Even if you tagged it right... I feel like it should as least lead
somewhere.
For this entire gif duration- which happens to be most of the stage- I held my controller with only my left hand, and used only the left joystick. This reveals some problems like: the lack of real platforming most of the time, and the fact that you slide under the spikeballs without getting hit. I will give it to you that you made the path twist and turn interestingly, however.
Did you even test this??? I know that's a really rude thing to say, but I see no other reason why this wouldn't line up. I'm not pressing anything after hitting the boost pad.
Did you paste this in and forget to change the texture from F_SKY1? Even if you wanted it to be sky I think you should change the sector heights. I know this whole thing feels really nitpicky, but the stage genuinely feels extremely unrefined. It feels like a beta.
A lot of this stage is like this area. Flat. 90 degree angles. One path forward and nothing to do to the sides. No reason to explore, nothing really memorable. There are too many large, flat planes. Maybe I jump up a bit. But I wanna be excited! I want to careen across a stage up and down and all around. You should play with verticality more.
I think the 2.2 quality jump permanently tainted my view on stages. I remember enjoying this stage thoroughly back when Kimokawaiii released. Going back to it, however, made me realize that your new version is really an improvement. It still feels rough to me, I feel like this is lacking the polish it needs to be excellent. It never excites me. It's too short and too flat. There are a couple visually interesting areas, like this area in particular:
And yet the problems previously stated still apply here. There's a lot of long stretches of ground. There's a very large sloped side area with only a single ring box on it. The surrounding walls and thok barrier don't feel like nature to me. I don't know how I would describe it, but it feels wrong. This stage isn't bad. I've played far worse. It just feels... painfully mediocre to me.
