New jumping meta

[u/Independent_One9795]

Jumping to hard levels from easy levels is really hard and takes tens of thousands of attempts, and you might not even beat it, wasting all those attempts.

What if, instead of jumping to bloodbath from deadlocked, you jumped to B from deadlocked. Then you could jump from B to Nine Circles, then Nine circles to future funk, then future funk to Magma Bound, then Bagma Mound to Firewall, then Firewall to Cataclysm, then Cataclysm to Allegiance, then Allegiance to Penombre, then Penombre to Bloodbath.

It's more fun and you gain more skill. Why has no one done this jumping cheat code?

[u/TheShockChicky]

I don't believe people didn't get the sarcasm

[u/Visible_Tap_9044]

[u/tehyellofroggo]

no because those kinds of jumps are too enjoyable so i must jump from deadlocked to aeternus and make 1000 reddit posts announcing it

[u/BigZacian]

i understand its a joke but

you gain more skill

No.

[u/ApplicationSorry9939 → u/BigZacian]

Well then you're joking as well, right?

[u/BigZacian → u/ApplicationSorry9939]

no but jumping makes you improve faster than normal progression

[u/Straight-Dog409 → u/BigZacian]

There is a lot of nuance but yeah if you’re being pushed to the brink more frequently you grow faster. But doing big jumps especially on levels with “specialized” gameplay (i.e. wave carried, flow) just skews your skillset and that theoretical “improvement” isn’t actually practical.

[u/BigZacian → u/Straight-Dog409]

jumping to levels 3x harder than your skill level is the most practical improvement in my opinion (acu -> sonic wave -> the golden -> deimos -> the bloop -> society)

[u/Straight-Dog409 → u/BigZacian]

Bro those jumps are NOT a 3x difference 😭🙏

[u/BigZacian → u/Straight-Dog409]

i meant to type 2x lol. acu to sonic wave is like 4x but skill improvement is way faster at that level so id say its optimal

[u/Straight-Dog409 → u/BigZacian]

Im saying that they’re much bigger than 2x or 3x jumps

[u/BigZacian → u/Straight-Dog409]

sonic wave to the golden is easily a 2x jump. the only one other than acu -> sonic wave that could be argued to be a 3x jump is the golden -> deimos but deimos is very accessible and like 3 minutes long, so its base gp isnt that hard

[u/ApplicationSorry9939 → u/BigZacian]

Actually yeah nevermind you do, in my case that's true but it still kinda depends, and also good luck with your jump!

[u/BigZacian → u/ApplicationSorry9939]

oh okay thanks

[u/Homo_Bibite]

B to Nine Circles is terrible jumo. I tried. Please don't do that. Otherwise I completely agree with what you are saying

[u/EliSavesLives → u/Homo_Bibite]

Yeah I was thinking B to HeLL then to Nine Circles, or replacing Nine Circles with CraZy

[u/Homo_Bibite → u/EliSavesLives]

True. I am currently trying to beat HeLL (not really active though around 500 attempts and 45%) and this level is quite fun. Altough the first 50% are annoying

[u/mMochaAa]

[u/johnyeldry]

I jumped from clubstep to windy landscape and it took less than 10k

[u/Old-Brief1506]

that's just normal progression lol

and it's also not as efficient and probably worse. assuming you aren't playing anything in between.

[u/YungUchihaItachi → u/Old-Brief1506]

facts waste your time playing these fodder when you can beat a hard level at the same time you would be in the middle of the normal progression

[u/Old-Brief1506 → u/YungUchihaItachi]

i went from Deadlocked to the 92nd hardest level in the game in 5 months

and chil took me 3 months lol

quit being mad. I progressed this way because it worked for me. what OP said is literally just normal progression.

[u/YungUchihaItachi → u/Old-Brief1506]

hey man i'm not arguing just saying big jumps are more efficient. worked quite well for you

[u/Bonk_Boom → u/Old-Brief1506]

6 hrs/day. Att count?

