The first time, I somehow, miraculously, fluked it from 78%, an escape so undeserved it should have been my final goodbye. But no, fate wasn’t that merciful. Because, in my infinite incompetence, I forgot to record it. And so, I returned to the abyss, forced to relive the torment I had sworn to leave behind. This time, however, the level would not let me go so easily. No, instead, I had to endure the ultimate humiliation dying at the very end. Not once. Not twice. But multiple times. Each death carving itself into my brain like a scar, each failure another step further into complete mental collapse.
There is no joy in this level, no redeeming quality to be found. Every second spent playing it felt like I was willingly poisoning myself, subjecting my mind and body to a torment that no human should endure. The gameplay is a meticulously crafted form of agony, a sequence of jumps, timings, and mechanics so fundamentally unpleasant that it makes every other "bad" level seem like a gift from the heavens in comparison. Every input is a gamble, every section an exercise in patience that is neither earned nor rewarded. There is no rhythm, no satisfaction only pain, frustration, and the creeping realization that this is what true despair feels like.
But what makes Hard Machine truly special, what elevates it from "bad level" to "experience I would erase from my memory if given the chance," is the knowledge that none of this was necessary. I had won. I had beaten it. And yet, because of some cruel twist of fate, because of a momentary lapse in awareness, I was forced to go back. And that second journey destroyed me. The deaths at the end weren’t just frustrating, they were soul-crushing, a slow, deliberate unraveling of my sanity. Each one made the level seem longer, more grating, more inescapable.
This is not just a bad level. It is an experience so devoid of reason, so fundamentally broken, that calling it “designed” feels like an offense to the concept of intentionality. No person, no living being, could have truly *created* this. *Hard Machine* is a cosmic joke, a cruel anomaly birthed not by conscious effort but by some unholy accident of fate. It is the perfect storm of frustration, the embodiment of everything that should not be.
I will never recover from this. The scars are permanent, the suffering eternal. I should have walked away. I should have let the fluke be my closure. But now, there is no closure only the knowledge that I willingly revisited my own personal hell and was burned alive for it. And for what? A completion that feels like nothing? A victory so hollow it might as well be a loss? There is no triumph here. Only pain. Only regret.
Attempts: Meaningless. No number could ever quantify the sheer mental decay this level inflicted upon me.
Enjoyment: A complete and utter absence of anything resembling joy only suffering, frustration, and regret.
Personal Difficulty Rating: Impossible to rate, because difficulty implies a challenge worth overcoming, and this was nothing but a slow descent into madness.
these are after coming back to it yesterday ( my best before was 44%)

I never expected to get wr on this so quickly but here we are
not even a week ago I was like "what if I played some death corridor for fun" and surprisingly I did pretty good at it.
this world record was pretty hard nonetheless, the main parts I had issues with were of course 19% and the spam transition into the last predrop cube, other than that it was pretty fun to play icl
as for the attempt count I have no idea what it is but if I had to guess it'd be somwhere around 2-3k which I know sounds ridiculous but if you consider the fact that every attempt is like 10-20 seconds it make sense
also I was playing on the wrong version for like the longest time and I had no idea so I ended up getting 40% on that version accidentally. And I also got 42% like 10 minutes before this run which is kinda crazy
This is definitely one of my favorite levels of all time. Every single aspect of this level is amazing. This level focuses less on difficulty and more on the learning aspect which made it easy for some like me who's not that great at platformer to pick it up. I'd definitely recommend this as a first top 10 cuz its really fun even if my hardest was Robot King LOL
Enjoyment: 10/10
