| 2 | For this contest I'm using a 25 point rating scale so I don't get fined. | |
| 3 | ||
| 4 | Danmaku Quality: 15/25 | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | Danmaku Quality encompasses the quality of the danmaku in your script. "Good" patterns will equal a "good" score in this category. What makes a pattern good is subjective, but the #1 factor is fun. A flashy, gorgeous pattern that isn't fun won't fare well here. Note that aesthetic factors can still factor into this - proper usage of sound effects and graphics can make an unfair pattern fair, and improper usage of those can make an otherwise-fair pattern unfair. | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | To be more clear, an "average" pattern is a 5. You can gain or lose points and I'll probably tell you why. | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | Individual patterns will be rated out of 10. The average of that will be taken and scaled to calculate the Danmaku Quality score. | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | Aesthetics: 5/25 | |
| 13 | ||
| 14 | This category encompasses how your entry looks (and sounds). While danmaku should absolutely come first, visual and audio elements are also a part of the gameplay experience. | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | Final Boss-ness: 5/25 | |
| 17 | ||
| 18 | 5 points will be dedicated to how well the character feels transformed into a final boss. It's a judgment of how their themes translate into a more "serious" fight. Mostly subjective, but I'll try to give detail about why I rated something highly/lowly in this category. | |

| 21 | - | Nonspell 1: Pretty typical Nazrin non. Not very interesting, lasts too long. 5/10. |
| 21 | + | Played as Flandre. |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | - | Spell 1: Seems pretty reasonable; quite slow and you should just stay in the middle. 6/10. |
| 23 | + | The opening is weird. |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | - | Nonspell 2: I feel like the bullets are painfully slow in this non. Still not offensive or anything; but kind of eh. 5.5/10. |
| 25 | + | Nonspell 1: This non is fine and why is she dancing. 6.5/10. |
| 26 | ||
| 27 | - | Spell 2: Not too interesting but not offensive. I think a bullet spawned on top of me once? 5.5/10. |
| 27 | + | Spell 1: Very slow to start but the pattern is...fine? Why is there a random jumpscare. 6/10. |
| 28 | ||
| 29 | - | Nonspell 3: More interesting than the first two nons, good work! Her random movement could be kind of annoying but it's nice. 6/10. |
| 29 | + | Nonspell 2: Timed this one out. The pattern is fine but she goes around all over the place. 5.5/10. |
| 30 | ||
| 31 | - | Spell 3: Seems thoroughly fine. Not a very interesting use of the gimmick. 6/10. |
| 31 | + | Spell 2: It's...fine? I don't like it very much but it's not super bad or anything. 6/10. |
| 32 | ||
| 33 | - | Nonspell 4: Fairly interesting too; maybe a little less so than the previous non. 6/10. |
| 33 | + | Nonspell 3: Pretty solid pattern. 7/10. |
| 34 | ||
| 35 | - | Spell 4: The laser that looks like it could kill you should probably be transparent or otherwise indicate that it won't kill you. I think the idea is kind of fine, but the implementation is boring. There are other ways to make a survival besides turning off player shots. 4.5/10. |
| 35 | + | Spell 3: Also pretty solid. I think the stopping bullets are pretty abrupt, but it's a neat idea! 7/10. |
| 36 | ||
| 37 | - | Danmaku Score: 5.56/10 (scaled to 8.34/15) |
| 37 | + | Nonspell 4: Also a solid pattern. I admit I don't have a lot to say about these. 7/10. |
| 38 | ||
| 39 | Spell 4: Pretty solid survival, too. Maybe too sluggish to start? 6.75/10. | |
| 40 | - | Aesthetically, I'd say this script is below average. Non-looping music leaving you with nothing to listen to, the patterns aren't really aesthetically pleasant, the backgrounds are super boring. 1.75/5. |
| 40 | + | |
| 41 | Nonspell 5: Aimed bullets from weird-ass places. Also fine! 7/10. | |
| 42 | ||
| 43 | - | I think the script's final boss-ness is subpar. 2/5. |
| 43 | + | Spell 5: Why is the cutin that. Why are there teeth. The pattern is fine though! 7/10. |
| 44 | ||
| 45 | - | OVERALL SCORE 8.34 + 1.75 + 2 = 12.09/25 |
| 45 | + | Spell 6: wtf. Anyway, the earlier lasers are so big they're kind of weird? But the last phase is quite interesting. 7/10. |
| 46 | ||
| 47 | Danmaku Score: 6.61/10 (scaled to 9.92/15) | |
| 48 | ====================================================================================================================== | |
| 49 | ||
| 50 | Aesthetically, I'd say this script is above average. Probably a solid 3.25/5 or so? But I hate, hate, hate jumpscares. Hate them enough to reduce your score to 1.5/5. | |
| 51 | ====================================================================================================================== | |
| 52 | ||
| 53 | I think the script's final boss-ness is...uh...too ridiculous to take seriously, so you also get a 1.5/5. | |
| 54 | ||
| 55 | OVERALL SCORE 9.92 + 1.5 + 1.5 = 12.92/25 |
