General Information

HAPPY SKY marks what appears to be a new chapter in the IIDX series, with numerous changes to the difficulty ranking system and modifiers:

"Light7" has been renamed to "Normal"; "7-Key" has been renamed to "Hyper". "Another" has kept its name.
The difficulty scale, which previously ranged from 1 to "flashing 8", has been usurped by a 1 to 12 scale. All songs on the game have been rescaled to this new difficulty meter.
HARD CLEAR is now a shown status for clears. It is apparently considered a higher ranking than Full Combo.
Hi-Speed settings now range from 0.5 to 4.0 at .5 step intervals.
HIDDEN+ and SUDDEN+ are now selectable modifiers. Acting as an in-game towel mode, you can hold Start as the song begins and spin the turntable to set the amount of Hidden or Sudden you want to use. A grey bar will cover up the portion of the screen you choose. These can be combined for HID+/SUD+, but would have to be set for the same distance on both parts of the screen.
