R3XX3R has been one of my favorite creators for a while now. He has been building since 1.9 and only recently has he become one of the most talented creators in the game. I have known about him since he was building Melodic Travel, and it is amazing that he has continued to grow as a creator for this long. After a few lengthy breaks he came back to the creating scene and released some fantastic levels, one of these being Burn. R3XX3R genuinely impressed a lot of people with his attempt at a 1.9 style level themed around fire and heat.

With that being said, Burn has fantastic decoration and theming. R3XX3R used many objects from 1.9 and older to create very unique designs. Although he restricted himself to older blocks, he complemented these designs with beautiful pulses and newer features such as movements and layering. Burn is filled to the brim with all of these aspects, showing R3XX3R’s monumental amount of talent in the editor. On top of all this, he tied the level together with a classy theme. Being a level of heat and fire, Burn features many industrial themed designs complemented with lots of orange color and individual fire assets. The excellent fire assets and tasteful usage of orange gives the level a plethora of personality and cements this level as one of R3XX3R’s best levels.

As for the gameplay, it is just as terrific as the decoration. R3XX3R intended for Burn to be rated Easy Demon. However, the gameplay is not too challenging, and as a result of this it was rated nine stars. The gameplay being not that challenging can be good though, as more people can enjoy this masterpiece. R3XX3R made many unique gameplay choices that cannot be found in non-demons made in the same era, making for some very fun and enjoyable gameplay.

Overall, Burn is truly one of R3XX3R’s best levels. He was not afraid to show his talent in the editor and it made for an excellent level. Burn is without a doubt one of my favorite levels of his, and it makes me incredibly excited to see what he makes next.
