Pretty fun overall, looks really cool for a nine circles level. The waves are very satisfying to play, my only issue with this level is the transition at 50%, it is actually quite easy to die there and that can be annoying.

![(Mobile) Plasma Pulse 100% [Insane Demon] by Smokes & Giron | Geometry Dash
This level was so annoying. It’s actually pretty enjoyable up until 55%. The first 20% is almost free, and quite fun. The wave looks intimidating but gets very consistent and is also quite fun. The UFO took me so much time to learn, you have to be extremely precise and learn all the clicks perfectly or else you’ll hit a gear. When you do get consistent at it, it’s pretty fun. Then we get to the dual part. This dual is one of the most buggy parts I’ve ever played, especially 61%, there’s no way to do it consistently, you just spam and hope you’ll not die at one of the two bugs. After that we have some easy clicks and then...the dual ship. Now, this dual ship is terrible but I can’t blame it on the creators. The dual ship physics are broken, your ship is actually heavier in dual mode, which makes tight ship parts much harder than what they should be. After that the level is pretty easy until the end, although I still died to the last 20% because of a bug (what a surprise...). Anyway, this level could have been good but it wasn’t.

Visually, this is another Clubstep inspired level from 1.6 so I dont have anything to say. I think it looks fine for its time.
The gameplay is not bad at all, the only real issues being 3% and 40% which are both very inconsistent ship sections. There are some awkward parts here and there such as the ship at the drop and the ball at 65%.
That being said, this level was surprisingly fun because of how consistent it got. I didnt really enjoy it when I started playing it but it got a lot better with time. I think this is a good level to play if you already have some experience with extreme demons; I cant see this being fun as a new hardest.
Lastly, I think this is an extreme demon on 60hz but an insane demon on anything above that. It definitely felt easier than Klutz for instance.

This is the easiest part of the level but I’m still happy with this, I highly doubt I’ll be able to do a better run. (Mobile) Conical Depression 52-100% [EXTREME DEMON] by Krmal | Geometry Dash](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sfP-WY5VQfY/mqdefault.jpg)
![(Mobile) An Expression 100% [Insane Demon] by TMNGaming | Geometry Dash
An Expression is a fantastic level. TMN has always been one of my favorite creators because of the unique atmosphere all of his levels carry. This level is not the most polished, it doesn’t feature the most impressive decoration, but it absolutely doesn’t need that to be as good as it is, because all the parts feel complete and allow the level to have such a great atmosphere. It’s one of those levels that I just instinctively like without really knowing why, and that goes for many more TMN levels. Another think I’d like to point out is how TMN does what’s best to fit the song even if it requires making 10 different looking parts in 20 seconds, which doesn’t only set him apart from other creators but also makes his levels represent the song they use flawlessly. This can be seen at the drop in this level.
The gameplay was relatively fun. Learning took me a while, due to the unusual gameplay. Weird gameplay like this is often kind of awkward at first but gets incredibly fun after the learning process, which it did in this case. This level doesn’t get boring, which made me care a lot less about deaths near the end. That being said, some gameplay elements felt sort of unfair or awkward, for example the transition into the drop which leaves very little time to react or the very first part at times.
This is nonetheless a very fun level and considering how awesome it is visually, I can only recommend it if you haven’t completed it yet.
Attempts: 613 (not 713; 100 of those were very old and didn’t help me beating the level)

This is so fun (oh and also yes this is ocular miracle but they split up the level into 3 parts since it was too laggy, I feel like I can do this level, not sure about the other two though).

![(Mobile) Ecstasy 47-90% [Extreme Demon] by SleyGD | Geometry Dash
By far the hardest run I’ve done so far, this wave part is insanely hard and without a doubt the hardest part. I really hope it can get somewhat consistent, because it’s after many other hard parts. That 90% death was pretty expected, it’s a really hard timing imo.

![(Mobile) Death Note by Ruf [60hz]
Edit: I beat this level before the buffdate got reverted.
My least favorite insane demon, or even my least favorite demon, probably forever because I can’t see anything being worse than this. This level is so absurdly bad that it’s hard for me to describe just how much I hate it. I’ll just talk about each part individually.
The first wave is probably the easiest part, it’s quite boring but it doesn’t feature particularly annoying stuff if you ignore the inverted slopes. The following ship is pretty awkward, especially with those unbearably annoying bushy spikes. It gets somewhat consistent after a while but dying there is incredibly annoying. 15% also sucks, sometimes it feels like no matter how early I hold I’ll hit a saw anyway. Then you have some awkward flying before getting to the ball part. A pretty decent part at first because it’s so easy, then you get to this awful timing at 29%. Nothing else to say, it’s just an infuriating click, but don’t worry, it gets far worse. At 34% is another terrible part, I died there 90% of the time when I started playing this before finding a super awkward click pattern that let me pass it consistently enough.
Now, this whole predrop is kind of annoying but it’s bearable. If the whole level was like this, it would be pretty unenjoyable but nothing even close to Galatic Fragility. Then we get to the drop.
The wave that goes from 44% to 51% is horrible to the power of awful, so essentially really annoying. The amount of luck based, unfair timings or spammy parts Ruf was able to fit in 4 seconds of gameplay is actually just unbelievable. The rest of the wave is okay at best, except for the mini wave transition at 57% which is really bad because Ruf decided to put a wave portal (???) which completely hides the wave’s trail. And now, let’s talk about the hardest part and possibly the most luck based thing I’ve seen in a level, 61%. Not only does this part require insane precision, you need to click a few times to get past it. It’s not like Sword Dance where you just have one hard timing, here you need to time every single click near perfectly, which makes it ridiculously hard. I don’t know what Ruf was thinking, this is about as a bad as a chokepoint can be. I died there 41 times. And after a pretty easy ball part, get ready for 71% because don’t forget: this level gets worse as it goes (somehow). This wave part is so, so, so bad. It looks incredibly awkward to play and it is incredibly awkward to play. I used a click pattern to get somewhat consistent but this will never be 100% consistent, died there 13 times. Doing this after getting past 61% is even harder, this part just sucks. I don’t even have enough negative words to describe the level at this point. The level is then very easy until 93% which is the worst way to end this level. Another unnecessarily hard and awkward part. At 93%. I died 4 TIMES there. Do you realize how painful it is to die 4 times at the very last hard part in this level specifically? Anyway, overall my experience with this was awful. I’m unbelievably happy that I don’t have to play this ever again. Definitely an extreme demon for me, felt harder than Incipient at the very least.
