this map is one of them…

Ashirene told me to give it a 10 so I will

*rant review - will probably go on some tangents & this is not good

I DESPISE THIS GOD DAMN EXCUSE FOR A LEVEL. It’s got every hallmark of a piece of shit level. Way too hard gameplay? Check! Bullshit Gameplay? Check! Random 2.1 update that only makes things worse? Check!! Random decoration with nothingness everywhere? Check! Every single overused 1.9 trope? Check! Inconsistent duals that don’t work half the time? Check!! Random invisible shit? DING DING DING WE HAVE A WINNER ITS NOT ME BECAUSE IVE PLAYED THIS!!!!!

This piece of garbage was designed from the depths of satan’s bowels And that’s the nicest thing I could say for that comparison because I originally was going to use human trafficking as my comparison but I thought that was a little harsh but it’s not that far off from being human trafficking level bad

Every single ounce of this gameplay was designed as a human torture chamber. This first part throws some easy memory at you, but as far as I’m concerned it’s just more evil ways for you to waste your time by getting to the drop of this song every time. It’s genuinely not a bad first part even with the terrible usage of speed changes and awkward “memory” bits because to be quite honest it’s not even memory. And I would be fine if it looked good but it just doesn’t, it just feels like every 1.9 darnoc level and that just makes things even worse than the gameplay.

BUT THEN OUT OF NOWHERE THE LEVEL GETS WORSE

The memory ship isn’t too bad, even if it is annoying with hitboxes and also looks like shit and also isn’t fun and and and and and… it’s at least consistent sometimes.

And by this part, sure it isn’t that bad, it’s not a good 1.9 level but it’s not awful. And then, we have

THE WAVE

THE GOD DAMN WAVE

WHY DID THIS HAVE TO EXIST

WHO DECIDED UPON THIS

let me set the stage

You’re playing a pretty bad level, yeah it sucks but it’s okay. WHEN OUT OF NOWHERE THE WORST NINE CIRCLES PART EVER MADE SPAWNS IN. It’s an overused effect and it’s not good at all, definitely not, but at least the structures are sometimes visible. Every Nine Circles level gave you that. NOT THIS LEVEL. GOOD LUCK PLAYING THE PART BECAUSE YOU CANT SEE THE STRUCTURES. NOT ONE BIT BECAUSE THERES NOT AN OUNCE OF DIFFERENTIATION AT ALL. WHY. and you know honestly it does kind of get consistent once you deal with the fact that it sucks and it’s made with the intent of malice and it’s the worst thing imaginable and you have to do invisible memory while your retinas slowly disintegrate from having to look at a nine circles part. and of course it never gets passably consistent because who needs that it’s not like the next part is worse hahahahgahahahahahagahagagagagahhahahahahaahhahahajahajahahajhaha

now you might not believe me when I say this. but we haven’t gotten through the worst. ITS INCONSISTENT DUAL TIME BABYYYYYYYY WOOOOOOOOO IM GOING TO DIE IN GAME BECAUSE THIS PART DOESNT WORK!!!!!!! BASICALLY EVER. I don’t know if something is wrong on my end but this part is impossible. 90% of the time you do the first clicks right and they don’t work and then sometimes they do but oops the ship / cube & ship / ball parts exist and those are also terribly inconsistent and yeah this part was also made with the pure intent of malice behind it, and that’s this level in a nutshell. malicious intent

The last 15% isn’t good but it’s nothing compared to the hell we’ve passed through (except for the fact that the final ball is insane demon difficulty but I’m glossing over that because I’m not going there right now because calm ashirene is here for the next 5 minutes before I write the ending to my this and lose my shit again thinking about this god damn level)

Overall 0/10, probably less if I could give it that. I would rather amputate my own leg without anesthetic than play this again. I would rather get a life sentence in prison. I would rather suffer the same fate as those who got wrongfully executed for crimes they didn’t commit than play this again. I would rather be burned at the stake like it’s the god damn Salem Witch Trials all over again. I would rather sit through every minute of watching paint dry, then paint another layer and watch it again for the rest of eternity. I would rather burn in hell. I would rather try to beat slaughterhouse with my teeth. I would rather try to beat a polar bear in a wrestling match. I don’t like this level. It was made for torture, it’s probably better than prison for that.

thanks for reading if you did get through this monstrosity, be sure to like and give +1 reputation to like OnlyTrying or something I don’t know anymore.
