I started playing, like, three hours ago. Now I’m finally finished with it. Oddly though, reaching the first checkpoint made up about two thirds of the total playing time.
Gameplay:
Very fun. Interesting enemy placement and fresh ideas kept me playing. There are lots of secrets to be found, challenges to overcome and enemies to slaughter. Even though the level is very long, it always offers something new. Crate puzzles and different sets of enemies throughout the whole level keep it from getting boring. The second part was a bit dissapointing, because it ended surprisingly early.
Rating: 9.0
Difficulty:
Hard as heck. The first part until you finally reach the checkpoint, that is. I died again and again until I did it, strangely, after that it became a lot chillier. This is probably due to the fact that I had fully powered fast fire at this point, and enough weapons to kill whatever tried to make my life harder. I only died once more, and that was right after I reached another checkpoint. It still wasn’t easy of course, seeing as I had to keep myself on constant alert throughout the whole game to make it through. A safepoint right before the vine part would have helped a lot to balance it out though.

Creativity:
Very very creative. Other people would create a whole pack with the ideas that have been implemented into this huge level. You travel through a lot of different environments, from the hot jungle to an ice cave to some kind of underground dungeon. There are many gimmicks to keep you playing, like the possibility to get a fire shield with lots of clocks nearby, lots of secrets and bonus areas and little puzzles involving the finding of crates. I would have enjoyed something like a great final at the end. Maybe a boss battle or something similiar.

Eyecandy:
Beautiful. The level uses a tileset which looks like one from an old 2D platformer, though I don’t know which. Still, the rather shabby graphics of the tileset don’t hinder the view at all, it still looks great. Every area looks different, and some nice effects have been used. I especially liked the underground dungeon, which had nice lighting.

Story/Design:
No story. That reduces the fun a bit, but it’s not ultimately needed. Awesome design. There really is a nice atmosphere while playing. Everything looked realistic too.
Rating: 8.5
Overall:
This was, despite it’s shortcomings, a very fun level to play and a huge challenge. Also, it gave me something to do this afternoon, which is always a good thing. Once you get past that annoying vine part and reach the checkpoint, this can give you a fun time playing. Some may be scared away by said part though.
Final Rating: 8.5, download recommendation

That’d mean, I’d have to replay it all on hard? XD
Too bad I have no time today. =b
Seriously, I’m looking forward to replaying it on hard sometime.
