Hi, you won a mod.
[General]
I just want to state that I am not familiar with the rules of symmetrical mapping, that is why some thing appear quite weird to me. They are most likely correct though. I will still mention them.
There are several unneeded NCs in each diff except for Rakuen's Normal. I have mentioned a couple of them in the mod, but not all of them. You'll find them.
|I don't think this requires a countdown. You probably also don't need widescreen support and letterboxes.
|The background size seems to be unrankable, since it is larger than 1366x768. At least that's what AiMod tells me. I recommend asking ringating for a resize if you are as bad in graphical stuff as I am.
[Easy]
|00:09:613 (1,1) - Remove the NC on one of those.
|00:10:261 (1,2,3,4,5) - This part ignores quite a lot of important downbeats (00:10:910 - ; 00:12:207 - ; 00:13:505 - ) for the sake of visualization. Bad idea. I'd like to see some sliders starting on those marked ticks.
|00:25:667 (2) - It is confusing for other players to accurately tap a slider that starts half a beat earlier than the rhythm of the music suggests. I know that this alligns to the vocals, but it does not work too well. Just start on the following white tick. Also applies later at 01:27:937 (1) -
|00:31:018 (1) - remove NC because it's simply not needed. There are a couple more of those redundant NCs throughout the set. You'll be the judge.
|00:35:559 (1) - This spinner is too short. Not too short by definition in the criteria, but by real measures. I am pretty sure that a lot of beginners would score 100 on this because they lack of time to react to what they see. Even though this is probably allowed by the ranking criteria, it is very close to the borderline and should not be staying there. I would recommend starting it at 00:34:261 - . Also, the whistle doesn't really fit there. I'd rather use a soft-hitnormal sound.
|01:22:910 (2) - Ignored big white tick. You could end the slider earlier and place a circle on the free tick.
[Rakuen's Normal]
|00:23:234 (6,7) - Might look a bit better if those where round instead of edgy.
|00:37:180 - There is nothing exactly wrong with this part, but I suggest to put a break similar to the break in the Easy to make the spread more even. I'd continue with these objects: 00:46:586 (5,6) -
Guess this was pretty solid.
[Hard]
|00:19:991 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2) - repeating the same slider pattern four times worked the first time, but it just becomes plainly boring this second time. Try to be a bit more creative and think of a new way to fill this.
00:23:720 (8,1) - Those are pretty close to each other, if you space them with DS 1.0, then this will look a bit better.
|00:25:180 (5) - Why is this one not in the center of the 4 prior sliders?
|00:25:829 (2) - A bit too bumpy, doesn't look good and isn't well-playable. Just move the first red dot a bit up and the second a bit down. Also spread them a bit to the side to avoid making a weird shape.
|00:36:856 (5) - Again, the whistle. Do it like Rakuen did, sounds better. You might also want to abandon this break now, since we are already in Hard and not in Easy or Normal anymore.
I guess the rest was okay.
[Insane]
|00:13:505 (1,1) - Even the Easy is more dense over here than the Insane. Spreadwise, this is not good. Just fill it up a bit, you'll find a way.
Again, whistle and break, you know what I mean.
|00:52:099 (6) - Ignored downbeat. Also, the spacing at 00:52:099 (6,1,2) - is quite messed up.
[Extra]
|00:09:613 (1,1) - Please silence the slider ends with a volume downgrade or make those sliders 1/2 beats long.
|00:34:802 (3,4) - Those are pretty much spaced like any other 1/4 stream, even though they are 1/6. I would recommend using 1/4 for this pattern, even though 1/6 is suggested by the music, simply because it is more expectable. If you want to stick with the 1/6, then you will have to stack them or to space them less.
|01:00:694 (2) - Another ignored downbeat for visual's sake.
|01:02:802 - Missing circle?
|01:07:504 (5,6,7) - The star pattern looks good, but those few additional circles could probably be arranged better to look more.. appetizing? Maybe something like a triangle formed by 5, 6 and 7 with less spacing does the job pretty well. Here's a suggestion:
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/3099497|01:10:586 (1) - May be a bit too overwhelming. Maybe something like an anchor is better in this situation.
I personally think the Kiai is overmapped in this difficulty because of the streams. But that's just me.
Good luck. I can see that you have improved.
