Eleos - Unnerfed vs Nerfed | Comparison Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-10-06 | Eleos is a pretty cool and rather unfortunate extreme demon. It was an impossible level when made, nerfed and verified by Septagon7 in mid 2.1 and estimated to be list worthy I believe at the time. However, it did not get rated for 4 years after verification, which caused it to fall into obscurity entirely. The nerfs weren't terribly massive but were pretty significant regardless.IDs: 55060204 (Nerfed), 112370047 (Unnerfed)Song: youtube.com/watch?v=JgNs6VhXY4MCreators: zZenith and ChiefFlury
(Preview) DUAL SPIDER ONLY - SPIDER BITE by Terralith and more | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-10-06 | Spider Bite was made with the goal in mind to get a rated extreme utilizing only the spider gamemode (No, piano woman does not count, and this was started before the rate). This features very nice gameplay, I really find the ending duals quite satisfying to watch. Decoration is getting there too, stay tuned for more previews, this is a good one. Aimed to be top 50, with zLevii as the verifier.ID: PrivateSong: newgrounds.com/audio/listen/916183Creators: Terralith, Azure, RSoara, VivisectionGD, GWdDos
New Top 125 - In This by EnciGD | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-10-05 | A modern decoration top 125 verified a couple weeks ago. I meant to showcase it then, but forgot to. Took 31 months for this level, and it is pretty good, but maybe a bit short.ID: 122389640Song: So Good [Loop] by XorberaxCreator: EnciGD
SO COOL - COLD MAP by Crimson77 | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-10-05 | A super well decorated high end insane demon that I found recently. The decoration is just so awesome in this level. These block designs and pulses really make it feel like a cold area. Extremely well done 1.9 decoration level themed on ice. I still like Frost Spirit by xHalzion more, but this is still a real nice solo effort that deserves a feature rating. I did find the gameplay slightly annoying in the first part.ID: 125387379Song: TMM43 - Ultimate DestructionCreator: Crimson77
1.6 Banger - Tetraloop by Swirl | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-10-05 | Tetraloop is a cool level from the 1.6 era that looks like it is from 1.3 or 1.2. An ancient example of making a masterpiece in an older version with newer experiences (like the 1.6, 1.9, and 2.0 GDPS' do). The light beams are very cool, and I really find the structuring to be very clean for this time period. Awesome stuff from the creator, hope to see it rated.ID: 864482Song: Time Machine - WaterflameCreator: Swirl
BURN by SoleyGD | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-10-04 | A solo extreme demon by Soley, with a unique song. The decoration isn't anything too special, worthy of a starrate I suppose. Most definitely on the eaiser side of extremes. Verified by the creator of the NG cover, Availax.ID: 106207529Song: youtu.be/4xhEh4ceyz8?si=pfz2vuAmA5yhY1a0Creator: SoleyGDRequested by @ninedescent
New Version Verified! - Back on Mountain by MaJackO | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-10-04 | Back on Mountain was a level made by MaJackO with a brutal unnerfed version that was verified by Stormfly in 2022. There were apparently some inaccuracies in the restoration that were fixed a couple days ago, with my friend @Glowgmd verifying in the same day of restoration which is pretty wild. Very goated man, verified another level which got an accuracy fix (Theory of Darkness) recently.More in depth info about the level can probably be found on Stormfly's channel.ID: 26751794 (it got updated)Song: Back on Track - DJVICreator: MaJackO and Restoration Union
