Adding a LEVEL EDITOR to my RIPOFF Geometry Dash! 

Man, never would I ever have thought that Tride of all people would get into gamedev. Great job, regardless!

I am OBSESSED with gamedev devlogs/videos and this series is SO entertaining. Keep it up!

one suggestion: as someone who's colorblind, the blue orb and pink orbs look a little too similar. i'd suggest making the blue orbs lighter like they are in real GD to avoid confusion! or you could do the 2.2 thing

Here is some stuff you can add in 1.2: A button to rotate 45 degrees. A grid in the editor. A red and black orb and all the pads. The ship gamemode. An icon kit. More main levels. And death effects. Also when you save not all the blocks save.

we need more levels from you. one level isnt enough. we need 40,000

Watching a gd youtuber make a gd ripoff feels so wrong

Ideas that would be good for future updates: Icon select [icons & colours] (1.2 / 1.3) Mobile compatibility (if it isnt already) (?) Collectables (1.5) Chests (1.5) Completion rewards (1.5) Difficulty faces (1.4) Trying to make servers (unneeded) (?) -- Other editor things -- Decorations (1.2 / 1.3) Length and object text (1.5) Other random songs to select from. (1.3) Speed portals (1.6) -- Others -- Other gamemodes [N] (1.4 - 1.6) Mini [N] (1.5) Reverse [N] (1.7) Playtest [N] (1.3) More BG's /Floors [N] (1.8) Selecting multiple objects [RQ] (1.2) Scaling [RQ] (1.3) Multi activate orbs [RQ] (1.3) Texture pack compatibillity [RQi?] (2.0) In level pause [RQi?] (1.2) Triggers (move, toggle, etc.) [RQi?] (2.0 - 2.2) And of course... The updated version in the bottom right. (1.2 - 2.2) RQ: Request N: New [i just thought of] RQi?: found in the comments (#.#): The Update (These arent things that need to be added, just would be nice, the update they appear in does not have to be what i put)

Suggestion : You can create .zip files, that would store both the song and the level, and you could use a importer, which would be a file explorer popup, that would automatically put the level in the levels folder and song in the songs folder. There could also be a button in the level settings to export the level as .zip!

In 1.2, make the ship, color changing, more block types, and pads. I love this series so far!

This is insane,you progress development so fast impressive it's not just simple gd level anymore good luck

HUGE respect for all the effort you're putting into this. So excited to see the next episode, but just remember to not put too much pressure on yourself :)

Please, add The Void, that kills you if you're too high, so that you can't just skip the whole level by hitting a blue orb without spikes at the ceiling.

We definitely need more icons for this. Great start 😁

Huge props dude, this was such a fun video! I've always been too scared to make a level editor but maybe it won't be so bad...

if this video gets more than 2 likes then he gotta make bloodbath

I hope this gets a series it’s so entertaining and I want you to make version 1.2

ayyy he's back with more Tride Dash

This is so cool. but if you ever want to make an update you should add triggers into the level editor

I had no idea that Tride coded but that's AWESOME. Good job man!

I love these tride dash videos, please make more!

I absolutely love this series. I definitely enjoy these videos more than your normal content (probably because I like tinkering around with games and stuff), can't wait to see more in the future! Also, do you think you could share the actual project folder so that we can make our own modifications to it in unity?

Tride, you are amazing at making games!

Thats so impressive bro. I hope roptop mentiones it and it gets a bazillion of players. This was supposed to be a inside joke for the channel, and you are actually making a level for people to play! Absolute W

The first episode of making Tride Dash was the reason i started getting into game dev because you made it look so easy and i just want to say thanks because it's a BLAST programing❤

if you're planning on making this a series (which i really hope you do i really like this) you could make a megahack type screen in it where you can toggle noclip and speedhack and maybe a few other things

You should make a account system so you have different people with different names while no one is stealing. let’s say Viprins level, and people start downloading that level while the original is not getting any it would be very cool making a account system and it might solve a lot of drama between levels

I didn't know you could code!!! Congrats, Tride!

Tride Dash will reach update 2.2 before GD

Yoo this is sick! You could also add a playtest level button in the editor, a playtest music button in the editor and a copy + paste button in the editor. These will be super helpful as i have seen some playthroughs of older version of gd and it seems super irritating without these features. Obviously thses dont have to be added immidietally but i think it would be a really good addition!

This series is legitimately so awesome and unique alongside everything else you've done on this channel already, can't wait to see where you take it!

i love how exited you get off of the simplest mechanics, reminds me of myself when i did coding.

Someone needs to make a demon list for tride dash

People in your itch comments have no respect, one guy effectively calling you lazy for not making a Linux build. It's sad.

thanks for making this video for the 2 people who watch your channel who like geometry dash and also game development

i love this series so much!

