Lovely beatmap, all difficulties, as always. Why not start with that?
General:- In my opinion, the bridge would sound better without the tick sounds. They seem a bit soft in contrast to how the song builds up there. And I like the cute little 1/3 instrumental bit.
- Some might say 'Of' should be uncapitalised.
- That background. It seems a bit silly to have a background like that for a song like this without going all out on SB and everything, and that's not going to happen (?). Perhaps you can find a more appropriate one? I'm sorry Sapphire, I love your art, but I'm sure you understand. In fact, I feel bad that I've implied that you are sensitive now, despite sensitivity being a good quality in moderation, so I will provide you with a story. Today, I purchased some muffins, from a supermarket called ASDA, which I honestly don't like as much as Tesco. They were blueberry muffins, and I knew I liked blueberries, but hadn't had muffins in several years. So when I finally got my precious muffins home, I smelt them and I nearly threw up from the sweetness. Well, not really, but I felt like I was going to; perhaps fresh ones are nice, but they just didn't smell healthy. So I was thinking instead of having these awful treats go to waste, why don't I do something with them? You know, maybe dye them blue. Perhaps put them on my head? Mash them up and make interesting imagery with them and take photographs of the result? See, people underestimate what you can do with
anything. OK Go told a sweet story with imprinting toast technology things and 215 loaves of bread. I suppose most people would throw bread away when it's gone a bit funny, and I guess that's fair enough. You can also feed the homeless if you don't have a creative mind. Or even if you do. But I don't really care, it's just a bit of fun. I'm starting to idolise Wayne Coyne, who made a poster out of his own blood. And is amazing.
- You should probably use the same tags you did on "Are
Their Giants Too..." for the same reasons.
Collaboration with Oneself:- It seems a bit strange to call this difficulty "Collab" when the joke it implies is spread across the other difficulties, as well. Unless you're channelling that other guy who names his hardest difficulty something out of place.
01:18:221 (2,3) - Maybe reverse the order of these, since (2) is slightly hidden as it is (though not too much, mind you) and reversed seems like a more natural direction. Maybe.
02:20:991 (1,2,3) - This spacing confused me on first play. However, looking at it now, I have come to the conclusion that I am an idiot. Make of that what you will.
02:23:626 (11,13) - You could move these a grid down, so that (02:23:355 (10,11,13)) form a straight line and 11 doesn't overlap 9 more than 8. Tiny, yes, but it bugged me that little bit!
Hard:01:40:653 - Missing kiai time. It's okay, sir. Also, I'm so used to this level of difficulty being an Insane from you.
02:08:221 (1) - I think this works slightly better with a repeat removed and the spinner adjusted if you like. Except I'm not exactly sure why! See what you think.
02:30:721 (2) - Moedaril would be disappointed with this spacing. And a lot of the spacing in the map. I could point them out but they won't because they play fine. I just noticed this one especially. Yes.
02:37:815 (1) - This drop in spacing might be difficult to read considering the previous 1/3 section uses similar looking spacing. I believe.
Normal:00:25:248 (5,6) - Only HP bar touchage I had noticed. Well done!
01:17:950 (1,2,3) - THESE SLIDERS! Are not very good! Compared to the last chorus's equivalent, I mean.
01:23:626 (6) - Might as well move this a grid left for symmetry. I mean, really.
Easy:00:34:977 (1,2,3) - Nice spacing increase here. (Or decrease on 00:32:950 (1,2,3,4), hmm? Yes, yes.) Could be a bit shocking for Easy players.
It might end like this. I'm always on about the Easy players, me, because it makes me seem thoughtful. Basically, might be confusing.
02:09:031 (2) - I'd personally make the ending of this more hearable, because one expects that from a slider. Still quiet, though. The same goes for the other one in the next combo on.
By the way, one of my muffins is being nibbled on by one of my cats. Note how I worded that, I don't want to appear to be talking about my cats too much, so I changed the focus of the sentence to muffins instead. I can't remember the actual smartarse English term for that, if there is one.
Also, by the time they're done, my mod posts just look like lines and lines of shaped lines to me. Maybe I should shorten my explanations a bit. Or not talk about cats or muffins or songs or ponies or QR codes or Marina. But then I'd have sold out. Then again, my actual amount of points for each difficulty actually look briefer than I expect.
