I don't know why it took me so long to get to this one. I helped playtest this back in early February of this year and I found it very fun when I did, so I guess I probably just didn't feel like playing levels of this difficulty. I'm not sure what the general consensus of this level is among victors, as the first 50% is basically just 2-3* gameplay and the second half is like Hard Tier gameplay. I can imagine this one being extremely boring and/or frustrating if you are not far above its skill range, but personally I found it very enjoyable.

Usually when a level has this sort of long intro, regardless of how enjoyable I find the gameplay following it, I tend to not enjoy it too much. That wasn't the case here for me, mainly due to the song and decorations. Atmosphere is the most important factor any level can have for me to really enjoy it, and the atmosphere of the predrop is really good in this level. Despite the decoration and effects being somewhat minimal here, they are very pretty to look at, and this was especially the case for the falling squares effect in the background as I found it rather mesmerizing to watch them. The song choice in this level is also really good, and it couples very nicely with the effects, especially in the predrop.

I only really found myself getting frustrated at this levels balancing when a drop attempt would end to one of the orbs at 56%, because these were the hardest clicks of the drop for me and it was early enough to feel like a bit of a buzzkill. I was also not too big of a fan of the timings in the very last dash orb section, but this is possibly a personal issue as I am very poor at microreleases which this part requires to be consistent at. That aside, I really enjoyed this one and would definitely recommend it, but probably only to people way above its skill range or those with a lot of patience for slow beginnings.
