If I had to describe this level in one word, it would be aura. I can't lie, this level have an insane atmosphere that builds since the first second, its really easy and plays so well, Yakimaru is a good creator, they had made levels before and had popular parts in megacollabs but nobody has really talked enough about translucent, the essence this level making it an experience to play, it's crazy how hard it goes, the designs may look simple but they get along the level so well, like the air deco, that is there but doesn't oversature the atmosphere, and the coin routes just proves that the level was well-thought at the time of making it, showing that it's not necessary to have the most ambitious level ever to be good. I see Transluscent as an example of how you can use your skills to make something enjoyable over memorable, because the level was made to be good, not to be the most popular level ever, this can also be noticed by the dificult, since the easiest way to have a popular level is to make either an easy demon or an extreme demon, but Yakimaru decided to make it a hard demon, showing how they prioritize having fun and making a fun level over an ambitous attention seeking level. I like to thing that Translucent is that artist that everyone knows it's out there but nobody gives a look at it.

Motheye's vision for making a level with this song is really impressive, he managed to make designs and ambiented so well each part that you feel you're there, each part mixes the energy of the song, like an anime opening, he was really on point with the details and the transitions of the colors and scenes. When the drop hits, the preparation, the effects, the gameplay, builds an atmosphere with perfect synergy between the gameplay and the visuals, making it reach 2 differents people: for those who enjoy watching levels and those who enjoy playing levels. Kingslayer is one of my favorite extreme demons because the chills it gives you while playing it are unmatched, if I had to describe this level i would say its a really fun and enjoyable level, it's awesome to watch and to play, and feels cool once you beat because it's an extreme demon without the torture of being an extreme demon. Recomended.
