I had some extent of a character arc when I discovered this level. My first time hearing about it was when it got rated, and to see on the rate bot that is uses Menace was just funny to me at first. But then I actually watched a video of it, and I became really intrigued. It's such an underrated new feature that came with 2.2; being able to use multiple songs on a level and use triggers that can slow them, pause them, and so on. This level executes that seamlessly. Three songs that don't relate to each other, yet they work together so well on this. Just was something I really enjoyed about this. The level itself is also excellent. It's pretty laggy; enough so to convince me to use CBF to mitigate it, but it is a super cool level visually and was well worth the difficulty that full detail likely added in. I didn't immediately notice when I first watched a video of it that there's just a little bit of 2 player gameplay with the level, which worried me for a moment when I started playing, but it didn't turn out to be a major issue. My experience wasn't really that great in part due to the learning process, but far more of it was just because my keyboard is dying out, and I had a lot of dropped inputs when playing this. My only other issues with the level come for it being a little unbalanced. The first part of the level is by far the hardest, and the first drop part felt like a substantial difficulty jump as well. The other parts of the level wouldn't be close to an extreme demon in my opinion. Not much else for me to say about this one since the experience was relatively short. It's just a really cool piece of work that, albeit not perfect to play, was well worth the time and is something I greatly respect in all aspects.
