Your video link does not work. Also, make sure to provide a short description of the level, and tell us about the actual difficulty of the level, not the current rating state in the servers.

GD Cytosine Gameplay - 5/10- The sudden black and red jump orbs aren't fun to play; same applies for the moving and "in your face" like platforms at the ball part.
- As always, the coins could be improved. Try taking a look at Alkali, Nasgubb, and Ferdefunky's levels for inspiration with your coins (they generally place the coin right after a few hard orb timings and/or secret passages if that helps you).
- A few certain transitions can be improved, including the transition with the robot using the dash orb at an angle (around 27%) and the wave - ship transitions at the fast paced drop.
- In fact, don't use dash orbs as a transition in between gamemodes, it's very annoying to get used to and it's not fun at all. Rarely is this ever done right.
- The gravity ship part at 43% poses a huge difficulty spike which is not good; most of the parts in this level are 4 - 6 stars while this certain ship part is around 9 stars - easy demon level.
- The ball part at 50% poses a pretty cool and well executed gimmick with the moving orbs, although this has been done before.
- The moving rubble at the spider part in the drop can obstruct the view of the spider, making it annoying to pass and catching the player off guard.
- You've kept the auto parts in this level to a pretty good length, which is a good thing obviously.
Decoration and Block Design - 6/10- The block design can be a lot more detailed, especially in your parts. I'm being honest, but this level looks like it was made back when 2.1 was just released.
- Don't Fade can be enabled on the custom backgrounds, the block design and the air decoration to make your level just look a tad bit more aesthetically pleasing.
- In some certain parts (the UFO part at 20%) I could see a few pieces of copypasted air decoration (the stars are what I mean)
- The custom backgrounds could be variated a bit better. The two custom backgrounds that are in this level honestly are dragged out for way too long, and that's not a good thing at all.
- The block design can be changed around (or variated) ever so often to make your level just that bit more fresh.
- The arrows at the wave part are a pretty nice addition. The end card isn't that bad either. Keep it up!
- The color combinations aren't that good and can be improved by a lot. This website (link) is a pretty good resource for finding better color combinations and even suggests a few themes that can go with said colour combinations.
Music Sync - 6/10- The music sync in this level can be improved both gameplay wise and block design/decoration wise.
- For gameplay, you're off to a pretty good start by using orbs of all kinds and timing them to certain beats in the music. This is pretty evident in the ball part with the moving orbs.
- The spider part at the beginning could be improved a bit in this aspect by making the taps go with the music.
- However, there are some bleak areas in the decoration and block design aspect that dragged down your score in this department by a tad bit.
- I also thought that the drop was a little bit underwhelming music sync wise.
- The block design could've pulsed and/or flashed in time to the music, and you could even kill two birds with one stone by making the colour of the blocks change to the beats of the music.
- Not much else to say about music sync other than those points.
Final Score - 17/30!
Moving to Decent as I honestly think that this level doesn't belong in the Good section. You do have potential, and I hope you realise that, but your block design and gameplay could be improved and executed a bit better. I could see this level rated, but not anything higher.

@repeater13
Isn't this supposed to be in decent I still see it in the judging panel?
