flow theory

a term that was coined by the mapper "7v" for the rhythm game "osu!", referring to how well individual objects on the playfield connect with each other. in a nutshell each object on the playfield will have its own "flow". flow theory basically delves into how the "flow" of these objects can be used in tandem with other elements such as visuals to better represent the music.

You: "Hey, how do I make a good osu! map?"
osu! mapper: "You need flow theory."
