Hope you guys enjoy! If you have the time to read the description thatd be great! Thanks for watching :) EDIT: Guys i didnt forget creators! Im making a sequel called “The 10 Stages of Every Geometry Dash Creator” :D EDIT 2: because of this video i went from 249 to 300 in 3 days!!! I couldnt be thankful enough for this so expect a special soon!

"after 15 minutes you will normally get your first completion" me beating stereo madness after 2 years 💀 EDIT: Finally just got the 3rd coin on can't let go why was that so hard to get 😭

“just got the game” *upside down attempt counter*

Surprised there’s no mention of the stage where you reach the first upside down section in dry out, I feel like it’s noteworthy enough to deserve to be mentioned specifically

5:20 The "I clicked huh......" is so relatable lmao

I took around 1000+ attempts on Stereo Madness because I was just a small kid back then, now I'm at stage 10, and have mastered the level editor, I could've never guessed a 4€ rage platformer has thousands of hours of content.

2:20 bro's only been playing for 15 minutes and knows how to straight fly

I’ve been playing geometry dash for over 3 years now, and I remember the very day I started. Now, here I am no more than a few days ago, sitting in a chair for over 6 hours straight after finally, after almost 750 attempts, completing blast processing. A lot of people may find it strange that I almost cried with joy, but I know in my heart that I will never forget the feeling of relief and reward.

0:00 Stage 1 - Humble Begginings 2:00 Stage 2 - The First Completion 3:24 Stage 3 - Discovery 4:47 Stage 4 - Anger 6:42 Stage 5 - Rage 7:43 Stage 6 - Improvement 8:51 Stage 7 - Demons 9:27 Stage 8A - Demon Slayers (this is me) 9:49 Stage 8B - Star Grinders 10:09 Stage 8C Challenge completionists 10:29 Stage 9 - Boredom (also me) 10:54 Stage 10 - The Return 11:28 Extra Stage 11 - Mastery Stage 12 - ???

I love the way you left off the video with stage 12 not being achieved yet it really puts into perspective how far some of these people will go to push the game to its utmost limits

This is probably one of the best of this style video. It feels so real and actually like someone playing for the first time!

Can't believe somebody finally made a video like this...

I can actually relate to this! I remember raging a lot on The Lightning Road in early 2019, but I still get angry sometimes, but not even close to back then. Now, in 2023, I am a victor of 5 Hard Demons, 3 Insane Demons and almost 2 Extreme Demons (Bloodbath & 55% on Acu). Great video! ;)

When I first played geometry dash I tried every single level and thought I was the best player ever for getting 8% on clubstep

“After it took about 15 minutes for you to finish stereo madness” Bro it took me 6 weeks 💀

Him: “This is my first time playing” Also him: *casually straight flies at the end of stereo madness*

I am the type of noob who beats stereo madness, chooses a random insane level (Electroman Adventures in this case) , and then spends 25,000 attempts to beat it, then continues from Polargeist

I was just browsing on RU-vid and found this masterpiece. I love the video and the fact that mostly no cuss words. I can't imagine how much fun you had making this video lol. You just earned a sub!

2:22 that new player be straight flying lol

I’m at stage 8 (demon slaying) and I would like to say I’m trying to beat my first extreme lost love and died at 95, 4 clicks before beating it and ended up getting a heart rate of 198. This happened yesterday and I’m scared to play it again.

11:55 "It's only a matter of time before they reach... the 12th. Becoming Zoink."

This reminds me of my first time playing GD in 2017, beated tons of recent levels, completed Subzero, Meltdown, World, created many levels but not upload any of them, my hardest demon was The Nightmare Then I took a break in 2020, came back in 2021 and beat Crazy, Crazy II, spent 2 months practicing and got Leyak as my hardest demon. I'm currently trying to beat Abel as my first Extreme Demon. Btw, I do all of this on Mobile Amazing vid man, you really deserved more views

Man I really missed Hamaji Neo's TF2 10 Stages videos. But with Geometry Dash? It totally works, it's really enjoyable. Good job!

me: it took me 3 years to complete stereo madness 👁️👄👁️

This video is super well done and I think it really sums up the 10 stages of a GD player ! It reminds me that I've been trying to beat a new hardest player, Bit Reaper, for 4 months now, and that it's been 2 months since I've done 93%. After about 40 failures at 80%+ and 8000 attempts, I'm completely unmotivated, I feel like I'm never going to make it. If only I could finish it one day..

I thought I was a noob like stage 2 or 3, but now being in stage 7 feels like a reward for not giving up in really hard levels for me like hexagon force, clutterfunk and more. Great video ❤ How did I get top comment 😅

i love the fact that you were trying to create the reactions of a player in the certain stages keep doing videos like this, this was great i like the commantary, editing, and credits ngl the video feels like a school presentation

2:20 "i just got the game!" bro is straight flying like a pro

Cursed is at either stage 9 or 10.

