Bold to assume hell wasn't unleashed from the beginning.

[@MaybeTophat]

The best sentence to describe this video

[@lullabibi]

I really enjoyed the very ending parts of "Get Fucked" as it gets all blurred and trippy, showing that you're dying. It kind of shows that you're dying through the entire stage if you think about it, but it's done in a way that it doesn't actually fully show it, if that makes any sense. Also am I the only one who absolutely DESPISES the music for the bonus stage? Sure parts of it are great but the vocal throws me off and just sounds really bad for most of the times you hear vocal. One more thing, 10-1 is definitely my favorite song in the game. Either that or Kioku or whatever you call it, and Tang Pong.

[@CosmicLAER]

Opinions are valid :3

[@tracyblanchard7663]

Yeah, I get that. It sounds a bit grating, especially after all the low tones of Get Fucked. And GF was always going to be a tough act to follow, that one's just pure gold. Love the doubles dance to cap it off though!

[@lullabibi]

@@tracyblanchard7663 god my comment is 4 years old holy Shit i didnt even realize but for real, this still holds up soooo god damn well. i still dont like matoi as a song, it triggers dissociative episodes for me ive realized and thats like, whoops. not much to do about that. the stage itself though??? GOD its so pretty 🙏🙏 the doubles stage was a really cool thing to pull at the end, i wish i could play it though. man i love uksrt

[@rovhatree]

1st half of the video: this game looks cool, wouldn,t mind playing it. 2nd half of the video: HOW THE F*** DO YOU READ THAT!?!? Amazing work tho, especially on SHAME, an amazing character!!

[@FalselyProfound]

Thank you for a full upload! The amount of work that goes into these tournaments never ceases to amaze. Looking forward to next year, for sure.

[@CosmicLAER]

UKSRT8 was started almost two years ago! With all the new additions to openITG (fuck.exe namely) it definitely needed the extra time to get used to and understand the potential of all the new things that were added :3 Also it gave me time to flesh out the story and do decent artwork for it x3 It'll be hard to top this one, but with UKSRT9, we will damn well try.

[@FalselyProfound]

Holy moly. I knew you guys were modding the hell out of the system, but it never occurred to me just how much time you must've spent making fuck.exe. That's incredible.

[@flagonking1337]

Rewatching the three parts of this story, Dr Giger clearly has something to do with SHAME, and SCOLD was probably his doing as well. Irma might have become the mind behind SHAME, and Amagi got caught in the crossfire. WHAT IS THE POINT OF THIS GIGER?!

[@flagonking1337]

Thanks to the trailer for 11, I may have gotten the roles of Amagi and Irma wrong.

[@CosmicLAER]

I'm so glad you like her! And I'm pretty sure she'd be fond of you, too~.. ;3c A lot of my character designs are practically on-the-spot brainfarts, SHAME is just a particularly good one :^3 There were a bunch of redo's from the original sketch I did about a year and a half ago, where she looked way more 'human' looking (a normal shaped face, smaller mouth etc.). Drawing her is so much fun and I can't wait to bring her back next time with even more wacky expressions uwu

[@Dafisha]

>Wacky expressions like my profile pic?

[@nobgs4505]

Considering this is based on Trauma Center, if I had to guess, she as a sort of "concept" is based on GUILT.

[@SMmarcus100]

Omg it looks figgin SICK in line out! I'm also really impressed on how well you can read these files, despite how hard they are (maybe it's because you made these courses, lol.) Anyways, I have a couple questions. One, when will the OpenITG build with fuck.exe be released? Two, when will the UKSRT8 pack be released (I heard it's end of 2016 - beginning of 2017, just not quite sure) Again, this is just amazing! I'm really excited to hear that there will be a UKSRT9 in the future as well, with SHAME!! :D

[@Taro4012ITG]

Fuck.exe is currently being given out to friends, but when a very stable build is made, I'll release it publicly. I am likely to release UKSRTALE with UKSRT8 but I'm not sure.

the rippling effect at the beginning of tang pong. Around 26:50 ? Was it that "dramatic" during the tournament. The video of the tourney may not have given the effect complete justice. Also, you are a fantastic artist. How long have you been doing it? Sorry. I write long.

[@CosmicLAER]

The rippling shader wasn't present during the tournament itself due to the software not working at the time :c We made sure it was functional while recording this line-out though! And thank you very much! ;w; I appreciate that a lot, seriously. I've been drawing for a while but take a long time to improve, however I think the art I did for this was pretty good :'3 hehe.

How does the "Find Hidden Step(s)!" game work in the Maruwaru Simulator 2016 level?

[@grey5528]

I'm not sure, but I think there is a very subtle visual effect where the the arrow should be.

[@CosmicLAER]

It's a bit cheeky because it relies mostly on knowledge of the original chart it's based on, the hidden steps are ones that are present in original :3 Mawaru Simulator 2016 is pretty unbalanced due to the time constraints we had, we didn't have time to test it enough, BUT everyone who played it dealt with the same unfairness so in that, it was pretty fair all around :V If and when we released it, it'll be much more fair.

[@DIYDamian]

+CosmicLAER maybe the hidden steps are visible for only a brief amount of time at the bottom of the screen and then they disappear. Might be hard to time the Hidden/Sudden mods tho. Or taro will just add a pinch of pixie dust and magically make the arrow disappear without mods. Idk

[@commandhat]

Overlay pixie dust can make arrows go away with only a couple pixie dust thanks to Puuro's mask work.

Oh wow, these look even more amazing here. I'm pretty sure I'll have fun playing this (Even though I'm not the best at these.) I do have multiple questions, though: 1. The executable's name is fuck.exe, but will there be a linux(or mac) version for people like me who don't want to/can't run Windows? 2. Since I'm someone who plays on Stepmania 5 (though, I have OpenITG for when I can't run things (Or when I can't convert things to run) in SM5), is there or has there been consideration of an SM5 version (or an SM5 version of some stages)? (I think 5.1 has a new mods system allowing custom-made mods)

[@CosmicLAER]

1) I highly doubt it :c 2) This is a possibility but for a very far-off future, due to the nature of a lot of the mods and code within the files. If we were to make a SM5 port sooner than later, a LOT of the effect would have to be removed or changed to compromise, and in all honesty it wouldn't be the same... But, we'll see what we can do! Right now the priority are the 2017 tournaments and UKSRTale :3

[@Tricky_T_Raptor]

Also, what happens if you fail one of the operations during the Phantasm stage? :o

[@CosmicLAER]

So, here's the interesting and special thing about the Phantasm - Taro implemented a function called 'SetSongBeat' within fuck.exe that allows you to warp to places within a song (previously not possible in openITG!), so in the instance of you failing an operation, you would be forced to try it again from the operation selection screen. It basically allows you infinite retries until you pass it.

[@DIYDamian]

It's only 4th arrows (red arrows) Good for beginners

[@CapsaicinChips]

DIYDamian Thank you. :)

[@Tricky_T_Raptor]

What exactly is "little mode"?

[@CosmicLAER]

"Little Mode" is an option that can be activated to alter the chart within the stage :3 It removes all other arrows other than the red ones (so, all the 4ths remain), making the chart easier for those who aren't quite so good but it will affect the overall score dramatically.

[@Ky_Dash]

Is essentially a different (easier) chart, but just with 4th notes, or does it literally take out every other note and leave the original 4ths intact.
