Basically:

> This mod allows your inputs to register in between visual frames, which drastically increases input precision on low framerates like 60FPS.

There has been some debate as to whether or not this is cheating. The official demonlist has allowed it and a lot of skilled players are ok with it, while other people (including RobTop) say it is a cheat.

Do you think it is a cheat or not?

These things normally take months but I guess this only took 5 days, and I don't know how

I apparently spent 87 hours on it, so go check it out! It features unique p-speed mechanics that I haven't seen in other levels.

This took me a long time, 8 months and nearly 10000 attempts from zero, but I did it. I know this community is pretty dead but I do check up on it regularly to see if I need to do anything. If you want to hear more regularly from me here's my Mastodon, I tend to not post too much about Geometry Dash but I do post about it occasionally as well as other stuff.

As for other stuff I'm doing, I'm almost done with my next level and I'm trying to complete Night Rider. I just got 37-100 on Night Rider, which is a crazy run. As for my next level, all I have to complete is the backgrounds and air deco, then I'm done. What it's about will be a secret until its release, so stay tuned. I'll probably post about both of those when they are done.

Who do you think will win in each category?

!Video: Geometry Dash official level 'Dash' from 8% to 21%. // The 1x speed portal at 10%, after the second spider section is skipped by letting go of the dash orb early. // The level continues at 3x speed. The music goes out of sync. In the section where you have to hit yellow blocks, a red block is hit but the player still survives because of the high speed. // The 2x speed portal at 15%, on the first swing portal, is skipped with a precise jump on the last platform. // The swing section is done at 3x speed, and the video continues until the slow speed portal where the gameplay rotates. // The gameplay is in practice mode and spliced.

The video loads pretty badly on some clients so here's a link!

I've been working on this level since the day after 2.2 released, and it is finally ready. I've waited 6 ½ years to be able to build a level with new features. I hope you enjoy it.

If the level is off sync for you, I am aware of this, and I hope that the bugfix update addresses this. The video is synced, but that's because I adjusted the sync to better fit my PC (where I recorded it).

First part was a tiny little bit inspired by killbot's last ufo, the rest is some ammalgamation of bad ideas from the past, alcohol and extensive nefs because I'm bad at this game

In the laser part I am (sometimes) getting a glitch where the Thorn stops attacking. He still follows his movement pattern but doesn't release attacks of any kind.

I haven't been able to replicate the issue, but of has something to do with jumping near the edges and the laser buthing a fireball as it comes at you.

I think I did well for how quickly I created this level. Since 2.2 is potentially coming out soon, and I might not get another burst of motivation for a while, this will probably be my last 2.1 level.

I'm not surprised tbh

This came after a 250 attempt session where my previous best was 38%. There really is only 1 difficult part after 50%, though, so hopefully I'll be able to get through it to complete a new hardest.

Theory: October 22nd is in exactly 5 weeks, the most likely release date for October 2023. In the 10th anniversary video the "days since 2.1" glitches out at 2470 days, which is (16.01.2017 + 2470 days = 22.10.2023). 22 / 10 = 2.2 and GD started in 1.0 (10 without dot).

Hey there, I am looking for someone to take over this community and moderate it. If you're interested, just write a comment here, and soon I will transfer ownership.

Edit: Mods have been chosen

I think it's a pretty cool underground subway sort of scene. I could do more with the walls but I think that this is overall pretty neat

I didn't think this day would ever come

Pay attention to "Progresses" if you don't see it. Yes, I did practice beforehand, but this is still quite the feat, especially considering this is a fluke from 32% in an XL-length hard demon which led to a completion with less than 100 runs from 0%.

Rob posted 3 small clips, this is one of them (the other are very similar): https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/398627612299362306/1127356813692637284/radio3.mov

Link Controls might be enabled by default in 2.2:

!

Too bad my game crashed immediately after this (which is why there's artifacting, I took this screenshot from my recording), but at least I got video of the completion, which can be found right here.

You can't finish the level, but it's a neat skip

Often feels like my click is ignored, I can't get the timing right

I can input 7 digit song IDs in the Steam build of 2.1. Since when is this possible? Was there a secret patch or was it always there? It doesn't work on the Android version, though. It was said that it's fixed in 2.2, but it already seems so partly.

I haven't really continued building beyond improving on the part shown in the video in these past few months, however. I'm still unsure how exactly I should continue the level and its ideas.

(video previews seem to not work on lemmy.world, but the link should bring you to the video.)

For me, it's the shader triggers, camera controls, particle systems and all the new pixel art blocks

RobTop posted a picture with new Pixel Art, showing new Pixel enemies and weapons.

You might remember this thing from Sneak Peek 3:

Also, this:

First, he showed an image with new button Textures:

Then, he posted these 3 short Clips:

And there's more:

For me, I enjoy wave and ship the most, but I can't really get going with spider and cube. With UFO, you can get into situations where you'd need to click 0.5 times, those deaths don't feel great :D When 2.2 will come out, time will tell how Swingcopter will work out. The custom swingcopter parts (e. g. Red World) feel very janky.

Out of Stereo Madness to Fingerdash, what is your favorite Main Level?

I used to dislike Electrodynamix, but now it's my favorite Main Level. I like the designs and its energetic gameplay.

Simple Blocks I like and a combined design. Of course it uses additive blending 8)

If you are building a level I recommend making a consistent color palette and using "copy color" if you can.

(this is my first post, also see this like an experiment)