Honestly accurate. I got stuck at stage 4 two or three years ago and decided to take a break from the game. I felt I wasn't going anywhere (got stuck at clutterfunk, NO I'M NOT JOKING, video 100% accurate,) and too much memorization for me. Came back late last year (after watching gd RU-vidrs again) and finally decided to really try and get better. Ended up beating all the main levels in a couple of weeks. Felt amazing. Just skipped stages 5 and 6 lol. Also my demon order was hilarious. I prefer playing something fun rather than something more on my skill level (which is why I never bothered with demons like the nightmare). So I beat deadlocked, then went back and did clubstep and ToE2. After that I set my sights on the level that brought me back to the game, Absolute Garbage. So yeah that was my first community demon. Oh no... This went on a whole lot longer than I intended. I just thought it was neat that I had started playing the game on and off before even 2.1 came out, and now after 5? Years, I finally did it. If there's anything I have to say from all of this, if you're interested in playing geometry dash, just do it. It's one of the most rewarding experiences I've done, even if it's taken me a while to get there. And remember! If you don't die at the end it's a fluke! Need to make sure to beat it twice to make sure!

Was this your second video ever?? Props to this guy, im sure he will become a major content creator one day. And for a second video, this is amazing. Well done

idk why but there's just something so wholesome and cute about a noob playing gdash, finding out the mechanics and stuff and just having fun

I just realized that, I already experienced the 10 stages. Time flew so fast and I really love this game, no matter how many times it made my ragequit. I just need stage 11, although I doubt I really get to that point.

4:24 "...for some reason, my game crashed." For real bro? 💀

Lol the funniest thing is that the first "Triple spike" is not actually a triple haha I disagree with the auto checkpoints thing. I've had them on since i started playing the game, and I got 68% on Crazy lol. I'm in the boredom point now i think. I just obsess over SMO, BOTW and Halo Infinite, may come back to GD in the future. As a side note, WOW! I'm really impressed by the editing in this video, and the thumbnail looks great! You've improved so much as a creator.

"The player has been playing for 10-15 minutes" casually straight flies in the ship part

I remember my first Geometry Dash experience. My cousin said “Hey, bud, wanna help me on this level?” And it was Xstep. I could barely make it through the first jump. 😂

Been playing for almost 10 months. I have over 8000 stars, about to complete the demon gauntlet in like 4 days (I'm at HeLL) and Nine Circles as my hardest. I definitely feel that a I've improved a lot since my last demon completion, He'll (outside the gauntlet) so much so that I beat Sidestep, Traction, Mechanical Showdown, Vibration as well as rebeat them in 2 days.

I'm at stage 6-7, very close to completing my first demon, recently returned to the game, feeling good

Can confirm stage 10. I quit somewhere around 2018 and returned just a few months before 2.2 came out. First time coming back I was really rusty I struggle to beat death moon lol. Now I just play them for fun and maybe some time in the future I could go back making levels and understanding the triggers again. :)

I really like your impressions, it really feels like it's real!!

stage 8D: they use their new found skill to make levels, also known as creators, some people see levels that they beat, and are like "Hey, I want to make a level that's perfect for me, perfect difficulty, perfect decoration, perfect everything" the people who think like that, tend to become creators, people like these, are the people who keep every other type of player in the game, some are better than others, some change back to stage 8A, 8B, 8C, and the final few... well they quit for good...

8:40 i spent 3/4 of a year beating deadlocked on my phone and when i beat it literally could only hear my heartbeat cuz i was so stressed i also accidentally paused at 89% so when i did i thought i died and was getting even more stressed over now :)

I've just recently beaten all the main levels after 3 months of playing the game. In my experience It wasn't dying near the end of the level that angered me the most, but dying early on some parts that I did flawlessly many times, actually dying late only motivated me and made me believe I could be the level (e.g. failed on 93% and right after on 95% on ToE2, and failed on 95% and 97% on Clubstep)

1:50 in the words of DashieXP, “TRIPLE SH*TS!!!!”

5:32 clutterFU-

Wonderful vid! Keep up this amazing content! ❤ ( map creators have left the chat)

Reaching cycles in just a few days? I've been playing on and off for years and I'm celebrating my completion of Base to Base.

