The History of the Hardest Mobile Demon (feat. Tride) 

It was super weird hearing my own voice, but you did an awesome job with the video, really enjoyed it!

As a honorable mention: Hilo got to 52% on Plasma Pulse Finale on early 2019, arguably one of the hardest accomplishments at the time.

fact: back on track has frame perfects on 6 FPS

12:14 I like how they blurred out the screen of the phone as if we couldn’t recognize the level anyway

Imagine that one day, you checked the (60hz) mobile list to see #1 and #2 demons being Celestial Force and... Plasma Pulse III. 3 and a half years later, and here I am, still in disbelief. Because really, look at the gap between the two used-to-be-hardest-on-mobile demons. CF is now at #14 and PP3 at #86. Sometimes, I have a good laugh at what I've done right there ; creating what I believe a massive hole. Gonna give a fun fact : Celestial Force wasn't in top 10 in Pointercrate initially. However, for some reason, it got moved up to #10 like 2 weeks before I beat it. Huge shoutout to the people that asked for the placement raise.

Its crazy how people back then took such low attempt counts for achievements. If one person were to spend the amounts we spend today, history would have been written in such a different way.

oh my god how did I randomly just find this video on yt thank you so much this is the best video ever this is so awesome

25.03.2023 - Bloodlust beaten by Noxop on 144hz, new TOP-1 24.04.2023 - Aerial Gleam beaten by VERTOP on 144hz, new TOP-1

Dang, didn’t realize how much more difficult it was on mobile. Now I don’t have to feel guilty about struggling with The Nightmare

Glad to be able to help out with this video, it’s really cool to see how this small community has evolved! Thanks a bunch for making this

ThunderBT's rise to one of the greatest mobile players of all time is one of the things I'm lucky to have seen happen.

Crazy to think that today, levels like Yatagarasu, Sigma and RUST were beaten on mobile as well, man I can't wait to hopefully reach these amazing people's level of skill and dedication

Biprex best player to have ever touched this game by FAR just look at the mobile list and even the overal 60hz list

Happy to see this video, I’ve been waiting for a new video about mobile players history, just one thing I’d like to say is you should’ve generalized it with monumental moments, for example on January 30th, 2021 3 60Hz mobile victors completed bloodbath and etc, other than that thanks for this video 🙏

6:38 As a Mobile The Ultimate Phase Victor (TUP), Cataclysm is way harder than TUP because the only hard parts of TUP are Woogi and the very long 65-82 shop while Cataclysm is very hard from the very start and has tougher straight flies than TUP

as a former mobile player myself, im so happy a video like this one is out! everyone mentioned in this video is so deserving of their recognition.

Im so glad people are talking about the mobile achievements more. Awesome video.

Brilliant video! I’m so glad to see a video made about the mobile community :)

Finally, the mobile community has some light

This video slapped! Great topic, great writing, and great editing. Thoroughly enjoyed this, such an impressive sub community of the game!

Super nice video! I'm glad to see mobile players of the GD community getting the recognition they *seriously* deserve

This type of quality documentary video for a small sized channel like this is beyond amazing. Tride also did a wonderful job on voicing this video

Great video! I know this isn't even comparable, but I recently beat nine circles on mobile (personal hardest) which I'm pretty proud about

Such a good video this is a topic i never thought anyone would talk about great work as always

Great video thanks for covering it so well

I love seeing videos like this recognizing the mobile community as I am a 60hz mobile player myself. My hardest is tempest tornado but my eventual goal is renevant. Idk if I’ll beat it but if I do you might have to update the video ;)

Really happy to see a new video about mobile players!! ;)

finally a video on mobile players. well written

It's cool to see how old, meaningful levels are remembered in our time. Thank's for video!

This video is awesome, as a (sort of) top mobile player it's nice to see us get some recognition

That's really nice, I remember my main goal being beating Hatred back in 2018, but I clearly didn't have the skill level so I went for Spectral Tentation

We also gotta take in consideration that Zentel took over a YEAR to beat Crimson Planet on 120hz mobile which makes it even more shocking as to how much dedication they put into the completion.

Awesome video, great job!

Really cool recap, I only found out about the list when Plasma Pulse III was #1, so it was interesting to see what occurred before then!

Congrats dude, you've just earned a new sub!

Fire vid props to everyone who worked on it

Amazing video, love to see recognition being given to mobile community

amazing video, but i do think biprex’s completion of sonic wave on 60hz mobile deserves some more recognition in this video because of how wild the achievement is

8,000th sub, keep it up man!

I never thought I would hear Tride here, anyway, great video.

amazing video!!

Amazing documentary, thanks Tride!

inSANE edit: wait hey i beat xo in march not april :skull:

Would’ve been cool to hear some progresses on levels harder than Sonic Wave at the end but still an amazing video! Loved it a lot. (from a top 10 mobile player)

great video!

This is incredible 👏

Amazing vid!

So good, enjoyed every second of it

loved that you used the unova route 10 bgm

April 2023 - Bloodlust and Aerial Gleam Verified on mobile. GD community continues to amaze me.

Oh woah, it's wild seeing my own comment in a vid like this. I used to play GD a LOT back in the days and tried to follow the scene as closely as possible. I've come back to watch some videos because I was curious as to what the game looked like nowadays and everything has gotten so much better, from players to content creators. No shade to the first people that started making documentaries in the community of course, but now it all feels much more.. Polished.

