Rating Curve

I have absolutely no idea what I’m looking at when playing this level. I can sense that somewhere in this collage of objects that there are some pretty unique and awesome looking designs, but JotaDeX is the definition of overcooked. While I can really appreciate a crazy level with a ton going on, JotaDeX is perhaps the most extreme example I’ve seen of overdecoration to the point where everything blurs together. From the designs to the colors and effects, everything is super bright and chaotic. Due to how challenging it is to make anything out in this level, the gameplay is quite frustrating by nature. It’s surprisingly readable in the first half, but when the drop hits, all sense of readability is completely gone. I truly do admire this creator's dedication to his craft, but this level is simply not for me. Sometimes less is more, and I think that IDegelI might benefit from taking a bit of a step back and adopting this mindset.

TosChee is a new level by electrin, but it feels like it came out 7 years ago. It has gameplay and decoration very reminiscent of the simpler levels rated. Sadly, I think it’s a bit lower quality than your average rated level back then, so paired with the level feeling as outdated as it does, I don’t think TosChee has much to offer. At 66%, the level has some parts that look like Deadlocked and Falling Up, although the execution is a lot more barebones and unpolished, and I feel like they felt weird paired with everything prior. Overall, TosChee is a very outdated looking level with not much to offer that I would have believed was from 7 years ago if I was told so.

Like some of Enfur’s past Extreme Demons, YIPPEE is a rainbow themed Extreme Demon. Outside of having flashy rainbow colors, YIPPEE doesn’t have much to offer with it’s simple designs and backgrounds. The gameplay is the main most, but I find it super straightforward for an Extreme Demon, although fast and requiring super quick inputs. Outside of the elements I just listed, there’s hardly anything else to this level. I found the first part to be my favorite, as it at least has a rainbow parallax on all the blocks which are pretty cool to look at. Unlike some other levels by Enfur, the colors are much more saturated and bring more life into it, but are unfortunately ruined in the later parts by the absurd amount of white animated objects covering most things on screen. Overall, I see YIPPEE as yet another rainbow level by Enfur. I could see it getting rated, as the decoration is decent at times, but I wouldn’t personally vouch for one.
