Each layer of Eversion actually has a title. And i believe it's meant to reflect stages of the mind slowly losing sanity. The stages are: Layer 1 - Eversion Layer 2 - Deception Layer 3 - Erosion Layer 4 - Desolation Layer 5 - Apprehension Layer 6 - Confusion Layer 7 - Commotion Layer 8 - Induction If you notice, the tone, music, and feel of each level seems to actually pressure and push the player slowly into thinking "It can't get worse then this..."

But from world 5 onward, things are moving again but are increasingly demonic the further down you go. So what you said about world 4 being a turning point makes sense
@@h.9119 For me, Layer 4 is meant to be the one that basically tells you something is wrong. Eversion is the illusion of a cutesy platformer. Deception is the start of realizing something is off. Erosion is the feel that it is strange and unnatural. Desolation begins to give you a feeling of anxiety; especially with how off and strange toned the music is. When it picks up, it gives the feeling that something is following, or watching you. Each layer slowly builds itself upon making the player feel more tense and more on end with themself. Because it goes from a happy, innocent platformer; but everything about the layers, and the music, and sounds begin to paint a different picture making it feel so much worse as you go. The point is to give the player this strange puzzle of "It can't get any worse then this... right?" Apprehension is when the illusion is basically pulled from the game, and it doesn't even try to hide what it's doing anymore. Everything, from the music, to the demonic hands tell you; it's not going to get better... it's only getting worse from here on out.
And, of course, the ending is probably acceptance. It’s the only time the character actually walks toward the princess, so they probably realized what their true form was all along. Thanks for saving them! That sugary form was uncomfortable for the player character. 😃