7:12 lol

Stages: Stage 1: 0:04 Stage 2: 2:00 Stage 3: 3:24 Stage 4: 4:48 Stage 5: 6:43 Stage 6: 7:45 Stage 7: 8:52 Stage 8A: 9:30 Stage 8B: 9:49 Stage 8C: 10:07 Stage 9: 10:29 Stage 10: 10:55 Extra Stage 11: 11:30

Me who beat fingerdash but is still stuck on time machine:

Im at stage 10, my hardest is Death Step, and as a Demon Grinder, I would add 15 more stages. Stage 11: Enjoyment The player starts enjoying the game even more, now he actually plays it for fun, whether they are a Demon grinder, Challenge completer, or Star grinder. Stage 12: Improvement As the demons he beat was easiest demons, he starts to go for hard easy demons, rarely easy medium demons. Stage 13: Anger (2): Before, the rage was from normal levels, now it's from demons. Stage 14: Rage (2): The same but from demons Stage 15: Medium Demons They start beating Medium Demons, casually improving at the game Stage 16: Hard Demons They start beating the easiest hard demons Stage 17: Creating After they stop playing levels, they will want to create actual levels. Stage 18: Return to Challenge They return to their passion and start to improve. Stage 19: Insane Demons They start beating Insane Demons. Stage 20: EXTREME DEMONS They finally master it! Most likely with things like Cataclysm or Acu, but how good it feels to beat an extreme demon! Stage 21A: Extreme Slayer They form into easy extreme demon slayers. Stage 21B: Challenge Slayer They start beating easy extreme challenges. Stage 21C: Pro Star Grinding They grind stars even more, as they're good at the game now. Stage 22: Extreme Improvements They beat harder and harder demons, it's not easy extremes anymore, after that, they are worthy to go on the next stage... Stage 23: List Grinder He grinds demons like Top 150-50, turning into a great player. Stage 24A: Top 49-10 Slayer He starts slaying demons from Top 49-10. Stage 24B: Challenge Slayer At this stage, the player can grind most challenges. Stage 24C: Star Grinder + He finally grinds a lot of stars, enjoying doing their passion. Stage 25: Mastery Stage 11, but on the new stages. Stage 26: Pure Mastery As of the moment of writing this comment, it's Zoink. The best player in Geometry Dash, who beat the Top 1 and probably was the one that verified it. Stage ∞: Human Limit While now it's impossible, that doesn't mean it's impossible later. They reach the human limit, that is bigger than Tidal Wave, better than Zoink right now, in 2013, Zoink would be in Stage ∞, cuz the human limit was way weaker than Zoink's now...

"a game that they enjoy" its not april fools

I remember back in the day when i was playing on my phone, it took me over 2,000 attempts to beat Clutterfunk, and over 3,000 to beat Clubstep and i was raging so hard, then when i tried ToE 2 i beat it relatively easily thanks to the skill boost from Clubstep :)

5:00 so true I still remember back in fourth grade i used to be stuck at 34% in clutterfunk, which is early on that first ship Man, feels like yesterday since i was introduced to GD.. i've known it since about 2016 and in the past couple months i've been playing much more often than i did a couple years back GD was a huge part of my childhood, and for many many other people as well, and im really glad it was.

Ye this is quite true, the main reason I came back to the game was 2.2 after SO LONG. I recently beat my first hard demon and will probably not quit for a while

6:43 why does dear nostalgists sync with this song so well

Looking back at this video 8 months later, im shocked to see how much I improved. Im stage 10 now. After a 6 month break, I came back for the game, but i wouldn't say im stage 11. Since my return, i beat deadlocked, toe 2, and like 10 other demons. Great video ❤

I beat the first three levels, realized I hated the grinding, and moved on to creating and finding demons with secret ways. I could probably beat some OG levels but I only try X-step and blast processing XD

Purplex: 10-15 minutes you will complete stereo madness Me: beats stereo madness in 3 months

I've never really raged in my GD journey. It's interesting to see how people react differently to dying on difficult levels.

Took me 9 years to beat Time Machine

this is very relatable. The hardest level I have beaten was Clubstep (approx 1,500 -1,600 attempts) but I did find the game to be more challenging and and even before that, after almost beating Fingerdash a while ago, I raged so hard that I almost completely broke my device. Despite finding many new awesome creator levels, it's almost hard for me to feel the same amount of excitement as when I beat levels like Polargeist and Electroman Adventures. I only have two main levels left but I do find some levels to be absolutely awesome (I recommend Nantendo). Earned a new sub bro.

When I was a begginer,I was struggling on stereo madness.But now,I beat: Stereo Madness Back on Track Polargeist Dry out Base After base Can't Let Go Jumper Time Machine Cycles xStep Clutterfunk Theory Of Everything Electroman Adventures Blast Processing Geometrical Dominator Fingerdash

2:10 it's such an early stage to be clicking the mouse that hard lmao

3:25 sync

Bro I’m taking years to beat lvl 2

"I hate the flying!" "Is this a triangle ship" "Am I playing upside down?!?!" "This spiky ball thing goes up and down?!" These are some of the reactions I saw from youtubers playing GD for the first time and I couldn't help but laugh sometimes lol

you forgot abt the "Can't let go depression era" It took me 600+ attempts my first time 😭

Why is the death message hotel😂😂😂😂 3:15

5:48 wait why do I feel called out

im the type of player that started off the last levels. my first level to finish was of course stereo madness, but then, i wanted to make the hard ones and tried fingerdash. i was so confused at the first time, but by playing it 30 mins a day in a month, i knew what things do. i completed this level after another month.

