---------------
Difficulty names come from Dynamix (Casual, Normal, Hard, Mega, Giga). Should I change the last diff to Giga so Mega makes sense?
Also the heck do I name the easiest diff. It's like not normal but it's like not Casual (Easy).

its time for ..


Well last diff is above 4 and i got some more people to mod so..

Fixed issues for all three.
Slightly bummed that last diff wasn't modded since that's where I tried something new, but rules are rules.
As for "Feels like [Year Number]," that probably means I should find some new beatmaps

Hello!

From my queue:





GL, HF!

Done.

i like hardstyle

[Keep Me In This Daydream]
- 00:09:650 (7,8) - 00:12:850 (8,9) - these should be stacked like 00:11:250 (4,5) - its just kinda hard to read that fullbeat gap as it is because its unexpected
- 00:14:050 (5) - should reverse once to cover the end of "night"
- 00:16:050 (2,3,4) - this is where i started wondering why the cs was so high, stuff like this just seems really cramped which is weird considering how much space you have available because of cs. should at least lower it to 5 tbh and try to make these parts less overlappy like 00:19:550 (2,3,4,5) - here especially is visually awkward
- the stream starts 00:38:450 (1) - here with the beat change but the melody doesnt change until 00:38:850 (5) - . could map this distinction by having 00:38:450 (1,2,3,4) - as two 1/4 sliders or a reversing slider idk
- all throughout the kiai you use the exact same rythym and patterns and its quite boring. try to mix up the jumps from just the triangles, and the 1/4 sections could be given lots of variety with 1/4 sliders etc. also the spacing is way too low for an intense part of the song while only being 150 bpm
- 01:31:450 - should probably be mapped
- 01:32:850 (1,2,3,4) - this rythym is really confusing because you have the melody on the 3/4 beats but the vocals still continue in the background on full beats. i wouldnt really know the best way to map this but i think you could get away with it being all sliders as that would still have the feel of a slow buildup idk
- second kiai is a bit better than the first in terms of variety but you can still mix it up a lot
- 01:53:850 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - this should be more spaced, like at least as much as 01:50:650 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - which comes right before it and is around the same intensity
- 02:07:650 - vocals here that should be mapped
- 02:13:250 (2) - 02:19:650 (2) - these parts here have a lot of sounds that arent being mapped, you have a lot of opportunities here to map more unique stuff that isnt in the rest of the map


good song i want more hardstyle in osu

overall your map style is pretty good on the consistency end of things but you should definitely try and focus more on shaping and aesthetics, lots of things are very cluttered and not-so-pretty which impacts playability and readability. try and give things more structure by choosing circle placements that fit the objects before them (like putting a halfway between two objects or stacked on something perfectly or making geometric patterns/shapes, like you do in the mega diff here: 02:14:450 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - )

