1:43 If I were to playtest a level and change it, it would be Deadly Clubstep. I beat it a while ago for the GDDP, and it was miserable. I died at the 79% ship around 10 times, and it just feels janky from the second drop onward. It is the least fun I’ve ever had beating a demon.
Att 3:49 you can crtl + z to undo which makes this process so much less painful. Also shift and wasd does small steps (idk what they're called) and at the last page of the options at the top right in the pause menu in the editor (impossible to find fr) there's an option to make scaling go from 0.25x to 4x which makes buffs and especially nerfs nicer cuz you can just scale spikes/saws down past 0.5.

You are CRIMINALLY underrated… like how do you make such high quality, entertaining videos while only having 3k subs?? Everyone sub to this man! Love your content dude, keep doing what you’re doing.
This is a really cool concept, some levels are really cool for me its the hell world but obviously there is some stupid parts and making them better really tickles my fancy or whatever the saying is
@WoofelGD I’ve been avoiding hypersonic like the plague but eventually I’ll get around to it and then enhance it. I might even do an episode on the entire sonic series. I’m glad you liked it!
i would like to see this as a series and maybe even beat a few of these on my own time because i really agree with the fact that it takes a little playtesting for a level to truly be great
also for those small steps, hold shift and press wasd (any of the keys in the direction you want), if you do it without shift it also moves it by 1 block
havent beaten it yet, but reverie has a few dumb clicks, and there are a few clicks throughout ocular miracle that are funny. also, bloodbath. michigun has no need to be as hard as it is
@PokeDasher2.2 In future episodes I’ll definitely work with levels where there will be changes to base gameplay rather than just straight nerfs. The issue with these levels is that buffing anything would make them genuinely awful. I wasn’t worried about maintaining the difficulty, just making them more consistent and enjoyable
Watching you just throw Sunset Sandstorm in the trash viscerally hurt me 😭 I beat it as a hardest in July and it’s still one of my favorite levels of all time, although for some reason I’ve just always had the ability to not get mad at levels because of stupidly long or hard (or both) predrops. Couldn’t tell you why if I was given a billion tries. In all seriousness, the last 25% of Blade of Justice is without question one of the worst parts in any level I’ve ever played and it dropped the enjoyment from somewhere in the high 90s STRAIGHT down to the low 50s. It’s such an awfully designed section and I have absolutely no idea how I only died there one time from 0. Just fixing the transitions from 86-100 would make it SO MUCH BETTER
Some people love sunset sandstorm and unfortunately I am not one of them😭 I am heavily considering putting boj in a future episode though bc I love that level so much but there are some pretty clear changes I could make
I beat 4 extremes: 1st Cataclysm 2nd Allegiance 3rd Bloodbath 4th Acu and the worst is Allegiance so how to echance Allegiance -nerf the 35% ball timing -nerf robot jumps at 61% -remove last yellow orb at 67% fix bugs at dual -fix the transition at 91%
There's only a few levels that need this but the level that needs to be enhanced the most is definitely disruption by ka1sa, i literally only beat it cause its low on the aredl and "skill based" but literally 70% of my deaths were to bugs/poorly made gameplay, for example the level ends at 85% but 80-85 is literally only buffer orbs but theres just a 50/50 chance that you die to one of the green orbs because you have to transition from a ship correctly to pass it and it sucks cause the base gameplay is pretty fun its just so corrupt with bugs (okay that's enough yap about this level)
1:43 hana the medium demon its so horribly playtested you can skip like half the portals and theres some clicks that belong in a level the difficulty of acu
I can name several horrible levels that need to be fixed: (not all horrible levels some just have horrible parts) Spectral Tentation Dear Nostalgists Hypersonic Supersonic Misty Moutains Deadlocked v2 by Dasher Artificial Dream Zettabyte Infrared Ultraviolet Y Dust Storm Rabb2t Zafari Stereo Demoness Back on Mountain
Ecstasy by filqh is a good level but has some chokepoints that I think were not really needed so it probably was my least favorite completed extreme even though it is good, its just that the others are better
My least favorite extremes I've beaten are black Blizzard and removed submission but their base gameplay just sucks I don't think any amount of play testing could fix them lmao
in 2.1 there were definitely some changes I could have made to enhance blbl but in 2.2 there isn't much you can do. that type of gp was not made for 2.2 physics
@@oish6684 I was considering it but there are a few parts that I don’t have a clear vision for yet. I’ll need some more time to think about how I want to change some things
You should quit forever. Nah seriously I feel basically every harder extreme would be MUCH better if it was nerfed ever so slightly. Spikes on structures in nc levels is a kick in the balls 99% of the time, so you did good for removing a large portion of them lol
the base gp in arctic is so easy compared to the version on the server. If I got rid of every bit of artificial difficulty it would pass as an easy extreme and would honestly be pretty fun
NGL you should make this a series Tria, this was very entertaining
I’m glad you liked it!
I agree

if bloodbath was made during an era where they cared AT ALL about balancing it would be 80x better than it is rn
riot always prioritizes difficulty over enjoyment which is fair bc the levels he's usually involved in are projected to be towards the top of the list

1:43 100% Red World. Rn its super unbalanced and I would be curious to see how a balanced Red World (around Acu difficulty) would look like

- Remove ggboy’s entire part
- Nerf the 59% wave as 2.2 made it really hard