This man never fails to entertain

I gonna to make tidal wave here😊

i actually really like these game dev videos you should do this more often lol

THIS IS SO FUN, it does take a second to get used to the mechanics, but i still cant stop thinking that i made the first demon on this game

Cant wait till we get 2.2 in this game!

Imagine if he makes platformer mode! 😂😂😂

i love and forever will love this series

ive been trying to switch to making games in unity, and your videos are a better tutorial than all those hour long things out there lol

You should continue this series....

you should try out godot

You should totally make more levels, I feel like a level making episode would be super fun! I also think you should try making a game mode that isn’t in normal GD

Things to code for the next part #1 editor blocks and more: -Special mechanics :pads,black orb,red orb. -Gamemodes: ship ,ball,ufo -Decorations : pixel blocks( to about a 8th of a block), -Spikes:fading spike , fake spike -Blocks : background blocks , fading block #2 new ui: -Copy and paste -Swipe to place/edit -Quick delete (like in the corner) -Setting for the volume : music ,sfx , etc -Settings for editer -New icons for cube (like the first 5 free one the classic ones and the supporter and others are for beaten levels), ship(like the classic and a couple more),ball(like the classic and a couple other too) and ufo(the classic and a couple more) -Credit menu -4 new levels -Edit buttons like edit object and edit group -New triggers like move and alpha and color trigger -Color channels like 99 channels That might be all for 1.2 (thank you)

Upload it for mobile too please😢

Are you gonna make a mobile version?

Please make more gamedev videos! These are so fun and learning gamedev together with you is really fun

This is probably my favorite thing you’ve done on the channel! Also could you try to add more game modes in the next update?

Make it mobile

omg this is so cool tride

--- IDEAS --- Add a move trigger Add a color trigger Add a new gamemode Add the SPIDER ORB (for fun) --- Remember, you dont have to do these ideas. No pressure --- --- But if you do consider doing them plez credit me, plis ;-; ---

This could be such a cool series, like you can add some things that aren't in gd into this maybe like custom stuff you want.

3:08 "We got the move buttons, we got delet e, we got R"

Hey @Tride. Add this! - Death particles - Difficulty faces - Add cube,ship,rocket portal

decided the editor gave me enough reason to download this, game itself would be not half bad if you increase the gravity / player speed. main issue is the editor corrupts anything i try to save by deleting ever odd-numbered column

Little tip since it looks like you are new to Unity. If you dont want to have to zoom out when editing your UI set the Canvas from Screen Space - Overlay to Screen Space - Camera. Then drag in your Main cam into the Camera field and you should see that your Canvas scales down to Camera size. This makes it way easier to edit GUI and als way easier to test.

i think you should make a contest for people to make levels in tride dash and pick the best ones for main levels this would be fun and get a lot of main levels done so the game would be much more expanded, it's a fun video idea as well judging other ppl's levels maybe with some popular gd creator even

Here's a whole list of stuff that NEEDS to be added. Ship, playtesting in the editor, song playing in the editor, more levels, background and ground triggers, maybe the ball, jump pads, red orbs, slabs, those weird pulsing stick things, speed changes, possibly the ufo, black orbs, spider orbs, and green gravity portals. If some miracle thing happens and you somehow see this, maybe scatter these things across multiple updates because that's a long list of things.

Awesome job! I think In 1.2 you should try to get a server for user levels (it would be hard but you could always get some help or just “borrow” some code) and I think a rating system would be fairly easy to add once the server stuff is working and then boom now we have a creator point leader board that could be added and possibly one for stars or another collectable like stars. I seriously would love to try and make cool levels in tride dash, it looks pretty good so far and I would really love to see working servers come to the game sometime so it’s easier to find user levels to play and so I can upload my own masterpieces. I know it’s just a gd copy but I think it has some potential as just a fun little “alternative” to gd, and because you are the best creator on the planet your rating system would be completely perfect and everyone would quit gd to come over to tride dash! 🎉🎉🎉

I admire Tride so much. He is able to just appreciate what he does. He does not care if its good, bad or anything in between, he can just laugh it off and call it an "intended feature". Amazing

"i might make longer levels in the future" jonathanGD is typing...

Honestly for update 1.2 these are the changes you should add 1. Add a icon set bc being just the default icon is probably boring 2. Add a playtest button in the editor (probably hard to code) 3. Add a color set my color for my icon is red and black 4. Add triggers (probably very hard to code) maybe you should add 4 triggers the color trigger,move trigger,rotate trigger,and stop trigger 5. Add a new gamemode bc being just the cube gamemode is kind of empty And that's ALL! and great job for update 1.1 :) amazing work tride.