keep me in this daydream
00:04:050 (5,6) - i feel like it'd look nicer if these tails stacked
00:05:050 (2,5) - could blanket and 00:05:050 (2,6) - could stack which would make 00:06:050 (6,2) - look nicer, too
00:07:650 (6,1) - try to keep a good visual spacing distance, these objects are probably too close to look nice.
00:09:250 (6) - rotate -10 degrees for a consistent circular pattern with the last slider, and same suggestion to stack the slider tails
00:10:250 (1,2) - rhythm should be other way imo (circle then slider)
00:19:550 (2,3,4) - cluttered pattern, and messy blankets.
00:24:450 (2) - delete middle tick and replace (accidental bezier slider)
00:25:250 (6,1) - stack slider tail?
00:34:650 (7,1) - should be a circle in between imo, and maybe make 7 slider into circles also?
00:35:250 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - 00:36:850 (7,8,9,10,11,12) - could look nicer (use a star pattern maybe?)
00:56:050 (10) - NC
01:02:450 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - try to avoid slight overlaps like 2,5 or 1,6 in your jump patterns, it makes them look messier.
01:23:250 (1,2,3,4) - doesn't look great, very messy and cluttered
01:27:650 (5,6) - avoid this slight overlap
01:30:850 (5,1) - insert break time
01:34:050 (5,5,5,5) - these sliders would look nicer if they were curved towards the left and more vertical than diagonal i think
01:39:250 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4) - i think you should try and focus more on the synth here than the drums, a rhythm like this would work well: https://i.imgur.com/9wvTfsh.png
01:40:850 (7,1) - swap NC
01:46:050 (3,5) - avoid slight overlap
01:46:850 (1) - this rhythm removes the emphasis of the sound that is on the tail here, if you do a circle and then a 1/2 slider starting where the end of the slider is now i think it will work better. also remove the NC (also applies to 01:50:050 (7) - etc..)
01:47:450 (1,2,3,4) - cluttered
01:51:450 (5,6) - this should definitely be a triple
01:52:650 (4,5) - this rhythm doesnt emphasize the music well and is confusing since it looks visually identical to 01:46:250 (4,5) - and others, making it almost impossible to read correctly
01:54:650 (5,6) - should also be a triple
01:56:250 - forgot a circle here
02:04:850 (1) - use 2 circles instead since there are two vocal syllables? (same with 02:08:050 (4) - etc)
02:07:250 (3,4) - there should be a rhythm in here
02:08:050 (4) - NC
02:11:450 (1) - remove NC
02:13:250 (2) - use two kicksliders to emphasize the bass synth? (this occurs more than once, i.e.: 02:19:650 (2) - )
02:14:450 (1,2,3) - it hink you should emphasize the bass synth here, maybe with something like this? : https://i.imgur.com/vDjJKqI.png (same with 02:20:850 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - )
02:18:650 - missing a circle here

mega
00:05:650 (5,1) - i think you should map rhythms to the vocal glitching here
00:56:750 (6,8) - avoid slight overlap
01:04:050 (1,2) - space more so it doesnt look like 1/2
01:25:650 (3,5) - avoid slight overlap
01:32:850 (1,2,3,4,5,6,1,1,2,3,4) - why is the first half a different rhythm than the second half? its the same rhythm in the music.
01:34:750 (1) - remove NC
01:39:250 (1,2) - i think using this rhythm for each repeat of this would fit better: https://i.imgur.com/dTcSK1C.png
01:42:250 (9) - the tail of this has a very important musical sound so it should be clickable
01:47:850 (3,4) - space more
01:46:850 (7) - i think moving this back 1/2 and then adding a circle where this slider used to start would emphasize the music better (continues, like here 01:50:050 (6) - and 01:53:250 (7) - )
01:48:650 (5) - this should be 2 circles since the tail is has a very emphasized downbeat
01:56:450 (7) - use 2 circles?
01:56:050 (5,6,7) - space more for emphasis?
02:03:050 (1) - you could smooth out the beginning of this slider so it curves more like a circle
02:04:850 (2,3,4) - this slider edge overlap doesnt look good
02:10:450 (6,7,8) - i think there's not enough rhythm here, you should try and fill this measure more
02:16:050 (5) - NC
02:18:850 (5,6) - 02:19:250 (6,7) - these have equal spacing but there is a different rhythm; this misleads the player. to fix you could stack 02:19:250 (6,7) -
02:19:250 (6,8) - stack

