Description
[edit | edit source]- 0-10%: Crystal Essence begins with a half-speed cube section with pulsing glowy block design and spiky white sawblades. The second half of the part is a simple ball section.
- 11-22%: Afterwards, the decoration turns a bit darker as the music picks up in pace. Here is a cube section at normal speed except for the last few seconds, which are at half speed.
- 23-30%: Following this, the decoration turns even darker, going into a dark crystal cave. The entire part is a double-speed spider section.
- 31-39%: Afterwards, the decoration turns bright again with colour-changing, glowing, floating structures and crystals as the music reaches the drop. The first half of the part is an open triple-speed mini-ship section, while the second half is an auto cube section that turns completely black and shows the level name and creator.
- 40-54%: The drop begins, and the decoration is similar to the first part of the level, with glowy structures, but unlike the first part, the drop is more open, and it has two black walls that pulse to the music on the sides of the screen. The part begins with a double-speed cube section that turns into a ship section, which changes gravity twice before becoming a UFO with many gravity changes. At the end of the part, there is a simple cube section.
- 55-71%: Afterwards, it changes into a triple-speed symmetrical dual in which the structures are a bit different, but the gameplay is the same. The decoration features a glowy block design and rapidly changing colours. The first half of the part consists of a cube section and a ball section. Afterwards, there is a dual-wave section, considered the hardest part of the level. At the end of the part, there is an auto double-speed cube transition section.
- 72-90%: Following this, the next part's decoration is pretty simple with glowy blocks and changing colours. The entire part is a triple-speed ship section with a few gravity and size changers.
- 91-100%: The final part of the level is a double-speed cube section with simple gameplay, which switches to normal speed and then to half at the end. At the very end, there is a short animation of the cube floating up, exploding into small pieces, and an end screen that shows the level title, the creator, and 'Crystal Gauntlet contest entry'.
User coins
[edit | edit source]- Coin 1: At 7%, click just before the pink pad to land after the spike on the ceiling to collect one of two pink crystals. Then, after landing from the yellow gravity portal at 9%, immediately click to reach the second pink crystal, which will remove the spike from the user coin at 10%. Alternatively, it is possible to get the coin without the spike being removed with well-timed inputs in between the first and second spike, just before falling off the ledge. Hitting the pink orb early allows more consistency in staying alive after going between the spikes.
- Coin 2: It requires collecting three keys that are in a sequence to unlock the coin. The first key is at 24%, which requires hitting the blue orb really late. The second key is at 25%, which requires going down between the two pillars and switching gravity while in the second pillar to survive. To get the third key, buffer the green orb shortly after the second key, then enter the structure with the key. After getting the third key, switch gravity and hit the pink orb shortly after to obtain the coin.
- Coin 3: At 72%, hit the toggle orb in the black cube transition. Then, at 92%, hit the yellow orb really early to make it above the structures and do the short gameplay section on top of the structures.
