A small amount of cool stuff going on here but overall noticeably weak
raw to the point where i unironically like it
This level perfectly fits the criteria of "raw", gimmicky and unique early 2.0 gameplay and decoration style make for a very epic level. I particularly appreciate the way boss fights are utilised in this level, the dual in particular is very awesome. A lot of the parts arent particularly cohesive and the level is stereotypically "bad" due to its lack of readbaility, which like thinking space makes it unique and gives the level a nice charm. This combines with the dubstep song creates a nostalgic level, you can tell the creator loved using the newly added move triggers, and it makes the level feel like its trying to kill the player on purpose, the moving structures give the level a sense of sentience. The level in spots lacks cohesivness and some parts dont fit in the level really at all, but some parts like the drop robot are super awesome, utilising veritcality in a way most levels do not. Very cool level, but evidently flawed in many aspects.
One of my favorite levels of all time that is almost entirely carried by the drop gameplay
Visually isn't anything interesting, some parts are disjointed and movement triggers break any sense of cohesion by splitting objects in half.
The gameplay isn't notable at all until the drop, nor 66%+, but the drop gameplay is such a marvel I cant help but appreciate the level as a whole.
The robot gameplay is extremely satisfying, utilizing verticality and structuring in a way that I just don't see anywhere else creating intensity in a unique way. Immediately following is the best part of the level with maybe my favorite dual of all time that is so satisfying to pull off and matches with the music change almost flawlessly, maintaining the intensity that the drop set up perfectly. The best praise I can give to the rest of the gameplay is that it manages to lower intensity gradually, but isn't nearly as interesting as the previous parts.
5/10
