an absolute banger of a level from every single standpoint, the designs are simple yet they are unique and fit perfectly with the song, rarely ever you will find a timing based level like this to have actually appealing gameplay to look at but the boxy estructuring really gives it such a personality
So many people mention this level's ~24k object count as if it's some limitation tacked on just to sound impressive, but the elegant simplicity of Congregation's visuals is the largest reason why its slow-burning buildup is so effective - aggressive posturing of the red X boxes and nonchalant moving columns feel so significant when the level intentionally deprives itself of distinction outside of some (awesomely) awkward and misleading click sync. It's a valiant effort to push the limits of stress in GD, even if the actual climax leaves a bit to be desired in its grandiosity. Purgatorii is just such a sprawling, cosmic song that I don't think anyone has fully realized the potential of.
Really creative and revolutionary level, many have tried but no one can recreate the feeling of it.
builds tension like absolutely nothing else. the suspense in the first part lasts just the right amount of time and the release through the cube literally falling through the part into hell is actually fucking terrifying!!! the level being 3 minutes long and only really having two main sections, one of which is brought back for the last part, makes the designs changing a genuine surprise, with the falling transition almost resembling a jumpscare. it's just too good
I was quite scared because this is scary
this is a very scary level
haha funny congregation jumpscare
The area that this level really shines in is its atmosphere. It doesn't tell you outright, but you know that you shouldn't be here. you're alone in this mysterious void, and there's no one coming to help you. I know that this isn't the atmosphere that Presta was going for, but in my eyes, this is what this level is. easy 10/10.
this level is so sick and unique
cool level tbh i like it even tho most people hate it
