Really creative gameplay and strong progression, although this is a level that I have a hard time taking seriously despite its attempts to establish the feeling of gravitas throughout- stuff like the news bulletin and the silhouetted eyeball alien people are really goofy and take me out of it. I feel like if it were more abstract it probably would've won me over a lot more.
BEST NON-NONG SONG USED IN A LEVEL AND ITS PEAK
Genuinely one of my favorite levels of 2.2 so far. The atmosphere is absolutely impeccable, it really reminds me of Storm by Skywalker14 with the way it approaches its themes and buildup (even including a Godspeed You! Black Emperor reference at 70%, this level really reminds me of their work).
Everything feels desolate and bleak, the mysterious beings serving as the contrast, as they seem to bring light wherever they go, whether that means salvation or destruction is up to interpretation, but it seems to imply that they have a role in some sort of apocalyptic scenario.
It’s such a beautiful level that I really wanna go into more detail with eventually, but with all I can come up with for now, it’s easily my level of the year so far.
very nice progression and atmosphere, but unfortunately this level falls under the same category as commatose for me in the sense that everyone loves it and thinks it's like One of The Best Levels In The Game but i just cannot see it. Also not a huge fan of the song choice
