Horizontally scrolling arrows (just an idea)

I think it could definately make things a little more interesting. I mean, imagine trying to make out U, D, L, and R when they are lined up vertically and the arrows are moving from left to right (or vice versa). And instead of it simply making it R U D L from top to bottom, they could do U R L D or something (so that it's not merely the arrows turned to the side). I think it would make for one heck of a challenge. No more recognizing patterns. Maybe they could throw this mod in sometime. What do u think?

On Mission Mode on Extreme US they have a mod where the stationary arrows are all switched around. Its so hard to read. Now throwing horizontal into that would make it hell to read.

Yah, on FFR you can make the arrows go left, go right, up, down, even to the corners. Its hella-confusing.

Actually, it wouldn't be too bad if you did the proper order.

U
L
R
D

Wouldn't be bad once you got used to it. It would never be as vertical scroll, but it wouldn't be unplayable at all.

That would be so interesting..not to mention REALLY hard, but I'd do it. It took me a while to figure out horizontal arrows, why not vertical too? That is..if we ever make or get something like that..hehe.

I can read reverse decently, so if this became official, things could get pretty interesting.

They have a bunch of scrolling styles in stepmania, some of which are just insane. Like "boomerang", where the arrow go down to the bottom of the screen and then back up, so you have to play while ignoring all the arrows that are going down... it's weird.

Too weird, I'll just stick with one arrow mod, reverse.

Here's an idea, since everyone is throwing peculiar step-mods out... rotating position of where the steps are going/direction of arrows. That'd be quite confusing. But it would look really trippy, and that's cool, right?

It sounds like a great idea. Moving the stationary arrows horizantally would be a really cool addition to add. Heh, just imagine two player, and doubles, definately interesting.

I meant arrows appearing like this:

and if that is an option in the the game of STEPMANIA, then Thank You for referring me to that.
