My Least Favorite Levels in Geometry Dash 

It's always cool to see how many non-GD youtubers still play the game today and enjoy it! So far Geometry Dash is the one game I have never quit even after playing it since 2014 and I don't think I'll ever quit tbh. The community and levels people make are amazing!

I love how alex never stays on one topic for too long so you can always find him again.

I’ve sort of left the community of geometry dash a few years ago, but seeing these levels really gave me a weird sort of hatred nostalgia for them. I remember playing levels like “Theory of relativity” and raging so hard because of how terrible they were. I played it a lot back then, but after a while it got kinda boring. I stopped grinding, I phased off the leaderboard and disappeared from the community. But this video just sorta gave me a strange feeling of nostalgia over these levels I hated so much. Great video Alex ;)

My personal least favorite level has got to be Starquake from one of the early Demon Packs. Everything about the level is perfectly designed to be the antithesis of what a good level looks and plays like.

Not only does Odyssey have bad gameplay, it's really forgettable. I completely forgot it existed until you mentioned it, and even had to check if I beat it or not. Really love this video btw, and it's pretty agreeable

I didn't know you were such a big GD fan! I've also been in this community for too long, almost since 1.0, and I can say I really enjoyed this video! I do agree that Oddysey and Theory of Relativity suck and that Dynamic on Track isn't as bad as it's told by the community, so I can see your points. Overall amazing vid as always, keep up the good work man :D

As always, its dope seeing a non-GD youtuber talking about GD. Also, I find the Chase levels in the gauntlet worse mainly bc of the difficulty balancing, and if its not him, then I consider Darkness Keeper by AbstractDark the worst gauntlet level in Geometry Dash, but I digress. Overall I like how you cover the more in-depth side of GD levels that not many outsiders know about without being complicated. It just makes for a good proper introduction to the game, and Im all in for it. ^^ Also for the map packs... PG Clubstep. Enough said. :)

God, I feel too old to be in the GD community, but here goes: This is a phenomenal video. We really need new eyes to view GD, make what was strange seem familiar, make what was familiar seem strange. I loved how you played through old versions and their updates to play with our expectations. I love how you didn’t talk down to us. You seem like a really promising variety channel. Your videos getting a consistent view count across different topics is deserved. Keep it up!

Bouta binge watch this whole thing yessirrrr 👏👏👏

I always believed that magmatic sanctuary was the worst map pack level. I hate those wave parts so much.

Were we the same person? Plants vs Zombies, Geometry Dash, Polygoons, Monster School, everything!

I do agree, portal is very annoying to play. Also, I hope no one will spam 2.2 features once it comes (mostly likely will sadly) Edit: Camera effects are the ones I worry about the most, make things even more unsight-readable

This guy makes videos on literally everything I like!! Keep it up :D

Honestly I think that having to memorize easier difficulty levels is an issue with map packs. So many earlier map pack levels require memorization that doesn't seem fun to do unless if it is rated insane difficulty or above. Levels like square adventure and portal hold this issue and it's why I personally despise map pack levels. Also when you finally get to the demon levels and think the memorization will finally be bearable now, you get starquake. Anyways this was a great video! :D

It's been so long since I just sat down and played the game and didn't just grind extreme demons that I barely have any opinions on easier levels anymore, the only thing I can say for sure is that Crystal by Zeronium is my least favorite level in the game lol

Listening to the rhythm heaven soundtrack as background music really makes me want a rhythm heaven video from you!

Hey! Wanted to leave a comment before i watch the video. THANK YOU SO MUCH for making the my singing monsters tierlist. I thought that msm was just a weird game that was like, idk, Dragon City and just didnt play it. But once you made a tierlist about the songs on msm, I listened to them, and immediately downloaded the game. I love it. Thank you so much. This game is so good and thx to you ive loved this game. Right now im speedrunning the islands to get all the monsters. Hope for the best for you since, honestly... after the pvz2 but only pvz1 videos, you're one of my favourite youtubers mate (im not british i just like saying mate). Anyways, time to watch the video. Ill edit the comment once im done watching it. Welp, great video! It would be cool to see your favourite levels! Or maybe, favourite level by every pack and like not do a full 5 minutes for every level, maybe like 1 minute per favourite level? I dont remember how many packs are there, but i would suggest to do that. Also good job! Continue with the good stuff.

Woah I had no idea you played geometry dash. I genuinely love this game (wow no way) awesome to see you make a video on it!

