Playing some solo files, show off how sm can work with different keymodes? I have no idea what I'm doing.

Re: Guys, I got StepMania into AGDQ!!

IMO, choose things with:

1. Interesting music

2. High combo potential

3. Don't go all-out too early. Start out with some easy stuff and slowly work your way up to insane levels at the end. Make people think, "There's no way he could top this" with every song.

If you want to do a course, Ive always been a fan of the Windeu chart Printer Jam.

Im a fan of the "history of" aspect. You can even do this simultaneously with different types of charts

A VG medly as you talk about the game and history. FC is important.

Pick some famous "impressive" chart like
Disregard
Jackhammer madness
One minutes [edit]
St scarhand

I know they're not the hardest ones out there, but they're still ridiculous to 95%+ of rhythm gamers and mindblowing to everyone else.

Play a mod course to reset expectations.

End with a crazy dumpfile.
Agnus Dei pass would be impressive

Here to say this is the best advice all around.

I remember there were some talks about superplays during the previous months for GDQ and I'm glad you're the one to get the showcase. Good luck.

In short, I feel like the entire run should feel like this file

In summary: Climax Theory

Also stian cant vibrate (well) so those dumb vibro files are off the market. No doubt he will have a good line-up picked (plus some new content is likely going to be made specifically for this git hype)

$0.02:

- Have build-up, like previously mentioned. Like as a gimmick, you could play a file on 1.0 and then 1.5 right after. Doesn't have to build-up the entire way, you can choose some 'fan favorite' songs or stuff towards the end and I think that could work too
- Having an x-mod file in your arsenal would be pretty cool to show I think
- History in the form of famous files is overrated here, I doubt a high percentage of viewers are interested or can appreciate the significance. Just pick good music, challenging files
- Try to keep the audience engaged beyond the game. Tricky for SM but I'm sure you can find things to talk about

Re: Guys, I got StepMania into AGDQ!!

Groundhog or Buzzards (npv)


and then finish with Smudge

Re: Guys, I got StepMania into AGDQ!!
