Deadlocked v3 is a 2.0 solo Insane Demon created, verified, and published by Noriega. As its name suggests, it is a remake of Deadlocked. The level is considered a Hard or Insane Demon due to its tricky mixed dual segments, confusing ship sequences, and plenty of memory sections.
Gameplay[]
The level starts with a difficult cube section that turns into a brief mini wave segment. These transitions of game modes repeat three times until the ship sequence. Here, the player can notice a slowly moving "custom" background while progressing through the level.
Next is a difficult ship sequence, which is confusing due to the abundance of moving and rotating/spinning "cubes" in the sequence. There are also gravity and teleportation portals that attempt to throw the player off guard.
There is then a ball segment, which is also difficult due to the number of sudden moving platforms and invisible spikes. Then the player will turn into a ship again. The cubes are now moving in a circle rather than in a random pattern. The player's speed will change into slow as they will be surrounded by a slow-moving platform of spikes.
Next, the player enters a simple cube section, which can be done with simple precise timings. After that are many difficult and confusing mixed dual segments consisting of a robot and cube and requires extremely precise timing as the player must control the robot's jump height and hit the green orbs to change gravity. The next dual section is a dual ball section, which is moderately difficult but can be cleared with simple timing and practice.
Next is a normal-speed but hard cube section, where the player can be confused by the unnoticed hidden jump orbs and change of jump orbs by swapping them. The player will meet a teleportation portal leading into a brief, simple mini cube section. Then, back to the normal cube part. The supposed "water" platform will move down to accompany the player. Then, the player will transition into a moderately difficult robot segment. The jump orbs are now moving altogether to confuse the player. Also, the platforms will move and confuse them too.
The player gets teleported into a tricky ship sequence, quite different from the original Deadlocked. After the player passes the first teleportation portal in the ship sequence, the supposed "boss" will appear. The player will meet two routes a few times in this ship sequence; however, one leads to a dead-end as the boss will fire lasers at the player. There are also saw-blades and monsters that need to be avoided.
Next is a cube section, similar to the previous cube sections, but this one requires memory. The player will turn into a dual section, as the words: "Ready?" will appear while the screen fades to black.
The next part is considered one of the hardest parts, an extremely hard mixed dual of different forms. Also, there is the final boss, which is much different from the first one. The boss will now try to crush the player with its "spike" cube. The first dual is a cube section that requires crucial timing. Next is a mixed dual robot and ship similar to Ditched Machine. Next is a cube/robot mixed dual-segment, similar to the first mixed dual section. Then, there is a mixed dual of mini-wave and robot, which is difficult as the player needs to control the wave and the robot while avoiding hazards. Then, the next dual is a mixed UFO and robot but is difficult as well, then a mixed dual of a ball and robot. The final dual is a ship section where the player must go up or else they will crash as the "boss" fires its last projectile, a laser beam. The screen then fades to white.
The last part is a simple ship sequence. Here, there are stars in the background, and the player must avoid invisible saw-blades. After that, the level ends with the player greeted with the creator's name and a: 'GG' as the screen fades to white and then black.
User coins[]
- The first user coin is found in the sixth cube section, at 44%. There are two invisible blue orbs in a pit of spikes. If the player hits both orbs, the first coin will appear to collect.
- The second user coin is located at 75% in the dual segment. After the screen fades to black, the player must jump into the coin and get it with ease. However, they must collect the keys before unlocking the route to the coin.
- The third and final user coin is located at 95%, above a small invisible saw-blade. The player must be careful about getting it as well.
