"MANIC" (Demon) by BowtieGD, bli, CynixX & more | Geometry Dash 2.11
1,515I've always been a big fan of futuristic themes, and MANIC does that pretty well. It's based in a city from start to finish judging from the backgrounds. The colors go along nicely too, featuring a lot of darker colors at first, and then more of a neon vibe towards the end. After reading the description of BowtieGD's video, it's supposed to start out in modern times and then end up in a futuristic city, which makes sense color-wise. I didn't really think of that while playing personally, though; I thought it was all supposed to be a futuristic city, with the first part being on the outskirts, hence the darker colors.
The decoration of this level is done by 4 different people, and I'd say they all did a good job considering the theme explained above. All the parts definitely feel at home. My favorite part is probably the first due to how good the background is, and the block design and structuring goes along nicely without being too much on top of the background. I'd love to see some of the other backgrounds be a bit more clear and/or detailed too. Overall, though, they all did a good job.
As for the gameplay, I can't say I'm a huge fan. It may be the mix of decoration and gameplay, but it ended up a little frustrating to play for me. Some parts ended up being more memory-based than I think was intended. In particular, I'm talking about the part at 0:39. There's way too many invisible speed changers and portals, making it difficult to sightread. In general, I think it's always a bad design choice to make those objects invisible. Aside from this part, it was okay to play. It's a very fast-paced level, and it's satisfying to play when you beat it, but dying to invisible things that have a huge effect on gameplay just feels unfair. All in all, I think this will be a Featured Medium Demon.
