Ok so after like 2 weeks, I realized that most of my complaints were just from me being unable to read certain rooms, and that the first half isn't as bad as I though it was. Berry 2 still is kinda bad tho, but yeah it's a lot better than I remembered.
(Old comment): I have extremely mixed opinions on this, because the second half of this map is so insanely good and amazing. The first half kind of sucks ass tho, and I also hate swap block gameplay so that didn't help. ALSO the ambience is waayyyyyyyyyyy too loud sometimes. Again, 2nd half made up for a lot of it luckily.
berry 1 suck ass btw (edit: berry TWO #2 i l;ove berry 1 my mistake)
Enjoyability: 65-85/100

Ok context: I tried this a few months ago, got stuck at room 5 and rage quit, beat some maps, went back to try 24 for a bit, then got bored again.
Eventually I got to trying Election D-side and cleared ALL rooms except the blind room. The problem was… it sucked. I was getting nowhere, so i thought Id beat another map while still attempting it. Somehow I thought Dashless+ would be a good idea, but then I beat like 9 rooms in a day somehow, to which I kinda just forgot about Election D-side to focus on this map. Also seeing some other clears fueled me with vengeance / spite or whatever to clear this map.
Thats all the context, enjoy the statistics now.

Now the actual map.
I remember hearing about this map, but it was commonly portrayed in a more negative light simply cause it was dashless gameplay. But eventually as more people cleared, people were talking about how fun the map was. And believe it or not, theyre right! This map was really fun (aside from a few rooms). But by FAR the biggest issue with this map wasnt the maps fault, but due to the keyboard I was using.
One of the biggest factors in me just not being able to clear rooms is my keyboard. Its 50hz, which is really bad and means I cant consistently 1 frame tap. This makes some lineups stupidly annoying to set-up or just straight up luck. Rooms 12, 16, and 24 are offenders of this, I just had to accept that sometimes my subpixels wouldnt work for the a set-up. I dont mean this in any condescending way, but I really think I couldve cleared even faster and definitely enjoy the map more if it werent for my unfortunate keyboard. But I DID realize about halfway through room 24 that I didnt need to ONLY use my keyboard. I tested out my Switch Pro Controllers d-pad and sure enough, it could reliably 1f tap. And after a short 2 day break and another day of playing, I beat the room.
Overall, I had a great time with this map. With all the new strats, its definitely not as hard as it used to be but still extremely difficult nonetheless. Id like to shoutout Issy, Ninz, and Celestecord for a lot of strats used. Aswell as Arti and Kaleb_22 for giving the the spiteful energy to actually start this map. Thank you to everyone!
also fun fact 24 took less time than LXVI Venus????? lmao how")

20 #2, very sloppy but a clear nonetheless
Pls demote to at least A or B this is a gimmick chart. This is also a very fun chart that everyone should clear at some point.
I cant stop uploading in 480p 30fps please help")

This map was created for the 3rd Music Translation Contest. I participated in the 2nd one last year and made the mistake of accidentally mapping (at the time) hardlist gameplay. I was originally having a lot of trouble coming up with ideas, and was gonna do an AQUA grapple hook map. But the gameplay felt too inconsistent for me to keep moving forward. Luckily, my second idea ended up getting me somewhere, and found some very silly interactions with the shrimp entity. By far the hardest part was figuring out how to deco the map in the way my mind was envisioning it. Again, I luckily managed to create a deco style that (in my opinion) worked out to look pretty nice. Overall the map is high expert, and I hope you enjoy.")
