General Information

• Slogan: Just Got Splash Beats!

Changes

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/Light14" has been renamed to "Normal7/Normal14"; "7Keys/14Keys" has been renamed to "Hyper7/Hyper14". "Another7/Another14" has kept its name.
• The difficulty scale, which previously ranged from Level 1 to Level 8+, has been usurped by a Level 1 to Level 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.
• RANDOM+ is unlockable.
• (E-amusement only) Added a new feature: Customizing the Select Music background (Standard, Expert, and Class Courses) instead of the default HAPPY SKY Select Music background via IIDX WAVE (Konami's mobile service for customizing arcade experience). Customized Select Music background from dj TAKA, TOMOSUKE, and DJ Yoshitaka are available. Select Music background from previous styles from 7th style to IIDX RED are also available.
