How does anyone think this gameplay is redeemable at all? either criminally boring (Super-slowed-down swingcopter sections appear to be a recurring theme in this gauntlet's offerings) or manically unreadable - in the case of the wave-gimmick-like park, literally indecipherable on a first playthrough.

Decoration is equally gaudy and over-the-top. Feels like it could one-shot a Victorian child. I actually disagree with PAHC and think the emulation sections is the only positive quality here - it's fun and meta in a novel way, I think.

This placing in the contest at all will be a signifier of the Path of Shit that the game is, for some reason, choosing to follow

No idea why people throwing shade at this - this is fantastic

I really really want to like this level and it has extremely high peaks, but there are just so many questionable decisions that really dampen my experience. The obnoxious sfx playing makes the experience feel weird, and the weird gimmicky wave part at 45% with the player color star is very unclear for a level of this difficulty. Worst part by far is the extremely dissatisfying ending having the song abruptly get cut off.

There are so many things I love about this level and the emulation part is genuinely amazing, but it's just very hard to focus on all of that with how many level ruining glaring issues there are.

the emulation section is likely the worst part submitted to the gauntlet contest. jesussss
