Oh man who went and made the ending of Epileptic Crisis fun

I liked it better when it was one enormous handjack :P

It feels like the ending is too easy now given that it's the climax of the track. The handjacks were just stupid but now seeing how easy it is with the conversion (I was really worried the chart in general was going to be too hard) I think the 16th jumptrills should've also been jumpgluts with the rest of the 12ths. At least nobody's going to lose an AAA on it now though.

I'm impressed with how creative and non-gimmicky the d7 files have been given how difficult they are this and the previous round. The last time I tried to make a super difficult pure speed file I ended up with the monstrosity Ikill. I guess chiptunes are the only hope.

Yeah as usual it looks like framefixes completely neutered the ending by making it more or less 150bpm. Oh well.

File is fun as fuck though dude, I keep restarting on the weirdass 24th pattern like 70% of the way in. Mindblock city.

EDIT- upon consideration, I don't think framefixes fucked this. The 12ths should play like 150bpm lol
My bad, it feels like it should be faster but I think it's just... easy

I tried to make the 24th patterns as difficult as possible to match how difficult I expected the jacks and minijacks in the chart to be.

Ok tho for real:

D4: Really nice interpreation of The Devil Plays Dance Games for keyboard, the JS was tons of fun and it had nice pacing and overall a good chart
D5: Very nice bursty file like Hero Reconsidering, Breakbeat Acid, and also Firstaidvision. Short and intense.
I still feel like someone is probably going to find this harder than some 90s, it just feels like the kind of file some person will randomly be garbage at
The split roll to split roll in the middle was the hardest part for sure (and surprisingly un-Dossar patterning, not like that's a bad thing)
I'd guess 87 or maybe a really high 86?
D6: I agree the ending would be a lot more climax-y if the 16ths were also jumpglut patterns instead of trilly, but it's still an awesome file.
Definitely succeeded in matching the difficulty of the 16th jacks, 16th jump patterns, 24ths, and 32nds.
If I had to guess difficulty, I'd say 91. It has a Schmollbluk vibe in that there's a lot of concentrated difficulty in transitions and burst patterns, but the speed requirement is really only FGO

Yo, I'm really glad D3's song this round is so much better. I'm lucky that I got my best round 6 score early on because Suicide Pact was so unfun and the whole week I could not top it. Sooo looking forward to improving this round~~~~

[KrazyKitsune]

loved dysnomia and epileptic crisis, gj both of you

[HeZe]

The jacks will be the only hard thing for this round's D7 competitors

[ItsOnlyDanO]

Liked all the files I played so far (haven't played D7's yet but im sure it will be pretty good)

Feel bad for d1 with those jacks, surprised me when i first saw them

Epileptic Crisis is another fun hard file so gj

[_Zenith_]

Wasn't You Universe at one point much longer or am I misremembering the Combined You songs?

[rparty89]

fucking renatus was a huge level gap from false white.

them js at the end .-.

false white felt like a 63 while renatus was a 68 or 71 imo
