On vibes alone this is an 8, it might go up or down once I play it.

EDIT: After playing, it remains an 8. Really good gameplay, but a couple things about it still bothered me.

the hill with flowers by dr0me is an extremely limited colour pallet experimental level- although I can't put my finger on why it reminds me of a Thycket level. Despite this, I found myself struggling to connect with it.

There are a lot of experimental levels I am a fan of, but this is not one of them. Although I understand the vibe of the song and like some elements, it feels like its been stretched too thin across its 4 minute runtime. The level is empty in a lot of parts, often not to the benefit of said part, most notably the end part, which is 50 seconds long and flat-out uninteresting.

"the hill with flowers" is one of the few experimental levels I simply don’t enjoy. It’s not bad for sure, but rather just underwhelming for me. Maybe it’s the pacing, maybe it’s the lack of real depth in its minimalism, but whatever it never clicks for me like it has for other levels in its niche.