Amazing SOLO - The End is Here by Doggie | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-10-04 | This awaited solo extreme from Doggie is finally released. And it is absolutely amazing. Doggie previewed this throughout the year, with it gaining a lot of hype due to the creative gameplay as well as the fact that a top youtube and player was also making a really unique and awesome level. This gameplay is super creative and we haven't really seen much of this type of 2p dual be used in an actual level. Doggie certainly delivered, as the decoration, while not exactly being my type, has been so very awesome in this level. I was genuinely kind of blown away with what he has made. The drop has some insane effects, with a nice predrop which builds nicely. Doggie has been a top notch editor and content creator since 2019, a good player since 2020, and a decent creator since 2015. This man is SO well rounded it's crazy. The only other players who might be similar in this fasion are Technical and npesta, maybe Zoink if he picks up his creating game. Insane work from Doggie, i hope this will receive an epic rating or higher. ID: 126657080Song: youtube.com/watch?v=UQByi9IHiZoCreator: DoggieDasher
1.0 Masterpiece!! - Phantom Engine by EchoTheBatFurry | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-10-03 | We got 2 back to back mindblowing 1.0 styled levels. The other one was showcased by Nexus already so I thought why not do the other one. This level is themed around a toxic factory if I'm not mistaken. Really innovative stuff for the restrictions of 1.0. Hell, you couldn't even use mirror portals, how would you make a good level before them? This was surprisingly already rated, as an 8 star. Beat this in 2 attempts, first of which i choked at 85%. This has 166k objects, which is pretty nuts.Also, i changed my colors to orange for this as it uses player colors a lot. I used the icon edit feature on megahack to make it look white again, but the particles and trail are off.ID: 126588248Song: Machina - DexArsonCreator: EchoTheBatFurryEven higher quality video that got messed up somehow, idk why youtu.be/aYBPbTV2i4Q?si=_sq6GNIAQsP5ghGk
Awesome Unrated 1.9 - Iron Oxide by TarryTaw | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-10-03 | A very cool 1.9 decorated take on this style. I really resonate with ts level ngl. Just all around nice usage of 1.9 deco for song rep. Seemingly good gameplay, estimated to be an easier level, but not sure exactly where. Would be awesome if it got rated.ID: 103883302Song: Creo - OutlawCreator: TarryTaw
Former Upcoming Top 0 - Amaterasu by Wespdx and more | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-10-02 | This level was infamous back in 2021 for being a part of the next generation of Geometry Dash difficulty, couned "Top 0"; significantly harder than the average upcoming top 1 (which are the time included levels like Sonic Wave Infinity, Slaughterhouse, Orochi, Galaxy Collapse and Firework). This level was previewed in February of 2021, with the top 1 being Tartarus, hardest level Blind Blizzard, and I estimate this to be around the difficulty of Grief, if physical impossibilities are fixed. This showcase is not of the same version Wesp showed at that time, rather a newer version that was never shown to the public. It features the decoration of Zipixbox at the swingcopter part near the end of the level. This level as you can imagine, was quite ambitious and had high standards placed on it. However, it did end up dying, with the level not being allowed for release until very recently when RASTeam contacted Wesp and was given the copies of the two versions. So cool to imagine what could've been, as the decoration was looking very solid for that time period, along with some decent gameplay enhancements. As mentioned previously, this was ridiculously difficult for the time of creator, and while it may still be top 1, it definitely isn't worthy of the "top 0" title, as it also doesn't even come close to the other levels advertised as such, like Adramalech, Bad Times and Lament.

