[@iMintyGreen]

Sure Dark Odyssey is much more polished and the “better” level, and definitely shows how far Jonathan has come, but there’s just a certain charm to Dark Travel that it will never be able to have and Dark Travel was so much of a proportionally better level for when it was released

[@50Steaks68]

Idk it served its purpose well

[@josenb1479]

Dark travel es mas facil pero menos decoración y pues dark odyssey es mas dificil pero es mas bonito

[@glegle1016]

true 3:10 for example, dark travel is better. first of all the player goes up. so there is a sense of depth. dark odyssey it just felt cramped. also dark odyssey is a lot more balanced but i liked how dark travel had difficult parts and easy parts where u can relax on. dark travel felt so much more natural, especially 2:53

[@party11440]

I feel like Dark Odyssey is more fun to play and more polished, but Dark Travel has more variety in the backgrounds and feels bigger.

[@diegislac5116]

Literal answer is to have the parts be in different sections of the level and move them in when their time comes

[@Gijtrr]

Lot of blending, triggers, and talent

[@cartern5791]

Blending+Alpha+Glow+40 different groups+move, I kid you not look at this in the editor, that's how he did it, there's also a subtle pulse that affects each one of them in their different groups and when they get moved in the pulse bugs and creates a kind of super blend as the object exits the pulse range, which is why they are so realistic looking. I tried recreating this, it didn't work.

you've gotta admit, it got polished really well It keeps the essence of the older one while keeping a fresh experience, it also catches the music's atmosphere much cleaner

[@scozi1530]

You have to be super talented to fit so much emotion into a level, and the visuals made it clear that Johnathan put so much heart and effort into his level, and that's what's so beautiful about these levels, the love, care, and creativity put into these levels, and this part at 4:44 just makes me feel so happy. It's like there's a big story going on, and the 4:44 - 5:05 , 3:05 , and 3:20 - 4:07 feel like a ray of hope, and from the beginning happy tunes, to the soft somber ending, brings me on an emotional rollercoaster, and it's just so beautiful, these levels will always be my favorites.

@CosmicDuckHD that's why I like 3:04 better tho. I really like all the stuff going on in the background. In Odyssey. There is a lot less. It is much less present in 4:45 but still noticable.

[@arathyaa]

I prefer dark odyssey cuz the light is smoothier (sorry if i wrote it bad) than the original

[@redhatpat]

​@@bigshaqexegaming5748 I actually think both are amazing for different reasons, but the reasons make them equal in my eyes. 3:04 to 3:25 In Dark Travel the level is very open, comforting and dreamlike. Dreamcatchers are strung about as you head toward a very prominent light that as it transitions into the next section, disappears and then explodes into a beautiful cascading light. Dark Odyssey on the other hand is more subdued with its light. You travel along a golden pathway as rain falls down and the lamposts you pass light your way, like you're taking a calming, relaxing walk through the street in the rain. It feels real, not dreary despite its scenery. Personally if I had to force myself to choose, I'd pick Dark Odyssey's rendition over Dark Travel. It feels more in line with the music, and its transition into the next section of the level is better in my opinion, Idk why I typed this long message, I love this level too much.

Uhhhh to me dark travel have much more original decoration than Odyssey while Odyssey is a bit too much details, flashes and disturbing screen overlays but the effects(4:39) and gameplay is a lot more creative and better. Even so, the movement of the character looks odd sometimes because of inconsitant speed in movements. For example, the gameplay in 5:06 uses too much black orbs and slopes which create very quick motions where as the music is chilling. After all, you can still see the enormous effort that Jonathan put into the level and I really appreciate that. Keep going Jonathan ❤
