2017-11-06 16:32 Side: o hey tess are you still up for that testplay? :v
2017-11-06 16:32 Tesseract: i would be but i'm not on my pc
2017-11-06 16:32 Tesseract: i can take a look tho
2017-11-06 16:32 Side: sure
2017-11-06 16:33 Side: ACTION is editing [http://osu.ppy.sh/b/1459156 M2U - Brown Wind [Warmth]]

2017-11-06 16:41 Tesseract: 00:27:191 (3) - no real reason for this to be a return slider since you didn't do that anywhere in this section
2017-11-06 16:41 Tesseract: 00:32:401 (1,2,3,4) - Cool beans
2017-11-06 16:42 Tesseract: 00:39:033 (3) - nc this so the player can know that things change here
2017-11-06 16:43 Tesseract: 00:51:033 (3) - this note is placed inconsistently with (1), make sure to keep positions even if you're going for symmetry
2017-11-06 16:43 Side: I kinda like the variety of that 1st one personally.  changed the second thing tho
2017-11-06 16:43 Tesseract: but the song isn't varied
2017-11-06 16:43 Tesseract: so why is map varied
2017-11-06 16:43 Tesseract: in that section
2017-11-06 16:44 Tesseract: 00:52:296 (1) - no need for nc here
2017-11-06 16:45 Tesseract: 01:07:454 (1) - this is straight, but these 01:07:770 (2,3) - are bent even though they're all representing the same sound
2017-11-06 16:45 Side: the highlight for me is the clickable sounds like 00:19:454 (2,3) - while 00:27:507 - could be clickable I don't think it's something that's badly needed.  although I don-t realy mind changing it
2017-11-06 16:45 Tesseract: prob best to make (1) similar to 2 and 3
2017-11-06 16:45 Tesseract: it's better for consistency imo
2017-11-06 16:46 Tesseract: feels random as hell how it is right now
2017-11-06 16:46 Tesseract: i get your point but yeah, i'm not a fan of randomness in maps
2017-11-06 16:46 Side: aite I'll play around with it
2017-11-06 16:46 Tesseract: i think every object should have a purpose and relate to the song
2017-11-06 16:46 Side: for 00:51:033 (3) - you mean to sorta mirror (1)?
2017-11-06 16:46 Tesseract: yeah since that's a symmetrical pattern 
2017-11-06 16:46 Side: like more towards the left?
2017-11-06 16:47 Tesseract: but it's not symmetrical
2017-11-06 16:47 Tesseract: yeah
2017-11-06 16:47 Side: k cool
2017-11-06 16:47 Side: eyeballed that one poorly xd
2017-11-06 16:48 Tesseract: 02:42:612 (2,3,4) - there's several 1/3 streams like these and they always have the same spacing as regular streams
2017-11-06 16:48 Tesseract: you should really have some form of indicator that 1/3 is different from 1/4, visually, imo
2017-11-06 16:49 Side: I didn't really like how that looked with higher spacing
2017-11-06 16:49 Side: and idk how telling NC spam is there but I'd assume not so good
2017-11-06 16:50 Tesseract: doesn't need to be higher spacing, you can displace the objects somehow or adjust their placement or some other thing
2017-11-06 16:50 Tesseract: get creative, i don't wanna tell you how to map, just what can be improved
2017-11-06 16:50 Side: although so far all testplays seemed to FC that and got the rhythm down on the next ones over
2017-11-06 16:50 Tesseract: hm
2017-11-06 16:50 Tesseract: fair enough
2017-11-06 16:51 Side: I'll look through a few other examples for other ways to approach that though
2017-11-06 16:51 Side: maps*
2017-11-06 16:51 Tesseract: 02:57:507 (2,1) - i get what you're trying to do here but you make a jump despite the song not really making a jump
2017-11-06 16:51 Tesseract: the rest is fine but it just seemed odd to me
2017-11-06 16:52 Tesseract: it's not too big spacing so it's not like a huge deal
2017-11-06 16:52 Tesseract: just a minor quality thing
2017-11-06 16:53 Tesseract: 02:57:822 (2,1,2) - is really (1,2,3) musically
2017-11-06 16:53 Side: I had them stacked to the previous notes I might change that back
2017-11-06 16:53 Tesseract: that'd be cooler imo
2017-11-06 16:53 Tesseract: and more fitting
2017-11-06 16:54 Tesseract: 03:34:296 (1) - this doesn't happen in any other spot, it's not bad imo but take care with this lmao
2017-11-06 16:55 Tesseract: 03:43:770 (1,2,1) - why not a 120 pattern?
2017-11-06 16:55 Tesseract: seems fitting here
2017-11-06 16:55 Tesseract: 03:47:559 (1,2,3) - if you applied the other symmetry mod then u should prob make this symm as well
2017-11-06 16:56 Tesseract: 04:09:822 (2) - this can just be 2 circles, doesn't make sense otherwise. pretty random to put a slider here
2017-11-06 16:56 Side: yeah 120 works
2017-11-06 16:57 Side: kinda like how that 1/4 slider looks ;/
2017-11-06 16:57 Tesseract: 04:15:033 (1) - this placement is SO weird to me, i mean at least musically it makes sense since the sound drops a lot, but visually i think this entire thing 04:14:086 (1,2) -  could be better
2017-11-06 16:57 Tesseract: yeah but it's random
2017-11-06 16:58 Tesseract: if you used it often then ok
2017-11-06 16:58 Tesseract: but it's just that one instance
2017-11-06 16:58 Tesseract: and the music doesn't really beg for it or anything
2017-11-06 16:59 Tesseract: 04:17:875 (1,2,3) - visuals could be better here imo
2017-11-06 16:59 Side: there aren't many instances in the song where that could have been tried again.  It's more of a melody changing into the final verse thing
2017-11-06 16:59 Tesseract: 04:42:191 (2,3,4,1) - this is good 1/3 imo
2017-11-06 16:59 Side: obviously its no big deal changing it to the notes tho
2017-11-06 17:00 Tesseract: yea it's up to you i just Really don't like it
2017-11-06 17:00 Tesseract: 04:54:507 (3,4,1) - eh, no, again random, just put (4) near to the head of (1)
2017-11-06 17:00 Tesseract: even the (4) note is the same as (1) in the song
2017-11-06 17:00 Tesseract: it's (3) that's different
2017-11-06 17:01 Tesseract: aIso this can't be approved
2017-11-06 17:01 Side: oh yeah and about 4:15 glad you picked up on that pitch drop :D
2017-11-06 17:01 Tesseract: yea
2017-11-06 17:01 Side: though it could look better
2017-11-06 17:01 Tesseract: but yeah it's 4:57 so u need to map more
2017-11-06 17:01 Tesseract: feelsbad
2017-11-06 17:02 Tesseract: i mean
2017-11-06 17:02 Side: wasn't planning on ranking this but I do still wanna get better at mapping
2017-11-06 17:02 Tesseract: aha
2017-11-06 17:02 Tesseract: then yeah
2017-11-06 17:02 Tesseract: good spot to end
2017-11-06 17:02 Side: so I'm looking for some feedback
2017-11-06 17:02 Tesseract: it's a good map
2017-11-06 17:02 Tesseract: best i've seen from you
2017-11-06 17:03 Side: thanks :)