I want to make one major correction about why I used to hate Dynamic on Track and why many players likely hated it. There was a bug in that level for a long time that rendered it unbeatable to anyone with a refresh rate higher than 60hz. Meaning you would have to lower your refresh rate in order to complete a 5 star. Obviously, it wouldn't be that bad with megahack nowadays, but before the level was updated there wasn't easy way to make that happen. Meaning for players like myself, it was annoying to attempt to complete. Obviously, that shouldn't ruin a reputation for an entire level, but it definitely causes me flashbacks anytime I see the name Dynamic on Track

Out of all people, I never expected this guy to make a video about this amazing game.

1:22 OH THATS FUNNIER THAN AN ALBINO RAT ON CRACK 😂😂😂😂

Absolutely love your videos, and this one is no exception! I’d love for you to dive into The Battle Cats as it’s still very active and filled with content after so many years. There’s also a lack of videos reviewing the game, especially from non battle cats youtubers, and it’d be amazing to see you make a video on it. You might have to sink a lot of hours into the game to get a good understanding of it, though. But anyways, keep up the amazing work!

One issue I have with a lot of the hard user made levels is just the crazy visuals making the game just not fun to play. It’s sensory overload in the worst way for me

0:24 geometry dash: this video pvz: has videos on the channel cookie run: has videos on the channel msm: has videos on the channel battle cats: hmmmmmm

I agree with how most map pack level don’t need unnecessary updates that makes the level more unenjoyable

Huh? A VIDEO ABOUT GD LESS GO!! thank you!! This is what i NEEDED today

Suprised you didn't include generation retro in this video but that's fine. Great vid as usual.

i'm so glad i beat these map pack levels in 1.9. i haven't seen the updated versions till now. what the heck

"Im sorry colonge" got me rolling

I first found you when I loved PvZ now I find you when I started playing gd again! This is amazing

I didn't even know Dynamic on Track was updated... Robtop should lock Map Pack and Gauntlet levels from being updated bcuz those last 2 examples are awful!

Dw, I hate Odyssey too. The annoying transitions are the reason I've halted my magic gauntlet progress for years 😭

I never knew Geometry Dash had a following. Yeah I knew people played it even after 10 years (Happy belated 10 year anniversary btw, GD) but I find it astonishing that such a simple game is this popular. Anyway, I think GD is a cool game, though I will admit the levels in the game (specifically the ones you provided in the video) seem more focused on appearances than gameplay, and I am not a huge fan of rapid flashing lights. At least, that’s my opinion. GD, for me, was one of those games where I played it and stepped away from it after a week or two. Seeing this video reminded me of the good times I had of GD, albeit short, and recording a cringe-ass video on it roughly over 7 years ago. 😅 Overall this was a great video and I’m interested to see what else you’ve got planned.

5:44 I knew I wasn’t the only one, in that I’ve lost many accounts and lost all progress.

Dude congrats on 40k been a since 5k

my man is in every community i am somewhat in its not funny

Electrodynamix better appear in this video

I agree with you when you said Odyssey was the WORST gauntlet level.. I BEAT iSpyWithMyLittleEye, Demon Seeker, and Bwomp Processing WAYY faster.

5:15 as a mobile player this is why im dreading when Change Of Scene gets into the discord gauntlet. (also i so happen to notice the battle cats, nice)

i think it would be really cool to see a cookie tier list from alex, i dont know if he plays the game but it seems like an interesting video idea

Practice mode is a lifesaver with these levels

i like this video :D i can definitely see why you hate those levels! would definitely watch more gd content from you

Awesome video bro i remember when you had 5k subs lol

As a Geometry Dash addict, this video was pretty cool and I know a lot really bad and stupid levels not too well known if you'd like bad level suggestions :p

I actually argue that, despite having all the markers of a bad map pack level, I really like Tyrian Wall. It takes be back to the oldest days of geometry dash, and makes me feel like I’m a god at the game. It looks very similar to old impossible levels without the actual difficulty, which gives me a level of satisfaction that should be impossible for an 8-star. Some of the gameplay is rather fun too, at least when you get the hang of it. The first ball is one of my favorites.

Hey pal. As someone who likes PvZ and GD, your channel has piqued my interest recently. Keep up the variety content. If i could make some recommendations, team fortress 2, subnautica, and strategy games like Rebel Inc. are great games for content.

Wow I watched your pvz vids I didn’t know that you were a GD Fan too! I’ve been here since the start of 2.1, and it’s kind of crazy to say that I’ve been here for over 2/3 of the games lifespan. Who know’s what’s possible in 2.2? Probably more bad levels, but also probably the best we are ever going to see.

