This series of videos is of an excellent 3D platformer game called Marble Blast Ultra, by GarageGames. I won't necessarily get the best times possible in these videos, just good times.

You may notice that these levels don't look like they would on the Xbox 360: that's because this is a port of the game that I found on the internet. Links given when requested.

Advanced levels is where the difficulty curve began. And, for like, one second, before dropping again.

Slick Slide and Ordeal are both almost completely unchanged levels, though on Ordeal, I had to save the speed booster as I couldn't make the jump to the other side without it, since they added a blockade.

Daedalus is a half-reused level. Half of the level being old, and half of it completely new, though the idea of the level is pretty much the same. You can see the old part of the level around thirty seconds into it.

Survival of the Fittest and Ramps Reloaded are back, and easier than ever!

Cube Root is a new level that I rarely play, though I still managed to find a quick path through it anyway.

Scaffold and Acrobat are reused in this game, though Acrobat doesn't have the launcher and you have to do some DIY super speed shit to launch yourself yourself.

It's pretty easy to endure Endurance, as after playing Darwin's Dilemma and Natural Selection so many times from the previous game, this is a piece of cake.

Battlements and Three-Fold Maze are both back in this game, which no difficulty added (and maybe a bit removed)!

Half-Pipe Elite, like its predecessor, has the same idea from the previous game, but is completely different in its level design.

Will o' Wisp is mostly the same in this game, the exception being the moving platforms and buttons replaced by ramps. Under Construction is also back here, and in my opinion, the shortcut is easier to pull off in this game.

Extreme Skiing isn't that extreme anymore, as I already mastered this level in the previous game. Three-Fold Race is also pretty easy, and the same with King of the Mountain.

Thankfully, the time travel on the scaffold, tornado, and floating mines are removed in this version of Natural Selection, and they give you a free super jump to make up for it! Wow!

I still hate Schadenfreude, though. It's actually harder in this game for some reason, though I can't seem to think why.

Anyways, some levels here are actually pretty challenging: which are only the ones reused from the previous game. All others should be moved to Intermediate, and all Intermediate levels along with the ones moved into Intermediate to Beginner.
