The sliders ARE pretty fast for a slow song like that but after a while it's feels fine and is pretty fun :D
Can't wait until you will add more difficulities :D (although There is a beatmap of this song alredy)
Well...

You can still map two maps of the same song. This song is so awesome that personally, I wouldn't mind playing two good maps of it =P

Wow, this is great too. This song is like an awesome map magnet. I like what you did with the hitsounds and that's a big deal cause I almost never notice hitsound stuff.

This is my girlfriend's ringtone for when i call her ^_^

dunno why.

Anyways, hitsounds are good yes. One of the things that makes it so awesome. If anything though, I'd recommend lowering the slidertick claps (ie. 00:51:464) by one full volume tick. It matches the actual hitsound a bit closer.

Consider using custom combo colours.
Consider adding an easier difficulty.
Keep the blacken storyboard element to the end; right now the background flashes suddenly again. Maybe also change the background colour to black, just for the loading screen.

I thought that hitsounds as a whole were too loud.

Consider silencing the sliders (the sounds when you hold a slider down, not the ticks or sounds when hit/repeat) during the softer sections. It's particularly noticeable in some places, like 03:20:013 (4) on Metroid Mix.

[Normal]

00:42:080 (1) - This section was too loud, covered up the lyrics. :(
01:02:014 - Excess timing section(s).
01:21:064 - Add a note? I kept hitting this instead of the 1.
02:58:014 (2,3) - I thought these could be positioned to look nicer.
03:11:014 (4,5) - Consider replacing these with a single slider. (maybe just delete 4 and move 5 in its place)
03:28:014 (3,4,5) - Whistles seem to be much louder than the other hitsounds; dull these down a bit?

[Metroid Mix]

00:37:063 (3,4,5,6) - Geometry police says that 3-4 and 4-5 look different. :(
00:45:029 (8) - Sliderticks sound pretty bad on this slider..
01:11:063 (5) - Move this back 1/4?
01:45:063 (1) - I liked it a bit more without the clap.
02:18:046 (9) - Remove note?
02:32:046 (1,2,3,4) - Not the best diamond. :(
02:48:079 (3) - Symmetry with 1?

[Hard]

00:42:080 (1) - Too loud again. :(
01:45:064 (1) - I thought this sounded a bit better without the whistle.
03:29:047 (3) - Add a finish?

Nice. Star~

It's particularly noticeable in some places, like 03:20:013 (4) on Metroid Mix.originally was gonna do that, but both custom slidersound and ticks are taken..


[Metroid Mix]

00:37:063 (3,4,5,6) - Geometry police says that 3-4 and 4-5 look different. :( fuck that
00:45:029 (8) - Sliderticks sound pretty bad on this slider.. No, I won't change it
01:11:063 (5) - Move this back 1/4?Not possible, it's occupied
01:45:063 (1) - I liked it a bit more without the clap.sure
02:18:046 (9) - Remove note?No, I like it as i
02:32:046 (1,2,3,4) - Not the best diamond. :(it's not supposed to be perfect...
02:48:079 (3) - Symmetry with 1? No, I don't follow symmetry



Nice. Star~

I didn't see an Easy when I downloaded, it only went to Normal. As well, the fade to black is good, except in play mode, there's a flash at the end of the original background, so my idea was to add a new keyframe later just to keep the background covered.

1 - then why is there a Easy modded in your mod post?


2 - I see nothing that bothers the darkening SB

1- kyto was modding Normal, but called it "Easy" in his mod post. Also, Normal looks easy enough for me.

2- fix'd the SB.

BREAKS. Make an Easy, too. You're not getting away with a Normal this difficult.



Note the black bar at the bottom. It shouldn't be there. Also, the letterboxing at the bottom of the wallpaper shouldn't be a part of the flash.

Metroid Mix:

Those speed changes just bug me.
02:53:079 - Kiai on 1/2 tick what.
03:30:063 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - MESSY MESSY MESSY

Also, Please don't do any changes that JJJ suggested on my difficulty, I actually don't agree with them and I like the SB as it is atm except I wanted to turn the glowoverlay from normal kiai to trigger loop.

I mean from note at 01:26:464 to note at 01:26:631 there's a too big distance between them, and because the jump is very fast it's kinda strange...
That also happens at 02:33:130 and at 02:54:464

actually, 1 it's not a jump, spacing changes during kiai on purposely, and 2 it's not that big or fast if it was a jump, I've seen way bigger and faster jumps before...

I love the glows <3
and rainbow sliders <3

[Easy]
00:48:014 (2) - Maybe make the last slider tick on this silent as well? =x

[Normal]
01:30:014 (1) - (nazi) move the last anchor up or over or whatever so that the bottom doesn't go slightly off-screen.

[Metroid]
00:45:029 (8) - slider-slide sounds ugly on this ._.; Silence perhaps?
00:48:013 (4) - ^
00:55:046 (9) - ^
01:00:046 (8) - ^
01:01:046 (9) - ^
01:24:079 (4) - Should be louder imo
01:36:096 (6,7) - (nazi) I don't like the noticeable gap between (5) and (6), so maybe move (6,7) down? :P
02:31:046 (4) - louder please~
02:43:063 (6,7) - move up
03:04:096 (6,7) - and down
03:17:046 (8) - ugly sounding slider-slide
03:20:013 (4) - ^
03:27:046 (9) - ^

[Hard]
02:31:047 (4,1) - Make one or both of these louder perhaps? :B

Oh, look, we have the same Kiai times~
I suggest you disable the countdown like Metroid's diff.
Also, I would've said to use a soft sampleset at certain parts, like the soft/first chorus, but I see you did some slidertick magic there, and I wouldn't want you to redo all of that.
BTW, make a normal-clap for custom1; different skins will clash with your custom slidertick2. ;)
One more thing: BREAKS. D:

[Easy]
01:01:474 - Consider a 1-repeat slider instead of those two hitcircles w/ a break in between?
What a short diff.~

[Normal]
01:43:064 (5) - Consider deleting this?

[Metroid Mix]
00:30:029 (1) - Move to 00:30:131? Adjust spacing if so...
00:36:029 (5) - Extend to 6 and then delete 6?
01:11:063 (5) - Sounds a bit weird when sightreading this along with the music.
02:24:046 (2) - Try adjusting this slider so the endpoint is centered while the slider is still curved.

[Hard]
Very cool. Couldn't find anything wrong here.

Nice SB there, Metroid. And nice maps, guys~