hard
00:06:450 (3) - NC (NC every 4 beats)
00:11:650 (5) - NC
00:18:250 (5,1) - ugly overlap
00:21:050 (5,6,7,8,9) - this star isnt perfect :< you can tell because 00:21:050 (5,8) - slightly overlap and 00:21:250 (6,9) - don't) to make a perfect star either hit ctrl+shift+d or copy the first two circles, paste them later and then rotate by 36 and stack them on the original two circles to see where the next one should go, and rinse/repeat
00:28:650 - i think you should have a circle here
00:31:650 (8) - this should be a 1/2 slider, not 3/4, there is a sound on the red tick
00:30:450 (5) - NC
00:33:650 (5) - NC
00:36:850 (5) - NC
00:41:650 (1,2,3) - same spacing but different rhythm gap. try to avoid this. (you could stack 1 on 2)
00:43:250 (6) - NC (every 4 beats would be better than every 8 for this kiai)
00:51:650 (11,1) - there should be circles between the slider and spinner.
00:54:450 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - this rhythm is really sparse, you could add more objects to make it feel more energetic, like making 00:54:450 (1,2,3) - into 1/2 sliders and adding circles before 00:55:850 (4,5) - these
01:22:250 (5,6) - this is a really awkward rhythm thats hard to read, https://i.imgur.com/16k9Xmf.png would work better
01:23:250 (1,2,3) - same spacing, different rhythm gap
01:28:450 (5,6) - should be mapped like you do this previously. the spacing looks the same but its the wrong rhythm
01:32:850 (1,2) - each of these sliders is following the same rhythm in the music but they are different lengths which makes this confusing to play. maybe instead, delete the 3rd slider in the combo and make 2 repeat.
01:34:450 (4) - NC
01:37:650 (4) - ^
01:40:850 (5) - ^
01:51:450 (5,1) - ugly slider overlap
01:54:450 (4,5,1) - avoid slight overlaps
02:03:050 (1) - i think you can make this slider look nicer, and make it avoid overlapping the slider before it
02:07:250 (2,3,4) - same spacing, different rhythm gap
02:10:050 (2,3) - improvable blanket
02:11:250 (4) - make this slider bigger so that 02:12:850 (1) - can fit in it with space around it, and also so the tail and head dont overlap so much (02:17:650 (1) - looks nicer)
02:14:650 (1,2) - sliders that repeat more than once are very hard to read unless they are 1/4 sliders, and these start on a red tick so its even harder. maybe do a circle and thena repeat slider instead? 02:20:850 (4) - it works better here because this time you start it on the white tick.
02:17:650 (1) - blanket isnt perfect
02:20:850 (4,6) - NC
02:20:850 (4,5) - same suggestion as before, maybe use circle + repeat slider instead?

normal
this is more of an easy diff than a normal diff. or you could call it 'beginner'. theres basically no 1/2 rhythm in the map
00:06:850 (1,3) - stack 3 on 1's tail
00:12:850 (3) - i would remove this since you are following the vocals everywhere else in this section exclusively
00:13:450 (1) - this slider feels lazy, its cool with the blanket on 00:16:050 (1) - but it doesnt follow the music well. try finding a rhythm for the vocals instead
00:16:050 (1,1,2) - these slider blankets are kinda messed up, and there isnt enough rhythm, this doesnt follow the music well.
most of this entire intro is just slider art that doesnt follow the music well, i think you should try and study some ranked normal difficulties to get a better idea of what rhythms to use for this difficulty.
00:41:650 (7) - NC
00:43:250 (1) - remove NC
00:42:050 (8,2) - 00:48:450 (2,4) - try to avoid having objects overlap so much
00:54:450 (1,4) - improvable blanket
00:56:850 (5,6) - don't stack 1/1 in the lowest diff since it confuses new players
00:57:650 (1,3) - avoid slight overlap
01:02:450 (4,1) - ugly overlaps
01:23:250 (1) - this is a slider art you can keep since its mapped to something in the music pretty clearly
01:23:250 (1,2) - try to avoid having the slider borders overlap
01:28:450 (2) - not the prettiest slider
01:39:250 (1,2,3,4) - doesnt look too pretty
01:46:850 (1) - why is there no rhythm until 01:46:850 (1) - ????? 01:46:850 (1) - the drop here is completely missed, you need to have a rhythm here
01:47:250 (1,1) - avoid slight overlap
01:51:250 (4) - 01:57:650 (6) - these would be better as a 1/2 repeat slider with a circle on 01:52:050 - // 01:58:450 -
01:53:650 (4) - NC
01:56:850 (5) - NC
02:00:050 (1) - remove NC
02:01:650 (1) - this slider should end 1/2 earlier so you can put an object where its tail is currently
02:05:650 (3,4) - avoid stack so that you are consistent with all 1/1 rhythms being spaced
02:14:050 (3,1) - avoid slight overlap
02:20:850 (4) - NC (also i think this shape could be prettier)

good luck!

