    I wanted to make this video for a while ever since LIMBO won the gd awards but I lost my motivation over and over again after I got demonetized, so if you'd like to show your support for the channel while also wielding an intimidating dorito with a smiley face you can help by buying my plushie!

    It's interesting that the reason you decided to choose memory style was mainly to make the level as intimidating as possible. I always thought the idea of limbo stemmed from being a memory level, but it's interesting that that wasn't really the case, and it makes sense in terms of return 0 as well. Really cool video

    Limbo is one or THE BEST or Top 10 ever created. This shows how these levels are meant to be executed. Exploring the level itself, finding the little secrets, the adventure of the level itself, and what makes the level stand out from the rest. You made a huge risk in creating an extreme demon that no one has ever seen, and you and everyone else nailed it out of the park. This level is a GREAT example of pulling off a fun, amazing Top 10. As well as a level to remember. Congrats on making this masterpiece!

      How. It's just a generic "test all skills" level, not memory or even memory based. 10s of memory gameplay in a 2 minutes level doesn't justify it as a "memory level that's harder than a 3 minutes level full of memory based gameplay".

    From the very first few previews of Limbo I was captivated by its uniqueness and ingenuity, and now all these years later it's still one of the craziest, most outstanding levels in the game. It's not just an intimidating challenge, it's a true work of art too. Limbo (and your all your other projects) have made you my favorite creator, and I look forward to seeing what other projects you do in the future :)
    Thank you for including my comment in your video! It was a pleasant surprise :O
    PS. The Limbo sweatshirt is awesome! I was one of the first hundred or so people to buy it and the prints are still fairly high quality after several washes. I'm seriously thinkin about preordering the little dorito too

  • @archiemacdonald8409
    @archiemacdonald8409 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I love how innovative and unique this level is. Instead of just being the usual top demon with tight ship, wave and timings, Limbo focuses on completely different skills that most top players are not so comfortable with, especially the key maze, it requires skills that no other top demon will test you on. Limbo is easily one of the best levels ever created and I hope it inspires more creators to think outside the box like Mindcap did and build more original, unique and never seen before styles of levels to bring more variety to the game.

    putting aside nostalgia, progression in the community and legacy, i think LIMBO may very well be the best level in the entire game. taking a concept that's difficult to understand with an ending that's entirely skill-based and can't be relied on with muscle memory is absolutely incredible. I used to say levels like zodiac were the best because they're so accessible despite being hard, or levels like brainfugd were the best because of how much they pushed the game's limitations, but i think this is my new answer. you did an incredible job on this, and it really shows. let's hope your next projects don't fall in the shadow of LIMBO.
