'''Psychosis''' is a [[Update 2.0|2.0]] Hard Demon level by Hinds. It is a high-intensity level that cemented Hinds' reputation for creating 'clean' but brutally difficult gameplay. It features gameplay reminiscent of [[Update 1.9]] despite being a 2.0 level. It is often described as the spiritual successor to Hinds' other hit, Firewall, sharing a similar colour-pulse aesthetic and dynamic gameplay, with heavy focus on ship control.

The name of this level was suggested by a friend, probably for the song used. Due to its colored style and its dynamic gameplay, it can be defined as the second version of [[Firewall]], even if it's slightly easier than this one.

Psychosis is a 2.0 Hard Demon level by Hinds. It is a high-intensity level that cemented Hinds' reputation for creating 'clean' but brutally difficult gameplay. It features gameplay reminiscent of Update 1.9 despite being a 2.0 level. It is often described as the spiritual successor to Hinds' other hit, Firewall, sharing a similar colour-pulse aesthetic and dynamic gameplay, with heavy focus on ship control.

Description

The beginning of Psychosis is moderately difficult, requiring several tricks, precise timing, and straight-flying. The level becomes slightly harder near the drop as speed increases and more sequences are introduced. Each part has a specific game-mode:

  • Cube: Quadruple/quintuple spikes at triple speed, mostly timing.
  • Ship: Tight corridors with many gravity and size portals, and straight-flying.
  • UFO: Tight spaces, several parts with spamming, and timing.
  • Ball: Many spikes and orbs, mostly timing and memorisation.
  • Wave: Somewhat tight spaces, size, and gravity portals, mostly timing.

The level ends with a simple yet annoying fast-paced cube section. It is very similar to Firewall's first one.
