It's no accident that "Tokyo Rush" is a level that became so iconic upon its release. "Tokyo Rush" is a level that simply pulsates with life; it's incredibly colorful, dynamic and perfectly imitates the thrilling sensation of 'rushing' through a metropolis like Tokyo in the middle of the night, being subjected to all the dazzling neon signs and lights that decorate and adorn the streets surrounding you. Aside from being a visually pleasing and lively level, "Tokyo Rush" is just an extremely fun level to play through. Most 1.9 harder levels have pretty questionable gameplay so it's refreshing to play through a 1.9 level with amazing gameplay as well as balancing that still holds up to this day. I think that "Tokyo Rush" perfectly embodies the liberated, free-spirited nature of 'Pneumatic Tokyo'. There's just something special about the 'rush' you get as you dash off into night and everything around you just turns into a messy, multi-colored blur.

"Tokyo Rush" is a pretty iconic 1.9 level all things considered. Its influence can't really be denied when you see how many remakes it spawned. Kips' second uploaded level is literally a remake of "Tokyo Rush". Not only that, but Kips literally worked on another remake of "Tokyo Rush" back in 2018 with another creator, ItsRusto. Usermatt18 was responsible for releasing "Tokyo Dash". Ferdefunky released "Osaka Rush". Nasgubb released "Kyoto Rush". Alkali released "fukuoka rush". So many remakes and reboots have been published, yet I still doubt any of them touch the original "Tokyo Rush" in spite of how solid they may be.
