Scarlet Surge
“quote~ originator
Scarlet Surge is a 1.9 Harder 6* level created by Insendium. It is the second level in the Chaos Gauntlet and is known for its length and epileptic effects.
Gameplay
The level starts with a half-speed ship sequence with some flashing blocks and a warning sign at the beginning. Then it goes into a normal speed cube section with some jump orbs and other things, then a ball segment with some jump orbs and flashing platforms. Then it is a pretty easy UFO segment where you just avoid blocks. Then it is a wave with some easy timings, that switches direction in the middle.
Then it transitions into a cube section with some simple jumps, then it is a ship with some saws, that becomes mini in the middle. Then it is a ball with flashing blocks that become dual in the middle, then a UFO segment that becomes mini near the end. Then, the player enters a dual ship sequence, then a dual cube section, then a ship sequence, then an auto cube section that says "thanks" then "Insendium."

- This is one of the three gauntlet levels to be XL in length, the others being SLAM and The Behemoth.
- The level has a sequel called Sapphire Surge, made in 1.9 and 2.0.
- Scarlet Surge is one of the most hated non-Demon rated levels, even though it is pretty easy. This is due to a yellow orb located at 14% which requires incredibly precise timing to jump into the gap between two blocks. This yellow orb is one of the main reasons for the levels hated status due to being unfitting to the "Harder" difficulty rating and because it seems as the precision required was not intended.
