'''Conical Depression''' is a [[Update 2.0|2.0]] Extreme Demon level by [[KrmaL]]. It is a joke-level parody of [[Stereo Madness]], using the same song and made entirely in the style of the main level, albeit with an incoherent layout. It is notorious for its gameplay, which features extensive straight-flying, orb timings and spamming, and, most notably, extreme wave manoeuvring.


== Overview ==
==Description==
By the looks of it, this level is most likely a parody of '''Stereo Madness''', as it uses the same song, alongside its choice of blocks and background color on certain parts.
*'''0-11%:''' Conical Depression begins with an extremely difficult (and confusing) mini-wave section, where the player must take advantage of the game's faulty hitboxes. Here, the player must memorise the route while simultaneously navigating tight spaces and avoiding spikes.
*'''11-23%:''' Next, the player enters a normal speed mini-ball segment. While it is not that difficult compared to the other parts of the level, it still features some critical timings, along with a moderately long orb spam part. A cube section comes next, requiring players to perform late timings on orbs, as hitting a pink orb too early would likely result in hitting the ceiling and crashing.
*'''23-51%:''' Afterwards, the player enters a difficult ship sequence. Here, not only would there be an abundance of straight-flying, but it would also require players to perform timed orb inputs and some memorisation, making it even more frustrating. A mini-ship/mini-UFO dual will appear here, separating the ship sequences.
*'''51-86%:''' The part that comes right after the ship sequence is entirely based on the cube game-mode, set at triple speed. Like the previous cube part, it features tons of precise orb timings, which would be difficult for newer players to get used to. This part also uses the spikes' odd hit boxes to make it even more challenging, as some of the timings require the player to jump right next to a spike. Orb spamming is something that players should expect here, too.
*'''86-100%:''' The final part is a parody of the original Stereo Madness. It is a copy of the final sequence one would encounter in the first official level of the game, but instead of being a normal ship sequence, it uses the mini-wave game-mode. This part would not be a problem for anyone who had gotten this far. The level ends after this, as the player encounters a harmless wall of spikes at the end.


The level achieved its Extreme Demon rating as it features an excessive amount of straight flying, orb timings, orb spamming and most notably,its Very hard penis.

== Penisplay ==
==Trivia==
The level starts with an extremely hard penis right at the start which players have to go over in the mini penis, after that, there is a very confusing mini-wave section, where the player must take advantage of the game's faulty hit-boxes. Here, the player would need to memorize which route should be taken, at the same time maneuvering through tight spaces and moving right between spikes.
*Upon the creation of the modern [[Demonlist (Pointercrate)|Demonlist]] on Pointercrate on 4 January 2017, Conical Depression was placed at #8, above Betrayal of Fate and below Hatred.
**Right after the official Demonlist was created, Conical Depression was the hardest level to use an official song at the time; it was later beaten by The Hell World as the new hardest, followed by [[The Hell Zone]], which was the second hardest.
***Both of these levels were from the infamous Hell Series by [[Sohn0924]] and [[Stormfly]].
*Conical Depression is an extended version of KrmaL's older challenge level, 'Sneezing Cats' (and 'egg holes'). While the level was removed from the servers, a YouTube video of it is still available on his channel.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MQf9nS8wbs</ref>

**The player had to hold to direct their mini-wave into a quadruple-speed portal and wave portal at the top of the screen, and then more portals showed up, putting the player's mini-wave above the level.
*RobTop agreed to rate Conical Depression before it was created.
*Conical Depression was used as a custom background for part of M A N I X to fool the player into thinking Krmal added Conical Depression in M A N I X, although this was proven to be a joke background.

*There is an unofficial sequel to Conical Depression called Northernsence, verified by [[Luqualizer]].
*The last part is the entirety of the Stereo Madness last ship part, just as a mini-wave instead. This part is considered the easiest part of the level.

A mini-ball part comes next. While it isn't that difficult compared to the other parts of the level, it still features some critical timings, along with a moderately long orb spam part. A cube part comes next, requiring players to perform late taps on the orbs, as hitting a pink orb too early would result hitting the ceiling and crashing.

The part that comes right after the ship part is entirely based on the cube game-mode. The speed is set at triple speed.

* This level is rated, due to its sheer difficulty, but not featured, obviously.
* The verifier, [[Krazyman50]], took over 45,600 attempts to verify this.

* [[Surv]] was the first to beat this (excluding the verifier himself), followed by Marker and [[Sunix]].
* This level was hacked recently, being turned into a free demon, but was patched about a week later.
* AvillaRX2X recently verified a rebirth of this level, called Conical Depression X. While it's still unrated, it's considered to be possibly harder than [[Bloodbath]]. The level was recently hacked and turned into a free demon, but was also patched.
* This level was used as a custom background for part of [[M A N I X]] by KrazyMan50 and Manix648 to fool the player.

Conical Depression is a 2.0 Extreme Demon level by KrmaL. It is a joke-level parody of Stereo Madness, using the same song and made entirely in the style of the main level, albeit with an incoherent layout. It is notorious for its gameplay, which features extensive straight-flying, orb timings and spamming, and, most notably, extreme wave manoeuvring.

Description

A cube section comes next, requiring players to perform late timings on orbs, as hitting a pink orb too early would likely result in hitting the ceiling and crashing.
  • 23-51%: Afterwards, the player enters a difficult ship sequence. Here, not only would there be an abundance of straight-flying, but it would also require players to perform timed orb inputs and some memorisation, making it even more frustrating.
