0:19 how is gameplay part of a style?? Styles are grounded in decoration.

[@PeluchPlay]

And the Nine Circles? Aren't a style?

[@lukecarroll19]

@@PeluchPlay It is a style, but just because Nine Circles levels tend to follow a strict layout, doesn't mean the style can't be applied universally. For example, Decode is a well known 1.9 level, and Acu is a well known modern level. And yet, people have recreated Acu with Decode decoration (see "Acu, but styled like decode" by Alk1m123). Styles are purely aesthetic; some gameplay might have correlation to levels that employ said styles, but GD styles are not defined by gameplay.

[@PeluchPlay]

@@lukecarroll19 I Know, My commemt was ironic lol

[@constellar6330]

this is a dumb asf comment in reality have you heard of gameplay styles? or maybe that one's style has specific deco AND gameplay? and levels are determined as deco + / gameplay (deco is optional here cuz we layouters exist). take for example the mentioned core style. a lot of levels (NOT ALL) share a similar gameplay template, with most frequent gamemode being ship or any other flying gamemode, because the immersion of the decorative style is most prominent and visible in those modes.

[@constellar6330]

(since youtube refused to put my comment so im doing this shit again:) this is a terribly ignorant comment. gameplay is a core part of ANY style, no matter how much your eyes might seem to tell you otherwise. take examples: 1.0 style. how you gonna make 1.0 without gameplay? Jax is that you? can we get the Auto Play Area sequel? core style in theory, gameplay for core is ideally to be slower and feature more flying gamemodes to fully immerse the player into the style itself. (core + 4x speed is an HD vomit) nine circles already mentioned by the person before me, without gameplay style it wouldnt exist (a breath of fresh air lol) realistic style from what i have seen so far, gameplay tends to be more open and flowy to accomodate the deco aspect of the style. i am not mad or anything, but i advise you to think for a minute or two before commenting. thanks for reading!

[@lukecarroll19]

5:03 "any CherryTeam level" this is just blasphemy. CherryTeam has a wide variety of styles displayed throughout their projects. Most of which should probably fall into your experimental category. Just check out their work with Peach Vomit.

[@rallicat69]

if you look at most of their big projects (aka extremes) it's 90% just glow glow glow, you took like the only exception.

6:10 damn my own part jumpscared me lol Pretty good video but I'd make some corrections: - Astralith is most certainly part of the "art" category you put here. Made by most of the same creators of Next Cab Soon btw. Astralith is much closer to the art levels than something like And Ever (you can see this by the level of detail and the texturing). - The separation between tech and art doesn't seem all defined here. Xender boss levels share so many similarities to White Space, but you put them in different categories. Although to be honest, I feel like a lot of these levels kind of just transcend their own categories anyways. - I'd put levels like HOW and WHAT closer to effect, maybe experimental effect is a good way to put it. - Honestly, I'd cut "simple" modern style some slack. The time it takes to make doesn't necessarily equate to the level of quality. There are some really good simple modern levels too, like Qubb's catalogue, Lyeo, optical's levels. But I understand this is just more of a preference. - No elaboration on minigames? 🥺

[@Aimbotter2123]

I think you need to make a distinction between decoration style and level style. I noticed how you included categories such as "art" and "realism" which applies solely to decoration whereas categories such as "minigame" and "nine circles" can exist as essentially any decoration style.

[@davidci]

Ironically, realistic style is definitely E tier for me, despite most people loving that style. I'm the kind of guy that prefers gameplay more than decoration, and though realistic styles are impressive, their lack of readability and usually boring gameplay just brings it down so so much for me.

[@professor5558]

I like how he mentioned "and ever" but didn't mention how optimised it is compared to other realistic levels

[@Kiirannell808]

I feel like space deco is sort of like tech, but a bit different focusing on planets and stars, almost enough to be its own category.

[@Aiden_and_Co]

commatose is neodesign (the best style the you literally placed nowhere here). neodesign are things like infinity, commatose, and well rested

[@SMangoGD]

This actually might be a very good point I would say most neodesign levels are like about C tier but there are some extremely amazing bangers in neodesign I prolly shouldve put neodesign somewhere on here, its pretty big

Poocubed is a cute modern level tho Nine Circles levels are the best levels ever and they make the wave very fun. Also playing wave based levels like NC levels allowed me to progress in the game very quickly (since October last year) and now my hardest is Aquatic Auroras. How ever even tho I wanna move on to Rigel and Cosmic Cyclone I am too bored by the game to play them so the last time I played a NC extreme was in January Also please do more ratings!!!

[@GDgalaxy-gdg]

5 years later...

[@Bob_Greasy_The_3rd]

3d line art (or 2003devin style) is for me always gonna be the best style of deco. You can basically treat the game like a pencil and paper and do whatever the fuck you want to. Normal art levels are also great as hell, but there is already ALOT of them. I feel like 3d line art style needs to be used more, like in my favorite level "Strange relationships", most of it is normal art, but the parts with 3d line art are genuienly fucking perfect.

[@therealmagmalord3479]

For most of them, i think how they are done is really important, for example i really like rust but not most levels of the same style. Its not even just about plain quality either its about how the level feels visually, which isnt too consistent within different styles

[@SMangoGD]

True

[@Zekromian]

I highly agree abt tech being represented to little, would be great to have more of em

[@minye-]

The "Core" style is about its visual weight. it seems very heavy and creates an effect of severity. Good "Core" part is part by Lilium from Firework(1st part in level)

You made modern designs so simple and everything u said I have like no idea how to do that’s how bad I am at level creating 😭🙏 also I love these rankings and this sounds like an impossible mission a person who attempted to make a modern level and failed miserably me xD is going to attempt to make a level called “Unbalanced” basically it will have every style excluding the honarable mention ones and will put them all in one level with basically the same gameplay they usually have and the same styles some like realistic will be near impossible for me but hey it’s amazing the things you can do if you just try

[@Vernosis]

Actually really impressive how you made a tier list video this entertaining really good job

[@snipeshotgames]

1.0 style is high B tier imo, it can show a lot of expression and its always cool to see what people could do if they had more unique gameplay aspects (more orbs, more gamemodes, move triggers, etc) back then. i also love xo and every end.

[@Its_Astolfo]

YES. Completely agree with your take on Modern levels, I cannot stand them. It's literally just the same copy pasted level over and over again. It feels factory mass produced and made to appeal to the general population, because that's exactly what it is. It's like the Drake and Taylor Swift of GD levels. All the movements feel the same in every single one of them and feel just as lifeless, there's usually hardly any design, it's just solid colors (and maybe if you're lucky, it'll have just a tiny bit of design, wow!!), even the colors feel the same in each one of them, and don't even get me STARTED on the abysmal custom portals and orbs and pads, goddamn. People say they look "clean" but to me, clean just means factory produced samey-old soulless level design, and that's exactly how I feel about modern levels. No soul put in them, no thought put to them, no personality in them, just made to become famous and popular. Change my mind.
