Viprin | "Dry Out Copyable 2" (Extreme Demon) by tenzk, mestupidgd, robtobfreak & more | Geometry Dash 2.2 @viprin | Uploaded 6 months ago | Updated 7 hours ago
Judging by the level name, "dry out copyable 2", this seems like a bit of a goofy project. However, that isn't necessarily the case, as proven by some levels in the past, and it certainly doesn't mean the level can't be good. I'd say the level leans into the name well, but it's more of a playful vibe if anything. This is seen throughout the level, with a lot of varied color combinations and general object usage. Some parts mix in simple but cool effects, while others have some funny art. My favorite stretch is probably 1:19 to 1:43 due to some cool ideas executed well, such as the appearing window structures, smooth transitions, the framed visuals, and the usage of split screen shaders. It all remains at a decently high quality, though, with fun ideas distributed nicely around. This is kept up relatively well for the total duration of over 3 minutes. There are of course some parts that aren't as interesting, but this is to be expected with such a big team. This has been in the works for many years according to the host, and I'm pleasantly surprised by how neat it turned out finished in 2.2. It's a fun level visually that will hopefully be enjoyable to play too once it's verified. Special thanks to tenzk and Luqualizer for reaching out about showcasing this project!

This is the sixth Legendary level thus far, and only the third Platformer one. Considering the quality in both gameplay and visuals, as well as the overall experience, I think its deserved. This will give you at least a good 5 minutes of playtime, but even more if you try to go for the secret routes, which lead to coins. Its nice to see a Legendary thats a bit on the easier side for accessibilitys sake.
I mentioned the overall experience, which lies in the usage of art and audio. Everything feels intentional for the sake of emphasizing the theme of the level. As the title says, this is about a tornado sweeping over an area, but before that you have to pass through some nice nature and then into a fortress. Further into the level, you have to make it through the tornado yourself as it wreaks havoc on the environment. At the end, you are back where you started, but all you see are the ruins. This connects the start and end really nicely, making for a cohesive story overall, even though its a bit depressing. Without great art for both the background and foreground, as well as fitting music and SFX usage, the theme wouldnt be portrayed nearly as good. AbstractDark has always been great at making themed levels, and with these tools, its no surprise it ended up this good.

I got a little taste of puzzle platformers in some recently rated levels, but none of them were as full-fledged as this. There are roughly ten stages, which all fill up the entire screen. Your goal is to reach the bottom, both in each stage and the level as a whole, as each stage follows below the previous. The stages gradually introduce unique mechanics, such as the time-limited platforms, pink swirls that boost you, and invisible platforms that can be lit up temporarily. At first, a stage may use only one of these, making it relatively easy to clear, but the last stages mix them all together in clever ways. This can be a little confusing and overwhelming at first, but if you like puzzles its worth beating in my opinion. Its very satisfying to figure out how to solve a stage and clear it.
The visuals go hand in hand with the gameplay as well. Using an underwater theme for this concept is a great choice, and ImMaxX1 implemented it very well. The block designs and decorations look really good across the board. Most importantly, the unique mechanics use colors that stand out while still fitting in in each stage. My favorite visuals are probably for the final stages, such as at 1:29, where the invisible blocks are covered in fog. Its a great usage of the new particles that fit perfectly with the theme. The small effects when theyre toggled on temporarily is the cherry on top. Of course, the audio work is also on point, with fitting SFX when mechanics are used. Its also really cool how the song gets slower and quieter the further down you go.
From uploading some of ImMaxX1s works at the end of 2.1, I knew they wouldnt disappoint in execution, but this surprised me a bit with how clever the puzzle mechanics are. To get the full experience, I think you should try this out for yourself in-game without watching this video too closely. It will probably be rated 8 Moons, so its not too hard. There are some neat coins for additional challenges like doing it in below 180 seconds and dying 0 times (each stage has a checkpoint).
