"Emerald Realm" is a long-awaited art project, and I was excited to try it out to showcase it after CastriX asked me to. If you're a fan of the games, this has some obvious references to the Ori series throughout, which seems to be base for the entire level's theme. It's been a while since I got through the games in the series, but this reminded me of some of the great scenery. Some parts do take art a bit more directly from those games, while others make it fit a bit better for Geometry Dash, and I like the latter approach a bit better. However, both are impressive nonetheless, and I have to applaud everyone involved in this project's visuals.

As for the gameplay, well, the visuals probably speak for themselves in terms of performance. The level lags quite a lot at certain parts in its current state, even on my PC which has incredibly good specifications. I put in a few hours of trying to beat this legitimately, ending up at 80%, but upon watching the recording the lag was extremely noticeable, so I had to play around with some MegaHack settings to get a smooth recording like this. Even with that, a few parts struggle a bit in the video if you pay attention. As such, I wouldn't recommend trying this on a mobile device; it's probably just better to enjoy videos of it then. However, it's worth noting that the level isn't finished yet and that they will still be optimizing it more before release. A powerful LDM should also be available once it's out, and that should hopefully allow a lot more people to try it out. In terms of difficulty, it should be a Medium Demon. I think many parts play surprisingly well considering their level of detail. The difficulty mostly comes from the level being so long. Some transitions could use some more polishing, but that's another thing I'm sure they'll improve before the final release. It should be within a few weeks!

    That ending by matty2003 was so impressive that it blew my mind. Never have I seen anything like that
  • @MoldyGD
    Back before I started making serious videos for my channel, I remember seeing parts of this level. It was truly inspiring. Seeing it nearly finished after all these years is incredible. This really just puts in perspective just how much time and work has been put into this masterpiece. This level is truly something special to have survived for this long. Huge respect to the creators for their insane dedication!
  • @Lystical
    I've been waiting for this since Culuc's part, glad it's finally finished!
  • @The_Horizon
    The first gd level to really give me goose bumps holy fuck
  • @kakimu
    That endscreen is like a game cutscene, this level is so good
  • @DhruvRajesh_
    Being a brazy Ori fan, awaiting release for 2+ years with not a single disappointing preview - I'm still in awe in how this feat was accomplished. You won't find such well-executed imagination and creativity somewhere else. Congratulations to the team, beyond hyped for this ๐Ÿ™

    This has been in the works for so long and what we got to see so far is just absolutely incredible. For example Culuc's part is arguably one of the best/most realistic art styled collab parts out there and the other one's I've seen so far are incredible as well. I'm so glad they were able to complete this massive project after such a huge amount of dedication, work and effort and I can't wait to see the full showcase. I'm very curious how well a level with such an amount of details like this one can be optimized in the end and if this will even be playable on normal devices. No matter what, I'm incredibly excited for this premiere and I can already say that this will be absolutely amazing!
  • @rayrsd
    Let's just hope the majority wasn't here for Culuc's part. The entire collab is amazing
  • @gkoble
    Friendly reminder that robtop rated this "featured", have a good day.
  • @elchicharr
    Finally, I hope CuluC's part is well optimized now

  • @Vulc4nium
    This looks phenomenal (especially Culuc's part) and i am anxious to see what would be accomplished in 2.2. Hats off to the creating team behind this level, they did an amazing job and i'm excited to witness their future projects/levels.
