Rating Curve

Nerfdating a level whose entire legacy was that it was impossible is ridiculous. That said, 2.2 has basically buffdated it, so I’m not too mad about it anymore. The gameplay is obviously terrible and the visuals generally aren’t great, but I still like it.

I suppose it is pretty, and I appreciate the optimization, but being a (nerfed) Stereo Madness remake holds this back a lot for me. It makes sense in the context of the level, as most people who have played the free version quit here, but it leaves little replay value for me. Not much would have been lost if this were an auto.

I normally wouldn’t care to review something like this, but I guess a literal test map can get rated nowadays, so here we are.

What’s here is fine, but I would’ve liked to see the creator come back and expand on this. For some reason, most creators are allergic to updates that aren’t bugfixing or balancing, and this level could really use some more meat on its bones.

Flawed, but I’m not gonna pretend this level killed my dog just because people hold High Life in high regard (myself included).
