aight im re-reviewing this game because this game pretty much almost ruined my life. i dont want to get into it but the community sucks absolute ass and you should probably not play this game if you're under the age of 14 and have no friends because jesus christ does the community plant some CRAZY thoughts into your brain. sure, it's the internet and you can walk that ♥♥♥♥ off but a bunch of 12 year olds constantly sending you death threats every day because you wanted to make stupid levels that you didn't realize have the motivation to finish is a surprisingly effective way for anyone to develop several mental issues sooner or later. i hate this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game and i sometimes wish i never ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ touched it.

With that said if you really want to play this game you should try and keep a healthy mindset and do WHAT YOU want to do.

People don't like you? there could be a reason for that but if you're just making levels on a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game where you spend thousands of hours just to have your cube thing go to the end of the level then random 12 year olds go over and constantly send ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ death threats to your little innocent mind because they don't know any better then try to remember that they're all pieces of ♥♥♥♥ and you shouldn't listen to them. if you haven't noticed already this is less of a review but much more of a vent for my frustration and anger towards this game. this CAN be a good game that CAN be enjoyed, also if you're still reading this then good job you dont have a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ attention span of a goldfish but whats probably more ironic is that this review is definitely not for you. whatever, i dont give a ♥♥♥♥, tl;dr pls enjoy gam :>

edit: 2.2 is out and honestly its still was an exhilarating release, and honestly me playing basically like an hour since its launch i was fully expecting the servers to just be completely dead but RobTop delivered and the servers seemed to work quite smoothly and honestly thats ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ unbelievable. I did say i hated this game months ago but I think deep down i still love it. I have nothing against this game. Its almost PERFECT for what it is. I just wished the community was much better.

edit 2: coming back to this review again... honestly i've thought about Geometry Dash and in a way, while it definitely fed me into a pool of negativity and pessimism, it still helped shaped and molded alot about how I am as a person today. To be quite honest without this game I'd be an arrogant, egotistical prick with no respect for anyone but himself. Thank god I chose to do the opposite. Only problem is that was being the kickstart to my rapid decline in mental health the following years. In the last several years of my life I felt as though I am going to contribute nothing to society, that I was pointless, and there is no real point in my actually surviving once I got out to the "real world." I've thought about some stuff, and I'd made some plans but never anything that has been able to truly go to fruition. Part of this is just meeting some people, and having those people tell me remind me that I do indeed matter, and thinking that way is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid.

Now I am currently in some weird purgatory state where I feel as though I have no control over my own life. I think probably because by now I've somehow convinced myself that I am supposed to be dead, but here I am in defiance of god... Don't know if that's a healthy way to look at my situation but its definitely how my brain thinks. I live in spite of God, and I hope that God eventually has his mercy. Maybe one day go up there and have a chat on why... everything... Regardless I at the very least have some plans. I was supposed to go to college a year ago but my family has been too busy trying to move homes and working to actually make me do anything. I can't even drive, and I don't know how I am going to start now. Hopefully the new place we're moving to is alot better and more nice, and honestly looking back at it all... I've started to realize I was probably just exposed to a really horrible part of the GD community, that part where online harassment is the norm, and while words are words I think it's pretty obvious those words got to me. I've always tend to be a very spiteful piece of ♥♥♥♥ but when I can't do anything about it I just felt powerless. I stopped trying, I stopped caring, I stopped loving.

If you want an actual up to date review of this game I might as well put it all the way down here:
Geometry Dash is a rhythmic platformer/actual platformer where the main goal is to reach the end of the level without dying, all in one run.

Levels in the game contain different mechanics and obstacles that guide you towards the end.
The difficulty of each level is rated from Easy - Demon, with Demons being split up into 5 different categories.

Theres two different kinds of levels, Platformer and Standard. Standard being the classic forced sidescroller style most people come to love about geometry dash, and Platformer being your classic mario-esque style, where you can move left and right. I haven't really had much experience with Platformer at all, nor is it my cup of tea, so I won't be putting it here right now but It's pretty niche and appeals to a different kind of audience.

With these levels theres also Official Levels made directly by the creator of the game, Jesus "Robtop" Christ, and with each level they usually either introduce a game mechanic, or in the case of the demon levels, introduce your skill issue.

All in all the game is pretty fun and honestly, if you are looking to pass time or express your creativity, honestly geometry dash is a great game to do that with... I guess this means im recommending this game again... whatever enough of all of this for now.
