Z-I-v Summer Contest 2013

There was a tiny error in my chart for Milkshake, so I fixed it and updated all the necesssary files. It's really not that big of a deal, so if you really want to, you can update the .sm/.ssc.

Wow that took a lot of time but I got through them all. It was a hard decision, for there were a lot of good files in this bunch.

Anti-cheesing the theme as hard as possible woo


a.k.a. "Point, Line, Surface, Solid". Song hails from the Korean BMS event, "PABAT!"
Technically the title is just the four shapes and is not romanized at all, but sound piercer (RubyGoon) lists it as "점, 선, 면, 입체 (点、線、面、立体)" on his soundcloud. I've chosen to use the hanja in the BG and jacket graphics.
Charts are "ITG style" and I would have made full dubzzzz but :sweetbrown:

I think that I found two perfect songs for this round

I present you インベーダーインベーダー song by きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ. It's fun 160BPM upbeat jPOP song.


And my second choice was obtained from the other side of youtube. Чумачечая Весна will make you smile for sure!


To be honest, I'm pretty dissapointed by this round. Nearly all files are asian... Hoping for some late entry other languages songs.

---

I REALLY tried to do stuff in Armenian. Honestly.

---

I had a few ideas for stuff in chinese/russian, but the charts were pretty bland :/

It's good things that you have at least tried

SP: 4/6/8/10/-

I'm surprised at how few options I had this week. Then again, a lot of the (steppable) music I listen to is likely influenced by Bemani, and at least 70% of Bemani songs have English song titles...

Eh, I've already submitted it, and I don't generally put videos with my simfiles anyway, so I'll pass. I appreciate your offer though.

Just adding up to the presentation, but it's cool

EDIT: @CLOUDIO you need you definitely need an mp3 straight out of the OST. I can get you my copy, along with the vid
