Through The Gates is an early 2.1 former impossible Extreme Demon mega-collab made by Maestro Illuminati, and published under the TeamTheDashers account. Originally hack-verified by Exen in 2018, the level remained without a true verifier until Zoink verified it legitimately on October 12, 2023. Through The Gates is seen by many as a spiritual successor to Thinking Space, due to it's insane difficulty spikes near the very end of the level, as well as being infamous for inconsistent transitions and being very rough around the edges.
The level remained unrated until January 18, 2026 in the same rate wave as Death Corridor Z, Denouement, Khorne, and Message to RobTop. It placed on the Demonlist at #30, above Firework and below KOSETSU.

Description
Through The Gates depicts a light-blue techno theme, instead of the typical red-and-black 'hell' styled Extreme Demon. The level features relatively easy gameplay in the first 75%, then ramps up the difficulty dramatically from 75-90%, and then spikes incredibly hard at the very end of the level.
- 0-25% (Exen): The level begins with a dark section with black fog surrounding the player, having slow gameplay and precise timings. When the intro to the song ends, a title card appears with the text "welcome to... THE GATES...", before transitioning into bright fast gameplay with many quick gamemode changes.
- 25-37% (Azuri & Alex200371): Azuri's part focuses purely on the ship gamemode, with the part having at least one icon being a ship, using a good amount of straight fly and orb timings, as well as dual ship for a small portion. The decoration is light blue and white at the first section, but then becomes black and green at the dual ship and stays that way until the end of the part.
- 37-62% (Kentakiman): Kentakiman's part is the longest single part of the level, and features constantly moving detailed structures and extremely fast gameplay, with nearly the entire part being at quadruple-speed, swapping between gamemodes decently quickly. The second-half of the part features heavy focus on the dual gamemode, with multiple asymmetrical sections, and the part ends with a straight fly closing in on you.
- 62-72% (Maestro Illuminati & Kentakiman): Maestro Illuminati's part brings back the black fog from Exen's part, and features a small corridor at normal and half-speed with very tight timings and straight fly, most likely inspired by Michigun's part in Bloodbath. The part features art of a sword and shield on the left and right sides of the screen, and then changes to a bow and arrow.
- 72-90% (Kawoo): Kawoo's part starts with a title card of the level, and then transitions into a straight fly with core-styled, heavily detailed decoration. The part features an infamously inconsistent click at 79%, before transitioning into a cube and wave dual. The transition out of the dual is also infamously inconsistent, sometimes killing you seemingly at random. The part features a high-CPS spider section, and then ends with a long straight fly.
- 90-100% (Tan1c & Kentakiman): Tan1c's part is the most well known and infamous section of the level, featuring incredibly tight and difficult sections. It starts with a short mini-cube maze, and then turns into a very precise mini-ship straight fly, into a very high-CPS and precise dual ball, into a very awkward and inconsistent mini-UFO, and then into the infamous 96% mini-wave, which has multiple frame perfects on even higher refresh rates like 120hz. After the mini-wave, the level features one last triple spike at the very end.
