wow. i really didnt think id ever upload this. i struggled a lot on this level, and it shows. im gonna give a rundown on what makes this level so god damn awful. first off, theres a jump in the dual at about 5% that is way harder than it needs to be, the wave right after at 6% is literally way too fucking tight, the wave spam at 19, especially the transition into the normal gravity portal, is really fucking annoying, 25.62% specifically is really annoying, i have a 31-69 passrate there, 26 is really stupid, the mini part right before the dual at 33 is pretty buggy, xcy7's entire part is well, its xcy, the first ship click of the second drop around 40 is really hard and very buggy due to slopes, the wave right after is inconsistent, the cube part is really buggy and hard to align correctly, and then we have the luck wave. the first 2 clicks with the dual are misaligned, so you have to click and release in really wonky times, and then right after is the worst part ive ever played in my life. its a spam section with mini wave and big wave, and i died there a lot, and it never felt like it was my fault because it was really luck based. ill let my anger regarding dying there over and over explain the rest. after that we have, not even 2 percents later, 44.14%. i died there way too many times because i couldnt hit the blue orb before the spike, and well, it got really frustrating. the part directly after that has awful hitboxes, but its not as bad as fred. fred has some really bad hitboxes so that it can look cool, and i found myself dying to places i wouldnt if the hitboxes werent jank. after we have loogiah, it should explain itself if youve played the level, but loogiah is BY FAR the hardest part imo. triple spike after triple spike, really hard orb clicks, a stupid hard ship section, with me dying to 56.87% quite often, and a really weird buggy slope section. afterwards, with bianox and lieb the levels pretty easy until you get to terron. terrons dual ball is some of the wackiest dumbest gameplay youll ever see, coyote time hits you really often so you very commonly die to really stupic places, and its generally really buggy especially with the transition into the solo ball, those are all buffers, but you have to align them literally PERFECTLY by entering the transition as early as possible, but remember theres coyote time so it feels like a fucking 2-frame. afterwards theres a bug where you die to a ship click thats an orb, pretty dumb, and then theres another bug at 70 i died to a few times. after that its really good until after platnuu, where theres the duals, theres a lot of bugs, 81, 82, and 83 specifically are really stupid (literally all the dual lollll). after we have xaro, which is pretty stupid but you get the hang of it, and the final part i have issues with is noriega where the dual part is just dumb. this is the happiest ive ever been, and i cant think of anything that could possibly make me happier.
