The fact that colon doesn't force himself to have a steady upload schedule is a big deal to me. It means he doesn't do KZbin for views or money like big corporate cash grab channels. He puts honest effort in his videos which shows he actually enjoys making videos which adds a genuine sparkle to his vids. Every time i open KZbin and i see a colon vid, i immediately get excited and stay excited watching the video. Thats why colon is my favorite KZbinr on the platform.

The reason some of the portals were upside down was to hide the particles they emit. If they were the correct way around, you’d be able to see the particles from the main path and realize that there was something there. (This would make these coins 50x more interesting btw, why didn’t Rob do this)

I don’t know why but I always liked the blind fall secret coins it adds an element of “oh wow I cleared this stage but I didn’t see any coins” giving me motivation to replay the level and search for the coin as if it’s a mystery

[@Nartymer]

indeed. It encourages you to try your best to mess with the gameplay's flaws of falling off-path. I still think the Base After Base one is shit, but the one in Can't Let Go where you have to fall between a spike and a platform is a really nice gimmick. Would put it in C tier

[@fefe5237]

half of these coins encourage you to fail the level just to brute force a coin , it's annoying and truly just really boring

[@bedmaxy]

11:35 this had only recently crossed my mind, but maybe the reason that it’s so common for the earlier edited coins to use new mechanics is because they were made with the expectation that players would continue beating levels one after the other, and then go back for the coins. With that logic, it makes more sense why robtop put in un-introduced mechanics for old coins when they weren’t necessary

The first coin in Electroman Adventures is probably my favourite of all the coins, because its hidden well, and the slight hint that it gives you is so simple yet difficult at the same time, and my favourite part about the coin, is when you're jumping up to get the coin, even if you miss the orb, you are still on track as you only get dropped off to the regular path.

Because of the goddamn hitboxes, it is so stupid to get and so unpredictable, the third one is easier than the normal path, so that can't be any good either.

One thing to note about the first coin in Hexagon Force: if you flip just before the pad to get you back on the main path, you actually can go up to the blocks above, while still collecting the coin. (But if you do it too early, you won't collect the coin at all) This alone doesn't change much, but imagine how good this coin would be if it were the only way to get it!

Maybe the hard part is precisely that, stabilizing your ship after the coin (stability that is de facto given to you if you don't go for the coin) rather than the act of taking it.

I'm glad someone agrees with me about the unintroduced aspects worming their way into the pre-Electroman Adventure Levels. What I was thinking is utilizing those secret mechanics so they don't feel like an afterthought. Such as in Poltergeist or Back on Track. That would give them value and foreshadow those mechanics for people who accidentally stumble upon them their first time.

[@luis-sophus-8227]

Poltergeist 💀

[@lumensmith2001]

Coin 1 of dry out at 6:40 is actually a coin I have history with. When I was newer to the game I super buffed a ton of the main levels with an entire focus on hitbox and timing tech. The coin path was so boring and hard to work with I decided to swap the main path and the coin path since you can actually place flattened short-spikes on the singular top platforms and just barely be able to make the jumps from the double platforms if you land on the back edge of the platform. It was so difficult in comparison to the coin path I came up with (and the rest of the level) and the decision to change the two probably ended up making the most interesting coin I've ever added to a level.

8:24 the portals are upside down bc the particles can’t show making it more hidden. It is not a style choice.

[@JoeDan54]

It definitely felt like you noticeably docked lots of points for things like use of unintroduced blue pads and unintroduced portals and blind jumps in every case EXCEPT Polargeist coin 3. I can understand not putting it in F if you enjoyed the tech used to time the input, but putting it as high as B really makes it seem like you're deliberately overranking it due to the anticipated community response.

[@GDColon]

In all honesty I totally forgot about the blue pad being unintroduced, probably because of how small of a role it plays compared to the full coin route. But that's a really good point!

[@damyankorena]

Hey, about the first coin in dry out: you actually can see the jump pad from the normal route making it less random and so you know that a coin exists there and after 3-4 practice attempts it becomes obvious where you need to fall.

Ratings I disagree with: -Base after Base 2nd coin - it falls well under the difficulty category, while it is hidden, I do actually like the recovery, and I absolutely adored it as a newer player as it felt really cool to pull off. C tier from me -Can't let Go 3rd coin - you gave it a lot of hate but honestly it's not too bad it's nice to pull off similarly to the last coin, F tier (or D tier if we are not including the extra one you gave it). -Time Machine 1st coin - no specific reasoning other than I think it deserves slightly higher for how nice it is to do, I give it a B+ tier. -Electroman Adventures 1st coin - I really don't like the blind jump with no indicator of missing it, and while I do see where you're coming from with the idea of misdirection, I don't really like it. It's not all that apparent for first time players of this level and overall just feels like another one of those blind coins. B+ tier for amazing use of breakables. -Clubstep 2nd coin - I give this one an A tier because of the difficulty. With the normal route, you have complete leeway of where you jump, whereas jumping too late in the coin route can actually set you up for a really hard or impossible next click, so lining yourself up is much harder. Love the increased difficulty of invisible spikes in it. -Hexagon Force 1st coin - I just have bias for this coin because I always would get it with that very slight increase in challenge when I played the level some years ago. B tier. -Hexagon Force 3rd coin - D tier because it provides some last second challenge, similarly to the last one in Clubstep. It takes a huge toll though because of how generic it is (as you mentioned) and the blocks have poor hitboxes. -TOE 2 1st coin - I hate the mini blocks, like you said it is very hard to understand what's going on, but it's very disorienting for me to this day (my 2 hardest levels are insane demons so an easy demon coin should not be an issue). D tier just because it's nice to pull off. -Geometrical Dominator 1st coin - It's an extremely well put together coin that may be buggy, but it's still really well made and actually has you thinking on ways that you could get it. S(minus) because of the minor bugs. -Deadlocked 2nd coin - S tier because of how clean it is, there's nothing in the way (and I actually didn't even realize the invisible block isn't there unless you go for it). The cheesing also doesn't change anything from my rating as it's VERY unconventional -Seven Seas 1st coin - Very nitpicky claim, but I think it's not that hard to memorize since the block actually shakes before it drops. If you are actively trying to get this coin, you will remember "Oh, there's the block" and you will jump since it's clear. First time not so apparent, but same goes for many other coins that are objectively very good C+ Tier. -Viking Arena 2nd coin - This is the first big disagreement, it gets a D from me. I don't see the appeal, it slightly hints and you go back up. It feels a bit boring, and you actually contradict yourself in saying that coins should provide an extra challenge. I just find this coin to be quite bland and could definitely use some improvement. C tier. -Airborne Robots 2nd coin - I'm not giving this one a rating but I think it's important to note that this level is also meant as a beginner level. They are indeed stale, but a bit too harsh for what is meant to be a 4-5* level. There were MANY more slight alterations I would make that aren't worth noting. I got a bit lazy towards the end noting them but nothing too crazy was left out. I will mention however that I would bump up the majority of the new revisions of the Subzero coins simply because they aren't that bad. That's my list, I had to rewatch half of the video because I had this idea at about Clubstep. Thank you to whoever actually bothers reading this, and have a good day edit: S- in geometrical dominator crossed the text out, changed to S(minus)
