Dashmetry Golden (Layout) is a Demon level focused entirely on aerial movement, where players have virtually no landing points throughout the level. At only about 30 seconds long, the level presents an extremely challenging experience thanks to its fast speed, constant transformations, and extremely narrow obstacle course.
Designed by nexixen, the level uses Waterflame's Streetwise music to create a fast-paced rhythm, requiring precise reflexes from the very first input. Layout completely eliminates coins, allowing players to focus on survival, timing, and flight control.
Core Gameplay Structure
Dashmetry Golden (Layout) begins with the Ship segment, where players must maintain stable flight through suspended corridors. Constant downward gravity makes maintaining a stable altitude crucial. Next is the Ball Gravity Chain, using multiple gravity orbs placed in mid-air. Players need to react quickly to each orb to change gravity at the right moment, as a single misstep will result in immediate collision with the spike.
In the Cube micro-control phase, the small platform blocks require precise micro-taps. The duration of key presses determines the jump length, so maintaining a steady rhythm significantly reduces errors. The final section combines UFOs and Waves, creating a continuous control sequence with no pauses. The movement space is very narrow, forcing players to maintain a precise clicking rhythm until the level is completed.
Strategy Tips
Maintain a steady hand rhythm instead of reacting too quickly during gravity orb sections.
In the Ship segment, avoid holding down keys for too long as the strong flight force can easily cause collisions with the corridor ceiling.
Remember the transformation location to prepare timing before entering a new section.
When encountering the Wave at the end of the level, focus on maintaining a small and consistent movement angle to avoid losing control.
