HELIOPOLIS - Full Level Showcase
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 авг 2023
- HELIOPOLIS is finally done after being in the making for 3 years, and no it's not named after Acropolis, but my home town. Polis means City and Helio means sun.. The city of the sun. (tho some concepts like the level being all half speed are taken from acropolis just dont tell anyone.)
Originally I gave it to ItsHybrid to continue hosting it after half the layout was done, after he got the layout finished, I decided to take it back after the level didn't really go anywhere after that and here we are a year and a half later.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this level possible, at the top of the chain we have StarkyTheSalad who at first offered to decorate the entire level alone, which would've been cool, but he ended up quitting after building till the first half of the robot, and I thought it would be better to enhance the progression of the level by introducing more diverse creators later down the line, so Matty2003 and Magpipe were the best candidates for that, while it was a pain to explain exactly how the parts should look like and progress, the final product is indeed something that I'd consider one of my best projects ever.
There was a part made by Swagmasta001 and DarkCacti which was good during the time Hybrid hosted it, but I didn't think it represented the vibe I wanted with the level in general, but they do deserve credit for being part of this level's history.
As for the verification, I decided to give this level to an OG player named Pablohh. Many people probably haven't heard of him or have forgotten about him due to his inactivity, but he has been working on slaying this beast of a level for a while now, reaching 27%. One last thing, the whole shtick with the level being easier on lower refresh rates was discontinued, as many experiments and tests resulted in the level looking uglier and considerably buggier if we forced this method, and with the overwhelming popularity of the FPS bypass the past 2 years, we decided to just roll with it and keep it normal. For the flex though, Pablohh said he wanted to verify the level on 240hz.
The estimated difficulty is unknown, but it is hard, really hard.
Part Gameplay:
0:14 - 0:37 (Pennutoh)
0:37 - 0:52 (Spamdrew128)
0:52 - 1:08 (Stormfly)
1:08 - 1:23 (Licen)

1:23 - 1:39 ( Magpipe )

this level has more frame perfects than the amount of stars i have
yes
Why is this so true
im afraid to ask, but how much is it?
Bro, video hasnt started yet xD

Was a pleasure to help with and record this level! Everyone did an amazing job! I look forward to working together again...
Hi
Hi
yay funk showcase💀💀💀
Hi
Go, my bro! You are the best GD players! We luv u
Mindcap is literally the reason I still have faith in megacollabs, this slaps
Ikr also how no comments this is literally yoried
Preach
facts
Which part is his?
@@kirion2109what about looking at the description before commenting
MindCap went from a random dude hosting another whatever extreme demon with a greek letter as its name, to the most prolific and creative collab host the game has ever seen imo. Hell of a journey.
He went from hosting greek letters to building cities
Don’t do Gamma sigma and omega like that lol
Mindcap
Pros:
Iconic
Unique
The best collab creator
Spends years
Cons:
Collab level
@@dingle37 Actually i love sigma and omega, gamma is the meh one but it's not inherently bad to be his first megacollab
@@teamok1025lol i think most ppl forgot about collab level
This is probably one of the most original levels in the game. It has personality and I'm so hyped to this to get verified. Well done to all the creators who made this masterpiece.
Reminds me of a modern Acropolis with the timings and tightness
WRONG, Slaughterhouse, nothing is more original
@@mallex9310nah man you know what's original? fairydust 💀
@@mallex9310 -🤓
you can find a comment like this on almost every extreme showcase
Glad I could at least get the layout finished! great job to everyone involved.
Deimos mad
Man*
ayo Hybrid I reckon you should give BlaZe a shoutout even though he probably doesn't play anymore.
at least you hosted my favorite top 20 deimos
That's a lot of spike abuse
I just realized that the "2.2 soon" sign at 2:12 was actually a reference to the level Falling Up by KrmaL, in which it had a similar looking sign saying "2.1 soon". The subtle details and the originality makes this level my favorite upcoming top level.
Also the last wave part is amazing! I love how the street lights actually influence the structures' movement.
Cool
well guess what
2.2 NOW
This level hits my interests in every direction this is so big ♡
Yo it's the man the myth the legend
Yo, devin, was up
the previews and the teasers are sick af, i cant wait for this
ok
@@Gruhbb I CARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hate this level already