PLATFORMER IN 2.0? - Gravitrons Z3F | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-30 | I showcased a cool art level from this guy yesterday, and I went to check his other stuff out, and they are really just the coolest stuff from this era. Made for a G4lvatron creator contest in very early 2.0 and unfortunately got 6th place. Either way, it's so impressive that this was done that long ago. He also has another level inspired by IWBTG from early 2.1. Overall a superrrr underrated creator with ZERO CREATOR POINTS somehow... can we get his stuff rated bruh. Also it appears he played GD after 2.2's release so that's pretty cool. Absolute peamID: 17849182Song: youtube.com/watch?v=JhkIRzZsZvwCreator: Z3F

This has apparently been in the works for over 5 years, being released just yesterday, verified by Hulunn as a potential top 200 extreme demon. I guess it's old age is the reason for why some parts look so 2020.

Operation Evolution - Unnerfed vs Nerfed | Comparison Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-29 | An XXL memory level, verified by Cobrablitz. This level is much longer than the usual 1.9 or even just memory levels. The last 30% is brutal to bot, unsure how it'd be normally. Either way the level is brutal as a whole just to play. It's 5 minutes of medium-high end extreme demon gameplay but memory. Originally estimated to be top 100 but ended up top 30 because cobrablitz funny haha. So glad this did get a rate after being unrated for 5 months.

Midnight - Unnerfed vs Nerfed | Comparison Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-27 | A comparison between the top 50 demon Midnight and it's original unnerfed version. Original was verified by Nei and rated in the final month of 2.1. It also ended up being underrated in placement. Overall it's a fire level imo, but others might not like it as much. The unnerfed version stands above levels like Ephemeral Abyss and AnNoYeD Machine, and about 100 spots above TS II on the ILL. It's possible but would be very hard.ID: 96083028 (Nerfed), Private (Unnerfed)Song: youtube.com/watch?v=smBmOzrIrJ0Creator: zYuko

Found! - The Ultimate Phase 2 by TacoMacho and more | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-26 | One of the many visions for a sequel to The Ultimate Phase. This is a megacollab started in 2.0 by TacoMacho as a 3rd attempt to make an official sequel of "The Ultimate Phase". During 2016, 6 parts were completed but sadly it quickly died and none of the parts were shown publicly. However after 4 years Akira Kurisu showcased a copy of the lvl featuring new stuff and also adding new parts (such as MadBurritos part, but was later replaced), this version had 2.1 parts such as TacoMacho and replaced the GDgemini part made during 2.0. After the project was progressing and in the making, it was suddenly cancelled due to the Akira Kurisu drama during 2020, leaving the lvl abandoned once again. On 2022, one of the Zynvire's friends (Darrel) showcased an unseen fully completed version featuring Zynvire, zZenith and Necro Bit parts, these last two being close friends of TacoMacho and also collabing before with him on other collabs (Interestingly, the Necro Bit part is reused from a solo level that was canceled in 2019).ID: 124846547Song: youtube.com/watch?v=FDI65nfKcKo&ab_channel=DeemoR.

Meant to showcase this last week but the TS Remakes and Flamewall videos made me distracted. Anyway, this is a nice and simple level by HaloZombies, 2 years of work.

New Top 30 - Eclipse by StarLyGMD | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-25 | Pretty simple and chill top 30 has been verified. Some good deco elements but overall nothing outstanding. The colors and gameplay are pretty nice, we shall see if it gets rated / passes the vote on rated+ whenever that's added. The verifier jumped to it from Escape Room (recently fell off the list), and verified a top 30, which is pretty awesome.

Just know the title for this video will be the norm from now on, unless i forget.
Top 60 Verified - True evil by FwFlyGon14 | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-24 | An interesting top 60, verified by dizbro. This level does not seem very fun, it was kind of annoying to bot this.

Angelicide - Unnerfed vs Nerfed | Comparison Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-24 | A comparison between the unnerfed and unreleased version of Angelicide versus the easier, but still almost impossible version around Aeternus difficulty. (Also want to clarify that AFAIK, Kaza and Cookie are playing on even easier versions of the level, however even those would be top 1 by far). Would love to see the level get verified, in any state. The unnerfed version is definitely very impossible if you couldn't tell. I manually placed transparent blocks with a letter D in the middle to represent where D blocks are placed in the nerfed version. Also, I apologize for the bad macro at the dual, I was just not having it 🥀. Also yes, this is private.

