Rating Curve

Kinda shrunk on me

really really gorgeous visuals dragged down by the really really weird and janky gameplay on the drop sections. ill consider changing the score once i get my hands on this again but the visuals are the sole reason why this level still holds up very well despite the gameplay issues

mindcap is just goated bro

this "review" sent this level to #1 rated lmao. i still really love this level and will write a review on it once it gets released

of course iconic, and a very good level that introduces the player to the basics of the game effectively

love the twenty one pilots rep!!!! the old visual styles really fit the narrative of stressed out, it really feels like returning to the good old days when geometry dash levels used to look simple, and the designs are really well done too

though, as much as i love twenty one pilots, the hits on blurryface (imo their worst album, still has some cool tracks i visit once in a while) really dont appeal to me, so that drags the score down because i just think stressed out is a mid song. when do we get levels from trench or clancy? those are my personal favorite albums from the band and i would love to see a gd level using a song from either album (ive seen one level use midwest indigo as the song though, and it was a pretty solid level too). overall a cool level

while the visuals are nice for sure, the gameplay aspect of this is at the forefront. this was an absolutely fun hard demon i beat last year and a pretty easy one too (although its arguable that it could be a little bit on the medium demon range). would recommend but some timings are pretty devious so be careful lol. windglass in general is just an amazing song too, and i think that elevates my experience with the level

not big on this one

the most underrated entry out of this contest. the camera movements in some parts and the way the ending was played out felt weird though, but those are only my main gripes towards the level. i really wished this and planispheres placed at least

i cant lie that final part is fantastic. i love the burst of colors on the designs as the song becomes more intense. makes for a fantastic ending. still dont know if lucy or this one is a better level