A top level being only 0.5x speed is a simple concept, but Heliopolis pulls it off so good. Good job to everyone who partook in this
yes
Acropolis
Mans completely disregarding silent acropolis, the level this one got their inspiration from 😂
@@BIGGD214 thats not a top level thats an impossible level
@@pcxgaming44 it's literally being decorated rn and soon to be verified
I will honestly be amazed if anyone can consistently manage the robot gameplay I made for this.
Stormfly comment with no replies???😅😅
@@Gizmorsyeah
hi stormfly
lol yeah
It's insane how pablohh manages to beat that robot, it's absolutely impossible for me ._.
With projects like this and LIMBO, its safe to say MindCap has cemented himself as one of the most creative and intriguing creators this game will ever see. I look forward to future projects that will shock the community again and again!
Don't forget Every End. Despite it being so simple, it's still so interesting
This level is absolutely amazing and intricate! I look forward to see this level getting verified and challenging the top players who are all so 4x wave reliant
yes
Impossible to cursed
4x mini wave*
Maybe it's the fact that modern gameplay has become 4x wave and timings because it's more fun than quirky gimmick gameplay.
@@geodom85yt40Boring as shit though and extremely repetitive
I appreciate the speed limit sign actually being the speed the gameplay is at. Fantastic touch.

great vibe

This level turned out so perfect in terms of theming. It feels so specific and specially crafted for what it wishes to convey. This feels like a place you’re not supposed to be, where machinery is outdated and vegetation covers the expanse of the area you traverse. There’s an odd but really cool vibe, especially in the ending parts, about being in a familiar and public place, but in areas that are hidden away from the rest of the city, and this level gets it just right with the way it seeks to hide the backgrounds behind all of the clutter you have to force yourself through, and makes you a subject of the external things happening around you. REALLY awesome job Mindcap, you put so much care into hosting your projects it’s actually insane.
This level certainly live up to pretty much everyone's expectations. I'm glad this turned out the way it is. The creator roster was something else, as well as Pablohh being in there, haven't heard that name in a while. Good luck to them on verifying this!
ang
why are you here don’t you upload videos of dead bodies
lified
Mindcap, I’ve been here since Every End. I can finally say that you may have potential to earn creator points.
i've been here since heliopolis - full level showcase
to say newgen is an understatement in this sense
THE NOSTALGIA FROM THIS SONGGGGGG
I remember the days of Mario Forever and Apoplexy Tanks like omg those were the days
I'm so happy this song is getting used, what an amazing and atmospheric level for it
i was searching for this comment !! old good days
Wow, does anyone else remember Mario Forever? oh nostalgia......
The game was released in 2004 i remember playing the game in like 2008/9 or smth shits insane
I love how this level turned from doomed area to EGYPT 🗣️🔥🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬
Heliopolis is the old name of Egypt ( Google information )
@@R34lisk also a city that's called مصر الجديدة in arabic
@@thethingyofthething مصر الجديدة is Egypt now
But "مصر القديمة" Is heliopolis
This is definitely a worthy successor to Acropolis, no doubt in my mind. It’s the little things like “Speed limit 0.5” and the Falling up reference sign that really give this level it’s charm even beyond how incredible the design and theming of the whole thing is.
THEY ARE NOT RELATED THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ACROPOLIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@HeyItsOwen308 It’s very similar in concept and gameplay wise, being a tight corridor based timing demon entirely at 0.5 speed. He confirmed this in the description of the video. Also what’s with the aggression?

