Undoubtedly the most unfairly hated level on Hyperbolus - here’s why.

I truly believe this is the most undeservedly hated level on this website period. I think a large part of that comes from it being easy to hate because the only people who will defend it know 5 words and 2 of them are "skibidi" and "toilet".

Outside of the memability, and the expected bandwagon hate, you're left with a level that’s genuinely, not that bad.

too kiD frIEndly is a Peaceful inspired XL level by ExtoPlasm. It was clearly made by an inexperienced creator and shares a lot of aesthetic similarities with kid-related YouTube culture and as a result, did very well on YouTube, however, this paints a target on its back for unfair analysis.

Separate from YouTube and evaluated purely as a level - it’s far from the dumpster fire some people treat it as. It reminds me a lot of Nantendo: unpolished - yet a clear and finished idea; unremarkable gameplay - yet largely satisfying and pleasant for an XL level. The main thing this level has going for it is the overall experience with the gameplay. The song representation in decoration and gameplay intensity is actually well-executed and effective. I did genuinely enjoy playing it

However, I won't overlook its flaws.
Again compared to Nantendo, a lot of this level is cutscene-heavy and that can get annoying if you die far. The "characters" are very placeholder-y and don't hold any distinct or unique design between them. A lot of the story elements ExtoPlasm was trying to place were lost and a lot of the level can feel "XD random" rather than telling any narrative of any sort but I understand why the song structure might limit that.

A lot of the level's decoration feels very "good enough time to move on" and I think even though this is an obvious choice it leaves a lot to be desired and makes a lot of the level seem cheap, unfinished and rushed even if it's just because of the creator's inexperience. What is made is serviceable by all means and is good enough to communicate the ideas and aesthetical importance.

Is this an incredible, must-play masterpiece? No.
Is it the abomination some of the community make it out to be? Not in the slightest.

By itself, it’s a decently fun, occasionally enjoyable level that kids on YouTube enjoy. And honestly? Let them have it. The exaggerated hate displayed on the sight says more about general dogpiling culture than the actual level itself.
