Traction is a 2.0 Easy Demon created by Ferdefunky. It is the second level in the Demon Gauntlet, after Sidestep and before Mechanical Showdown.
Gameplay
The level starts with a cube section where the player must hit jump orbs while being thrown around by bounce- and gravity pads, followed by some jump orbs, jumps, and auto parts. Then, the player goes into a robot that starts with two green orbs where the player has to time their jumps. Some more jump- and orb timings follow, with the last jump requiring timing in particular. Then, the player enters a ship part with changing gravity.
Then, there is a ball segment requiring some timing, followed by a UFO, and then a robot with some jumps. After this, there is a wave segment with some tight spaces, followed by a cube with some jumps. Next is a ship with timings, followed by a UFO segment with tricky timings.
A cube follows, then a dual cube section, followed by a short dual robot. After this, there are many short segments involving ball, cube, ship, wave, then a cube again. This is followed by a short robot, before the level ends with a cube section featuring simple jump orbs.