IT MEANS EVERYTHING - VelYT vs Quivert | Comparison Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-23 | IT MEANS EVERYTHING is a 1.7 themed top 5 extreme demon. It had an unnerfed version, which is on the ILL and is the red color you see. Quivert (now known as Stefan Boss) took it upon himself to balance and verify the level, a pretty underrated player. He would get amazing progress such as 36-100% and 44% a year ago, and getting 21-94% and eventually his final progress of 21-97% on September 20th, 2025 with an announcement that he dropped it. It is not clear why he dropped it, but it is now open verification on his account. I hope Zoink ro someone else picks this level up to beat it because it is so so cool. Vel's version is around Tidal Wave on the ILL, and is harder than Quivert's version by a small amount, but both are above Tidal Wave but below Amethyst in difficulty. Vel's is overall more chokepointy and oddly balanced. Also, the ground spikes have been removed from the showcase because they have an RNG element to their patterns and it would look very distracting to see so much blue and red jutting out from everywhere. They only serve as decoration in this level unlike other levels of this era.IDs: 106165639 (VelYT), 126177603 (Quivert/Stefan Boss) Song: youtube.com/watch?v=8wKWwUzgCE8Creator: VelYT
TOP 1 CHALLENGE VERIFIED! - Re by torn49 Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-22 | Out of absolutely nowhere (to me), torn49 has verified their challenge "Re", which is apparently undoubtedly top 1. And I believe him, this level does not align on 60 or 120 fps, and it has 5 240 fps frame perfects and 25 120s. This was just so out of nowhere, but regardless huge GGs to torn for verifying this majestic looking challenge.ID: 126279500Song: youtube.com/watch?v=h3xsqTgxpB0Creator: torn49
AMAZING TOP 3 VERIFIED!!! - Flamewall by Narwall and many more | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-21 | The almost 7 minute long partial 1.9 fire themed extreme demon top 1 has finally been verified after a long journey. 115 people came together and made this absolutely insane level, that will forever stand as one of the greatest top 1s in Geometry Dash history, featuring an awesome, popular rhythm game song by the same name, Flamewall by Camellia. Verified by the legend, 400, or Cuatrocientos. I'm so happy to see him pull through with this, simply a work of dedication.History.This level was started in late 2022 by Narwall and Valentine, who wanted to make an upcoming top 3 with the song "Flamewall", which was a legendary song used in many rhythm games like Osu! and more. Gathering their layout creators, they finished the layout likely around early January 2023. Many popular figures like Neiro, fnm04, UFWM and many more were given the layout to showcase and advertise, in seek of decorators. By around March 2023, the decoration process was fully underway, and in a blisteringly fast pace, the level was already done by early September 2023 and ready for verification by the chosen verifier, OneAlphaHelix (OAH), an underrated and very talented player who had managed to be the fourth victor of Acheron by Ryamu, top 1 at the time, months prior.OAH had immediately started practicing the level on stream and had started to gain consistency. He got progress of 36% in 70k attempts on October 15th, 2023 with an astonishing heart-rate of 190 BPM at only 29% into the level. Then came the curveball that was 2.2. Brand new 240 fps locked physics along with other mechanics such as upside-down ship mobility and slopes being changed caused OAH to have to re-adjust to the level. The level was not built for 2.2, so there were many bugs in the gameplay, and not being able to play on the former 360 fps physics hindered any progress. OAH would get a final new best of 60%, with 69-100% as his best run to 100. However, to many people's surprise and disappointment, OAH out of nowhere announced that he would be dropping the level. His main reason for dropping the level was the 2.2 physics changes, along with an at the time, illegal CBF. He also stated who the new verifier would be, and it was none other than the current verifier, 400.400 was the lead playtester for Flamewall from the start, and was already very well-versed with the gameplay. His most notable prior achievement was LIMBO, so it was going to be a big jump. He started streaming the level soon after, and quickly got 24-64, 24% and 55-100x2. His progress remained steady for several months. He achieved 36% on February 17th, 2024, which would remain his new best from 0 all the way until Late June. He soon got the level in 2 runs (40% and 39-100%) by early July. However, this is where he would run into a roadblock. He was unable to get any significant runs for months. He only finally broke this curse on September 10th, 2024 with him achieving an astonishing run of 3-86%. This brought new hope to the level. He wouldn't make any more progress for 5 months afterwards, reaching past 50% from 0 for the first time in late January 2025. This would mark yet another hiatus from the level, as the next progress would come after he would beat several list demons in June, with a run of 68%. August of 2025, was his breakthrough. He got 24-100%, 80%, and finally, the most devastating fail in GD history, Flamewall 99.62%, with 2 spikes and 0.4 seconds of gameplay remaining.

