The hood classic

I looove this level, this is wu-tang clan 36 chamber but Geometry Dash, the influences of this level are unreal and the update make it better by adding and changing some gameplay to the level, nothing much to say about this level, the gameplay is impossible and I'm too lazy to bot it, so I'll judge it by the video

The reason I am rating this version of Six Paths of Pain, is because, while I understand the reasoning behind the redecoration and other certain changes to the level. I think it ruins the original charm the level had and why I fell in love with it so much. This is the original version of Six Paths of Pain and what I will always see it as.

Six Paths of Pain is my second favorite impossible level of all time, just behind Sakupen End. I've never seen a level so accurately capture the old impossible level feel as this one does. The stupidly impossible wave spams, the edgy text and style, the insanely good song? It has EVERYTHING.

I would go into detail about each part of the level, but I feel like all of my reviews have just been plot summary and I kind of want to stray away from that. I'll instead talk about specific details which I love and what make the level so special to me.

The colors in this level are perfect for what it is trying to achieve. The gray, red, and black do wonders for fitting this old impossible level edgy theming, and the first part feels like a bit of a bait and switch for what the level is going to be. One of my personal favorite parts of this level is actually the text. There isn't a lot of it, but what it says REALLY brings me back.

"Those who can't understand TRUE PAIN, can never understand TRUE PEACE."

"Open your third eye, you won't believe the TRUTH."

Both are said at extremely impactful parts of the level and makes it SO much more memorable. I especially love the 2.0 flowers around "PEACE" in the first quote.

Another thing I love is the abundance of faces/monsters, a lot of them look really goofy but I think that's a good thing! All the scary faces and monsters fit the edgy atmosphere the level gives off!

I can't really talk about this level without mentioning the song though. Nuke Powder is probably the perfect song for a level like this and is probably what makes it so memorable to a lot of people. The song representation is PERFECT in this level, having a couple parts which genuinely feel as dramatic as the song. It's one of those level + song combinations where you can't associate the song with any other level.

While I am sad that the redecoration ruined almost all of this for me, I am still happy that this version still exists and is able to be watched. This level is absolutely amazing and I'm so happy I was able to watch it in my lifetime.
