disclaimer: I go into this review mostly talking about this level as if it was one of Zylenox' levels, because they made all of the deco. I get that Trusta made the gp, verified and uploaded but I tend to value decoration over gameplay when I'm reviewing these levels.
This level lies on the better half of Zylenox' levels, its probably their most well rounded level all things considered. It has really solid progression, intensity, designs, colour usage and stand out parts but other than progression and structures you couldn't really say it's the best Zylenox has to offer which might be why it's gone under the radar in comparison to their other levels which is a shame because Berserk is a really really good level.
Berserk is the last of Zylenox' 5 factory themed levels and I guess they realised that making another red and blood gory factory level wasn't going to cut it so they decided to go for some more interesting themes which ended up paying off because it ended up giving way to a lot of new great unique parts.
One thing this level does insanely well especially in comparison to Zys other stuff is the structuring and I'm not sure if its Trusta or Zy who's to thank for this but the structures have a lot more interesting form with the shapes they're made up of and more importantly this level makes use of a lot of massive structures which take up a lot of the screen and in conjunction with the occasional camera swoop make the level feel huge in scale when it needs to be which helps with the industrial factory theme a lot.
One part that specifically has stand out structuring is the last part because it's got some of Zys most insane structuring ideas and it works so well with the player movement but its so riddled with visual errors it actually makes me a bit sad. It's still one of my favourite parts despite that though.
Another thing that's done really well in this level is intensity where the level keeps up with the song decently well up until the second drop where it just hits you with the lightning part which is not only a super unique theme to pull off but is probably the best high intensity Zylenox part behind the Triple Six drop.
Even after the lightning part the intensity is kept up decently well until the end but feels more like its cooling off but this as well as the sheer contrast between the lightning part and everything else is more of a example of great progression. That on top of the gorgeous colour schemes each part uses in this level makes it in my opinion the best progression seen in any Zylenox level