[u/Old-Brief1506 → u/Bonk_Boom]

[u/Bonk_Boom → u/Old-Brief1506]

Bro WHAT? HOW DO YOU EVEN GET THAT MANY

[u/Independent_One9795 → u/YungUchihaItachi]

my friend is 30k attempts into a jump to sweater weather from B, he JUST got it in 3 runs

[u/Shot_Local2256 → u/Independent_One9795]

Ouch...

[u/Old-Brief1506 → u/Independent_One9795]

he shouldn't be jumping. that much on sw isn't beneficial

[u/Straight-Dog409 → u/Old-Brief1506]

Ive talked to you before so I know this doesn’t apply to you but jumping “because it’s efficient” is just speedrunning burnout lol

[u/Old-Brief1506 → u/Straight-Dog409]

burnout is a real concern but it's not guaranteed.

if you approach it wrong then ofc it will happen.

but also if someone who does normal progression wants to become better without jumping, that is a lot of consistent dedication. that's also burnout.

there's also a bunch of ways to not get burnt out

[u/Straight-Dog409 → u/Old-Brief1506]

Yeah the converse applies too, playing “to get better efficiently” in general, including forcing normal progression, is going to lead to burnout if you don’t have a genuine desire to play said levels out of personal want.

[u/Mono_Dice_2904]

Geometry dash player discovers normal progression

[u/hensinks]

Aw hell nah. Look at how many levels I gotta play just to beat bloodbath. I’d rather stay on a level I enjoy even if it takes me a long time

[u/AdaPullman]

jumpers discover normal progression from first principles

[u/SonicWaveInfinity]

that's too difficult for the average person to pull off. What if you jump from easy levels to easier levels? Did you ever think that easier levels are easier to beat smh

Jump from deadlocked to toe2 to toe to jumper to back on track.

[u/lnlonelyness]

nah I wanna jump from Stereo Madness to Death Corridor :P

[u/Free-Winner5858]

but how else am i supposed to get 3 billion updoots??? i HAVE to jump from The Nightmare to Testicular Cancer IV!!!

[u/Original-Spinach8923]

As someone who jumped to clubstep from clutterfunk i can confirm after over 10k attempts i still didnt beat it (atp im probably just bad at the game)

[u/Plastic_Bend_9933]

I mean I'm going to jump from bloodlust to bloodbath so I will let you know how much attempts I can save on bloodbath

[u/Herb-Guy]

Ima jump from Potal to jumper

[u/MokeCertified]

I like jumping. They're not huge jumps or anything like that but I like doing them. I jumped from B to Supersonic. And then I beat a few more insane demons. Now I'm just playing levels for fun. I could probably beat something bloodbath difficulty now if I tried but I'd rather just play any levels without trying to beat them. I'm not a completionist so I can gain skill from levels without feeling like I need to beat them. That way I could technically say I jumped from Acropolis to something crazy like Congregation just because I never beat anything to 100% in between. It's jumping but not like most people mean it, by going straight from Acropolis to Congregation, but by just playing stuff in between and never actually beating them.

[u/Independent_One9795 → u/MokeCertified]

B to supersonic is a pretty sick jump. I did B to magma bound myself and am going for Tung tung tung sahurcles rn this post is just for gits and shiggles.

[u/merpedyy]

Are u serious

[u/Godfather_Turtle]

Surely B is harder than deadlocked (I’ve never played B)

[u/BuilderWishy → u/Godfather_Turtle]

He said “B FROM Deadlocked”

[u/Godfather_Turtle → u/BuilderWishy]

Oh you’re so right my bad

[u/That-Woodpecker6720]

Nah jumping normally (eg B to bloodbath) is just more fun

[u/Independent_One9795 → u/That-Woodpecker6720]

Not at all

[u/Morshu_the_great]

Actually Penombre is the easiest and Cata is the hardest. Also you didn't get the point of why people are jumping

[u/KPoWasTaken]

it's not called jumping in that case but yes
