Crimson Planet is a 2.0/2.1 Extreme Demon mega-collaboration level hosted by TrueOmega, verified by Wooshi on 19 May 2018. It is a purely red level with difficulty primarily focused on its fast-paced wave parts. The level took almost a year to be rated after its verification.

TrueOmega's official sequel to Crimson Planet, Scarlet Sirius, was finally finished in April 2026, currently awaiting a verifier.

History

Crimson Planet was somewhat started in Update 2.0, when Terron entered Viprin's Creator Contest 7, which was to decide the replacement for Manix648's part in Yatagarasu. Terron's entry featured intense, fast-paced gameplay with many portal changes.

However, AbstractDark won the contest, so Terron decided to use his part for a new hell-themed level—Crimson Planet.

On 27 February 2017, Zimnyte revealed his part in Crimson Planet, which combined two of his styles. On 25 October 2017, Metalface221 revealed his part, which consisted of several fast-paced cube timings and a tight ship sequence.

On 11 January 2018, Wooshi achieved a 36-100% run. He stated in the video description that it took him about an hour to get, and Crimson Planet is not as hard as Sonic Wave. On 12 January 2018, he uploaded a video showcasing his part in the level. It featured several tight and precise wave spaces.

On 22 April 2018, Wooshi got a new record of 92% twice. Due to this, he made 92% auto by adding invisible blocks. Eventually, he verified Crimson Planet on 19 May 2018.

Description

• 0-15% (nikrodox): Crimson Planet begins with an incredibly difficult cube section that requires precise timing. After a short ball-and-robot section, the level transitions into a difficult ship sequence that requires considerable skill. During the build-up to the drop, the player becomes a cube, and the part ends.
• 15-22% (TrueOmega): TrueOmega's part is almost entirely an exceptionally difficult triple-speed wave segment that requires a ton of skill and manoeuvring. It switches between sizes and gravity very frequently. The part ends with an easier cube section.
• 22-28% (EndLevel): EndLevel's part starts with a difficult ship sequence with some straight-fly and ends with a difficult UFO segment with many orbs and portals in tight spaces that requires lots of skill.
• 28-36% (YakobNugget): YakobNugget's part begins with a brief auto cube section and a short straight-fly section. An extremely tight and difficult wave segment follows, with moving spikes. The part ends with a brief but tight spider after a brief ship section.
• 36-44% (Dz3ser): Dz3ser's part begins with some extremely tight straight-fly, followed by an extremely fast-paced and tight wave section. The part ends with a difficult half-speed timing-based UFO segment.
• 44-53% (Terron): Terron's part features some very fast-paced gameplay, with a cube section, a very tight wave part, another cube part, a very tight UFO segment, some straight-fly and a brief timing-based ball. The part ends with a half-speed robot segment.
• 53-64% (AimTheSame): AimTheSame's part starts with a brief cube and robot part, followed by a tight ship sequence. After a tight and fast-paced wave segment, the part ends with a difficult, tight UFO segment.
• 64-72% (Zimnyte): Zimnyte's part starts with a very fast-paced but dark spider segment, followed by a difficult timing-based UFO segment and cube section. A very tight, difficult wave segment with varying sizes and gravity is next, but it is extremely difficult to see due to the dark background and block combination.
• 72-83% (TrusTa + Metalface221): Their part begins with a very tight timing-based mini-cube section, followed by a brief UFO segment. After a tight ship sequence with lots of straight-flying, the part ends with a fast-paced mini-cube section.
• 83-100% (MrPPs): MrPPs' part begins with a mini-cube section, followed by a short quadruple-speed ship sequence with even more straight-flying. After a fast, tight wave section and a spider segment, the part ends with a straight-fly with many gravity portals. The text at the end displays 'THE END'. The level concludes with credits featuring everyone participating in the collaboration, and the level name appears right after.