i love the final part so much, it has almost like a flash game aesthetic and the theme is so good
1:39 I like the explosions on the top left syncing with the drum, and blocks actually fall apart too, nice touch
everything smooth, i love this, this is the best top demon level
awesome work dude
look at it, the old stuff being demolished and being replaced by new stuff
this is so beautiful man, love it
yes
No one can makes levels like this, honestly this is one of the most original top demons ive seen. I really wanna this to came out.
You really wanna what?
@@viaquabeeto came out
@@MrMarcusGD Oh alr
nah people can definitely make levels like these, you just gotta find the right people
We NEED more parts or levels with the sort of feeling or immersion that 0:52 creates. It feels immersive in a really fascinating and incredible way.
This level overall feels like a step forward in the general creating sphere in terms of level theming and design, especially considering it’s only partially art-focused.
It feels like an abandoned structure in a really weirdly alternate-reality-authentic and grounded kinda way.
I literally felt the wind lol
this level is truely unique, from the start being a barren wasteland to the end being a functional living society. The changes are defenitely interesting from the green to the grey then the moving parts. Especially that swing copter section with the pillars being built while your going through the heliopolis.
This level is unreal. I’ve seen plenty of levels that have impressed me visually, but this has probably the craziest vibe in a level period. I fucking adore this.
Rewatching this and noticing all the little touches like “Speed Limit 0.5” at 2:05. Absolutely love it. This levels got so much charm and personality man
On my first viewing of this level, I would be lying if I said I was not disappointed at this initially. To me, the huge shift from desolate green cityscape to a more bright and optimistic yellow and brown color scheme didn't seem like it clicks the first time, but honestly viewing this a few more times, I think you guys nailed the whole thing
Seeing a level so unique in every aspect, from gameplay, decoration and even music is so incredible. Congrats MindCap and the others on making such a good level and good luck to Pablohh who will be verifying this level. You succesifully made the hardest timing demon.
I was here for the premiere, and honestly I'm SOOO happy I was!
Incredible level, you guys all did such an amazing job :D
We got arguably the hardest frame perfect and the hardest memory made by the same man.
I dont this so if this level is a memory demon
This isn’t a memory demon it’s the frame perfect one
This level has so many tiny little touches that make it so interesting to watch, like the accurate speed limit signs, the bloom from the sun fading in and out, the lightning lighting up the scenery in the background. You people are way too creative.
Glad that now we know where Mindcap truly lives at the 2nd half of this level.
Everything done with this level is absolutely fantastic. Congratulations on all who participated!
bangerrrr
i love banging the errrr
God damn, this entire level is amazing. Wasnt expecting to see the full showcase today, but my eyes have been blessed. Amazing! ❤
this is awesome!! i didnt expect this to turn out THAT good! Great job to everyone involved!
2:12 right there we can see the "2.2 soon.." like they did in Falling up with the "2.1 Soon..."
the decorators didnt had the right to decorate like gods
Yo mindcap theres these weird people called Egyptians that copied your plushie design and made these big houses outta them, I think you should copyright claim those guys
yea like they are 5k years old, WE NEED TO COPYRIGHT THEM
they've been doing this illegal business for centuries, we can't let them go on like this!
This is my favourite comment of all time
So beyond sick, i love levels with unique atmospheres like this one
I love how this level literally tells a story while doing extremely hard gameplay, the minor details in the background and deco itself is amazing, like the end where the level literally comes to life, I think you did an amazing job
I am sorry that the lower refresh rate difficulty scaling didn't work, but I'm glad you didn't sacrifice the quality of the level over it. Unfortunate that we won't have the chance for that sort of difficulty after 2.2, but the benefits of the change obviously outweigh the drawbacks.
This level looks phenomenal
The way the visuals combine with the music to convey the change in tone is awesome.
This level looks amazing! There is something about the decoration that I just really like.
This is my favorite level ever, I’ve been watching this level ever since people were posting their parts, I’ve always held it close to my heart, and it did not disappoint at all
I really miss the easier on lower refresh rates thing. It really made the level stand out from the crowd. I hope at one point something like that could be done for a top 1 because it’s a SUPER unique idea and would challenge literally everyone finally
Unique, but a bad idea, because by lowering refresh rate you're just making inputs less accurate and more randomised and this wouldn't be fun to anyone.
@@ERRR0RR but it would be so cool to have a top 1 where everyone has to play on 60
@ERRR0RR Would be nice, a 60fps level could be an amazing top 1 as it could be beatable by anyone, and it could be the first top 1 to be beaten by a mobile player
Well idk if it’d be the first mobile top 1 completion but it would be the first one in years
@50Steaks68 the first post 1.9, before steam release all top 1s were on mobile technically.
This is definitely one of the coolest top levels in a while. Good luck to the verifier!
Can't believe it's finally finished, it looks amazing, i really like that lighting effect in 1:54, and the mini details like the speed limit sign being 0.5 in 2:05 and the 2.2 coming soon poster in 2:12, all of you did an amazing job 🔥🔥
World 8-2 and 8-4 theme song
yes
The level looks awesome Heliopolis
I saw the level layout and was so hyped for it, And now it looks insane to beat. Good luck Pablohh...
Best top 10 coming out, this is so creative and well done. Every part has attention to detail and some parts are just stunning. Brilliant.
TOP TEN? ITS TOP FIVE TO TOP ONE
honestly one of the best top 1's we've ever had
This level has to be one of most unique things on GD to date, we hope to see more things like this
I aint gon lie i quit GD like a couple months ago and when i saw this on the top of my fyp i was so happy, thats the vibe ur lvls give off btw :))
Banger song. Banger deco. Weird quirky gameplay. Excited for verification.
I love Mindcap getting nobodies as verifiers. Truly based
I don't know what you're talking about since Pablohh is a legend in the community, if anything he's the complete opposite of a nobody.
@@OfficialTrollface listen I may be stupid, but ig my point still stands for Every End and Limbo
@@rageldith9600Yeah nobody knew BGram until he verified Limbo.
The best mindcap level, cant wait to play this
Limbo: hold my beer
thats so cool oml wow. good job to everyone that worked on this!!
YOOOOOO, ive been waiting for this for so long. This seems absurdly difficult, and the deco was kinda confusing me towards the end a bit. I love the contrast between the beginning of the level and the end and honestly, i think it has definetly lived up to the hype
this gonna be a banger
yes
Mindcap is one of the greatest creators in gd rn
hosts*
This level looks IMPECCABLE, I love everything about this, such a sick theme.
Mindcap always deliviring.
Amazing, Amazing, AMAZING Collab! You can really feel the progression, starting off cluttered and kind of disorganized, giving of the feel of an abandoned city. But as the level goes on, it becomes more lively, with more movements and detail, almost as if the city is being restored. My only complaint is that I kind of don't like how sharp the flashes at 1:45 are, but HOLY man did everyone on this collab deliver!
those are what actual flash explosions look like, and it’s also incredibly fitting to the song
design couldn’t have been done any better, especially in the second half
Ship part was cool
ikr
I really like this level! It’s got it’s own little cool original gameplay bits that makes it stand out from other top levels along with its unique decoration. Can’t wait for this to get verified. The song is an absolute banger
It's like a city rejuvinating back to life, or some sort of blast to the past to current day
Absolute heat, the theme of the level is carried perfectly, and the song fits like a glove
This level is gonna be 🔥🔥
yes
🔥 in the 🕳️
I forgot this was happening, congrats on the level it turned out even better than I expected.
Please don't nerf this 😢
(My opinion) this is the best thematic, atmosphere top 1 demon in gd!
been looking forward to see this level for almost 3 years wow and its done!
Brazenly displaying the extremely personal love and care he meticulously hammers into all of his creations, 'Heliopolis' serves to cement MindCap's legacy as the man who brings an elevated definition to the position of 'host'.
Only Mindcap can create the most original top 10 lvl
Hi
@@rodri952_2hi
yes
agree, the idea is just a fire 🔥
finally its finished, good luck to Pablohh on verification!

