This level is very overrated in my opinion, but I will admit it is still one of the more impressive Late 2.1 easy demons.

First of all, the gimmick of theater mode vs reality mode is amazing and probably the best use of the split mechanic in the Discord Gauntlet contest. That being said, from a grinder perspective there’s really no reason to ever play reality mode so both times I beat this level I used theater mode. This may have reduced my enjoyment a bit. Another issue is that in 2.2 on mobile, I encountered a bug where you always die when you enter the spider after the spam wave unless you buffer click which is not communicated by the level. This may have been fixed so this might be a moot point.

The song choice is amazing and the gameplay goes with it very well. I especially like the ending of this level with the super fast-paced gameplay. Every part is memorable in its own way. It is also impressive how optimized this level is with its low object count.

That being said, I think there are hundreds of late 2.1 levels that are of similar or higher quality. I cannot agree with the “bli glazers” who call this one of the best levels of all time. It’s a great level - just not one of the best of all time. If not for the Discord Gauntlet contest, I think people would have forgotten this level, or at least wouldn’t have praised it so highly.
