I like it how this level managed to be glow styled like Zodiac but designed in a specific way that makes it look original despite being glow style. I think it’s due to the smaller but more detailed structures this level has over most glow levels combined with the more minimalistic style with the air deco
The only thing, that makes this level original, is the non-themed-glow style, being executed equally well through out the entire level, so it kinda looks very consistent. It's not very common for glow levels tbh. Other than that, it's just a "pretty good" level. Nothing original though.
@@wirelessomega2 In the entire demon list, I think tidal wave is the best level. It's not about difficulty, but it's about decoration, music, and sync.
So, I hate the fact that Spectre is in #6 spot. I decided to see whether it was in the right spot by doing some tests. Test 1: I watched all top ten Demons, analyzed each click, measured the average difficulty per click times the number of clicks per level, and based on this test, the list would look like this: 1. Tidal Wave 2. Nullscapes 3. Spectre 4. Acheron 5. Abyss of darkness 6. Avernus 7. Tunnel of despair 8. Kyouki 9. Silent Clubstep 10. Slaughterhouse For the second test, I decided to be at each level in practice mode to get a more firm understanding of the level's difficulty. This is the top 10 based of the number of attempts in practice mode. 1. Nullscapes - 5,276 2. Spectre - 4,045 3. Tidal Wave - 3,680 4. Acheron - 3,208 5. Abyss of darkness - 3,139 6. Kyouki - 2,981 7. Silent Clubstep - 2,965 8. Tunnel of despair - 2,932 9. Slaughterhouse - 2,564 10. Avernus - 1,908 For the third and final test, I found several factors that contribute to the level's difficulty ( number of frame perfect clicks, length, attempts to verify, click speed ( how fast you have to click ), and other players' opinions on difficulty ) and created this list of the top 10: 1. Tidal Wave 2. Nullscapes 3. Silent Clubstep 4. Tunnel of despair 5. Acheron 6. Spectre 7. Avernus 8. Slaughterhouse 9. Abyss of darkness 10. Kyouki And, after averaging these three lists with the current list, we get something like this: 1. Tidal Wave - 6 points 2. Nullscapes - 8 points 3. Acheron - 15 points 4. Spectre - 17 points 5. Silent Clubstep - 23 points 6. Tunnel of despair - 26 points 7. Abyss of darkness - 27 points 8. Avernus - 28 points 9. Kyouki - 33 points 10. Slaughterhouse - 37 points Based off my tests, Spectre should place at #4 on the demonlist. This took nine hours to do ( mostly from the practice mode test ), so Spectre had better be moved! If you want Spectre to be moved up, like this comment. Petition to move Spectre to top 4 like this comment and reply with "Spectre"
Wow, that's actually a lot of work put into the placement of a level. Kinda funny how you got over 4k att on Spectre but less than 2k on Avernus. This shows that attempt count ≠ difficulty. We have to consider that gamemodes differ a lot in the Top 10 right now, making it more difficult to place levels, as each player has his/her own skill set and therfore opinions regarding this matter. Personally and as a Mobile Player (reliable?), the current placement seems fine. Top Players seem to agree with that, too.
2:36 my favorite part, the end is just beutiful combined with the song when I saw this level showcase and saw the end, I cry. This jist shows how the game can expand its limits!
Definitely cleaner than Zodiac, though it lacks the feel in some places imo. The part at 1:18 perfectly encapsulated what I think the level was trying to go for, it really feels like its inspired from, but better than zodiac (Juhou's part, which is already good itself)
If you’ve ever listened to the original music (In Circles - Creo) you’d notice that there was a very subtle transition at this part of the music 1:23 compared to the original (which is at 1:48) Try listening to both this level and In Circles at the same, you’ll hear what i mean. Point is, they’re making use of that song trigger in the editor and it’s just so sick how they did it
I’m glad someone noticed! In 2.1 when this level was getting made we used a custom version of the song that cut to the later part of it, anticipating that in 2.2 with a song trigger we would be able to do it without needing the custom song anymore, and sure enough we did.
@@zhwzhwpwqhz Ironically, it has the opposite effect on me. The transition fits so well in spectre that i’ve gotten used to it after watching the level so many times and now it feels really different listening to the original song, like you’re expecting the same build up that’s in Spectre but then it progresses differently. In Circles is still a banger from beginning to end tho, nothing’s changing that.
The nostalgia of this six year old song and sequel to one of the best Top 1 in the history of GD perfectly executed makes Spectre one of the most hyped level at this time. ❤
There are so many callbacks to Zodiac’s gameplay and in their appropriate places, like the slopes in Dudex’s, the spider swingcopter in Osiris’s, the wave in Pennutoh’s, and the one ship at 1:18! Fascinating!
It’s those parts that make it a ZODIAC sequel. It’s sad to see all the other parts that don’t fit, so in my opinion, it’s sadly not worthy of a ZODIAC sequel😢
The best way to describe Spectre is the "brother" to Zodiac, and I really appreciate that it has its own personality while still being faithful to the original Personally, the parts at 1:18 and 1:44 are the best examples of this
kinda wished it would be top 1 like zodiac, it would definitely be the best looking modern top 1 thid game has ever seen. but even if its not top. still probably the best top 10 hardest level
Don’t know what I feel about this. The decoration and gameplay looks stunning but I also notice that the parts just don’t really flow well together decoration wise. One minute it’s this and then it’s that for a bit then it goes to thisv2 then back to this and then back to that. It definitely looks like a Zodiac sequel both gameplay and decoration wise though. Keep up the great work!
I think the disassociation of the parts (ex culucs and darwins being very different) makes the level even more like zodiac. For instance, samifyings part was nothing deco-wise like tmn’s. It brings back some of the original in a way and i like it
Im not even kidding when u say this but this is my fav upcoming top 1/3 rn. it realls deserves the title of the Zodiac sequel. plus the gameplay is awesome ane dont get me started on the deco or the song.
thus level’s song tastes like carrots in the best way possible I don’t have synthestista it just kinda feels like if the song was an actual food, it’d taste like carrots
Damn, this looks good, inlike it, inlove zodiac but this is great too, not sure if its gonna beat zodiac for me in terms of things but only time will tell
I’ve known about and waited for this level for over a year and it’s absolutely everything I could ever want. The decoration, the gameplay, all modernized but still keeping the same feeling as Zodiac. (Also Xander doesn’t want this to be the official sequel, I think he wants it to be the official remake instead)
This is incredible 15/10. Masterpiece. I want this to be the new top 1 more than anything. There is not a signal fault with this level. It could be the best sequel in GD history. Flawless.
Honestly one of the best sequels in the game. The subtle deco and gameplay references make it actually a banger sequel instead of just another unrelated level with a similar sounding song.
