So here's the fun bits; I haven't played this game in a long while with consistency and the intent of getting better again until about a month ago, where GDDP sounded interesting and I beat all the beginner demons, most of the bronzes, and some of the silver demons. Some rebeats too, but that helped a bit with really getting back into the game. I felt confident enough to take on an Amber demon (Arcane) and got most of the way there, but my PC is slightly aged now so it has consistent frame rate issues with levels above about 150k objects and really detailed images. Regardless, Artificial Ascent came up at one point and I started really giving it a whirl 10 days ago.

Artificial Ascent is a level I've wanted to beat for a while because I've loved the design and it's definitely easier than Digital Descent, which I also want to go through at some point not too long after this demon. I didn't think I would be making progress on the level as quickly as I am, considering this is day 10 of progress (I started on May 20th), and I'm only about 3600 attempts into practice. This doesn't sound at all like an alignment for someone who's hardest demon is Bloodbath five and a half years ago, but I just feel better at the game than I did once upon a time. I'm incredibly happy with what I've been able to do so far and I really do think I can get this demon done before too much longer. I want to have it done by mid-June, and I'm well on track to getting it done even sooner than that. The only progress I need to make anymore with this level is hammering down consistency with the beginning 28%, then feeling good from Loogiah (44%) onwards. If I could get relatively consistent at parts beyond that, especially Abstract, Etzer, and Serponge, I feel like I have a solid chance at getting through this.

I've been loving progress so far and I want to keep pursuing this accomplishment.
