Speed Racer
Template:Infobox LevelSpeed Racer is a 1.9/2.0 Easy Demon created by ZenthicAlpha. It is generally considered to be one of the easiest Demon levels in the game. The gameplay revolves around constant speed changes (shown in the picture), hence the name. This level also features a large number of speed portals, to add to the difficulty and the sync. The level tests the basic memorization skills of a player and goes much below the difficulty of a typical Demon level. It may be considered a Very Easy Demon and, furthermore, the easiest Demon by ZenthicAlpha. Because of this, this is one of the most popular Demon levels in the game.
Gameplay
This level starts with a simple cube section with jump rings and spikes, then a mini cube section with tricks and blue pads, that ends with an auto part in normal mode. After appears three brief parts: a ship sequence with invisible spikes, a memory cube similar to the previous one, and a ball segment with basic mashing.
Then appears a semi-auto cube section with a few jumps, then the music beat drops, and a variable speed ship appears before single, then dual, then single again. After that, there is a mini ball with central blocks and clusters of speed portals, when you must memorize the correct path to not hit an invisible spike.
Then the ball becomes dual with spikes and speed portals that disorient the player. If the player chooses to flip the gravity before the second mini ship, then the player will play the segment upside down, causing the player to crash at the next cube segment. Then appears a single ship sequence that alternates the layout of the previous one and the layout of the last dual ball (but before single and then dual). After a simple double-speed UFO segment the ship returns, in the same way of the previous. A very simple cube section like in the beginning leads to the last, longer memorization mini ball. Finally, the level ends with a mini ship sequence, the background turns to black and the mark of ZenthicAlpha appears, with "Zenthic" above and "Alpha" below.
User coins
- The first coin is located at 15%, in a mini-cube section. To collect it, you must not hit the pink jump orb so that you fly up to the upper route which contains the coin.
- The second coin is located at 87%, in the final cube section. To collect it, you must not jump onto the second-to-last platform, but instead, drop down into a fake block and then jump back onto the last platform.
- The third and final coin is located at 97%, in the final half-speed ship sequence. To collect it, you need to carefully fly over the saw-blade but then quickly drop down as soon as you obtain the coin to avoid crashing into the spike.
