Review: The Really Wheely Fun Level - LittleBigExo

This is a review for the level The Really Wheely Fun Level by creator LittleBigExo.
PROS:
The premise is simple. Jump in a wheel grab on a make your way across the level. The creator mixes it up by having different wheels(i.e. grab the side that says "L" and go left, grab the side that says "R" and go right.)

This was a neat concept that was fun for a bit once things got rolling (sorry i had to) At first I was annoyed that I kept dieing cuz I was spinning to fast. But once I saw that that wasn't the point made it much more enjoyable.
CONS:
The level loses marks for having too many glitches. Well there isn't really a lot but it was annoying getting stuck on something or having the wheel be destroyed. The level itself didn't look that good and there was no real theme to it. Forgettable one might say. Also I hated how sporadic the music was there was always something different playing in each section and there was no cosistency to the level.
ADVICE:
You asked if I would finish the level and I did. I came in second after you. I think the biggest problem is that people would end up dieing because of going to fast. (some also might have been worried about the game-breaking glitch i know i was) People seem to just quit if they can't figure out something right away. So maybe a little bit more info on what you are actually suppose to do.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
I liked the last wheel the most. It's the one that gave me the most pleasure. (that sounds dirty) The rising platform section was nice but i did find the wheels broke too much. Another thing why some people wouldn't finish the level. You have some good ideas but they aren't amazing. Maybe make an entire level dedicated to the last wheel. Where you have to manuever around things and such.
Length: Short
Difficulty: Easy. there is no real threat cuz you are in a wheel...unless it breaks.
Replayability: None i spun around a bunch, that's about it.
Funness: The last wheel did make me smile as i tried to fly to the top to get points. but the rest was mediocre
Score: 3/10
