This is my latest addition to the Spiralizer series of survival challenges. For those unfamiliar, you're inside a rotating maze, and you have to collect points and avoid the various dangers within (this time lasers) for as long as possible. Here's some details:

It's in SPACE! With stars and asteroids and other spacey stuff.
No gravity! You control a sackbot who can float around freely, with a handy boost button to get you around the maze quickly. It's like swimming, but without water. So not like swimming at all.
This maze is without any doubt the most complex thing I've ever made. It's made up of 9 rotating layers, all of which rotate independantly. Every 20 seconds parts of the maze may randomly change direction. And that's not all - the outside of the maze, the entire background, a load of cogs, lasers and even more behind the scenes stuff are also all rotating. It was a nightmare to create.
The main survival gameplay is focused on the lasers. It starts off simple, with one laser slowly rotating around the maze, destroying everything in its path. After 40 seconds, it'll change direction, and an extra laser will appear. Every additional 40 seconds the lasers will change direction and the gap between them will close, slowly shrinking the gameplay area. There are 7 colour-coded stages of difficulty. Anyone who makes it to the Orange stage with only 1 quarter of the maze left and still manages to stay alive... well, you're better than I am.

Have a play, let me know what you think. I did finish this level around a month ago (I've been patiently waiting for scoreboards to return), and I have absolutley no idea how the level works any more of what any of the logic does, so making any major changes isn't something I plan to do. I'm done with this level. It's been sitting on my moon in various states of unfinishedness for half a year. However, I would still love to hear any feedback, as I can take it all on board for future creations.

Enjoy!
