Rating Curve

This sucks man, even if the level itself is just overall kinda whatever, the stupid ass name drags it so much down. I really hate these levels that just take meme names and then don't do anything with said meme name.

I've mostly mellowed out on this level. I used to view this level as a "message to creators", which, if you've played the level, you can see that its a very toxic and troubling message. If you haven't, I think of the message as being something like:

"You shouldn't create, because what you create will never be good enough. You won't get the attention you deserve, people will hate on your work. When I create levels, I want to heal and inspire people. But I feel as if I can never do that".

TMNGaming puts so much emphasis on wanting to "inspire people" as his main driving force for creating, and I think that's precisely why he feels so miserable throughout this level. That is also why upon initial playthrough, I vehemently disliked this level's existence because it felt like it was sending a very pessimistic message to creators and artists. Looking back, I think of two things.

1). I really vibe with this more as TMNGaming's mental time capsule. Maybe he did want to influence people with this level, but I think retroactively, and with the passage of time, it serves as a really cool glimpse into the intermediary period of an artist's thought process.

2). The GD community actually didn't understand the message of this level at all and thought it was just "creators work so hard for us, we need to treat creators better". So I guess it was all fine in the end.

I don't really know if I still like this level much, just cuz I disagree so much with the viewpoint. But I can respect its existence. Oh yeah, also the gameplay kinda sucks haha.

go crazy ber zer ker ! ! !
very funny level but kinda like watching a Transformers movie

I actually liked the pixel parts.

I love how earnest and joyful this level feels. I have no clue how people could find this level "corporate" or "soulless", it does so many insane things that I think no true soulless manufactured level would ever have the courage to do. Corporate levels stay safe. They pull all the safe, tried-and-true bells and whistles. This level doesn't do that. How many levels abruptly stop everything to deliver an evil monologue, only to have that monologue interrupted by an orange buff cube guy who helps you up to an escape pod??!?!

And maybe this is just me, but this plays unbelievably well. With so much shit happening on-screen, I have no idea how I was able to get through it all in like 1 attempt. I can tell this is a super polarizing level by looking at the reviews here, but I can't deny I love this level. It's like the GD equivalent of "Who Killed Captain Alex" or "Megan" if "Megan" was good.

overhated by the wider community but still not really that good. Its wave, its lava, it is hard level. Grrr hard level. Exreme demon.
