Lyrics[]

Here are the lyrics the male singer sings in the soundtrack:

It’s not the world that changes,
but the weight of my mind.

There’s better days ahead than
those we’re leaving behind.

You know I love you and
that nothing’s changing my mind.

There’s nothing in the way in front of you.

Difficulty[]

  • The West has a straightforward path, however, the shift of different landscapes may distract players.
  • Towards the end, the screen occasionally fades to black for a few seconds as a transition; hence, may be confusing at times. Focus on the path and listen carefully to the soundtrack.

Notes For Gems[]

Gems Difficulty
2 Easy
(1.0 stars)
5 Moderately Easy

10 Somewhat Average
(2.0 stars)

Strategy[]

  • Since the path has been set, take advantage of it and focus on the path rather than the music.
  • As mentioned, there are pitch black moments and when vision is restored, there will be turns. Be careful when vision fades to black.

Trivia[]

  • The West is the first level in which the scenery transitions in a rapid pace. The second level to do so is The Racing.
  • The West is a mix of western and pop acoustic music.
  • The West is inspired by the Wild West.
  • The canyons on the level icon resemble cowboy hats.
  • The West is the fourth level to feature blackout teleportation.
    • Unlike The Desert, if you tap while you are being teleported, the line will crash since the path is narrow.
    • When being teleported, there are some slight nods to other levels in the changes of scenery.
      • The first teleportation could be a nod to The Maze, judging from the scenery with the bushes and the rocky mountain.
      • The second teleportation could be a nod to either The Chinese Garden (judging from the lily pads and the fish) or Lake of Opportunity from Through The Fog!.
      • The third teleportation could be a nod to The Beach by the beach chairs and sand.
      • The fourth teleportation could be a nod to either The Spring or The Winter by the trees and the flowers.
        • However, the fourth teleportation comes back to where 60% left off, with the same campfire and tent.
  • The West is the sixth level to feature vocal accompaniment, being a solo by a male singer.
  • The West is the second level in which the line starts by facing the left. The first is The Desert.
  • There was a bug where, in the level, the 80% marker is displayed twice. There is also another bug where the main light-oranged path cannot be seen in the whole level, increasing its difficulty.
  • The sky can be seen moving.
    • When playing in widescreen, the sky only covers the middle, possibly because the level wasn't meant to be played in widescreen in the first place.
      • This was fixed later on.
  • The line changes from lilac to red after the first blackout(~68%), red to bright yellow, after the second blackout(~71%), bright yellow to orange after the third blackout(~80%), and orange back to lilac after the fourth blackout(~88%).
  • In beta versions of this level, the levels that you transition to where way different (The levels were [in order] “The Clock”, “The Autumn”, “The Piano”)

Percentage Markers[]

  • The 10% marker is located on the right side of the path by some cactus trees.
  • The 20% marker can be seen broad on the left side of the path.
  • The 30% marker is on a passing building.
  • The 40% marker will spawn on the right side of the map after you leave the town.
  • The 50% will spawn and despawn on the right side of the map.
  • The 60% marker is shown to the left of the second crown at the green part.
  • The 70% marker is shown under bushes at the cliff part.
  • The 80% marker is by a sea-star after the second blackout.
  • The 90% marker is on the left of the path after the third blackout.
  • The 100% marker is not shown. But the flowers could represent it.
