surprised to see no one mention this but falling up has the perfect example of a climactic finish in my mind, especially if you agree with the theory that it's themed around death
Serpents Wrath has such an awesome ending. theres TWO different bossfights that can happen, each with unique and randomized attacks that you have to react to on-the-fly
most ppl seem to know this as “the hard coin level”, but its SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT. truly an awesome and unique experience in gd
honestly don't agree with lit fuse, level's good but it just kinda ends suddenly out of nowhere, the last part of it is just like any other part of the drop
Yatagarasu, Future Demoness (for all the wrong reasons), Clarity, Sirius, Rose (TheDevon), Swirling Fire, CICADA3302, Nhelv, Limbo, Dark Travel, The Towerinator, and Black Blizzard
can't think of THAT many tbh. I would say definitely limbo and future funk are the most memorable.
ig freedom08's, bloodlust's and stalemate redux's endings bounced around in my mind at one point too.
not saying any of those are super amazing levels they just have the endings i remember
LIMBO, Bloodbath, last wave and ball click of Tartarus/Acheron, Clutterfunk, Yatagarasu, Nine Circles, Sonic Wave, Future Funk, B, The Ultimate Phase, Grains of Salt, maybe Stereo Extremeness, Slaughterhouse, 8o, Acropolis, Sakupen Hell ever since EvW's death, Black Blizzard, Phobos/Endlevel Deimos.
Do you care about gameplay for this or just atmosphere? Celestial Caverns by Th04 and Subwoofer has a really good ending imo but the gameplay is kind of lackluster.
On another note, ritual by LavonAffair has an incredible ending, but is similar to Death Moon so could maybe be seen as unoriginal
the ending to an absolute gauntlet of a level, matches the triumphant atmosphere of the song, memorable gameplay (especially the wave and the last green orb), and it really feels like the final skill check of a (former) top 1 without blending in with every other part of the level
