The level is a partial remake of [[Kenos]].

The Bloop was rated on 23 June 2026, alongside the [[Demonlist Top 1 Levels|Top 1 level]] [[Society]], after requests to rate the two levels when [[Robert Topala|RobTop]] joined [[Trick|Trick's]] [[Thinking Space II]] stream.

==History==
murkkat began creating The Bloop in November 2024, according to the showcase trailer. He released the first preview of the level on 16 December 2025,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCWOAyXnMrU</ref> before releasing a full showcase on 20 January 2026.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4orUe_rGfk</ref>

On 26 November 2025, Zoink began verifying The Bloop and quickly learned the level, completing a run of 72-100%. On 27 February 2026, he began playing from the beginning of the level, getting a new best of 28%. On 3 March, he got 42%; on 5 March, 56%; and the next day, 61% and 71%. On 10 March, he started buffing the level and reached 83%; on 11 March, 95%; and finally verified the level on 15 March 2026.<ref name="Verification" /> Zoink estimated it to be around Top 20-75 in difficulty. However, other players believe the difficulty is underestimated, and the level is much harder.

==Controversy==
When Zoink began verifying the level, The Bloop primarily received backlash for being largely identical to Kenos, with similar decorations and gameplay, and for being stolen from that level. Zoink later stated that the decoration was not stolen<ref>https://www.youtube.com/shorts/pJgPdT7TvuY</ref> and that murkkat was given permission to use some of Kenos's decorations.

Additionally, the fish in the level comes from the other level, [[Eyes in the Water]], with murkkat also stating that he had permission to put it in the level, similar to Kenos.

==Trivia==
*The Bloop was rated on 23 June 2026 and placed at #10 on the [[Demonlist (Pointercrate)|Demonlist]] on 23 July 2026, above [[Every End]] and below [[BOOBAWAMBA]].
**This addition pushed Every End out of the Top 10, Operation Evolution into the Extended List, and Scream Machine into the Legacy List for the second time.
**RobTop was in one of Trick's Thinking Space II live-streams after receiving a Twitch subscription, and Zoink requested The Bloop to be rated, with the chat requesting Society to be rated as well.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViX1pY2gio8</ref>
