code:Leviathan — EVO 8

• ▸code:Leviathan is a kanone track cataloged at MIN 5, EVO 8, ULT 11 and FBD 14 (v1.0.2c) — EVO 8 is its second tier and the level most players clear first.
• ▸The capture is a first attempt: the detail screen prints HIGH SCORE —, the result card's DIFFERENCE equals the whole score, and the run ends DIVE CLEARED, rank AA, 096'946'434.
• ▸The card's rows add to 1,244 — EXACT 1096 + 92, NEAR 36, BREAK 20 — exactly the catalog's EVO split: tap 223 + hold 607 + field 269 + flick 145.
• ▸Honest scope: the run stamps Assist Mode Enabled, the combo broke four times on the way up, and the capture's live badge was patched out of every still (coordinates in the page source).

Every frame on this page comes from Trappy's code:Leviathan EVO 8 sightread: a full-screen capture of one continuous first attempt — atmospheric cold open, song detail, CONNECT, dive, result. The in-play panel pins the run at EVO 8, SPEED 7.00, and the upload carries no commentary track.

Disclosure: the capture ships with a live-stream badge pinned to its left edge; it is a recorder overlay, not game UI, and it was measured on this upload's own frames and patched out of every still on this page — the embedded video itself is untouched. The sightread stamps Assist Mode Enabled on its CONNECT strip; this page quotes the label as shown and does not document Assist Mode. For a backup angle, Spectral's full-game longplay contains this chart segment and is credited here only — its axis runs across the whole setlist, so no frame on this page comes from it. Deep-link seconds can land a frame or two off the exact moment; every still was verified against its own HUD counter.

code:Leviathan's catalog entry, straight from the site's song database (community-wiki data, game version 1.0.2c). Levels are documented for all four tiers; the footage on this page covers the EVO 8 chart — highlighted below, the tier most players clear before touching ULT 11 or the FBD 14 ceiling.

The catalog documents note splits down to EVO, and the EVO row is the one this page's result card checks against: tap 223 + hold 607 + field 269 + flick 145 = 1,244 — the exact number the card's four judgement rows add to. The FBD split isn't published yet (the ULT 11 row is the deepest documented).

Thirteen frames, one lesson each: what the detail screen promises, how the dive opens, where the holds and hex rings test hand division — and where a first read honestly breaks. Timestamps quote the source video at the shown moment.

1. 1

   Find the chart: EVOLVED 8, no score banked

   The song detail screen lists code:Leviathan by kanone — jacket art credited to NOMISAKI — with a teal chip reading 8 / DIFFICULTY EVOLVED / HIGH SCORE —. That dash is the run's first receipt: nothing banked on this chart yet. The CONNECT strip on the right shows NIA and KEATS with KEATS selected, stamped Assist Mode Enabled.

   

2. 2

   The dive opens at zero

   The highway loads empty at SCORE 000'000'000, NIA and KEATS holding the top corners, and the in-play panel pins the scope for everything that follows: code:Leviathan, kanone, EVO 8, SPEED 7.00. The lane rails carry the player's own key hints — A/S/D/F with German Umschalt and Leer on the outer edges. Four lanes, two outer rails: this is the whole map you defend.

   

3. 3

   The opening run: single beams, combo 35

   The first statement is a purple beam walking down one lane with a yellow trace on the right rail — counter 002'813'307, combo 35. EVO 8 opens readable: one shape at a time, at a pace that lets you place fingers instead of reacting. Use this stretch to settle the wrist; the chart banks its difficulty later.

   

4. 4

   The first break lands inside a minute

   Counter 005'169'009 and the combo sits at 4 — a wide purple hold is riding the line while the reset prints where a first read misjudged the hand-off. This is the sightread being honest: EVO 8's holds overlap streams early, and the fix is committing the plant finger before the next beam arrives, not chasing the dropped note.

   

5. 5

   Recovery: the climb back to 195

   At 020'446'722 the counter reads combo 195 under an EXACT tag — the longest clean run of the attempt, built one lane at a time through the red encounter bloom. A red opponent chip rides the left rail here. The lesson: after a reset, narrow your focus to the leading edge of each shape and let the count rebuild itself.

   

6. 6

   Flicks enter over the streams

   Counter 035'081'483, combo 133: a yellow flick arrow and a green triangle fall over the lanes while two EXACT tags hold the line. The chart's flick vocabulary arrives mid-song, layered over falling streams — flick on the arrow's beat, not the note's, or the drift the next frame shows is where it lands.

   

7. 7

   NEAR over LATE: the drift, caught

   The frame this page earns its honesty from: at 037'007'793 a NEAR sits above a LATE beside a clean EXACT — a cyan wide hold being carried a beat behind the line. NEARs cost far less than BREAKs but they flag the hand slowing; when one prints over a hold, re-plant on the next beat instead of dragging the finger through.

   

8. 8

   Gold hexagon rings mark the landing

   Counter 044'439'062, combo 55: gold hexagon rings bloom at the line under a white beam while EXACT EXACT holds. The rings are the chart's landing lights — they mark where a dense stretch wants the hand, and reading them a bar early is what keeps the mid-song holds from stacking misses.

   

9. 9

   Triple EXACT through the burst

   At 059'462'588 three EXACT tags land across the lanes as a white burst fires at the line — combo 9, freshly reset again. The back half alternates like this: a dense burst that breaks the link, then a readable triple that gives it back. Surviving EVO 8 is treating each burst as its own short song, not a continuation of the last.

   

10. 10

    The signature: twin wide holds, side by side

    Counter 073'570'785, combo 76, and the chart sets its exam: a purple wide hold over A/S and a pink wide hold over D/F running in parallel while EXACT tags print between them. Both plant fingers stay down; everything else plays around them. This is where EVO 8 asks for independent hands — and where most of the run's BREAKs were paid.

    

11. 11

    Endgame: the last wide hold at 225

    Counter 094'750'749, combo 225 — the longest link of the night — and one final wide hold hugs the left rail while the counter runs toward 096'946'434. The chart gives its last stretch back to the player: one shape, one rail, keep the plant. The closing bars still cost the run a reset before the end, which the card will show.

    

12. 12

    The highway goes dark at 096'946'434

    The last notes land, the encounter art fades and the highway darkens with the counter frozen at 096'946'434 — 1,244 judgments later. Nothing left on the board, gauge alive, DIVE CLEARED one frame away. On the tier most players actually clear, this is the moment the chart stops being a wall and becomes a milestone.

    

13. 13

    Read the result: AA, and the math closes

    The DIVE RESULT card confirms everything: rank AA at 096'946'434, EXACT split into 1096 and 92, NEAR 36, BREAK 20 — 1,244 judgments, the catalog's EVO total to the note — with MAX LINK 246, MISS GAUGE 15, the HIGH SCORE box left empty and DIFFERENCE printing the full +096'946'434. DIVE CLEARED. First attempt, first bank: the number on the card is the number on the chart.
