Afterwards, the player gets thrown into an above-water ship section where they must avoid spikes and dragon silhouettes. It later turns into a short mini-cube section. Next is the ship section with more silhouettes to avoid. The final section is a dash orb the player must use as a robot to complete the level.
 
The level ends with a cinematic cutscene of the robot being launched into the sky above an island, with the level name and credits appearing.

    Brave Blue is a 2.2 Hard level by Glubfuberz, published on 30 May 2026. It is the 23rd Event Level. The level is vibrant and undersea-themed, which aligns with the song's usage. The gameplay is more relaxed, with custom animations, such as a leviathan-like creature emerging from the water.

    • 0-23%: Brave Blue begins 'underwater' with lower gravity and cube gameplay. Next, a ship section begins still underwater, where the player must fly past red spikes and older stone buildings on the ground. In the background, there are statues of mythical creatures. At 20%, the player enters a mini portal, then ascends up a slanted surface and out of the water.

    • 45.25-57%: After the very short ball section is a double-speed ship section where the player avoids large spikes, and silhouettes of dragons fly in the background. Then, a very short mini-cube section follows, transitioning the player into a cave.

The player emerges from the cave into a robot section with origami-styled dragons in the background, and must perform a series of jumps across several floating platforms that crumble once the player jumps from them. On the final platform is a jump pad, leading to an animated transition of the player's robot diving into the seas.

Using a key found within the editor, messages using the latter can be decoded using the legend shown here. Below is a list of runic messages found in Brave Blue (unless otherwise indicated, the symbols appear in mid-air, detached from other decorations):

    • 1%: 'ATTEMPT #'

    • 67%: 'SOAR HIGH' is inscribed on the last platform before transitioning into the final section.
    • 99% (End screen): 'GLUBFUBERZ'

    Black text reading 'SWAG' can be revealed in two places by activating hidden toggle triggers:

    • The first is at 30.25%; it is triggered by skipping the platform directly below.
    • The second is at 53.75%; it is triggered by making a jump at the top edge of a long platform (53.5%) down to the next platform, skipping a jump marked with a visual indicator.
