Natural Disaster is a 2.1 Extreme Demon collaboration level created by GammaReXx, Cantis and Helix, published by GammaReXx and verified by Helix on 31 October 2022 after over 86,000+ attempts.[1] The level features a nature motif (similar to The Golden) giving the level a neon-green colour scheme. It also draws inspiration from CuLuC's work, with heavy use of texturing and lighting effects.

It was created as an impossible level with nearly humanly impossible wave sections. Popular impossible level showcasers in the community, such as fnm04 and Exen, popularised the level, creating a community-wide interest in Natural Disaster. Due to the level's popularity, GammaReXx created a new version with updated decoration set to be Top 5-10 difficulty.[2] The impossible version is uploaded as 'ND Unnerfed' on GammaReXx's account.

An official redecoration was finished by The Elite and was verified by iliLaserili in July 2024 to allow the level to be rated again.

Controversy

After the level was rated on 6 November 2022, many community members expressed disdain. Around that time, several community members found many stolen assets and designs from other levels in Natural Disaster. The levels stolen from include Aerial Gleam, The Golden, Slaughterhouse, Scorpius and Cybernetic Crescent (though these symbols are from the Sheikah Alphabet, an alphabet from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild).[3] As a result, RobTop unrated the level on 7 November 2022. Shortly after, Helix announced that a team would attempt to re-decorate Natural Disaster, which was eventually finished and verified, meaning it could be rated once more and be placed on the Demonlist.

Gameplay

The decoration and gameplay of Natural Disaster were created by GammaReXx and Helix, revamping parts from the original impossible version.

  • 0-19%: The level starts with a half-speed mini cube section containing multiple timings with a brief ball and spider section. Next, the player enters a normal-speed ship section of straight-flying and hitting blue orbs. The player then enters a long transition where GammaReXx's logo will appear (the Greek letter Gamma with wings) before large text saying 'Natural Disaster' with effects of lightning and glow particles in the background.
  • 20-57%: The level's difficulty significantly increases as the player enters a quadruple-speed wave mode consisting of constant gravity- and size changes. A brief ship section shortly after consists of teleportation portals and gravity changes. A very long and difficult wave section follows, featuring several dual segments. In the last section of the part, the level turns monochrome as the player enters a short straight-flying segment with gravity portals. The screen flashes white to transition to the second half of the level.
  • 58-94%: After exiting the wave section, the player enters a quadruple-speed section consisting of multiple claustrophobic brief game-mode changes and difficult timings. After a long sequence of flow-based gameplay, the player must hold down three dash orbs. The first two are in the cube game-mode, while the last one is in the wave game-mode and has the player go through a very tight gap between spikes before the end screen appears.
  • 95-100% (Cantis, End Screen): An artwork depicting the Earth suffering from environmental damage appears with the text 'Respect the planet'. The level then ends with the text 'GG' and credits.

User coins

This level only contains one user coin, located at 64%. The player must hit a yellow orb to enter a brief wave section. The coin can be tricky to collect due to the extremely tight spaces where it is located. After the player collects the coin, they return to the normal route.

Trivia

  • The level's password is 069420.
  • The level contains 118,674 objects.
  • The level is 1m 14s in length.
  • The level was initially placed at #41 on the Demonlist on 25 August 2024, above The Golden (#42) and below Viprin UFO (#40).
    • This addition pushed Renevant into the Extended List and XRAY into the Legacy List.
  • Following allegations, CuLuC spoke out about the copied assets from Aerial Gleam. He said that while there were stolen designs and effects, the level still has original designs and should stay rated, although he would have wanted GammaReXx to ask him for permission.[4] Unfortunately, it did not prevent Natural Disaster from being unrated.
