Taiko FAQ

Q - What game is this?
A - This is Taiko mode on osu!, a free-to-play rhythm game.  Taiko is based off a Japanese arcade game with real drums.

Q - Where can I play it?
A - You can download the game at https://osu.ppy.sh/p/download and change to Taiko mode on the bottom-left of the song select menu.

Q - What is your control setup?
A - I use a ddkk control scheme with the keys DFJK.  This keeps each color on its own hand, which has its strengths and weaknesses.

Q - Can I request songs?
A - Sure.  I'll play almost anything, but I struggle passing things that are above 6 stars.

Q - Do you play any other game modes on osu!?
A - I play Standard from time to time.  I used to play CTB and Mania as well, but now I really only play Taiko.

Q - Why is the stream quality so bad?
A - My computer isn't that good, so I can't stream at a high resolution or framerate because it makes my CPU work too hard.

Q - Why do you keep disconnecting?
A - Currently I am forced to stream on wireless, so expect my stream to disconnect fairly often.  I cannot control this.

Q - When will Pokemon be back?
A - When I get my new computer in late July/early August, I will be returning to speedrunning.  I will also have better quality.
