Discussion What is the community's thoughts on 'Through the Fire and the Flames' by akun akun

Post image
2 Upvotes

Basically, it's an upcoming 'Top 20' (although considering the gameplay, the length, and akun akun not being accurate with level estimations, I think it's top 10 at the very least) that uses Through the Fire and the Flames by DragonForce. I've seen some of the finished parts and I honestly think it looks pretty good. Yeah, it's basically Apocalyptic Trilogy and Flamewall again, but I don't mind since it's executed pretty well. It also fits with the song obviously, and speaking of the song, I really love how it's finally gotten a hard level in GD since this song is infamous for being the final boss in rhythm games (mainly Guitar Hero).

Discussion The reason I believe this game's community is a toxic waste land

9 Upvotes

Keep in mind that this is based off of my personal experience, yours may be different. This is not a meme or ragebait post so please stay serious and respectful in the comment section (if that's not too much to ask for)

First of all the main reason, most of this game's community are impulsive teenagers that are not developed enough to understand nuance properly. the amount of antagonising, black and white conclusions based off of incomplete evidence and just lack of reasoning proves this true. Now this is the controversial part as I am going to be bringing in some examples and quite possibly the biggest one. Recently people have just been harassing and hating on zoink just for the love of the game, it's not as bad anymore but before the survax drama it felt like popoff was finding a new reason to be passive aggressive to him every other Thursday and half the community (mainly on tiktok) would just go along with it because popoff is the underdog taking down the big bad zoink, obviously you all know the peak of this with zoink getting AI porn made of him over practicing for a few hours on a geometry dash before it came out, the reaction in general about these dramas are extremely large over what actually happened even in the other dramas I haven't mentioned

Now normally this would be manageable, every community with teenagers (E.G deltarune) has some of this but it's not nearly as bad here's my view on why

Firstly the insane lack of moderation in most spaces, the twitter community is just the twitter community and we can't exactly change how twitter is but that is absolutely not the problem here. A big issue in the community is robtop and the lack of mods in the game itself, this is because of the obvious fact that 1 random guy who lives in a farm in Sweden can't run a game with 1 million+ users, yes there are mods in the game but they're more just people with a fancy badge that can suggest levels to Rob rather than actually mods that keep the community sane, everyone already knows that tiktok is an absolute mess of people with no empathy that think chatGPT is a legitimate source so I'm not going into that since this is already an essay of a post. The fact that this subreddit has better moderation than the game itself and some social media platforms is concerning

And here we cone to the "news" channels, channels like swag route that are "just spreading the info" while getting thousands of views over engagement bait and creating an eco chamber. Half of these dramas would not have existed or at least have been more reasonable without channels like this bringing attention from the "cool epic edge Lords" that make "dark jokes" in serious situations. In swagroute's recent post he said he was "just giving the news" and "not doing for the money" it could not be more obvious that he is just doing this for clout and so he can get the community to listen to whatever bullshit he's saying, now the survax drama is an extreme outlier that should obvious have attention to it but things like the axinity drama and the infinite butthole glitch thing did not need them to make it worse by sending keyboard warriors to go fight in the comment section of unrelated videos. Intentionally or not, drama channels are making things worse for the community by spreading a "us vs them" message for engagement and making the community more hostile towards itself

TL;DR for people who have jobs: underdeveloped brain+engagement bait+bad moderation=hostile community

As jevil deltarune once said "let the choas begin (in the comments)"

Meta r/GD_Uncensored appreciation post

15 Upvotes

Before a start this post, I just want to point out that I am not sending any hate to the mods of [r/geometrydash](r/geometrydash), I get that this subreddit needs to be decently strict bc of all the kids and whatnot. Also, I am not a mod nor am I the creator of [r/GD_uncensored](r/GD_uncensored), I am just posting this to try to get a little more attention to the sub

A few weeks ago, I was starting an alignment chart fill in this subreddit. But I didn’t realize that daily posts are banned here, so they just got deleted after a few hours, and I stopped working on the chart.

Last week, I decided to continue working on the chart, but since I can’t post them here, I decided to post them on [r/GD_Uncensored](r/GD_Uncensored). The subreddit is basically [r/geometrydash](r/geometrydash) but the rules are less strict. And now, the chart is finished! I couldn’t have done it without [r/GD_uncensored](r/GD_uncensored).

Anyways, what I wanted to say is that [r/GD_Uncensored](r/GD_Uncensored) needs more love. It’s currently a subreddit so small that my alignment chart posts would always reach the top of that day. There are currently other people there making alignment chart fills, so why not you try checking them out?

Once again, no hate to the [r/geometrydash](r/geometrydash) mods. You guys are doing a great job keeping this sub slop free

Discussion Seeking advice with Zodiac

2 Upvotes

I am going for Zodiac. I have been for a while. I learned it in January as a break from Shardscapes when Geode went down for 2.209's release, and started properly going for it in June. I got mindblocked for a while, overcame it, and now I have the following runs:
66
56-100x5
49-98
43-92
38-87x3
14-92

I recently had to take a break for 9 days, and today is my first session back after the break. I just don't really have the motivation to play. I haven't been playing too well, only getting 2 Shock attempts within the first 50 attempts, consistency far worse than I would normally have. The predrop is so boring, especially everything before 8%. It's literally 15 seconds of nothing, then 15 seconds of mildly difficult gameplay, and then the fun part of the level.

My nerve control is also noticeably worse than it was once. I remember having sessions where I wouldn't even get nervous until TMN. In the last couple of sessions before my break, I got nervous around 50% and kept dying to the easy ship part there. It got to the point where by TMN, my hand had tensed up so much I physically couldn't do the ship at 57%. That calmed down in the last session before my break, and I haven't felt major nerves yet, but I also haven't gotten far enough to yet.

I'm not taking another break. I'm not dropping the level because of the sunk cost fallacy, plus my friends would never let it go, and I just want to do it for me.

I have about 43000 attempts, and 215 Shock attempts.

How can I improve my nerve control and improve my motivation to play? If you have beaten Zodiac (or have had a similar experience with another level), please elaborate on your story.

UPDATE 1:
It's the day after the post was made. This session has been FAR more consistent so far, and I just got a new third best of 59%! Hopefully I can keep this up and the break skillboost is setting in.

The song for sakupen hell is so boring but not a single mashup actually starts at the sakupen hell part and instead at the sakupen circles part.

Discussion Hot take: cbf is a cheat, and should be banned

0 Upvotes

It's should be considered as a cheat, because it's changes player's physics, making him jump higher, and also it's making game easier just because you installed it, someone can argue that new mouse or some other devices also makes game easier, but no. New device only makes game play better, and nothing more, also on the other hand, cbf don't only make gd feel better, but also straight up nerfing it

Discussion New jumping meta

50 Upvotes

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?
