How Hard is Tidal Wave's First Drop (Geometry Dash) 

If u wanna play the level, search "how hard is tidal wa" on GD Sorry if the hitboxes are a bit inaccurate since the player has different hitboxes for spikes and blocks/slopes, I tried my best. Should I do this for another top level? (Edit: just posted avernus video) Also, loooool i didnt know nickxd made these videos first, thought it was an original concept.

Without the open looking structures this looks comically difficult

This is UNBELIEVABLE. Difficulty has come mad far. Props to you for doing this btw, seems like the algorithm has picked it up

Actually good use of the “how difficult ___ is actually” trope. Good stuff.

I love how you actually simplified the layout, keep doing this

At 100% speed, does this look possible to you

Made props to Zoink for beating it. Excited to see the rest of the community play it!

That’s ridiculous. Zoinks an animal

Still easier then Back on track

it looks so much easier when the structures are all open but in reality you do have to go this tight

this is actually a genuinely great way to showcase the difficulty of a wave part, i hope more people keeps doing this on other levels, great job dude 👏

No way thats how hard the level is that's crazy Update:his version is inaccurate af "nick1xd" made an accurate version

I like this structuring way more, levels are always more fun when they look harder than they really are

actual good execution of the "how hard is x" genre Youi can actually tell how hard it is

Now imagine that but you can’t see cause of deco and not closed gaps

Zoink is a beast

Though think of it it is hypnotising that wave part in ACTUAL tidalmwave as u can't see because of the details and colours and also how fast ur going. This makes u mind gobbling and do not know what ur doing

bro just beat tidal wave and thought we wouldn't notice

The saws make it look alot easier than it really is

I always thought of doing something like this but good job actually doing it, this is insane

I knew this was top 1 and still underestimated this level

This really helps visualize just how tight it actually is.. Thanks (from a casual)

Good semplification, really good job.

Okay, I understand what you've done, and that it is very, very difficult to do just right, but this really looks over the top. I cannot really imagine anyone making a level be this tight for this long and just for a portion of the level in the beginning. Some parts, especially normal waves in some areas, are just so absurd, I HOPE it's not THAT bad!

Anyone who can complete that deserves a medal

this is so well done you should do the same thing with some other levels aswell

How do you only have 72 subscribers? You deserve more subscribers :D

I tried to record zbot/megahack macro bot on this level. And I agree that it is indeed super tight wave. The fact that the level somehow impossible to play on 144hz screen due to some bug with trajectory on some parts. But it is possible on lower fresh rate Oh have I told you about the saw blades that make it looks it have more space… nope they’re all just visual trick… even you managed to slip through, there no way you able to get out on other side

I know this took a long time but can you do this for the rest of the level (at least the other waves) I would love that

this is actually a really neat concept. id like to see this for other waves with similar structuring like Kenos

Okay but spikes has other hitboxes

This is a very interesting and concrete way of showing a parts difficulty, great job!

100K VEIWS WHAAAAT

This is what I was trying to look for. Good representation! Maybe one for the whole level? Tidal wave really doesn't look top 1 until this video.

"Its a little hard" 💀

I love the part on how he tells us how hard it is

1.7 ~ 1.8x harder than Sakupen Circles entire wave

i did a practice mode on tidal wave using 0.2x speed hack, i can confirm that the actual structuring of tidal wave makes it look a lot easier than it actually is

this looks like a list challenge 🤢

One of the only actually useful "how hard is" videos

I hate this level

On the last day of christmas my true love gave to me, 200 frame perfects.

Bro I managed to pull off the wave today and this is to true. I plan on being first victor with the level already in three runs. By the way is this on the servers, In which case what is the ID?

Simplifying algebra in math - the first thing I get reminded of when I saw the level desc

pretty sure its less tight than that

+There are 74 frames perfect in the first wave (at 60 FPS). So it is the hardest part of the level. (there is exactly 200 frames perfect in the level)

Absurd

Finally a level that isn't just a 4x wave

Zoink is a fucking chad for verified this bro had no fucking chill

Simply incredible

What if SpaceUK was Zoink with a voice changer???

we beating tidal wave buffed to the highest extent with our eyes closed while playing bloodbath and bloodbath buffed to the highest extent while making a cup of tea after this one 🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥

This is giving me galaxy collapse flashbacks

It still bothers me how so many people hate this level

i couldnt see anything but holy hell you are very talented for sure

You can't do a single mistake : unbelievable to watch Zoink doing that

This part seems like the golden on steroids

How new players see the wave parts in deadlocked

and to imagine zoink using a fat ass wave icon is wild

Can we appreciate that perfect no clip run

This gives me claustrophobia from the tightness of the wave path

At first I thought that Tidal Wave would be top 5 but seeing this I retract it

Absolutely bewildering how difficult this looks when it’s a close space and not an open level. Looks are so deceiving.

So basically close to impossible? Good to know!

If these are perfectly accurate to the frame then we’re genuinely reaching the skill ceiling sometime soon (until 2.2)

How the f*ck did Zoink do this in just 47k attempts!!?? Actual legend.

Tidal wave with open structures looked easier than arctic lights but this looks insane

I still don't know tf is happening

No way, actually a "how hard really is" video with effort put into it. Most of people doing this just bot the level on layout mode or show hitboxes hack. Good job.

At 100% speed. Does this look possible to you?

Me: not being able to beat the first non mini wave on deadlocked Meanwhile some mf named "zoink":

This is some galaxy collapse type shit

Zoink is incredibly good at this game

this + overdecorated enviorments = top 1 extreme demon

Esto verifica que zoink es una maldita máquina

hell i still cant do this😭😭😭 (please release tho i wanna try)

Bro I struggle on deadlocked’s wave sections. This is fucking crazy

Tidal wave belike: Music:❤ Game play:😮

The biggest underrated GD YT

Zonks that looks hard!

Bro the death at the end made be like beat bloodbath

I activated my Siri with this, Siri is still on after 9 minutes💀

Dont forget that the decorations and the rest is part of the difficulty

BRO WHAT

This is HORRIFICALLY inaccurate. The drop is a lot easier than that

We gotta agree that the first drop is thr opposite of water: FIRE🔥

This is a lot harder than Tidal Wave is. You made the structures match up to the spike's sprite instead of the actual hitbox, so if this looks impossible it's cause its a lot harder than Tidal Wave

You're telling me Zoinks did all of this? And you're telling me he's human?

New top 1 challenge!! Finally VSC dethroned

finally the real difficulty of the first wave on the first beat drop of deadlocked

How did anyone beat this. Damn.

He’s using blue pads we caught you red-handed

How tf does zoink do this

This looks so difficult. Its almost like a top 1 level

this is an amazing concept

Btw tidal wave was copied off a level called “among us ligma” and it was actually impossible at 2x speed. Spread the awareness

How to make a top 1 level: Step 1: copy paste tight fast wave section till it takes up a significant portion of the level. Step 2: over decorate

I just realised that game named toilet tower defense stoled this music

thats an interesting concept

That’s my icon and colers
