First thoughts Well, at the beginning it looked feature worthy, but at the same time I thought, this isn't original. But that wouldn't be a problem. I really liked the custom background in the beginning. Then later in the level everything started to get really repetitive. Copy-paste all over the place, same design's re-used. Like at the first wave. Not only do the obstacles not look really good, it's also copy-pasted everywhere. Combining this with the un-original designs, I didn't really like it. The blocks also seem to be under-decorated. Overall the level looks extremely boring to me at a first look.
Decoration Well, at the beginning as I said earlier, it looks almost perfect. The nice blending design (Which is unoriginal but still nice), with little deco, and nicely designed blocks and the custom background, makes it look really good. One little thing that did caught my eye was some missed deco on the gravity portals. Why didn't you (?) use some spinning deco on it? Looks boring to me without deco. Also, there are no flashes, color changes. Would look much better if u used them. I also like the arrows in the corridor transition. I would let them fade away after, but isn't needed ofcourse. But at the wave part.. meh.. The block design on that part doesn't really look nice in my opinion. And to even make it worse, it's copy pasted everywhere. There are also almost no flashes, color changes etc. And once again, there are no spinning decoration on the portals, and why are there green big portals in there? And the rotating sawblade's, don't really like them. So yea, that's a pretty dissapointing part to be honest. And for the next part it's exactly the same. Just boring designs, no color/bg changes, no color/bg flashes. A level really looks boring if it only has one color at a time in it. At the ball part... U use a different design!! But still boring. No color changes etc, which makes everything look boring. And for the rest of the parts, the designs just start repeating again, which is not a good thing. I don't think I have anything else to say, the i'll just keep repeating what I say if the designs keep repeating.
Gameplay/Sync The gameplay at the beginning seems to be normal, nothing special about it. It has some nice sync with the music, which is nice. Because if it doesn't have sync with the juming/orbs/pads, it's just feels really weird. At the wave part, the gameplay begins to get repetitive and boring. Up down up down up down.. Where's the fun in that? There is some sync with the portals though, which is a good thing. To me it's important if wave/ship parts sync with portals, it doesn't only makes it easier, it also makes it more fun. At the ship, once again standard gameplay, but it does have once again some nice sync. I always like it when the coin syncs with the music. I love the ball part sync too. Gameplay at that part isn't too special though. UFO part is REALLY boring. It really should be improved. It's also just a copy of an earlier part, that really doesn't fit in with the UFO gameplay. No sync at all, not good gameplay. The wave part after that, too, is just a copy of the ship part earlier. The x2 speed mixed with wave and tight spaces, can be really annoying, try to do something about the copied gameplay. The parts from now on, are just not synced at all, which they should be. So, the first part of gameplay was okay, later on, not very good. Overall, was not very amazed.
Last thoughts My final thoughts are, the level should REALLY be improved. Boring design, boring gameplay at some places. The level just gets repetitive in every single way. So, I think this should belong in Needs Improvement.

Nice Review Hey, nice review, however, this board is not for reviews. When people specifically post them here, they don't want the level to be reviewed by a judge, unless they misplaced the location of their thread. If you want to review a level, check out the "Judging Panel" board Edit: Ignore that, I just realized you didn't actually rate the level. My bad but seriously though, that was a pretty good review

Sorry for not understanding ;_; It's fine I'm sorry for confusing you. The "Level Suggestions" is a board where users just upload their levels for people to see, and not be judged/reviewed. There's nothing wrong with giving some tips for the user in this board, but if you are looking into judging, you'll want to go through the "Judging Panel" board. That board is specifically for reviewing and rating
