So... IMO VPC4 Repeater+ is quite possibly the most difficult non-Boss VPC4 level in the entire game to S+. Not because of the enemies... but because of the level behavior. ^^;
Repeater and Repeater+ have a limited number of floor tiles, so the more spread out the enemies are, the more restrictive the paths to get to them will be. Even in VPC1, this can cause problems, if one uses the same strategies one has been using for most of the other levels in the game (which of course, most players (including me) will tend to do when encountering this level for the first time)! Thus, similar to Collider, Repeater tends to be a level that a good number of players will have struggles with, because of the way it kind of requires adjusting your base strategies...
In the case of Repeater, perhaps the most important adjustment to make is that if you have to retreat from a dangerous situation, you shouldn't retreat quite as far as you might want to... and if you have to retreat from multiple dangerous situations, you shouldn't retreat in the same direction each time... even if it's the safest direction available! Which definitely takes some getting used to! ^^;
Once you do get used to this, however, the level won't be quite as bad... at least, in VPC1. In VPC4, however, there are significantly more enemies... but there aren't significantly more floor tiles to accommodate them, so... ^^;;
In addition, if you've played both Repeater and Repeater+, you've probably noticed that some of the wall patterns in Repeater+ seem to have been designed slightly more maliciously to block more movement and attack paths, so... ^^;;;
Anyway, that's more or less why I think VPC4 Repeater+ might be the most difficult non-Boss VPC4 level in the game to S+. At the very least, given the amount of trouble it's given me over the years... it's certainly felt like the most difficult to me!
Anyway, every once in a while, I've been returning to VPC4 Repeater+ to give it another try... making some progress, but not enough to get to the end with the Chain intact... then eventually deciding to set it aside for another time...
Which is what I was expecting to happen this time as well, but...
Long story short... I finally got the S+! =)
So anyway, here it is, my first ever VPC4 Repeater+ S+! Hope you enjoy!