We need generation retro in here

Well logically, the next video on GD should be about your favourite/best levels in your opinion. There are peaks such as Change of Scene, ISpyWithMyLittleEye, White Space, SayItBack, Absolute Garbage, Floating Outskirts, WHAT, Eschaton Pxttxrn Sxxkxr, Glorious Fortress, Ultra Violence and many more. I highly recommend SayItBack, as it became one of, if not my most favorite level of all time

WAIT SO MSM PVZ AND GD? UR AMAZING

I have two least favorite levels And funnily enough both of them are not only from Gauntlets but also suffer from a similar issue... Sightreadability The two levels in question are Vibration by Schady (4th demon Gauntlet level) and Hellgate Menace by Chase (Final Monster Gauntlet level) Starting with Vibration since it's so much Shorter to express my frustration with this level Basically it's a level where consistency is non-existent Shit appears in your face without warning And it is impossible to know where you go next Special mention to the part where you have to skip a blue gravity portal that looks way too much like the intended path, that is just evil Also the level's decoration is just... Uninteresting and Bland, I would not remember this level's existence if it wasn't so bad As for Hellgate Menace Chase is known to make levels that are basically impossible to beat without practice mode And bossfights (which is what the monster Gauntlet is all about) tend to be difficult to sightread when attacks are telegraphed poorly or just not at all (See the 2nd level of that same Gauntlet) put those two things together and you get a level that looks nice but is absolutely horrendeus to play Alot of attacks are telegraphed poorly to the point where you either run into the attack anyway or have no idea how you're dodging it to begin with And that's when the level is nice enough to telegraph said attacks since there are also bats that shoot fireballs that are hard to see with all the other stuff flying across the screen which can and very much so will kill you Oh yeah did I mention this is only phase 1 Phase 2 has more unpredictable bats and completely untelegraphed attacks but here I can kinda excuse it since the path is straightforward enough where you can get it while sightreading Phase 3 isn't that bad except whoopsie the boss's final form looks like decoration and it zaps you when you aren't looking Hellgate Menace is probably worse but honestly both levels caused me a more or less equal amount of pain

You are now officially a PVZ-My Singing Monsters-Geometry Dash youtuber.

i remember suffering at dynamic on track while playing on phone, decided to do a practice run and did it in one attempt

I swear this guy talks about literally every single one of my interests

empyrean is so much more horrific than odyssey and i stand by that

finally a person who isnt a colon meatrider and hates on generation retro because of his video

always loved GD and i personally see it as a game that has that one aspect that not many games can say about themselves, being the community. Besides that though, pretty flabbergasting video dawg, keep it up 🔥

Didn't know you play GD! That's definitely a nice surprise! Also, what's your name on GD? I would like to play your levels (if you have any).

i am building a level and i wanted to call it "theory of relativity" at first, but then checked if there already were rated levels with that name. sure enough, there it was, so i decided to use a different name. but only today did i learn what a reputation the rated level has...

Dude, cookie run ovenbreak is in a REALLY, REALLY good state right now. People are just afraid of change. The gem update was really great and ftp friendly. Just wish you could buy more than 10 sets of crystals a week

9:13 I kid you not I had the exact same thought about how P0rtal being made in 2.2 could have been so much better when I finally beat it a few weeks ago. Another great video with another great game to discuss

1:35 thank god, someone finally shares my hate for these kinds of fnf "songs"

I'm so surprised no-one every talks about how bad Polyhedral from the ice gauntlet is, the block design is the same the whole way through. the drop is just... going in a straight line with 10% of it being little bits of gameplay and the gameplay as a whole is very weird, to say. like the gameplay is wrong, some parts you have to buffer weirdly or have click patterns that don't fit. if you don't know what I mean just look at 77% - 79%. The level as a whole is such an uninspired mess with a repetitive song.

1. wake up 2. new alex video 3. "omg new alex video" 4. geometry dash video 5. >geometry dash

i love algebra boost good vid

Absolutely loved this video. I’ve been playing actively for 8 years now and it’s fun to see someone pick apart levels from when I was still starting out. As for my picks… - Hellgate Menace is probably the worst gauntlet level for me. Impressive visually but a chore to play - PG clubstep probably isn’t the worst demon in the map packs but it is the hardest, and all map pack demons are basically equally awful if you ask me. - The entire doom gauntlet could take this spot but I dislike Nowise I’m particular. Just found it really annoying honestly. Again, great stuff would love to see more

Damn, these levels really are atrocious. I always find it interesting to hear other peoples opinions on level design, especially for games like Geometry Dash. Also, I have not heard anyone mention CROB for a while (still don't know if I should get back to playing it)

It’s understandable that Odyssey isn’t that great of a level because it was created back in 2017 and made by all “unknown” creators that probably were less experienced

fun fact : goldenclub had a very hard extreme demon (156 on the list) called golden club and i mix them lol

I really love your avatar it's so simple I love it❤

My least favorite level is Electroman Adventures. It has a cringy song, terrible decoration, and it’s the only official level to use fragile blocks, which is VERY inconsistent.

