'''Cognition''' is a [[Update 2.1|2.1]] Extreme Demon collaboration level by [[EndLevel]] and Benji8080, verified by [[nSwish]] on 28 September 2019.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enl0GOyskPs</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUFxTATYEdQ</ref> It is known for having tight timings, despite being only a minute long. However, Cognition was received positively by most of the community, being one of the most popular levels to complete during its time on the [[Demonlist (Pointercrate)|Demonlist]].


== Gameplay ==
An official sequel, [[Oblivion]], was hosted by Benji8080 and verified by dice88 on 5 July 2021.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcmDAm50BB0</ref> Oblivion itself has a sequel called Blossom, but the level has not been decorated yet.
* '''0-22%: '''When the level starts, the player already has to do some ridiculous timings, while the portals and orbs are invisible. These timings are pixel-perfect and very tight. Then, a short ball section appears, with some similar timings. After this, another block section appears with the same timings as before. Then, a very difficult ship section comes, which has very tight straight flying in it. Eventually, the ship will slow down, and the screen gets darker. Then, the next section comes.
* '''22-52%:''' This section is at 3x speed, and it is extremely spammy and precise. So many different game mode portals fly at the player while the player has to spam these pixel-perfect timings. Once the section has reached its halfway point, there is a passive but tight wave section, which brings the player into the second half of this section. The second half contains some extreme duals and some extremely tight waves. Once again, at the end of this section, there is a short wave segment.
* '''52-72%: '''The speed has now slowed down to 1x speed, but the timings are still incredibly difficult. The start of this part begins with a block section, then it goes to a UFO. This UFO has some pretty weird timings and has a weird click pattern. After this, the speed slows down to 0.5x speed, with another block section. Following this is a ship section, with some very tight straight fly.
* '''73-100%: '''This part is a bit easier than 22% - 52%. It's very similar to it, but it's at 2x speed. This part is the most synced out of the whole level. The first half is just like 22% - 52% and the second half has a bit of dual-action, but overall it's very similar to 22-52%.

*'''0-21%:''' Cognition begins with the player already having to do ridiculous timings, while the portals and orbs are invisible. These timings are difficult and tight. Then a short ball section appears with similar timings. After this, another cube section appears, with the same timings as previously. Then, a difficult ship section comes, consisting of very tight straight-flying. Eventually, the ship slows down, and the screen darkens. Then, the next section comes.
!Player
*'''21-52%:''' This section is at triple-speed, extremely spammy and precise. Many different game-mode portals fly at the player, requiring them to perform difficult, quick timings. Once the section has reached its halfway point, a passive yet tight wave section emerges, drawing the player into the second half of this section. The second half contains some extreme duals and some tight waves. At the end of this section, there is another short wave segment.
!Percentage
*'''52-73%:''' The speed has now slowed to normal speed, but the timings are still incredibly difficult. This part begins with a cube section before turning into a UFO with peculiar timings and click patterns. After this, the speed slows down to half with another cube section. Following this is a ship section, with some very tight straight-fly. It is widely considered the easiest section of the level.
!Date Completed
*'''73-100%:''' This part is slightly easier than 22-52%. It is very similar to it but at double speed. This part is the most out of sync of the whole level. The first half is similar to 22-52%, and the second half is as well, although having a bit of dual-action.

Cognition is a 2.1 Extreme Demon collaboration level by EndLevel and Benji8080, verified by nSwish on 28 September 2019.[1][2] It is known for having tight timings, despite being only a minute long. However, Cognition was received positively by most of the community, being one of the most popular levels to complete during its time on the Demonlist.

An official sequel, Oblivion, was hosted by Benji8080 and verified by dice88 on 5 July 2021.[3] Oblivion itself has a sequel called Blossom, but the level has not been decorated yet.
