It's a great homage to the GD community, but I don't know if I'd say it's a great level. For a level over two and a half minutes long, it doesn't really feel like it's got a lot going on in terms of progression. Half of it is literally just going through the city, and there aren't any real meaningful changes in atmosphere. It just feels really samey. The second half at least is a little better, with the player actually going inside a couple buildings. The gameplay isn't all that remarkable, either; it's pretty basic throughout, and apart from that one part where you get launched up by the manhole covers, I wouldn't really say it does anything interesting. If it weren't for all the easter eggs in the deco, it'd be a rather boring level to actually play.
I do need to give the references/easter eggs a proper mention in this review, as they're pretty much the only real redeeming quality this level has. It's cool being able to look at the level and pretty much always be able to see a reference to something or someone important to the GD community, and it makes the long, boring first half a little more bearable; for that, I'll give it a higher visuals rating than I otherwise would. It kinda gives the impression, though, that this level was meant more to be watched than to be played.
