Rating Curve

Overall I think that this is better than moment in the deco, and on par with moment in gameplay. It's really unfortunate that this isn't rated because this is some of the most fun I've ever had playing a level. Overall really satisfying.

Sunset Sandstorm is my favorite level in Geometry Dash. The way I interpret it, you ascend a staircase, getting closer and closer towards the sun, almost like a hike up a giant sand dune. As you get closer, the level gets more and more red, showing the increase in heat as you climb. Finally, you reach the top, seeing the sight of a beautiful sunset overtaking the whole landscape. I have no clue if this is what Crohn was going for in the level, but I have yet to see another level that has invoked a feeling of determination within me. Speaking of determination, a lot of that is required to beat this level, but while this is the case, it is also the most fun I have ever had playing a level. The first half is incredibly difficult, while also being decently consistent the further along you get, while the second half is essentially a "don't throw" challenge, as it is significantly easier, while also incredibly easy to die to due to nerves. Alongside all of this, the song representation is on point, as every aspect of this level truly feels like being stranded in the desert, and Cero's Outlaw does a great job at adding to that atmosphere. Overall, I think Sunset Sandstorm is fantastic piece of art, and as a level, is a very enjoyable experience.
