"Unnamed 7" by Shocksidian

Okay so I read the review and I'm somewhat disappointed. NOT because you didn't like the level, it's obviously rushed as I usually create levels in 2 months as appose to 3 days for this (and I didn't deco shit just because I know RobTop features anything nowadays), but I am disappointed in the quality of this review. It's just crap. So I decided to review your review in the hope that you could next time improve them or something.

Lets start off with some general things that I noticed: I saw how you judge the level by the catagories "decoration", "gameplay" (gameplay is one word, 'game play' like you said is wrong) and "block design". Judging in catagories is a good way to break down an.d judge a level IMO so you did that nicely, but what does not make sense to me is that on the first two parts (and the 5th) you only judged "decoration" and "gameplay", on the third and fourth all the catagories but on the last not any?? Please be consistent with how you make these, even the order differenciates per part of the review, all it does is make you seem extremely unprofessional. Some other general thing is how you devided the level into parts. You first break down the parts per 10 seconds or so which is good, but then suddenly you take a 20 second part to review, and finally almost 30 seconds?? And considering the last paragraph is the shortest of all and supposed to represent 1/3 of the entire level it just does not make sense to me. If you start off by doing it detailed then finish doing it detailed. Lastly this was just the most confusing review I have ever read because you don't say to what part you are referring exactly when you say, for example, "The black blocks look bad but later its better", especially if it's about a 30 second long part that has sooo many black blocks.

Now I'll give my opinion on every single paragraph of your review part by part.

0:00 - 0:10

It seems kind of blank here. The only effect I see is a minor effect which is the decoration pulsing. If there was some more decoration added then this beginning could have been better. The blocks at 0:07 look alright but it is better than having a huge slope filled with black blocks. The game play is alright for a beginning. Overall this part is blank.

Decoration - 2/10

Game play - 3/10


So you start off with a ten second part which, like I said, is good. Then you instantly start about effects. I don't know if you are failliar with the terms "effect" and "design" and how they are generally used in the community but I have never made any effects in a Geometry Dash level in my life and I don't intend to do so. If the part looks boring then just say it's boring. Don't get it wrong. You didn't point out how I misspelled my name as "Shokc". I'm starting to doubt if you even took a close look at the level.

0:11 - 0:20

If the pulse on the blocks went to the beat then it could have been better. The custom spikes with the glowing things on them look pretty good. There doesn't seem to be any decoration here besides those random blocks and arrows. The clouds that are on the saws seem out of place due to the color of it. The blocks are pretty good but if there was like some kind of complex design or major effect for the block then that could have been amazing! The game play is fun but not like exhilarating.

Decoration - 2/10
Game play - 3.5/10

So you point out how you think the pulses would have been better if they were synced to the beat. This is unrelated to the quality of your review but I personally think that pulsating colours/whatever to the melody is more creative and looks better than to the beat, and it's more effort to create and sync. And if there is anything I appreciate in a level it is the effort put into it! I did not put effort in this level so I wasn't expecting it to get a good review lol. But about how you reviewed it again now. I am unsure if you realise what "...besides those random blocks and arrows." those blocks are meant to be. The black glow gives the effect of it being layered, so the darker blue holes are, holes. You need to look at it for a while to understand so I'll just have to assume you did not. Or I'm misunderstanding and you did get it but you should have mentioned it then. Again you start about effects, and complex designs now too. The thought of you being majorly biased is crossing my mind.

0:21 - 0:30

Those blocks that are used for decoration are pretty well placed ,but It is still pretty blank. The block design is something really simple that isn't anything amazing. The block designs I consider amazing are the ones with complex designs or effects. At 0:25 it all changes though. The block design has something that is pretty good. Although the spikes that look like grass don't look right there. The spikes inside the blocks look pretty good though. The decoration is still pretty blank though. Kind of looked like you focused more on the block design more than the decoration. The game play is alright.

Decoration - 2/10

Block Design - 4/10

Game play - 3/10

First thing I otice is wrong punctuation ("...placed ,but...") but I'll assume its a typo. AGAIN the effects and complex designs, sure it's supposed to be YOUR opinion but really, there are tons of great levels that have neither effects nor complex designs. There are more creators than Serponge and Manix. Totally agree about the bushy spikes by the way but thats unrelated. Two sentences that end with "though" in a row, it doesn't read nicely. 

0:31 - 0:36

Those pink deformed balls look out of place. If there was more decoration here it could have looked better. The block design is kind of weird. The slopes look weird because the same block isn't under it so it looks out of place. The game play is fun though ,kind of annoying but fun. It is quite blank here and could use some kind of complex design to look better.

Block design - 2/10

Decoration - 3/10

Game play - 4.5/10

Okay and again you fail to understand the usage of black glow. "The slopes look weird because the same block isn't under it so it looks out of place." just indicates how you didn't evne bother to make sense of the block design. Its supposed to look like its layered. The black glow is a shadow. Please just look at it for 5 seconds and understand it, I expect the judges to be capable of understanding the basic Geometry Dash creation tricks before writing a review. Punctuation at "...though ,kind..." is wrong again, another typo?

0:37 - 0:56

The block design here is amazing! I love the black slopes you used. The three dimensional breakable blocks look amazing. The block design looks better. The game play is way more better here. The only thing that needs improvements is the decoration but it seems like you focused more on the block design. The black and white blocks look out of place because of its color if you used different colors then it could have been better.

Block design - 6.5/10

Game play - 5/10

Now the timing go weird, 20 seconds part but a paragraph the same size as others? That points to less detailed judging compared to the other paragraphs which is just random inconsistency in the review. "...is way more better here." Way more better... Just no. Well maybe you just don't speak english very well but it bothers me anyway. You say the block design is "amazing" but the score is a 6.5/10? Maybe I'm just too used to the dutch grading system but we have 5.5 as a neutral grade, being just good enough but still not good. A 6 would be decent but still far from amazing. A 6.5 is barely any different. I noticed that strange scale earlier aswell but here it's very clear to why it's wrong. About half your scale is above "amazing". Doesn't make sense at all.

0:57 - END

The block design is really good. The game play is pretty fun but the jitterclick isn't fun because it is annoying. The lines that go to the blocks look pretty good. The decoration seems like it isn't really focused on but if it was then it could have been way better. The problem here is kind of the color combination such as at the ending. Not really much to say about this level.

You take A THIRTY SECOND PART and write THE SHORTEST PARAGRAPH about it. What? Also you do not tell me what part you mean when you say "The game play is pretty fun but the jitterclick isn't fun because it is annoying.", it can be anywhere in the 30 seconds damnit. It's so extremely confusing and dumb. Also you don't give a rating out of 10 for the last third of the level? Seems odd to me. I see how you don't have anything to say about it. You just didn't put any effort in the review.

All in all, you really are not capable of writing a decent review or just didn't do it for some reason. I would highly reccomend the level judge leaders to get better people or just do it themselves. I did not write this because I'm triggered about the low rating of my level, I am highly disappointed by the quality of this review. I also have no personal issues with the person that wrote this. My level was rushed af and I dont mind it being rated like this. I mind the retarded review though.


I sincirely hope you can learn from this, 


kind regards, Shocksidian
