using a circle.. i would really appreciate it :)
*by the way the dots on slider, i need to change it to a circle on v0.4 later because i'm using circles right now*

thanks for the feedback :)

i tried your suggestion resulting in this kind of behavior..
Preview
the hitcircle was too big there, i guess i will stick with the lower resolution one..
*i'm currently using a finished skin as a template. will use default skin template for future references*
EDIT1 : *the finished skin using 256x256 for HD and 128x128 for SD, mine just have some transparent area, but the circle size are the same.. i can get rid the transparent area later on*

thanks for the feedback :)

The skin itself looks really nice but playing with it is really hard :c
The glow around the cursor is the biggest distraction for me, but the transparency of the hit objects center part also becomes an issue when there are loads of stacked hit objects :/

thanks for the feedback Baka94 :D
i will provide a cursor without glow later under EXTRAS folder, but i will keep the default cursor like the way it is.
and i make the transparency on the center part to see if there's a hitcircle stacked, so the player can prepare for it. (sometimes there's a hitcircle exactly the same position below the 1st one, thus transparency come handy at that situation)
*btw the recommended background dim is 75% for this skin, if you have it any lower, then sure the transparency can be distracted, i will provide hitcircle without transparency later under EXTRAS folder*
again, thanks for the feedback :D

You don't need to completely remove the glow or remove the transparency in the circle center. Probably better would be to provide different transparency/glow rates where others can pick the ones they like the most. For me a faint glow and transparency will be just fine. If the transparency is too high it's hard to see which one of the stacked objects is the first one. The stacked objects move to the side automatically anyways. I personally use the approach circles to figure out the number of circles in the stack.

well you need at least a software that can open .PSD files properly (also download the font too, if you're planning to edit it yourself) :D
or you can request like mentioned in "Misc" part on the 1st post :D
