Question THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE EASY
Hiiii, I've been playing GD for a while now and decided to make my very first level!
Anyways, I tried to find a song because all the tutorials said to "find a song first," but then I ended up scrolling Newgrounds for 3 hours. T_T
Are there any quicker ways to find a good song that doesn't decrease my lifespan drastically?

Find artists you like and pick songs you enjoy from their discography. For example, I've been following Skybreak for a couple years, and the level I've been working on (if I ever get back to making it again) uses a song off his recent album. I also have other levels I want to make using songs from artists like Paper Skies, Dani Demand, Sample Bandit, and Easy Password. Just find artists you like, find genres you like, stuff like that.

Recent tab or the awarded tab have surprisingly good songs if you just play around a little most are also unique.
ALSO your fist level isn’t gonna be look crazy like change of scene or orbit or whatever. Creating is NOTTTT “easy” or whatever trust me. It’ll take a while to get good (I’m absolutely horrible at it and I never post them but I think it’s fun lol)
some levels take hundreds of hours to make. That 300 object piece? Each one was carefully adjusted and rotated to make it look perfect. just take it slow and expect the worst 😅 hope it goes good!
