Gameplay: 9/12
For a "harder" difficulty level, it uses quite a few interesting gameplay mechanics such as the very first jump, the moving objects in the beginning, and the dual UFO. These enhanced the gameplay and made it a bit more unique. In terms of gameplay, your ship and ball sections were great. I especially enjoyed the gameplay in the last few bits. You took a risk with the wave sections by adding a bit more complexity than the average harder level, but it turned out pretty good. I do have a few complaints however. My largest complaint is with the transitions. I'm not going to criticize you for portal transitions, but you should at least give some reaction time so you don't die immediately after a portal. Nothing annoys players more. Examples: 18 %, 10%, etc. The green orb placement in the first ball is a bit off. Make them further apart.
Design: 7/10
The beginning was very dissapointing. I understand you tried something new, but it looked like a big mess. The first wave looked very bad too. You used plain black and no real design. I would redo the design for the beginning. I didn't like the straight wave section, it looked a bit bland and didn't fit with the theme. I didn't notice any lack of cornerpieces :/ I really liked 60% and up. It was perfect in my opinion. The UFO part and 3rd wave stood out to me a lot
Deco + Effects: 5/8
The section you need the most improvement on by far. Some sections like the first wave were almost completely undecorated, and therefore looked empty. The purpose of decoration is to make a level look good, and the beginning did not look good so there is definetely a problem with the deco. The rest looks great though. No effects, so I'm not judging that.
Music Sync: 5/5
Perfect! Flashes, beating objects, transition sync... All I could ask for!!
Bonus: 5/5
I really really liked the level, especially that you focused on the gameplay
Overall: 31/40
= 77%
Low feature worthy
Not moving this because of the other reviews
