I also just wish they would include a save point for gnasty gnorc. Having to restart from the beginning everytime i fall into the lava while chasing gnasty was....just ugh

I've beaten Spyro 1 reignited 10 times now,and i do think that Tree Tops gets better over time. It went from being"the most horrible level of all time"to one of Spyro 1's best levels. It has such a unique design and atmosphere.

The Gnasty Gnorc stage seemed tough at first, but it's surprisingly easy when you figure out how to beat it. The keys can be grabbed without really chasing the holders, by charging and shooting fire in the direction they go from their original starting points. Hitting Gnorc the first time is a matter of hitting him within about 2 seconds after he lands on the platform at the top of the track, and the second and final hit on him is just waiting for you at the end of the lava.

Your voice is pleasant and calm to listen to. Great video!

I'm sorry if I chatted to much I just wanted to tell you my opinion

I HATED Night Flight. Took the most tries to win out of all the other flights.
I 100% agree with that choice - it being the worst.
I did rings, gates, chests, and lanterns, but just BARELY got the last one. I spammed firebreath as I was going to it, crossing my fingers that I'd get that sliver of a hit box. 0.7 seconds left... Good grief! :C

And on a separate note, for Tree tops, you either love it or hate it. Depends on how you feel for the challenge it brings.

I am loving these videos! Can't wait for the best ones, and the 2 other games:)

I like how you referenced Wumpalewis's spyro video, I love the spyro and crash community here on YT

Dark hollow is actually my favourite level in the original ps1 version of spyro I loved that music and night time atmosphere I feel the same way about stone Hill I remember getting the key on my first try then accidentally flying into the return home hub portal due to bad placement resulting in having to replay the stage again.

Artisans is my favourite hub world in spyro 1 I enjoyed flaming and charging the gnorcs the music also always gets you pumped and excited to continue on your adventure also like sunrise spring it has good music and beautiful atmosphere.

Tree tops really does sucks though that one harbor level with the gnorcs and there paint guns in the remake is terrible cheap enemy placement unfairly kills you every time very frustrating.

I agree with you about Toasty although I'd put it higher for the atmospheric music and nostalgia. Considering it was the first boss of the game I think the devs could have chucked us a bit more fodder.

I agree with many of your picks, but for me Tree Tops must be in the top 5 Spyro 1 levels, it's just so unique and fun and has a great atmosphere. Stone Hill, Dark Hollow and Artisans are also among my favorites, maybe partly because of nostalgy. I would have instead put Misty Bog near the bottom.

tree tops is my favorite course in the original trilogy

Amazing video! I think you’re a very underrated YouTuber! My least favourite level is probably Dry Canyon. (Excluding the flying levels which I really don’t like). As you mentioned there is a lot of climbing and repetitive sections and I never have really been keen on the desert themed worlds in video games. But I still really like this level more than I hate it because it’s Spyro and every level is pretty great!

Here’s the thing about Dr. Shemp. There is an annoying skill point called “Perfect “.  Meaning you can’t tale a single hit from him.  I hate perfectionism!

I agree with Stone hill! I always make it the last one.

Terrace Village! <3 i love whole area around shock fields. TV is my top 15 levels at least

Great job on this ranking, Rebel!  It’s hard for me to pick any least favorite levels in Spyro 1 as I’ve grown fond of them over the years.
But I only have a few least favorites: Gnorc Gnexus ( too small and underwhelming of a hub world), Crystal Flight, and Haunted Towers.  Tree Tops was originally my least favorite, but after figuring out the whole procedure of traversing, it’s now one of my favorites and one of the most beautiful and unique of all the Beast Makers levels, especially with that Aurora Borealis light in the green skies.

But again, even though these are my least favorites, I still enjoy them.

Dark Hollow is one of my favorite levels, due to the night sky and calming music.  Loved that they made it a library in the remake - nice touch!

Can’t wait for the next level ranking, Rebel!

What other videos and retrospectives do you plan to do after the Spyro videos, Rebel?

Beastmakers looks great and has unique atmoshpere imo