- "i hate the theory of relativity" - "yeah man its the worst gd level" - "whats gd?"

DUDE YOUVE PLAYED BATTLE CATS AND RHYTHM HEAVEN???? This is a civilized person right here

11:40 Wait, by this logic decoration in levels should straight up not exist. Whilst I do agree that the 2.0 update to the level made it look unclean, unsightreadable, and bad, this criticism is pretty dangerous to apply to all levels.

Hey theoriginalalex. I know you enjoy reading discourse about GD, but the real question is, what is your favourite sandwich? im dying to know :)

oh man, as a Samsung mobile player, oh for the love of god did I hate Odyssey. The lag was unbearable at the drop, and the abrupt speed changes are only made like 10 times harder by my device running at a crispy -20 frames a second. An interesting thing about Odyssey, it's not alone in being a shitty magic gauntlet level, Kalaxian (the one before it) is ass and the one after (Empyrean) is satan spawn, and on my device about as laggy as Odyssey, just not a good gauntlet.

Bro explained the biggest problems for the gd community imo on the first level lol. Unsightreadble game play, blind transitions, confusing game play, un needed jump pads that always somehow throw me off, blind jumps, blind gravity/size changes. All so annoying and obnoxious and they make a fun level absolutely horrible to play

Finally, new video🔥🔥🔥

So are you gonna cover the Impossible Game 2 next? I've always wanted someone to talk about the game the the history behind it. If you need any assistance, feel free to contact me. I'm one of the current beta testers and have been playing it since the beta release. I can give some insight on the history of the game.

In my opinion, the worst gauntlet level HAS to be Generation Retro. Colon pretty much said it himself.

great video :3

With 2.2 now out I wanna see his opinion on lobotomy levels

I think placing orbs in the ground are fine. Just put the ground on the higher layer so that less than half of the orb is covered, this makes it less ugly.

Lets goo geometry dash video:D

1:49 is no one going to talk about the sync lol

Once again, he made another interesting video!

Don't worry Alex, I like your first level.

Geometric run video lets gooo

Would love to hear your thoughs on minigame levels in geometry dash.

8:50 i've played recently a couple of behemouth 4-5 stars levels, i played a 4 stars today that toke me legit 75 att just because a ufo part was absurdly hard, and a 5 stars in 68 att by also a super hard ufo section, ot sucks, i think some of these levels should have their dificulty reworked The name of the 5 stars one: eutrophication The name of the 4 stars one: evolution 15:30 yeah, i defo think that some levels should be pumped up in terms of the star dificulty, soo it can be liked more, like those 4-5 stars level that i said, they are like 8-9 stars, though they are still totally umbalanced mess with hard demon ufo Gameplay

i don't play this game that much, but i have a friend who is absolutely addicted to geometry dash and has been waiting for an update for ages 😭

I'm making a new account for 2.2 since my old one is lb banned, so I'm not looking forward to having rebeat all of these levels 😭 I personally dont remember any of these being too terribly bad, but i hated playing starquake and flappy weird.

i rlly dont like gd as a game but i rlly like watching gd videos for some reason AND YOU ARE ONE OF THEM :0

empyrean is so much worse than odyssey in my eyes, at least odyssey has a cool and calm atmosphere so i actually want to persist through the bad gameplay empyrean is a miserable, excruciating, poorly decorated mess with gameplay that makes me miss thinking space

Ok so you're a parappa fan AND a gd fan??? ur prolly my fav youtuber now

problem with dynamic on track is that its unsightreadable and you cant jump at any random moment. when every input you do is death or living its a huge problem. if you are not a beginner you will never understand how bad dynamic on track is because of invisible difficulty. you will be blinded by your current too big of a skill. everyone has who talked about dynamic on track

My least favorite level has to be fire aura (from the magma gauntlet despite it being FIRE aura). The gameplay just feels wack and I hate going on it, still haven’t even finished it yet.

im not finished yet so idk if you mentioned it, but this game is much easier and more fun imo when done on pc, that and using practice mode more, no matter how easy the level is. doing those will let you have a better time

Just out of curiosity, do you primarily use the pc version, or the mobile version?

Great video! How are you btw?