The BEST Platformer In GD? - Scarlet Central by StyphonTV Exiled_Shade 2025-09-20 | A viewer of mine suggested this, and i was just expecting some average level, but this one is possibly the best suggestion i have ever gotten. This masterpiece of a platformer demon has so much to offer, it's unreal. The parallax and the effects are incredibly well done, I can't envision how it could really be improved. The decoration quality remains quite consistent throughout, and it just feels so immersive. The actual decoration quality is on parallax with classic demons that are legendary to even mythic rating. Normally, most platformers just seem average looking, "cool" for those that are legendary/some mythics, but this one is just amazing. Worst part, it's UNRATED, and has been for two weeks. So impressive, even more so considering it is a solo. As for the difficulty, I can't judge that as I know very little about platformers. I can say though, that the timing for the speedrun portion is quite tight.ID: 125385099Song: youtu.be/VIxL5FhOsDE?si=TDrWRVvvejsJT4TPCreator: StyphonTVMassive thanks to @itsYaBoiNebula for suggesting this.
Jupiter My Favourite - Old vs Update | Comparison Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-20 | Jupiter My Favourite is a beloved list demon by akunakunn that recently fell off the mainlist after placing in the top 100. The level was originally verified by Leslie (formerly LuigiDB). This update was meant to override the verification of hers, as she is a supporter of the known pedophile, AmorAltra, who drew suggestive art of minors. (here's a document going in further detail about the purpose of the update: docs.google.com/document/d/1ZUUCWWmQ-pinMTJiLm87VuNKDPOtkKWBIh_gMrf_G6A/edit?usp=sharing)However, this update is not without it's controversy either, as this was effectively a buffdate that is under the name of balance update. This update nullifies all of the victors that a classic nerf or balance update likely would not. This update takes it from around #170 on the AREDl to about #100, and honestly, it seems like it was a bit more off a buffdate. Bad idea imho, but GGs to Brian_Cheese.IDs: 126158691 (Old), 92466083 (Update)Song: youtube.com/watch?v=bdBuEuRF_osCreator: akunakunn
Restored - Trial of the Gods by Akira Kurisu and more | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-19 | A megacollab with many prominent community members from 2018 (maybe earlier?) that was left to die after Akira was exposed. It's really a shame because this could've been an awesome top 3 if properly balanced and decorated. Also features an awesome song. Definitely had a lot of potential, but Akira couldn't be a reasonable human. After his disappearance, the level had no trace anywhere, as Akira deleted his stuff (obviously). A couple weeks ago, RASTeam found an archive video and rebuilt the level. The gameplay in the current state is abhorrent to say the least, absolutely not in a playable state. 2.2 broke a robot slope part too, to top it off. Btw, there are two different versions, with this being the Akira version, as you know, with an easier version by Meatius.ID: 126049893Song: youtube.com/watch?v=6shSNwYeqZkCreators: BoyoftheCones, Noctalium, Rlol, KrmaL, TrusTa, KianTheBoss, GoodSmile, RPGRaketti, Acharne, Mince, Stormfly, MeatiusGaming, Combined, LSkyJax
Unrated 2.0 Banger - Inertia by TMNGaming | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-19 | A fun little 2.0 medium/hard demon that has some great deco and not bad usage of moving objects for the time period. The deco at the beginning is just awesome. I really enjoy this level personally, and it's really a shame this was never rated.ID: 20961744Song: youtube.com/watch?v=LV_neRFKp1MCreator: TMNGaming
Unrated Raw Demon - Forever Asleep Z by ZaphkielKnox and more | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-18 | A megacollab from late 2017 that was definitely very cool for it's time. Some questionable gameplay and variable decoration, but overall not too bad, rateworthy fs. The song seems unsynced but at the same time it does, idk the deal with this level.

