DenseCabbage Attempts: 37,308
Worst Fails: 37x48, 38x34, 39x12, 40x2, 41x4, 42x6, 43x5, 46x3, 47x2, 48x4, 55, 67x2, 68, 69, 70, 72x4, 73x4, 74, 75x5, 80
Total Deaths past 36%: 141

I'm not gonna write a cringy description this time but I'll talk about how I got into playing the level and some of my thoughts on it as well as my experience playing it. I originally found out about this level from Syzzii and tried playing it like 2 years ago. It felt absolutely impossible and I never thought anyone would ever beat it because of how unbalanced and broken it was. At some point I discovered a few routes that made it much easier in the second half and ended up doing 36-100% which was a tied WR run at the time. Fast forward to about 6 months ago I decided to come back to the level and I realized it might actually be possible. After grinding it for a bit I got to the 36% dual and decided I was going to try to verify it. Sadly after getting 73% I dropped it for a bit due to me getting demotivated and overall just really bored of playing the predrop over and over again. Then, on May 26, 2023, 8 days ago, Hipo suddenly uploaded a verification of the level. It absolutely crushed me. However, I believe this is wasn't a bad thing. Anyone who verifies a level open to the public has the right to do so and deserves it if they are the first to do so. Also, I don't think I would have come back to this level if it weren't for Hipo, or at least for a long time. To be honest though, I'm quite satisfied with being first victor instead of the verifier. I still managed to pull it off, and I still did what I, and many other, may have thought was impossible. So thank you to everyone who kept encouraging me and helped me stay determined until the very end. I also think this is my new hardest achievement although some people might not agree. While the raw difficulty of the level is really not that hard, it has balancing even worse than Sakupen Circles. You pretty much pass the predrop every attempt just to die to the first few seconds of the wave and replay the predrop. This experience lasts for hours upon hours and it felt like absolute purgatory just sitting there doing the same 15 seconds of gameplay over and over and over. And if you look at my deaths, I died a lot past 39%. Once you get into the 40's, you did 90% of the difficulty. There's only a few hard clicks at the end and you're done. But unfortunately for me, I have nerves of cardboard and die to everything a million times and have to relive the experience of replaying the predrop over and over for hours on end. This mental struggle of just sitting and getting nowhere was was made this level so impossible for me and why I'm so proud of myself for finishing it even after dying at 80% which was my worst fail I've ever had in this game. So yeah. I'm just glad it's over and I can finally rest.

DenseCabbage 2026-09-20 | I have never suffered more from anything else in my life. I have never felt more hopeless than I have from this level. This morning, something good happened. I have some hope now...
This is my greatest achievement in the game, even harder than FF.

DenseCabbage 2026-09-02 | Ok this is really sad but really funny too, I spent like 20 minutes writing a really nice description and tabbed out to check something and tabbed back in and tried to backspace the last word I typed and it deleted the whole description I wrote :skull: so I guess no description for now until I feel like writing it again. Sorry lol :3

Probably my second hardest demon just a little easier than qoUEO.
Also this is definitely my favorite extreme I have beaten it's really good and has super fun wave gameplay that is soulful and well balanced for the most part.

This surprised me a lot. I was expecting a shitty cooks challenge with awful gameplay and a boring, annoying experience. What I got instead was a pleasantly enjoyable click pattern, a consistent and rewarding challenge, and an overall great experience despite dying to the last release twice lol. GG and thank you to Vague for this challenging experience during my journey for perfection beating these 7 levels.

Here is my order of difficulty from hardest to easiest

I found this level pretty fun especially from 0. The 60% section was really tough at first but it gets a bit easier over time especially with sleep buff. Not many complaints, pretty solid challenge.

Really cool level that gives a lot of different skillsets to practice. I have some problems with the execution of the gameplay but it does get pretty fun and consistent. I'm glad I tried this out cause it seemed really scary at first but it was actually a good challenge to beat.

i am proud to say i finally ended up beating 521 this year after being too scared in the past so i am very proud of myself for actually committing to it and beating one of my bucket list challenges! i believe i am the only person to ever die in the 50's on 521 so that's kind of a funny thing to have done lol. the yatagarasu route was still worth doing regardless of my silly fail.

happy 5/21 everyone!
i hope you all enjoyed this completion of 521 :D

i hope you enjoyed these completions of the first 3 horks. yes, first 3. i think someone or Something may know whats coming next...

After playing this game for 7 years and being a part of the challenge community for over 5 of those years, I have finally verified my first list challenge. This means so so so much to me and is probably my proudest accomplishment in this game other than maybe FF. Thank you to Meatius for making this level and for allowing me to verifiy it. Thank you to all my friends who watched me and supported me as I verified this. You all know who you are :)

Blueprint Verified! (Ruby Challenge?)

DenseCabbage 2026-04-01 | Attempts: 4,636
Playtime: 3 hrs
Difficulty: I'd say either high emerald or low ruby but im putting ruby in the title cause apparently I underrate all my challenges by 2 ranks every time.

I hope some people like this challenge. I tried to make something kinda different with these weird hitbox circle things and a layout design. I built it all super fast too which is rare for me. I'd love to see some people give this a try and give me their thoughts cause I love seeing people try to beat my levels. Good luck to anyone who attempts this :D

(Verifying) Lust 71% // ~Top 50 Challenge

DenseCabbage 2026-03-29 | Attempts: 117,435 (6k are from coming back)

So I'm finally coming back to Lust, and WOW this run was super unexpected. Like hitting the lottery unecpected. I'll probably put at least 10k more attempts by the time I get back to the ending again.
To give you all some info, I was told my Meatius to nerf the level since my buffed version was most likely harder than Gluttony, the second level in the sds series. With Lust being the first in the series, it is meant to be the easiest so I am aiming for it to be around top 50. It's very hard for me to tell now after nerfing it of where it would place. I'm quite confident its at least harder than all gdsr diamond wave challenges which would make it top 60 or harder. For those wondering what nerfs were done, all I had to do to make it a lot easier is making the tunnel at the start the original difficulty where like half the clicks aren't frame perfect. Oh and also the black orb in the second section. Other than that the level is still the same as my buffed version. So I'm quite happy with the balancing now as the beginning is still the hardest part but its not WAY harder like how it used to be. I think the people who are very interested in this type of challenge will enjoy it for the most part and I'm definitely feeling motivated to finish this verification now :D
