(view notes & credits) Hey everyone, it's Midnight. Sorry for being inactive for so long! I'm in highschool now so I don't have much time. But I have returned wielding a MAP sourced by my love for Vocaloid! (look it up lol trust me Vocaloid is cool) This song is one of my favorite Vocaloid songs and I thought it was a good fit for a MAP. The lyrics are about a person (Miku?) being obsessed with video games. Either that or they're about a person literally getting sucked into a video game world. Yay! And regardless of what the lyrics mean, at the end of the song the person has an epiphany and the video game world crumbles around them as they realize it's not as colorful and amazing as they thought. Throughout the song, they are asked if they want to "Continue" the game, and at the end they finally say "No." If you make a part, please use the Project Diva video (which I showed screenshots of in this project) as a reference! Don't use any pictures from it, but please do take inspiration. Also, this MAP requires complex and fast-paced animation so please only join if you can do that and have some experience. ✩RULES✩ (and guidelines) 1: Only one part for each person who enters. 2: Please aim to finish your part within a week of when you started it. Two weeks if you really need it, but please tell me if you're having any trouble! 3: Nothing in your part that shouldn't be on Scratch. (Inappropriate stuff) 4: Even though this is a Hatsune Miku song, you DON'T have to animate with Miku, a Vocaloid character, or a human character. It can be an OC or a character from a franchise (as long as it's safe for Scratch) and it can be any species. If you can draw Miku it would be good to animate with her, but it's not needed! 5: PLEASE remix to enter! Really. The reason I say this is that the lyrics in this project are supposed to be in your part. (HOW TO REMIX FOR YOUR PART) Click "Remix" "See inside" and delete the two sprites that say "DELETE" DON'T delete the sprite that says "KEEP" Go to Stage and delete the line of code that plays the parts Change the "Broadcast" block to whatever your part is, and change the "Play Sound until done" block to whatever your part is Attach the "Broadcast" block and "Play Sound until done" block to a "When Green Flag Clicked" block. Done! Then just work on your part and share it when you're done. 6: Only use 3 sprites at the most. You can maybe use 4 but talk to me first. 7: You can use some images from off Scratch (or ones you didn't draw) but only for objects, stages, or effects, NOT for your character. 8: Have something happening on the screen throughout the whole part to keep it interesting and upbeat like the song. Please refrain from making a PV (picture video) like what's in this project. 9: Animation. Not a PV please. (hint: Say your favorite animal, your favorite color, and a random word in the comments to tell me you read all the rules. For example, I might write "catbluelasagna") ✩LYRICS✩ (Translated by Karin’s Channel, edited by me Part 2: While collecting the fragments My console overheats and freezes My mom shows up so I pretend to sleep Part 3: Anxious about stumbling with my fingers, fingertips, and vision I cross over to another world Deceived by the upbeat rhythm Part 4: Ah, it feels so cozy and fun I think I want to stay here forever!
