Zatsupachi, they of the infamous Yggdrasil, has a better result this time around! Although, there are ways it could have been better. For me, the score attack thing isn't a big deal - I can enemy grind well enough! But there's some really funky behaviors with some of the stage anatomy and enemies, to the point where the level feels very questionably stable. And I missed a LOT of secrets here, but several of them feel nigh impossible to get.
One possible reason for this: allegedly, Zatsu did not let ANYONE playtest their level. Flashman's last comment looms large in nature of this - there are a number of issues here which probably could have been caught and fixed if sufficient playtesting had been done.
Honestly, the execution is still decent in spite of that, and it's an interesting twist on things! I enjoyed the stage for what it was, while still wishing a few things were better.
