DISCORD (now with requests!): discord.gg/K8CEmAw

I got another new hardest! Paroxysm actually took me far less time to beat this than Auroral Darkness, but idk this might be more my skillset.

I originally intended to beat this level for two reasons. One reason was because it was in the range of difficulty I wanted to try to jump to next. The other reason was because I found it absolutely hilarious how consistently bad the enjoyment ratings were from victors of the level and wanted to try it out myself.

I went in expecting a horrible experience, but instead happened upon one of the best experiences I've ever had with an extreme.

Paroxysm's difficulty relies entirely upon random chokepoints throughout the level, and between these chokepoints is basically filler Insane / Low Extreme gameplay. It's understandable why most people would despise this level because of the chokepoints, but I actually had a ton of fun trying to find consistent methods for the parts. By using different decoration objects, click patterns, and music cues (the level is very well synced) I was able to basically get consistent at every chokepoint in the level, and by today I was able to get to the end of the level consistently, getting 77 and 100 within around 10 minutes of each other.


Would I recommend this?
no

unless youre fine with chokepoints in that case its actually rly fun
