The first half of this level before the title drop is literally perfect. No notes there- it’s really menacing, the colorwork is on point, and it’s able to reach this middle ground between core and regular design that I love to bits. That being said, Loogiah kind of fumbles the second half here, and Pennutoh’s part feels way too different from the rest of the level, down to the gameplay, which really throws the whole thing off kilter. Still, this is awesome work, and I feel like the first half is enough to carry it.

One of the best levels of this difficulty. The use of white space here is diabolically clean; combined with this "organic" style of core decoration, it feels very strange and alien in a good way.

I kind of wish there was a bit more to it though- the drop is a bit of a letdown, and I feel like it ends a bit too early. I get that slow gameplay is a "core" part of core, as to not sacrifice the clarity of the decoration, but it just feels so weird playing through the hype part of Chaoz Airflow but at 0.5x speed. It feels a bit icky.

Really intense and vibrant. I usually dislike Twister’s style but I think it works really good here, where theres contrast between the background/foreground and Twister’s designs pop out a lot more. Fantastic work.