Unrated - cxt my fxngers off by Bedrock | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-18 | A nice little chill level by Bedrock. Cool block designs at the beginning, cool effects at the end.

Upcoming Top 20 - CapyHouse by niroi and more | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-17 | CapyHouse is an upcoming top 20 slaughterhouse remake and parody of some other top extremes. It's themed around the host, niroi's favorite animal: the capybara. This level has been in development for years at this point, with parts taking forever, i believe this dates back to 2022. Okay so, I am your friend, but don't kill me. I gotta be honest, the level is buns at times. There's a lot of lack of cohesion and some parts just have unpolished deco. Some others are pretty awesome though. I do realize it's a joke level so I can't be too harsh on it. The verifier is Hyperlithh, with a backup verifier too. I hope he does actually play the level though lol.ID: PrivateSong: sped-up version of this youtu.be/4IahvCIqeOc?si=f57i1JS1P0zt3xg7Creators: niroi, Orbothemediocre, Minvscat, Reimu, Skywalker2016GD, TheGarbageMann, rjinc, DenoGamer, Pav, ttvs, tempetegamer, jogsilty, terra, gab, marza, JGBD, p4n2, Pwfiheh, lukky, amxrluvsgd, rvaly, StarHACK, TheAlmightyGooseKing, Olixor
Cromatic Varius - Unnerfed vs Nerfed | Comparison Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-17 | Unnerfed vs Nerfed versions of Cromatic Varius, thank you to my friend who gave me the cooy of the unnerfed version. The nerfed version was verified last year, and id you recall, i did showcase it. It's low mainlist at this point, with the unnerfed version being somewhat higher, but legit i do not know. The unnerfed is super unbalanced and has many chokepoints. IDs: Private (Unnerfed), 110469415 (Nerfed)Song: youtube.com/watch?v=3uIdoxSykgU&ab_channel=SPAZECreators: Segami, TheRealSneaky
Top 20 Verified! - Wocky Circles by kywy. | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-15 | Wocky Circles is an extreme nine circles level that kywy was verifying 3 years ago, but didn't end up pulling through with it, with 35-57% and 57-85%. At the time, it would've been top 1/2. The rising player ROZE made quick work of the level, beating it in only a handful of days and 23k attempts. This man is super underrated, being the first victor of Aquamarine, and beating Anathema and Silent Clubstep. It is estimated to be harder than Sakupen Circles but easier than Defeated Circles and Subsuming Vortex. There is also a decorated version in verification. Either way, this level looks insane and it's crazy that these levels aren't even top 10 anymore. This is also evidently not rateworthy and just reminds me of old Aquamarine's drop.ID: 100420930Song: youtube.com/watch?v=aEdiWFHTD48&ab_channel=Dr.Phonics-TopicCreator: kywy.
Open Verification - Gloomy Darkness by RedSkiesMusic | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-15 | Cool extreme demon that stands as an open verification. I like the clean designs and effects. The level as a whole reminds me of Hatred (except polished).ID: 120824559Song: Sidestep AeronCreator: RedSkiesMusicMy upcoming video must be delayed due to some circumstances not relating to the video itself
UltraBreaker by TeamSunOfficial | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-14 | A recently released 1.9 collab by members of TeamSunOfficial with cool deco. It's apparently unbalanced and unfun according to the first victor, but the verifier says it's alright. Very cool overall.

