A notable remake effort, but is lost in direction and identity.
This is a well-intentioned project with clear passion behind it, yet it ultimately falters due to its lack of a solid identity or cohesive vision. Something I always discredit CherryTeam levels for is the inconsistency in theme, leaving the whole level feeling weaker and disjointed as a whole - MasmeCrescent shares this issue.
Unlike a lot of others, I'm actually a fan of relatively simple remakes and restructures etc, however, this level can’t decide what kind of level under the remake umbrella it wants to be.
The first part feels like a nice 2.2 deco upgrade with slightly refined decoration and tweaked gameplay; sadly, much of the rest of the level becomes a near-direct copy, often with weaker thematic choices or comparably disappointing gameplay adjustments. The majority of this level is misguided in this way and sometimes its straight-up bad. Overall I kind of like most of the parts in a vacuum even the ones that feel more like direct copies, they don't look bad, instead when remaking a level you inherently set yourself a high bar that you have to clear and although some parts passed this bar the vast majority did not.
Alright level, just disappointing and not a great representation for most of the talented creators involved.
