"devin2003" (Insane Demon) by 2003devin | Geometry Dash 2.11

Warning: This video is not intended for children.

I've uploaded a couple of 2003devin's levels in the past, and I think they definitely deserve it. Of course, I understand why they're controversial and why they may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I think the artistic merit is there for everyone to see. This level in particular is no different. It seems to have a lot of references to his previous works, and considering the length, it kinda feels like the embodiment of 2003devin. The name makes a lot of sense if you think about it that way.

Aside from the unique art style and and visual references, I find the gameplay interesting. alika may be my favorite level by 2003devin because of how unique the gameplay is. It's probably the most simple level of his levels too, featuring little decoration and no backgrounds, but some cool and custom mechanical structures and obstacles in the foreground. The gameplay makes up for it, and I think many people agree that it's one of his best as a Geometry Dash level because it's the least "offensive" of his works. 0:44 and 2:29 in this remind me of the visuals of alika, but the unique gameplay elements can be seen throughout the entire level. This does make the level quite difficult, though, so it'll most likely be an Insane Demon. That is if it gets rated, which may not happen. Special thanks to Floppy for recording this for the showcase. (It's worth noting that he beat it in parts and that this video is cut.)

It's nice to see 2003devin stick to his style despite how divisive it is, whether it's in the visuals or the gameplay. I always think it's cool to see creators create levels that don't conform to the normal standards in some way, at least when the levels are clearly well-made. 2003devin is a creator that doesn't conform to standards in any shape or form really. His gameplay is weird to play, the visuals are out there, and even the song choices are unconventional. The Newgrounds song for this is way too short for the level, meaning that you kinda have to download the song that isn't available on there if you're gonna play this. With everything in mind, it's clear that he doesn't create for Creator Points at all, and in-game recognition by extension, but rather just for fun and to express himself. It's really cool to me that there are people out there creating levels like this. I don't think this will be rated because of some aforementioned issues, as well as some parts being a bit too graphic, but it's still a cool level to appreciate in video form or to beat if you're a fan.
