Custom Quiz Mode Sneak Peek

Hi, wanted to drop you all a quick preview of the Custom Quiz Mode, I've been working on for the last couple of weeks.
This new mode will feature a new quiz builder (shown in the video), that will allow everyone to design their own quizzes, down to individual anime/song picks and sample points! I'll go into a bit more details about how it works down below.
Beside just the builder, the update will include a browser, where you can look up quizzes created by your friends and published by others players, which can then be played in both multiplayer and single player game's!

But on to the meat of this sneak peek, the quiz builder!
Every quiz will consist of one or more rule blocks, these serve as the main blocks of the quiz. You'll be able to set the amount of songs picked from each rule block, and if they should be picked in random or sequential order. So if you want to create themed sections (for example an easy, medium and hard section), you can set up a rule block for each. The blocks are able to contain more than songs than there are picked from them, so it's possible to introduce randomness in what songs are picked for the quiz.

Once you have your rule block, you can add songs to them in 3 different ways: Song Blocks, Anime Blocks and Algorithm Blocks.
Song Blocks: The most basic blocks, representing a single song in the database.
Anime Blocks: Will pick a random song from the selected anime, you can toggle op, ed and inserts on/off for it.
Algorithm Blocks: Set up the game's algorithm to pick the songs, using the normal quiz settings.

All 3 types of blocks can be used and mixed, to hopefully create any quiz you would want.
Finally for the blocks, the rule block defines the base quiz rules (sample point, guess time, playback speed) for all blocks in it, but it can also be overridden on the individual blocks, so you'll be able to select the exact sample you want for each song. To make the easier, there's a live preview you can open the song, where you can edit both the sample point and guess time while viewing the video.

This is pretty much it for the Quiz Creator page, through one feature that probably won't make it in at launch, but I hope to add in not too far down the line, is an option to add all matched song in the library filter at ones (probably in their own block type).

Hope you enjoyed this Sneak Peek, any thoughts, feedback and inputs on it are more than welcome! I've had a huge focus on making it easy and fun to use, with the dragging (you can also double-click anime/songs to quickly add them) and the vide preview, so if there's something you think can be improved even further I definitely want to know!

As for when it'll be ready, I really want to get it out doing November (hopefully in a couple of weeks), so expect to see it in-game soon! I'm also planning a Patreon (probably level 4+) early access for it, but I'll share more details as we get closer to the release =)

That's all for now, been looking forward to sharing this with you all, so hope you like it!
