I don't see it guys. There's not much of anything for me to chew on here. I guess the clash between the level title and level itself is nice I guess.
Makes me pretty sad to see that the community attitude towards this level has hardly changed over the past 4 years, even in a space like this that has a least some sort of critical gaze. I guess that neutral-positive is better than neutral-negative, but I've always felt this level was really brilliant and one of the very few instances where something truly new captured the wider attention of the playerbase. As time as moved on, my favorite part of this level has honestly become the opening cube, from the ebbing of dim lights, vertical rise and fall, and admittedly, influence on my own ideas about what makes a good level (if you're curious, maybe you'll notice a throughline of discussion of structuring in many of my reviews). Basically, I like it a lot, and I don't think there needs to be much more to it.
