facade resembles the genre of sunset levels popular in late 1.9 with creators like x8Px, making use of lots of highly detailed, black silhouette art on a simple coloured background. The art mimics a lot of real life, with trees, destroyed buildings and other detritus being a recurring theme throughout, and when combined with the somber song it feels desolate and post-apocalyptic in a way not many other "sunset" type levels did. It's quite a unique atmosphere that immerses the player in this little world that appears to be decaying and falling apart, with debris at odd angles, buildings destroyed and nature everywhere that help further sell this theme to the player. I love this, since it makes the player feel like they've stumbled into some semblance of the world we know, but one that is beyond saving and the player can only watch on.

Unfortunately, this does come at the cost of the gameplay since most of the level being focused on the art neglects any form of traditional gameplay similarly to aforementioned sunset levels of the time period. This removes a huge element tying the player to the level, and in my opinion is something that doesn't work particularly well with this style of level since most of the art is so limited and abstract that it can't properly stand on its own without a more concrete connection to the player in the form of some sort of gameplay. I also wish the starry backgrounds stayed more consistent throughout the level, as well as the dark blue/purple colour scheme changing at odd moments (mostly near the middle with the introduction of green) that somewhat breaks the level's immersion, but regardless, facade is a fascinating level from GMD Condor and one I'd recommend for Star Rate.