I really like this level and it's a great competitor for flamewall. Great job mindcap. The new era for demons is here
we have the 4 elements
flamewall - fire
tidal wave - water
heliopolis - earth
ascension to heaven - air
Great job for the creators of this level, well made ❤

can anybody tell me what happened to returon0
Cancelled because it might drain mindcap's mentally
Also some creator qui I guess
@@wwatermelon15revived in 2.2!!

Unfortunately this is just the level showcase
ok totally verified its a showcase
Tbh, I wanted the style of this level to be just like the part made by StarkyTheSalad.
When I watched the layout, I saw a huge potential on this level. Then when I watched the first preview, where StarkyTheSalad's part was showcased, it completely blew my mind. It was even better than I imagined. The structures, the atmosphere, the theme, the deco, the effects, and the climax when the pitch upped a bit, everything was on the top! Even the gameplay was readable and the part was clean enough to understand the difference between the deco and the actual gameplay.
Then when I saw this… the next parts weren't as good as I expected. The next part literally became static… the deco and the structures were mid and even the effects were… meh. Spider part was no exception.
The following parts were just the same. The deco started to overflow the gameplay, making it unreadable and the deco didn't make the difference between the deco and the gameplay. I watched this twice and I still can't see the gameplay. Even that, it got completely out of the theme (the sunless city, just like it was said in 1st preview description). The sun effects are really neat, though. But instead of having some kind of destroyed forsaken city with no sun, no life, no colours, just some kind of lost temple… no, it added some cars moving around. It gave life and colours to what it wasn't even supposed to have. Although the deco is really good, it shouldn't be there.
I wish the entire level was just like StarkyTheSalad's part, even with the shift of the green colour to grey.
Ok… uhm… I know it sounds really rude, but I didn't mean it, really. This was just my opinion, I really don't know if the level was supposed to be this or not. Besides, everyone did a great job out here! The deco is still great, even with the flaws told before.
[Edit] rip Icedcave's part :_(
It seems like they changed the theming from "sunless city" to "sunrise city" where it starts of with the same dark atmosphere, but gets brighter as the sun rises with the destroyed and abandoned city being rebuilt and inhabited again and I personally really like that theme. I can't say too much about the gameplay not being well readable since I'm not playing these kinds of levels, but it's probably not a big issue as it is top extreme demon where the players probably know every detail after thousands of attempts.
This is by far your best level! Phenomenal!!!!!
This is by far one of my favourite levels. The gameplay is extremely unique, and the decoration is soo good
Yes.
Man this level looks like slow hell lmao gl on veryfing that Pablohh ! And also gg to all the team that made this level come to life it looks incredible
man the signs in the end of the level are so nostalgic. i remember growing up in heliopolis and waiting for traffic to clear up while seeing the signs
Siiiiiiiiiiickk bro, Its actually finished. Love the progression aswell in the deco, good job :)
I love the levels energy and theme, it should get epic
and good luck Pablohh
I keep rewatching this level more and more. It truly captured the place in my heart with it's music and mesmerizing gameplay. I just love it. This incomparable mystic spirit of abandoned city 👻
