Re: request: EXTREMELY EASY songs batch (difficulty 1 songs and lower)

i think the idea of “make a chart that expresses the soul of the song” works well for the higher end of difficulty (so there aren’t “dump files”), but it could probably be waived a little for the easier end. imo a batch of charts with very fun to listen to songs that have a label like “tutorial mode” on them might be a good idea...

look, they have “baby areas” in mcdonalds too where they have all ur favourite characters but cartoony and theyre relaxing places to be in!!! thats all im saying...

Re: request: EXTREMELY EASY songs batch (difficulty 1 songs and lower)

The thing is we're a community content game, so people when they step a song generally step it in the difficulty range they play (not always but this is how it is most of the time) I try to usually make at least two difficulties when I make something so I can hopefully reach different skillsets, but not everyone is up for doing it.

You're always welcome to step something and submit it to us, and we're always happy to help out people learning how to make charts.

I made a super galaxy rumble file a long time ago that is still probably on the forums somewhere idk how I'd find it tho

Re: request: EXTREMELY EASY songs batch (difficulty 1 songs and lower)

Speaking of easy songs, I have one question: the FFR Level Ranks page shows two difficulty 1 songs (Trip to the Moon and SuperMario 8-bit 80s remix) that I cannot find at all in the song list (not even with instructions on how to unlock them). How do I play them? The easy song Geno's F-Forest Zero is locked and requires a pass on SuperMario 8-bit 80s Remix with at least 100 combo to unlock.

P.S. After FCing all level 7 songs and even FCing some level 10 songs on my first attempt, I finally managed to FC (even SDG) Excite Bike!

You need to go into options and click the box to show legacy files

Thanks! Managed to find them.

Just some feedback as a new user: I can understand hiding songs that no longer meet modern standards. I can understand songs that can only be unlocked by passing others. But combining the two is very confusing for new users, who will not know how to find the (legacy) song that they need to pass in order to unlock the song they want.

Another thought on legacy songs: Could some be "updated" to meet modern standards? That would increase the songs available especially at lower levels. The backgrounds are really nice and I wish some "modern" songs had them (though there should be an option to turn them off to reduce distraction when going for AAA).

Bumping this thread.

The release of Control has shown something pretty neat, at least to me. Look at the level stats page. A lot of the non-AAA scores on there are from brand new accounts.

From a tiny sample size of one it looks like releasing really easy files spurs some people to create accounts. Whether it's from the "accessible" nature of such an easy file or something isn't entirely clear. But I think this is something we need some focus on in hopes of growing or at least maintaining the game. Hopefully some of these new accounts stick around to play more.

Make more really easy files.

I don't know about a whole batch for this (as it is half the Easy batch is still unjudged) but I will +1 the need for more really easy files. Under difficulty 10, and even lower if possible.

Furthermore ideally some of those files would also have fun, energetic music - you know, the kind of jams that upper-level players enjoy. Lower level players deserve that. I have nothing against slow piano songs, but Tasselfoot's playthrough stream a few months ago showed that FFR's bottom-end is heavily overrepresented by trance/slow techno/slow piano. I don't have anything against files like that, but want to encourage some song choice diversity at the easier range too.

That said I'll try to walk the talk and intend to submit at least 1, but basically fill up leftover submission slots with very easy files of this nature for a few batches at least

Finger pointer in particular is probably the only easy file in this game I don’t like.

Re: request: EXTREMELY EASY songs batch (difficulty 1 songs and lower)

I am dedicating at least 2 of my 5 submissions each batch for files level 10 and under (Monstercat songs). Already have my current batch and next batch submissions stepped!
