This was such an experience to pull off, also it's cool that this is the first legit video of this whole saga on RU-vid so yeah pretty much that.
I'll give my opinion on specifically every level below but as an overall opinion I can say this is such a great saga, it has of course a lot of flaws cause, as I could tell, these levels were barely playtested and balanced, but even like that the final product got to be pretty decent and playable. I would give this saga in general a 7/10, definetly enjoyable but the execution is kinda disappointing (which I can understand since this saga, specially the first levels of it, is very old, but still).
---------------------------------------------------------------
Plasma Pulse
This level is overall fun, it's simple but also cool to play and decently fun, specially considering the time that this level was done at. I guess it's somewhat unbalanced due to the first wave but unless you're beating it as a hardest demon I think you'll be able to pass it consistently.
7.5/10
---------------------------------------------------------------
Plasma Pulse II
Probably the worst of the saga, it's not extremely bad but it has some merely dumb parts such as the wave at the drop, specially the last part of it before the ufo, which is good and bad at the same time, it's fun to play but luck based and annoying. Decoration-wise I like it very much to be honest. That 2.0 glowy style will never get old for me, I guess I mostly like it cause it's kinda nostalgic to me but yeah, pretty cool style.
6/10
---------------------------------------------------------------
Plasma Pulse III
I had SUCH a bad time with this one, first of all I had to rebeat it since I "fixed a bug" that in the end turned out not to be a bug but me doing it wrong. The thing is I realized that after beating it for the first time so I had to rebeat it and I had such a stupid luck, I can't recall the specific percentages I died at right now but they were a lot and very stupid. Leaving aside the bad luck I had I can say that this level is good; I'm not a huge fan of the decoration but it's not bad at all and the gameplay is in general fun to play, also it gets very consistent from 0 so that's a good thing; nevertheless this level has a horrible balancing. Nothing to add, just an ass awful balancing.
8/10
---------------------------------------------------------------
Plasma Pulse Finale
Probably the best of the saga, at least in my opinion.
I really liked the way Giron and Smokes pulled off an XL level since this is the first and only long level of the saga. It has some annoying choke points at the start and also getting to the 2nd half, but nothing too bad. The gameplay is very fun specially for the kind of level it is, the balancing is surprisingly good considering how bad their prequels are in that aspect.
Decoration-wise I have no complaints, the "techno" style is amazingly executed and it has excellent colors and design, not much to add since I'm not a creator but yeah, as a player I loved it.
9/10
---------------------------------------------------------------
So this is it, Plasma Pulse saga, thaks for watching and as I say at the end of the video let me know if you would like to see more saga videos like this.
