I don't think making a bad level on purpose makes it good...

it’s too close to what it tries to spoof it ends up being actually bad

Love this level for what it represents about the state of creation in GD, also one of the most hilarious endings I've ever seen

Ending is genuinely hilarious

I think it's funny how this level is parodying the over-the-top and "serious" visuals and very generic theming in Space Gauntlet entries (though Hyperastralis was the only level in the Top 20 with such theming, in my opinion). The decoration is still pretty solid, though, I must say. Still, the gameplay is designed to be as painful to play as possible. Maybe it was designed this way to make fun of how most SGCC entries had gameplay as an afterthought, but this level's gameplay is not fun to play; I hated every second of its blind transitions and awful swing gameplay. This is easily one of MindCap's weaker levels. Though that ending was hilarious. "Yo", truly words of inspiration that make me want to rebel against everything I know.
