This got a criminally low placement in the contest. It was still high enough to get a mythic rating, but not even top 5? Criminal.
This level is the GD implementation of the term "Larger than Life". It excels at making you feel small, but not too much where you can't revel in the wonders of the level.
I still don't even know what to write here, even months after this released its still insane to me. Close to being the perfect space gauntlet entry for me, I loved Planispheres so seeing more abstract approaches (as opposed to how most levels interpret space) to the space gauntlet prompt was wonderful.
The way the level works with its song is crazyyyyy. I love this genre of music (not really sure which it falls under, I'm not really knowledgeable with music) so this song gives the level a wonderful amount of charm for me. The level works really well with it, using it to build up an almost surreal environment while keeping enough cohesiveness to stay to the themes that allow for it to be a space gauntlet entry. Love the Renaissance influences, and the art is super high quality. I think djudjeito's style just is the icing on the cake of this level actually, as it comes off as so original and almost feels like an actual painting at times. Lots of effects such as the parallax at the end also blew me away, the skill required to execute all of the ideas here is insane.
Yellow usually isn't a pretty color either and djudjeito's outlines just look so incredible despite that. This also level knows how to combine multiple colors on the screen at once without it seeming overwhelming or messy.
Gameplay is slow and maybe the length makes it a little boring to some, but to me it feels like a dreamy journey across the creator's mind. The level is more lenient than it looks in videos, and in reality is a lot easier than the difficulty that it was given which makes it surprisingly sightreadable.
This and Pluto were incredible levels, so I'm highly looking forward to whatever djudjeito makes next. Could be the next big creator depending on what they continue to make, since their style is very unique and I think they're really gaining popularity fast.
probably one of my favorite 2.2 levels. this level uses all of the 2.2 features incredibly and it has absolutely stunning decoration throughout the entire thing. however, the gameplay is pretty bad, but its mostly because of this one spike that you can barely see against the background, so its not too bad.
my honest opinion about this levels space gauntlet placement is that it shouldnt have even been a space gauntlet entry at all. i feel like gauntlet levels should be more gameplay based than decoration based, because those are the levels people are actually going to play, so people won't get mad when the gauntlet is full of extremely aggravating levels that people don't like solely because of the gameplay. overall, rob should have mythic rated this but not put it in the gauntlet.
i kinda got off topic there. good level !
I would be whining my ass out because it got 7th place but RobTop understands where the heat is at and gave this mythic. The deco style is peak, it's done perfectly with no flaws whatsoever. It deviates so far from the rest of the SGCC entries, even the mythics which I would argue each at a distinct theme. People complain about the GP but it fits perfectly, I mean absolutely perfectly, with the level. The song representation is immaculate. I always liked djudjeito for Pluto and even Folie, but this level made them one of my favorite creators. GP wise it's not as strong as everything else, but the only real issue (that being the dash orb during the slow cube not being visible until you hit it) got fixed so the GP is fine. This isn't my winners choice (I will be crucified if I reveal my winner's choice) but yeah definitely should have won 2nd place in the SGCC
I am shocked, and without words.
This is for me, the best level in the 2.2 for now, the decoration, the aura, and the arts bro, are very detail and incredibly good
Sadly this wasn't in the top 5 in the Space Gauntlet Results, but i'm happy that this got mythic, it deserves it.
If we talk about bad things about the level, yeah, sometimes the gameplay can be a little bit boring or 'strange' but in my opinion is good, but the swing part with orbs was incredibly strange and for me not the best if we talk about gameplay, very confusing and strange.
But is a perfect level for me, have everything that i love in a level and deserves more than the 7th place, sad, but happy that got mythic.
Thanks Djudjeito ♡
this level is GORGEOUS, I love its atmosphere
visualizes the music very well, but sadly gameplay is not its strong suit
