'''Kyouki''' is a 2.1 solo Extreme Demon created, verified and published by Demishio. Kyouki is the hardest fully-solo level beaten legitimately (being completely created and verified by the same player), followed by [[Verdant Landscape]]. The level features fast gameplay with near humanly-impossible timings and quick game-mode changes, making the level very difficult to learn. Demishio designed the gameplay with his skillset in mind. Demishio verified Kyouki on November 24, 2022, after a death at 97%. He streamed himself playing the level for 175 days for around three hours each day, taking 501,997 attempts total (258,510 attempts to verify, 243,487 attempts playtesting).

'''Kyouki''' (Japanese: 狂気; <small><span title="literal translation">lit.</span></small> madness) is a [[Update 2.1|2.1]] Extreme Demon level by Demishio.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDa5c0CJTHs</ref> It features fast gameplay with nearly impossible timings and quick game-mode changes, making it very difficult to learn. Demishio designed the gameplay with his skill set in mind.
 
Demishio verified Kyouki on 24 November 2022 after a death at 97%. He streamed himself playing the level for 175 days, roughly three hours a day, for a total of 501,997 attempts (258,510 to verify and 243,487 for playtesting).
 
==Description==
*'''0-12%:''' Kyouki begins with a fast cube section, with many game-modes, like the ball, spider, robot, etc. The game-modes change very quickly, and it takes a long time to learn this part. Many pads, portals, and orbs have bright, neon designs. There is a tight wave near the end, and after 12%, the player goes into a triple-speed change into the next section.
*'''12-21%:''' The next area is rapid game-mode switching, fast speed and tight timings. Several tight normal-wave and mini-wave sections are here, with frequent speed changes and tighter timings with the ball, robot, and spider. There are also several tight flying sections floating in the air.
*'''21-30%:''' This section carries the same aesthetic as the others, with cube, ball, spider, and robot timings. At 26%, the player becomes a dual wave and must spam through a tight corridor. A fast cube follows that, with a tight mini-wave at the end. There are many tight timings and almost frame-perfect clicks here.
*'''30-40%:''' This section starts with a tight ship, then continues with the neon, spider, ball, and robot timings section. A swift wave/mini-wave section begins at 36%, ending at 39% with a slow UFO section.
*'''40-49%:''' From 40%-43%, there are spider/robot timings, orbs, pads and mini portals. After 43%, there is a squished monster straight-fly. After this, the duals begin with a cube dual, turning into a cube-ball section. Towards the halfway point of the level, there are mini-wave sections with the UFO, ball, robot, and spider.
*'''49-58%:''' Past the halfway point, the level gets somewhat slower and has many different hard duals like cube-ball and cube-robot. This section concludes with a tight UFO-ship dual, featuring tight clicks and near-invisible gameplay.
*'''58-68%:''' The level gets fast again and starts with the illusion of triple-spikes falling on the player. It is close to the first section but much tighter and faster. This section has no duals and is a very bright, epileptic section of the level.
*'''68-78%:''' The level slows down until 72%, and the rest of the section is tight duals. The duals here are tight and fast: wave-wave, cube-cube, cube-ball, and cube-ship.
*'''78-88%:''' This section starts with a Japanese symbol and then proceeds to a fast, very tight wave/mini-wave with gameplay close to [[Slaughterhouse|Slaughterhouse's]] mini-wave sections. It features many tight game-mode switches, culminating in a tight double-speed straight-fly section.
*'''88-94%:''' This section is much slower than the other sections, mainly focusing on a wave, then UFO, then slow cube gameplay. The section ends with a small, neon straight-fly.
*'''94-100%:''' There is a normal-speed cube section with tight orbs, timings and dash orbs. At 98%, there is an extended triple-spike. After passing the triple spike, the player encounters an end screen with multiple instances of the word 'Kyouki' flashing.
