Hey.
First thing that caught my eye is eAZY instead of eA
SY. You can also add th11 to tags if that matters anything for you.
You should really find a QAT to fix the title's appearance for you; it's so long that it goes well off the screen. Following
https://osu.ppy.sh/wiki/Changing_Title_Text, there are two ways to do this:
- Insert a line break, presumably after "THE WORLD,", like it's been done for kanbu de todomatte blah blah:
[size:20,bold:0]CYTOKINE|sEE NEW THE WORLD,|SHE KNEW THE WORLD - CYTOKINE Remix
OR (recommended to try first)
[size:20,bold:0]CYTOKINE|sEE NEW THE WORLD, SHE KNEW THE WORLD|[size:20,bold:0]CYTOKINE Remix
- Use a smaller font size for title only (maybe 30 will do):
[size:20,bold:0]CYTOKINE|[size:30]sEE NEW THE WORLD, SHE KNEW THE WORLD - CYTOKINE Remix
[lUNATIC and hARD]
- 01:29:326 (1) - move it 1/2 backwards? I like how it creates a 1/1 gap, which emphasizes the vocals
- 03:08:882 (1) - ↑
- 02:00:437 (3) - you could make a nice long slider here for obvious reasons
- 03:39:993 (3) - ↑
[hARD]
- 00:50:660 (2) - I'd bend it too to make it match the shape of 00:50:215 (1)
The only real (but at the same time major) complaint I have regarding lUNATIC (and probably hARD too) is about the way you mapped pre-chorus parts. The constant use of triplets instead of doubles is, in my opinion, a worse representation of song. For example, listen to 00:45:549 (4,5,6). What the song really calls for is a pair of doubles:
https://tc.s-ul.eu/9zUpjvSW.png, which is welcome both by an accented syllable at 00:45:660 and a drum hit at 00:45:882. The same goes for 00:49:104 (4,5,6,7) and other similar patterns before preview point, 01:11:549, and the part after the second break, 02:22:660 to 02:51:104. You can make it mORE iNTERESTING to play if you follow my advice.
There are also notes you didn't map, like 00:44:104 and 00:47:660, but I'll leave it up to you (seems like you prefer vocals over anything, which isn't a bad thing at all).
I would also add slightly more hitsounds (specifically, normal hits or drum finishers) on sections 00:43:104 to 00:57:326 and 02:22:660 to 02:36:882. Examples:
- 00:43:771 -
- 00:45:549 -
Finally, I'd make purple and blue combo colors less bright, changing them to
(225,75,125) and
(45,125,210) respectively.
All the best!
