Rating Curve

I feel a tiny bit more than nothing for this level. Sorry :(

It's good, but not a sonic wave sequel. In an ideal world, there should've been an actual cosmic cyclone released (maybe somewhat like Ossy or HugoHMF's versions) and then this would be just named Cosmic Cyclone Infinity. Past the name, it's pretty cool! Can't speak on gameplay, I haven't played it all that much.

It's good. Hard to hate or love this level for me, it's just kind of really cool and that's about it.

Oh boy, we've got quite the level on our hands, don't we. It may be an unpopular opinion to say that I think BUSSIN is a good level.

For starters, it's a level that knows exactly what it is. It's a satirical amalgamation of media that most consider to be "brainrot", largely stemming from short form video platforms or social media platforms in general. It utilizes its undeniably hilarious song to its full potential, completely embracing it to form a level that references most of the more popular brainrot memes. The transitions are some of the best I've seen in GD, the art is all absolutely phenomenal, everything moves so fluidly, there's so much to like about this level. The only big thing not to like is that the gameplay is for sure a bit of a weak point. I like how timewarp was used almost to make the level play like an after effects edit, but it does come at the cost of playability a bit. Even then, there is nothing horrible that sticks out.

It's very evident that this level had at least a decent amount of intention to be funny or be created as a joke. In my opinion, the level does quite well in that department. It leaves a lasting impression of the level on the player, whether it's a positive or negative one. I also think that the sheer thought of such a stacked creator line up, composed completely of some of the best creators in the game right now all came together to recreate TikTok memes in GD to the tune of a phonk song is pretty funny.

Many people review a level like this based on the content of the joke and not the execution of the joke and this is where I feel most people aren't doing the right thing. This level's whole joke is making fun of brainrot meme culture by basically shoving it right in your face for a whole minute, all composed into a level with no doubt, tons and tons of effort poured into it.

There's a good chance you don't hate BUSSIN, you hate what it references. By hating these references or even acknowledging these references at all, you've helped BUSSIN accomplish what it set out to. And for that, BUSSIN is a good level.

I hate being the contrarian opinion, especially for such a widely loved level like this.

This level is good. Like insanely good, in fact. It's just not something I would consider one of my favorites (which is what all the >7/10 rated levels on my profile are). In addition to that, the level just isn't memorable for me and I can't even put my finger on a reason why. Could be something to do with the length. I've talked about a general distaste for extremely long levels in previous reviews, but even though this level sits at 10 minutes long, I still feel like it deserves to be that long and is very impactful with it's larger length, so I end up just not knowing why I don't like this level as much as everyone else does.

Don't take this review as any sort of hatred or nitpicking of this level because it truly is one of the best GD levels of all time but when offering my opinion, I have to take unpopular ones into account and this is an unfortunate one. :(

It's innovative, it's fun, it feels open ended but also very linear at the same time which is insane, it's just good geometry dash