From Huntress's mod (will look at dsco's soon due to school):

Hello mod from my queue~
dsco's massive ass mod probably covers most of the things I mention as well (since the map hasn't been updated with it yet) but let's see how it goes. Since you said you are slightly new to mapping I'll probably lean more towards the overall side of things since that'll probably help you more. Thus try applying things more than I mention since most of the time the places I say are just examples of the thing I mention.
Good luck!

Sorry for lack of update, I've been busy. Updates will come out soon™

Here comes both dsco's and TheKingHenry's mods. I just kinda mashed them together and only listed things I found most important. (I have read each part of it, don't worry)

Hi NM from my queue

[Normal]

1. Check AiMod, you have some in consistent distant snaps
2. 00:04:850 (3,1) - blanket these better, i wont be adressing them so you should look through the bad to fix those(only the really obvious ones i will probably mention)
3. 00:04:850 (3,2) - you should stack these, again aswell as this i wont be mentioning them
4. 00:13:450 (3) - you should start this on the white tick after so it wont confuse the player
5. 00:25:650 (1) - you should make this the same as the sliders before it for consistency
6. 00:30:450 (1,2,3,4) - imo you should use some different hitsounds for this, it doesnt really fit with the music(also (1) isnt like the others it still has a normal hitsound)
7. 00:40:050 - you should add a note here because its a pretty loud sound in the music so you shouldnt skip it, for emphasis i would put it on top of 00:39:650 (6) -
8. 00:52:850 - ^
9. 00:54:450 (1,4) - ugly overlap
10. 00:57:650 (1,3) - ^
11. 01:23:250 (1) - this slider seems a bit out of place, maybe just use the rhythm before it? (i get youre trying to follow the vocal here but using a big slider just doesnt fit)
12. 01:42:450 (1) - you have atleast 2 beats between the end of the spinner and the next note(how you have it right now is unrankable)
13. 02:01:650 (1) - same as the other slider mentioned

Overall this diff rhythm wise is fine(could be better in some parts) but you should really look at the aesthetics of the map(stacks, blankets overlaps, etc)

[Hard]

1. same here as normal with the stacks and blankets
2. 00:10:850 (2,3) - make this the same distance as before, it looks like these objects are 1/4th rhythm apart
3. 00:11:050 (3,1) - same for this ones but instead of 1/4th its 1/2, space them out more
4. 00:51:250 (1,2) - stack these properly
5. 00:52:250 (3,4,5) - you should use the same distance throughout the map only stuff that really sticks out in the music can have some difference in spacing but not a lot
6. 01:26:450 (1,2,3) - as a hard diff this would be too confusing for players
7. 01:38:250 (2,1) - space these apart, this overlap looks really bad

Same as Normal with the aesthetics, but you should fix the spacing on this diff. Use the same spacing for everything just the parts that stick out in the music you can have some differences in spacing

[Mega]

1. 01:34:750 (1) - no need for this NC here
2. 02:03:050 (1) - maybe lower the sv of this a bit?

Same as Normal

[Keep Me In This Daydream!]

1. Check AiMod, you have 2 timing points in the same spot
2. One thing i already notice in this diff is that youre too focused in the middle this will create a lot of ugly overlaps on your map, try to use the corners
3. 00:26:550 (3) - i would replace this with 2 circles, the sound are the same as 00:26:250 (2) - so having them as a slider doesnt fit
4. 00:34:050 (2,3,4,5,6) - this flow isnt right, its goes into the slider creating a really awkward movement, also the overlapping is really ugly
5. 00:39:250 (5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12) - this part of the streams looks really ugly, try to make it curve better
6. 01:00:850 (1,2,3,4) - why the sv change here? the song doesnt do anything different
7. 01:31:250 - random break here? no need for this because its so short
8. 01:45:650 (1,2) - why did you map the background sound here? the loud bass sound 01:45:650 - here is much more noticable than the background sounds

Overall the map isnt really great, you have a lot of ugly overlaps throughout the mapset and on the insane youre too focused in the middle try to space thing more out so you wont generate ugly overlaps, this also counts for blankets and stacks, try to map with the previous objects in mind and give the objects a meaning for why you place them in that certain position

Good luck!
