Collab or Solo?
Gameplay - 6/10
The gameplay here is really unique for how easy it is. However, one major flaw that I noticed in your level is that you only majorly use 3 gamemodes, those being cube, UFO, and ship, but other than the occasional gravity portals and the ball part at the end, that was it.., no wave, or even robot. The coins were also unoriginal and lazy, using a key to get the coin. On the other hand, I liked the ship part at the drop (30 - 42%), because of the way you used everything a ship can do, such as using orbs, and just even good old flying. Another good part was the end of the last ship because slopes were used to make gameplay. Overall, the gameplay was good in some parts but could've been improved with more variety.
Effects - 5.5/10
The effects match with the gameplay, needing more variety. There were some examples of copypaste I could find, including the honeycombs, the arrows used for the portals and the 'orbs'. The custom background had a nice touch to it, but like the other effects, it was copypasted throughout the whole level. The rings you used for the sawblades at the end were the only thing I could find that weren't copypasted. There really isn't much to say here because the effects in this level are so limited. But again, the effects need more variety, but don't go as far as to copypaste, at the maximum, copypaste for 1 part of the level only.
Sync + Music - 7/10
I have to admit, the music you chose is practically perfect for this type of level, with both the music and the level being jumpy and colorful. But like every level, the sync isn't perfect. 1 area for improvement when it comes to sync are the last UFO parts (50% onwards) and the ship part at the drop (30 - 42%), they just felt shallow and weak compared to the rest of the level. The other parts of the level syncing to the beat was a good idea, and it changed the level in my eyes. The best aspect of the level by far! 
Block Design - 6.5/10
The block design is actually really individual (or unique) in this level (other than the fact that it looks like a layout in some places). The chains at the start of the level really looked lifelike, or animated. The color changes during the level were neatly executed, but in some places, the color of the spikes contradicted with the color of the blocks but overall, a really cool and unprecedented concept!
Total Score - 25/40!
You really have potential! Keep on making levels and eventually, you'll be noticed! This should go into mid end Good, but it's really up to the Level Judges to decide!
Difficulty -  5 stars
And lastly, just a checklist for what to improve on for the future!
- Improve your variety!
- Try not to copypaste as much
- Work on coin placement in your levels
- Be consistent with your music sync (all UFO parts from 50% onwards)

I am going to approve this review. However, I am moving this to Decent. You made a review out of 40, my reviews are out of 100 so they give an accurate rating. To get 40 to 100 you multiply by 2.5. 25 x 2.5 = 62.5. 62.5/100 to me makes it to Decent. I will say that this was very generous, but this iI more of a decent level. |
