This got rated earlier today and it has a song I have not heard in GD in a good while so I wanted to beat it as I needed a level for 8,600 demons. I sadly did not end up enjoying this one, as I personally found the base gameplay to not suit extreme demon difficulty. I believe the base gameplay of this level would be much better suited to a hard or insane demon, as a lot of the timings felt unnaturally difficult and the deaths I was getting felt unfair. Combined with that, the level was unfortunately a bit laggy due to the shader usage, it's probably better in LDM but I prefer to play in full detail so I do wish there was a toggle to limit the shader usage without having to remove some of the other details. Personally, this level wasn't for me but it is very nice to watch and the song is great so maybe others will enjoy it more than I did.

I love 2.0 levels. They give me the most nostalgia out of any time period as I got the full version of GD around 2 weeks after the update released, so all of my oldest memories are those of the entirety of that version of the game. As a demongrinder, I often find that 2.0 levels are the most tedious and frustrating to play out of any time period of the game, and when playing a couple of them recently I suddenly felt really motivated to try making something that looks like it came straight out of that time period, with the difference being what I hope is fun gameplay without a lot of the unfair nature that 2.0 levels contain. I found this song after a few hours of searching through various recently uploaded Dubstep songs to Newgrounds, and while the vocal chops in the song are very goofy I think it represents the time period really well. This took me close to 2 weeks to build and it is undoubtedly a huge step up from the quality of my first level, Reptile.
Some parts in this level are very out of place and unfitting but that was intentional due to the nature of levels at the time, along with other various quirks such as incorrect 3D, random text, etc. In my and playtesters opinions this seems to be a high end insane demon, so I think itd be really cool if this ends up on the IDL if rated. I really hope people find this fun to play :3
