Title should be changed to just "Dr. Wily Stage 1".

Super happy to finally see this one in submissions! Big thank-you to Latios212 for his hard work in making this possible, I probably wouldn't have ever released this otherwise.

By the way, there's a "simplified" version of this song on-site without 16th rhythms, and I believe our sheet eliminates the need for it; Latios agrees that it should be deleted once our replacement is accepted.

-m32: The C# on beat 1.5 is pretty hard to play for the R.H. (especially at this speed), maybe you could move that one to the L.H.? You could possibly then add a dashed line between that C# and the G# on beat 2, to further indicate this is the same voice.
-m33: I hear F# and G# above the B and C# on beat 4 and 4.5 (maybe in a separate layer, since it doesn't tie over into m34)
-The upper system of page 2 and 3 seem a bit lower than usual, maybe you could raise them (and with that all systems) a bit? If you prefer them this way, that's fine too of course ^^

That's all I have to say, looks great otherwise!

later edit: I also edited the submission name!

[Latios212]

Those are good suggestions I'll let Levi update the files when he gets a chance!

[Latios212]

Actually, Levi's been a bit busy so I got all of the above - for m. 32 we opted to just use a LH bracket as that'd be a little neater than cross-staffing.

Files updated, thanks!

[Bloop]

Awesome! The L.H. bracket looks good too, probably a bit neater than what I suggested ^^ I'll approve!

This is really good! The only comment I have is about m17/41 LH beat 3: the bass only plays for about a quarter note before cutting out; there's a clear rest after.

Latios had this idea before we submitted the sheet; consider it done.

EDIT: Accidentally deleted Latios's edits when I addressed the latest feedback, that mistake has been reverted now. Also, I made some minor cosmetic changes, added a simplified triangle tom part in m. 48, and restored the last countermelody note from m. 26 to 33 (specifically m. 31, beat 4.5)

Just a reminder for the other updaters about this - let's remove the simplified arrangement from the site during the next update.

Awesome, I'll accept now.
Great to finally have a replacement for this