Unrated Hell Gem - The Red Coronation by RyanLC and more | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-13 | An old hell themed level from very late 2.0 with some recognizable creators that was never rated. FunnyGame's part is really cool (what's new?) for the time. The level was honestly ahead of it's time in terms of decoration, as a lot of the decoration here seems to have been used in similar fashions in newer levels like Yatagarasu. Some parts have really nice core decoration and art too. It 100% deserved a feature rating at the time, and would've been one of the hardest levels if verified legit. Ok so apparently it was hacked, verified by Killa last year, but didn't gain much traction despite the numerous big names who commented ID: 28779964Song: youtube.com/watch?v=1Zrq8FiKS6A&ab_channel=Dimrain47MusicCreators: Reple, Koreaqwer, Spearain, 1234, KSWGeo, Ryan LC, Memorzed, DHK2725, FunnyGame, Ryoon, Rustam, Thormode, Cosine, Peach, Anthrax
Unrated Clubstep Remake - Delicious Clubstep by xSmokes and more | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-12 | Feeling lazy today so I'm uploading a formerly list worthy clubstep remake by some popular creators that's been sitting untouched for 3 months in my unlisted levels. It's a fairly average looking level, it's like if Clubstep was an extreme and had more effort into the deco. Nothing much else to say. Oh and of course, it's unrated.ID: 82626356Song: youtube.com/watch?v=VJfU13wIzNoCreators: xSmokes, GDSkele, Kazia, Giron
Gamma - Unnerfed vs Nerfed | Comparison Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-11 | Gamma is one of the longest lasting list demons ever, featuring very nice deco and gameplay for the time. The nerfed fell into the legacy list last year, making it the longest lasting list demon that didn't reach the top 1 spot. The unnerfed however is insane. Almost every single timing is far harder than in the original, with there definitely being several 120 fps frame perfects, maybe around 10. The straightfly sections are way tighter. I don't know which maniac thought a 240 fps frame perfect at the last ship would be a good idea. This will probably never be beaten even though it's not top 1. Top 800 on the ILL. This is much harder than the version Wooshi got 53% and 62-94% on, and the version showcased by MindCap.This is a comparison many thought was not doable thanks to the misaligned parts. I spent about 2 hours fixing the level up so it could be compared. Definitely one of the most annoying comparisons to make, I hope you appreciate it. Longtime viewers of mine know I love this level and have uploaded the unnerfed and the old versions. I once vowed to do this comparison, and here we are.

Top 75 Verified! - Unnerfed Titan Complex by TCTeam | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-11 | Titan Complex was a former top 10, by members of TCTeam, featuring an extremely high object count and very long length for the time. This level is mnown for being a bit inconsistent, but the unnerfed... man is it inconsistent. A lot of little buffs in every part add up to make this way harder than the original.

Atomic Cannon Mk III - Unnerfed vs Update | Comparison Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-10 | The Atomic Cannon series is a super solid series, this one is honestly my least favorite of the four, but it did use 2.2 effects in a great way considering how early into 2.2 it was. I think the level had a relatively low enjoyment rating thanks to chokepoints, so Zeronium verified and released a nerfdate yesterday, the changes of which you can see here.IDs: 104672501 (Update/Nerf), 105847318 (Unnerfed)Song: youtube.com/watch?v=-jszHEXsW50Creators: LIEB, ZeroSR, GironDavid, Frostburn
Spikeless Top 50 Verified! - TrakineS by Laranjoo | Showcase Exiled_Shade 2025-09-09 | TrakineS is a top 50 with pretty unique decoration and quirky gameplay, most notably the fact that it has no spikes. Therefore, a lot of blocks are pushed tightly to make some ridiculous gaps. The small wave parts look like significant chokepoints, literally Thinking Space II gaps. I think it might be a bit higher than what the verifier (MarinerGD) says. Overall not my favorite level of alll time but it's cool. It's somewhat like Based After Based, except no focus is on the duals, rather making as difficult and quirky gameplay as possible. Decent decoration, I know some of the creators kind of well as well.ID: 125788781Song: youtube.com/watch?v=NOV5OCGX7QM&ab_channel=Nandin%7C%7CTheMusicianCreators: Clara, Laranjoo, Kaapzz, Bienamino, MacacoPerfect, Brunexys, fwe and Reyotta
