Jump n pray

[hushed fable]

[hushed fable]

halfway through

[hushed fable]

very cool use of one-way boxes, I much prefer this to "clip into this box within 0.4 seconds or die"

[hushed fable]

and then it got followed up by this pile of gutter trash

this tab's got some real highs and lows

[topaz gulch]

thats what happens when you try to experiment with gameplay 😔

[hushed fable]

fair enough, haha

[gritty wedge]

FUN FACT - don't forget to watch family guy sunday night

[hushed fable]

the challenges are really well-balanced (far more than in REDUX anyway), it's just that the experiments sometimes blow up in my face

[hushed fable]

this level represents the dichotomy of this tab so bad it hurts

incredibly well-designed avoidance challenge vs. pure lottery

though a lot of it is admittedly bitterness that challenges like the latter take me 200 attempts despite how long I've played

[topaz gulch]

eh dont worry i sucked at them too

the only reason why i did that other challenge is because i thought i was clever with coming up with it lmao

[hushed fable]

this level feels like it was made for me

there's a weird path in my brain where monotony wraps back around to being engaging, and this challenge scratched that itch

big "dying of boredom is real" vibes, I loved it

[topaz gulch]

lmao

i like these kind of maps too tbh

[hushed fable]

I'd speedrun the challenge if not for the toggles in the top-right, they're a little bit session-ruining

though they add pressure to the rest of the challenge, so I kinda love and hate them

[hushed fable]

thank fuck the challenge here went like 30x quicker than all-gold

geneva convention was about to not like me if I had to keep playing this

[topaz gulch]

i like how this maps decoration doesnt even work cuz theres too many objects lol

[cold quartz]

We call that the nexter classic

[hushed fable]

tough but fair all around, really liked this one

[hushed fable]

[topaz gulch]

not sure if you enjoyed this one or not haha

[hushed fable]

I enjoy routing levels like this, but the chaingun sightlines felt really cheap

though I'm also biased against chainguns so take it with a grain of salt

[topaz gulch]

They felt a bit op for me

[hushed fable]

I should make an entity tierlist, I feel like custom tabs have given me lots to say about the less used ones

[hushed fable]

really cool challenge, though I wish it committed to using infinite evils

sucks when you route around that assumption only for the ending to be free. part of that fault is on me for not checking ofc, but still

[hushed fable]

this continues to be one of the sickest levels I've played

[topaz gulch]

i might have forgotten to check this one... sorry oops

since this is a direct rip of a level i uploaded to the servers

[hushed fable]

challenge was very cool here

[stable cipher]

Glad you liked it

I spent a surprising amount of time testing this one

The AGD route actually has a flowing path but tmk nobody's found it

My replay has it

[hushed fable]

bacon

churned through two columns today to wrap this up, very fun stuff

[topaz gulch]

wooo!!!!

GG

Thats the 3rd or 4th 100% completion!

[hushed fable]

here's a vid of the penultimate level, which is probably my favourite precision challenge in the tab

[thin mason]

coming back to this after a year feels really refreshing as I keep making steady progress

there wasn't a challenge I didn't like in those past three columns

great stuff

[cold quartz]

The king has returned

[topaz gulch]

thats amazing to hear

glad you like it so far!

[thin mason]

and done, loved it all the way through

nothing too difficult, many neat surprises and a healthy amount of filler

[topaz gulch]

GG!!! Congrats on the completion :) Glad you liked it and thanks for playing

[gray falcon]

too easy :)

[gray falcon]

lovely tab, gonna go for challenges straight away tomorrow

[topaz gulch]

Thought this might be possible... now it is proven!!!

[topaz gulch]

Glad you enjoyed! Good luck

[gray falcon]

honestly doing the DI there stuck out way more to me than the intended strategy

[gray falcon]

i'm sure it'll be lots of fun. there's barely even been any levels i've disliked so far

[cold quartz]

Geneva gold? :P

But yeh it's a super solid tab

[gray falcon]

that's my most attempted level so far

i first finished it and thought i would've found most of the gold but then it said like 12/24 and i was shocked

[topaz gulch]

hehe

[gray falcon]

that's crazy lmao

[topaz gulch]

it wasnt intended 😭

one of the few things that broke in this tab

[gray falcon]

but, it broke so perfectly

[topaz gulch]

you're not the first person to be fooled by this

im pretty sure

that toggle deserves a ban hammer

[gray falcon]

i mean my focus certainly wasn't in the bottom left of the level

[topaz gulch]

as you can tell neither for me either

[gray falcon]

was there a scrapped t++ challenge on this level? i see the toggles in the lasers but there is no t++ challenge

[gray falcon]

did a lil extra

definitely didn't waste a lot of time thinking it was the challenge

[topaz gulch]

honestly it was so long ago i have no idea... id assume i probably either didnt like something about it or i completely forgot

[topaz gulch]

hahaha

i initially planned that to be the challenge

but it was too hard

i did get it once but thought it wouldnt be fun

[gray falcon]

DESTAB complete!

really solid tab overall, well done

the all gold was great fun to do, some of the most fun i've had on custom tabs, and then challenges weren't too far behind. there were a few challenges though that were super high in difficulty compared to quite a lot of the filler in this tab, which i thought was lacking a bit in balance. there were also some which were very cheesable i thought, or i guess a few that didn't really make sense to me given the level. they were still really fun though! amazing job

i'm not sure if you'd want my save file for attempts, if you do that kind of thing but yeah :)

[topaz gulch]

woooo!!! congrats!!! another winner

great to see more 100% completions on this ^^

[topaz gulch]

the reason why some challenges didnt make sense is because i thought initally you dont need a challenge in a level...

so once i found out i had to scramble some levels and change them last minute

while doing some questionable stuff to some lol

glad you liked it anyway :D
