A super fun level both visually and to play.

It doesn't take itself too seriously and somehow still manages to be amazingly themed and intense. This has some very dynamic deco and gameplay. The theming is very well executed and it uses the designs, movement and colors in any way you'd want.

The balancing leans pretty heavily into ship which bothered me a bit, but apart from that the gameplay is high energy and a blast to play.

You clearly don't own an air fryer.

Air Fryer has some of my favourite gameplay and structuring of any extreme demon, hands down, so huge props to razsta4ax for their awesome work on the gameplay. Many of this level's designs are metallic in line with the level's theming around an air fryer (although it feels more like a crucible or furnace), and are reminiscent of many 2.0 creators with the heavy use of highlight and 1.6 metal blocks in many parts, making for clean and relatively simple block deco throughout. However, Aimbotter makes creative use of tons of different structuring methods in order to spice up each part visually. Heavy use of slopes in the first half gives the level a pretty distinct style, and Aimbotter frequently reuses interior block deco to connect different structures as a bridge between the background and foreground, such as the metal cages at 0:30 and the tesselated triangles at 0:58. This makes the level feel fuller and gives a solid connection point between two or more structures that helps guide the eye on where the player should go, while also allowing for some crazy, jagged shapes in some parts to add a fresh spin onto the structuring. I also love the bouncing movements present in many of the parts, as these feel much more rough and mechanical than more typical ease or exponential movements and help sell the theme.

While I do like this level's strong theming, the transitions and effects are pretty inconsistent in quality and don't tend to add much aside from flashiness. Certain elements like the glow pillar following the player at 0:30 and the disintegrating effect around 0:52 are nice additions that add a bit of flair to their respective parts, but they work largely because they're fairly subtle and thematically consistent. The transitions are mostly black and white, and contain either spirals or just white flashes that either don't fit or add nothing to the parts around them, and in particular the transition from the first to the second drop part completely breaks the flow between the two parts because it feels so out of place. The level can also be overwhelmingly flashy and bright sometimes, to the point of being pretty unpleasant to play repeatedly (namely 0:39) and overutilises blue at the end with no real progression dictating its introduction in such a large amount. This level reminds me pretty strongly of Swirling Fire by Jenkins for its theming, design style and colour usage, but I prefer the way Swirling Fire integrates blue elements as the level slowly becomes more blue over time as it "heats up", ending in a superheated explosion of sorts, lacking distinct transitions like Air Fryer has. Some elements from this would definitely have helped Air Fryer feel more complete progression wise, and given it more overall cohesion.

Aimbotter is one creator who I feel is iteratively growing and improving on his style, so Air Fryer being as good as it is despite the pretty glaring issues I have with it speaks volumes for his talent. I would have given this level epic, but it's no doubt a fun, energetic level with great theming, and I hope to see Aimbotter address some of the issues I had in his future works.