In the future, you should add a death animation- I mean vanishing animation :D If the block hits something it will vanish and play a very retro explosion sound effect, just a idea for you here :)

playtesting and listening to the song would be the most important feature to add imo :33

Robtop called he wants his game back

20:00 Personally, i would ads exactly 8 bytes to the beginning of each file which specify the size of your block data in bytes. Then when you read all the bytes of the file 1 by 1, you check if you reached this number. All the bytes afterwards just get pushed into a separate buffer from which you create the song. This way, the music will be included in the actual level file. For the level data itself, json can be used, but i would recommend a custom byte layout. So lets say 4 bytes for x, 4 for y, another 4 for id and 8 for rotation (if its in radiants). So every 20 bytes you get a new block. This way you save a ton of filesize and loading time, because the words "pos" and "rot" arent actually needed for your script to know where it is.

I just made a level with my own song in Tride Dash. I aspire to be one of the OG Tride Dash creators. Also a couple things I noticed / would like to share - the music is very slightly de-synced after you respawn (the first attempt is fine, but the attempts after you die are off by a couple milliseconds) (and yes, i did make the level sync) - where can i share my levels? we need like a google doc or something (like for you to play i mean) (first ever Tride Dash level request video???) - i make some music if you want you could use some of it for Tride Dash! (just a suggestion i don't wanna be annoying) - when you open the editor, the first object you click/place gets deleted instantly - sometimes an object gets randomly deselected when i wanna do something with it - i've clicked the exit and DON'T SAVE button 3 times by accident cuz it's in the same place where the Resume button is in GD. please swap those two :D IMPORTANT EDIT: I've opened Tride Dash this morning and my level got wiped

I love watching you make this game plz moreee.

this shows how fucking hard 2.2 probably is for Rob. Tride has spent hours on a sketchy joke version of the real game- i cant even imagine the real game

Now the triple spike is the hardest jump. Good job Tride

Tride in 2050: TODAY WE’LL BE ADDING THE SEVEN HUNDREDTH SPECIES OF COCKROACH TO MY RIPOFF UNIVERSE!

Man, such a funny joke on 3:43, i really liked that about that, imma delet e

why do i appreciate the baba is you background music so much

Game developers do not take two steps forward and one step back, we take one step forward and fifty steps back

Ferb, I know what I'm gonna do today! Make a tride dash save editor with things including: ● images ● art ● idk ● suggest anything else

Oh, also, the reason the structure you wanted to build in profesor umlaut didn't work, because in GD the icon has 2 hitboxes: - the red (spike) hitbox - the blue (box) hitbox the red hitbox triggers when hitting a spike or a saw or any of that and it's as big as the icon, and the blue hitbox is smaller than the red hitbox and it triggers when it touches a block. If you want to make that structure work, you need to implement that.

"Mom, can you buy me Geometry Dash?" "Why? You have GD Lite" "I wanna use the level editor" "But we have a level editor at home" The editor at home:

Tride releasing 1.1 way quicker than robtop would ever release any update lol, I actually really want 1.2 to also drop 2 weeks from now :O

We need to have some subreddit where people can share level codes along with a link to the song

My favourite AT: Tride Dash be the funi jump cube game.

I have some ideas: Shop [Lets purchase icons] VIP Pass [Not really in game but it lets open chests] CHESTS GIVES YOU 100 ORBS PER DAY! Screen [It makes to see the screen when you enter at start] Update Logs button [Lets you see the updates] Bar progess [It only works at editor so you see the time]

WE CAN FINALLY REMAKE EVERY END IN TRIDE DASH LETS GOOOOO

here's some suggestions on improving your code: 1. use classes. like for example: Make a class "tile" with similar data like position and rotation, and then inherit from it at every other tile and add define some functions like onCollision or onClick etc this would make the code a lot more simple to use and maintain 2. not really a coding thing but separate main levels from custom ones. Like remove that selection thing at bottom left

I did make a gd rip off too, but in stencyl, and I have no idea how to make a level editor lol. Props to you, Tride!

Su7nix in the gd editor in 2050 be like

You are giving Kevin Macleod too much power!

Great series. I have been working on my game lately and might consider trying to include the level editor.

Ship , BG colour , Pads!!!!!! Really can't wait for 1.2

This looked pretty fun to make.

We’re makin it out of Cataclysm with this one

i love the video keep it up bro

bro imagine robtop commenting on the video saying "Nah Bro aint no Way" lol

Tride my Favorite Game Dev!

Tride... If you make the rest of the game modes and mini spikes, ill try to make bloodbath trust.

Tride’s outro music is fire

I bet this will be an whole series

I love how the player is just... Not a square