1:38 anyone noticed the testmode text?

0:55 Back in my days xstep was the hardest; Guess what, my favourite level is xstep😂😂

8A and 8B gang 👇

Srage 1 and 2 are real. Stage 3 was trying to get all coins and skipped every level after 5 attempts. Then spent all my time on online levels and level building. That's how my journey went, I still only play 50% of a level and move on to next

0:24 bro missed a super rare background icon 💀

10:43 rip

3:37 Me habría gustado ver una mención similar sobre la primera vez que descubres un portal de espejo en "Time Machine". Muy buen video, me encantó, me trajo buenos recuerdos.

7:15 GDiri: this is a stage I can almost guarantee every player has gone through. Me: the key word here is almost, and for me it is true as I have never had the rage stage.

This game means a lot to me. It hit kinda hard when I beat Cataclysm in like a day or two when it used to be this impossible beast when I was a kid. I have 80 on Blade of Justice and I’m about to beat Omicron. I’m definitely the demon slayer type

7:32 so funny

4:06 oh my goodness. ay 55😃

You made this so perfectly. Nice job!

5:19 just hold u son of a ding dong

idk why when I saw the part "Humble Beginning" it made me feel nostalgia.

You forgot me spending those 10-15 minutes figuring out how to open the first level😭💀

this video shows an innocent young man unwillingly descends into madness and unquitable game that slowly destroys their keyboard

"i fear no demon" "But cluttefunk..." "That thing scares me" Me

I would say my journey in GD is kind of atypical. First of all, I first played GD when I was 6, and back then, I only had GD lite and meltdown. As I was a little kid I wasn't able to beat anything. Then, I got my tablet taken away and a few years later, I got GD world and that was when I beat my first level: payload, because I was older and so it was easier for me. It was also the first time I got access to online levels, so I did some levels, and my hardest at the time was a hard level. That was also one of the most important periods of time, and I remember just how fun GD was for me. After a bit of time, I also got 200 diamonds and unlocked the Challenge and some other stuff, and at that time it was a big achievement for me. Unfortunately, then I lost some of my progress, then a few years later I accidentally deleted all my save data, and I was devastated. Then, eventually (like half a year ago) I did get the full version and I was determined to get my progress back and more. (I think one of the greatest moments in my GD journey isn't any achievement but simply getting the full version.) I found out about this level called Nine Circles and I loved it, so even though I wasn't nearly skilled enough to beat it I tried to play it and eventually got 43%. The wave part looked impossible for me, and I couldn't ever imagine myself doing it. Then, I got to the point of playing demons, and I was trying to get my first demon. Then, I found out about a level called Platinum Adventure and I got it as my first demon. I only took 1 hour to beat it though, and it didn't feel very rewarding, it just mostly fell flat. After that I was determined to beat more demons to finally actually feel accomplished and to prove that I could actually beat demons, not just 7 stars in disguise. I consider Respite to be my first real demon. Then, one day I randomly thought about Deadlocked and felt like playing it, even though I thought I wasn't good enough for it yet. I ended up beating it in 4 days lol. Now, after working on my skills, I went back to Nine Circles and went, "I think I can actually do this now." Now I have a run that's from the drop to like 75% of the whole wave part. I'm just looking back and comparing what NC felt like before, and this really puts into perspective how far I've gotten. I feel like when (if?) I actually beat Nine Circles it'll feel bigger than getting my first demon or anything like that.

“10-15 minutes” *me in the background, who spent 2 years beating stereo madness*

Couldn’t agree better that you might quit for a while, I did for a month or 2 and zoomed back though levels 1-7 *Edit after 2 weeks, I beat XStep and literal TOE, Blast processing all before I finally beat Time Machine and I’m now working on building levels and beating Cycles*

“After about 15 minutes” after about 4 years

On stage 2 they have 2 options 1. Complete the basic levels 2. Quit the game because it takes too long

it's has been two years since the last time i saw your channel from 100 subs and now you are popular......I just want to say i'm happy for you bro!!!! Keep up the good works (Do you remember me?)

The straight flying on stereo madness has me weak 😭😭😭

I love this video and the examples ❤

5:45 I would blame the unvirse for making that happen to me

"They'll finally finish stereo madness" Bro has a better straight fly than me already 💀

“Ohhh that’s why I suck at the game it’s spamming checkpoints..” *spams checkpoints*
