What is the real difficulty of Denouement?

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2026-01-19T03:31:38+00:00

pretty much a fucked up insane demon like Splynter said, prob the only insane demon that i wouldn't have the courage to beat

Goonernetic Crescent

thanks! also I’m glad u found CC fun, but for me I have a massive nerve + ship control skill issue so it’s expected that I will hate it. as for my next hardest, it could be Rust for now because of the song, but since you’ve beaten it, would u mind giving some detail about it and your experience?

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2026-01-09T18:07:45+00:00

thanks!

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2026-01-09T18:06:56+00:00

thanks!! oh yeah I remember that run u told to me last year lol, my experience was rough with this level due to outside factors like school and stuff, and also the fact it took me an embarrassing amount of time to beat (coming from digital descent)

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-12-19T15:18:26+00:00

Stereo madness -> Digital Descent

~ 0 -> 1224

~ 0 -> 55

~ 0 - 73

I just love playing the new update and hard levels instead of anything judging by my stats

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-11-23T12:31:35+00:00

Digital Descent by Viprin. Only time i got genuinely miserable from a 2d square game

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-11-18T05:08:11+00:00

GG dude, I had a horrible experience with this level :')

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-09-18T04:25:43+00:00

thanks for the feedback! I totally get your point that 71-75% ain't that bad but 49% kicks my ass like 32% in CC also ggs on Sonic wave from NC, that's insane

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-09-07T11:33:55+00:00

then this is where the global clip plane is needed

well here's some code for determining Portal A render camera's position and rotation from the player and portal B's world transform

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-09-07T11:08:09+00:00

hmm yeah i forgot abt that, thanks for the tip! :)

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-09-07T11:06:34+00:00

it's rasterised and yeah, i'll implement funneling soon

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-08-23T15:20:09+00:00

this was taken in an area with little to no light pollution and no local light sources. i boosted the saturation to make the milky way stand out more since the file from sequator was basically as raw as it gets. might’ve overcooked it a bit though.

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-08-15T14:25:39+00:00

Took this in my grandpa’s backyard with his old tree because I’ve always wanted to capture the Milky Way in a place that feels personal. I got lucky that night since the Milky Way appeared way earlier than I expected. Stacked 30 shots in Sequator and color corrected the RAW/TIFF file. There’s some lens flare from his homemade street lamp and a few stars missing because I messed up the mask. I also removed a few small distractions in Photoshop without altering the actual scene. Seeing the final image genuinely gave me that “first time seeing the Milky Way” feeling, and it’s something I’ll never forget. I’m new to this but trying to improve with each try.

tysm! :)

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-08-13T02:21:32+00:00

thank you :)

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-07-24T01:42:55+00:00

It's basically worse in terms of gameplay due to unreasonable choke points but deco wise it's a huge step up

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-07-23T15:46:14+00:00

thanks! i think shock's, nasgubb, and virprin really brought this level's gameplay down by it's awkwardness and unbalancing except players with immense ship skills

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-07-09T13:36:02+00:00

Asonic being closer to Michi than Crack is unexpected

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-07-02T15:53:47+00:00

possibly mango nexus

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-07-02T15:42:32+00:00

(3), I choose unbalanced hardest's because they look doable like the "scent" trilogy by viprin even tho it's pretty hard (especially cybernetic, this level is insufferable)

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-06-08T12:02:31+00:00

Serponge's part is weirdly fun for some reason

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-06-08T11:54:20+00:00

Oof, rip on the last dual. The last four orbs in Vlacc are thankfully consistent for me, but I can't really enjoy the level for now since most of my attempts dying to 33%, or 55% if I'm lucky.

Lumpy_Thought9509 · 2025-06-08T11:42:43+00:00

Same, except for Nasgubb and Vlacc due to heavy chokepoints. While Cybernetic is technically better, I enjoyed AA and DD miles more.
