This level got 2nd place in my creator contest as well as the Fan Favorite Award. Its easy to see why. A masterclass in thematic designs tied together in an incredible atmosphere and journey! The last ship section had my jaw on the floor with how crazy its effect was! Really impactful trick ending as well. The gameplay in this level is also very good, with the biggest issues being the section around 21%.
Honestly this level would have been 1st by a fair bit had it used its 1.0 features more strictly. Unfortunately, due to layering, going past the ceiling to achieve the floating ship effect, and some micro-movements, this level *just* missed SPICED by a few points. Regardless, this is definitely a 1.0 project you need to experience to really understand how incredible it is, so I HIGHLY recommend checking it out yourself!