Trivia

• Crimson Planet was rated on 9 May 2019, almost a year after the verification, and placed at #2 on the Demonlist on 9 May 2019, ranked above Bloodlust and below Zodiac.
  • This addition pushed Sonic Wave out of the Top 5 for the second time, Mystic into the Extended List, and Incipient into the Legacy List.
    • In June 2019, Zodiac was moved from the #1 spot on the Demonlist into the Legacy List due to an update following xander's confession to hack-verifying the level. As a result, Crimson Planet claimed the #1 spot for one day, spanning about 20 hours, until this change was reverted, with Zodiac reclaiming its former spot.
      • Crimson Planet is regarded as the 34th instance of the hardest rated level in the game's history.
      • If Crimson Planet had been rated the same day of its verification, it would have been a Top 1 for around eight months.
      • Crimson Planet formerly held the record for shortest reign at #1. The record was broken when Firework was placed at #1 for 18 seconds before Slaughterhouse was placed.
• Had Crimson Planet been rated right after its verification, it would:
  • Dethrone Bloodlust on 19 May 2018 as the hardest verified level.
  • Be the level with the longest time on the Demonlist, and the longest time as a Top 1 level.
• There is an Easter egg in Crimson Planet with the message 'what can I say except you're welcome'. Triggering it will result in the player's death at the end of the level. It is a reference to the song 'You're Welcome' by The Rock from the 2016 American film Moana.
• MetaManRB has made impressive runs on Crimson Planet within a week of its release, namely 36-100%. These runs caused Wooshi to think he had overestimated the level's difficulty.
• Wooshi has beaten Crimson Planet twice.
• Aimthesame's old part in Crimson Planet became a meme on Twitter because of how bad it was considered.
• There is an upcoming sequel to the level called Scarlet Sirius, hosted by TrueOmega. It has been in the works for over seven years and was finished in April 2026. The level was showcased on 13 April 2026, awaiting playtesters and a verifier.
  • There is also an unofficial upcoming sequel/antithesis called Corrupted Planet. The level's difficulty is set to be within the difficulty range of a Top 15-30. Despite being fully finished, no player has attempted to verify the level.
• Wooshi used to be hosting another sequel to Crimson Planet, Vermillion Venture.
• Flaaroni made an April Fools' joke where he pretended to beat Crimson Planet on a copyable while noclipping it and talking through the level. He did the same thing with Tartarus the next year.
• Crimson Planet used to be the hardest Demon beaten on a low refresh rate mobile device with a 120Hz sensor.
• The placement of ORBIT on 10 March 2026 pushed Crimson Planet into the Legacy List of the Demonlist after nearly seven years.
  • Wooshi gave a reaction to this announcement on the Pointercrate Discord Server.

Notable fails

• Wooshi crashed at 92% on 22 April 2018. Due to this fail, he harshly nerfed Crimson Planet out of rage, but he has now undone most of the nerfs.
  • Wooshi has buffed and nerfed Crimson Planet numerous times.
• Mycrafted paused and accidentally exited Crimson Planet after he passed the last part because he pressed the wrong key on his keyboard while trying to unmute himself. He technically beat the level because it is not physically possible to die between the place in the level where this occurred and the very end of the level. However, due to Pointercrate's regulations, the achievement stands invalid for the Demonlist. He has since completed it on 14 March 2020.

Notable completions

• nSwish had been the first to complete Crimson Planet legitimately on 25 May 2019.
• Two players made big jumps on Crimson Planet: Amerii beat this as its second List Demon, jumping from Bloodbath, and Kuiper beat this as his seventh Extreme Demon, a jump from Erebus, in just 136,008 attempts.
  • Kuiper's attempt count surpasses npesta's 135,320 attempts of his Kenos verification by a tiny margin, only to be beaten by Zupreme's 270,843 attempts with his Cognition completion.
    • However, the real attempt record beforehand was Muffy450's ~634,000 attempt count on Sonic Wave.
• Kaza not only beat Tartarus and Renevant, but he also beat Crimson Planet within a week after his previous record of 60% in less than a day. Kaza beat three Top 10s within a week in May 2021, making him the first player to do so and shaping the game's skill base.
• Blackmg not only beat Crimson Planet on 144Hz, but he also has a 60Hz record run of 28-100%.
• Skarro was first to beat Crimson Planet on a controller on 9 March 2021, making him the first person to have done so and marking the hardest Demon completed on a controller at the time. It was later dethroned by 12_Kelvin's Zodiac completion on a controller on 4 December 2021.
  • 12_Kelvin's current hardest Demon completed on a controller is Firework on 26 March 2022.
• Zentel is the first person to beat Crimson Planet on mobile, beating it between 11/12 November 2021 and making it a new Top 1 Demon on the High Refresh Rate Mobile Demonlist.
• SeaWolfMikes became the first person to beat Crimson Planet on 60Hz mobile on 26 September 2024, making it a new Top 1 Demon on the Low Refresh Rate Mobile Demonlist.