14:30 the sheer dedication came from the player being in love with the concept

Excellent video! I can see the inspiration from summoningsalt

Woah, its weird hearing Tride's voice in a NON Tride video, otherwise Well done on this video septa!

neat video. cool to see some mobile recognition (?) i dont know its just sorta neat coming from a mobile player

Very well scripted video, no time wasting and straight to the point without feeling rushed

I’m a mobile player and I’ve beaten 3 demons so far and could probably do more if I put more effort into the game, I have a huge amount of respect for all those that challenge themselves with hard levels on mobile and I am glad this video was made. Edit: Also the hertz stuff can be annoying when making certain levels much less possible on mobile..higher refresh rates and stuff like that is probably one of the things that makes huge differences between mobile and pc players…

Septa with his hard work amazes me something worth my interest.

Very well made

Why did everyone forget when Thunder got 76% on Cold Sweat on 60hz Mobile (and also fluked it from 34)

Love it!

Right now I’m trying to be the first victory on energizer on mobile it’s pretty cool how I’m getting close to beating more insane and extreme demons on mobile and that’s there is people that can beat these insane levels

Just a quick remark, the difficulty is also counted if it’s 2 players that’s why the top 100 and 99 and both insane.

Mobile Players can prove others, than they are way bigger than people think! I am one myself I am not necesserally very good but I beat a few Hard demons. I am proud of these Players. Another great documentary video.

This is gonna be interesting

theres a bug where ios 15 makes geometry dash crash every time you try to launch it so i havent been able to play for months. i really hope its fixed :( good video btw! great to see mobile recognition

As a mobile player myself, it's nice to see some recognition of our part

what we did in the desert sounds so good with that reverb

11:35 The ride: "only" Subtitles: "over"

Good video! surprised to see Novalis was #1 at one point.

Amazing video ! Can you do a another video like this it's a bit old

As I use 60fps on mobile, I can say it’s a pain

Transporters are special items in Geometry Dash that the icon can interact with to cause it to travel a certain distance and direction, depending on its type. There are two types of transporters, pads and rings, both of which can manipulate the direction of travel. They emit identically-coloured particle effects to themselves. When used, pads also emit an identically-coloured expanding circle effect and rings emit identically coloured contracting circle effect. Pads always activate when in contact with the icon, while rings require a click/tap in order for any effect and thus optional. They may be positioned so that they redirect the player into a hazard, needing to be avoided in such instances. As of Update 1.6, some transporters are introduced as part of collecting secret coins prior to their formal introduction. These include the yellow, cyan and magenta pads as well as the magenta ring. Transporters are available under the seventh tab in the level editor, along with portals, animated objects, collectibles, and other components. Interacting with any type of jump ring counts as a jump regardless of if the player’s form can jump. Geometry Dash Meltdown only features the yellow pad and ring. The customizable square ring is the only type of transporter whose colour can be altered without the assistance of the Pulse trigger. The magenta pad, despite launching the icon a smaller height, has a slightly larger size than the yellow pad. Dash rings can be held on to indefinitely, propelling the player for as long as it is held. They will only stop when the player comes into contact with an S-block. In Fingerdash where they are introduced formally, the purpose of gravity portals in marking the ends of dashing (to prevent abuse) is purely visual; it is the invisible S-blocks that terminate the dashes. Portals do not cancel the dash ring effect, contrary to popular belief. This can be verified in The Challenge, by the exit of the Spider sequence. The cyan ring is the only non-jump ring that has a pad equivalent. The customizable square's automatic equivalent is merely a (touch) trigger on its own. The green and black rings do not have corresponding pads because they force the player in the direction of gravity, thereby invalidating the purpose of a pad, which is to launch away from the ground, even if they would theoretically work while suspended in midair or on a surface not perpendicular to the direction of gravity. The player can crash from hitting the ground if they hit the green ring or theoretical pad too low to the ground. No effect applies if the player hits the black ring or theoretical pad if they have already landed. The dash rings do not have corresponding pads because their activation duration depends on the player's click/tap and hold. Dash rings can be rotated to send the icon in an angled direction without changing the horizontal velocity, with the rotation limit being ±70°. The limit can theoretically be ±89.999…° (or 89° since the game uses whole-degree angles), but due to the horizontal velocity not affected, the vertical movement would reach ludicrous speeds. Angles ±90° are necessarily prohibited due to them being straight vertical directions, violating the requirement of the icon moving horizontally at unchanged velocities. Mathematically, this is demonstrated by that the tangents of ±90° are undefined. Angles beyond ±90° would mean launches that oppose the correct direction. It is possible to horizontally flip a dash ring so it points backwards; however, it is only visual and has no effect on the direction of travel: the player would dash the reverse of the pointed direction. Due to naturally unchanging momentum, the wave does not respond to jump pads or rings, while gravity pads and rings flip gravity on contact without further effect on momentum. Dash rings work as normal. These jump pads and rings still trigger their pulse animation, however. Prior to Update 2.1, the yellow jump ring had white particles emitting instead of yellow. The red pad displays the wrong particle colours when used: the red pad produces a yellow or magenta circle when hit. The red pad may be based on the code of the yellow pad and RobTop may have simply forgotten to change those specific attributes. The red pad is thicker than the yellow pad. It also sinks below the block by one pixel. The dash rings were changed slightly between the release of the Update 2.1 sneak peeks and the official release: The magenta dash ring was previously red, and still has red particles nowadays; Both dash rings had triangular pointers; The flame effect shown when hitting a dash ring was different than the current effect. It was less animated and more solid. The dash rings' help buttons when selecting the "Edit Special" button displays the placeholder "help text" rather than explaining the properties of the options shown. This is a placeholder that was never changed in the final version. Multi-activation allows the same jump ring to be activated multiple times. This is mainly for reusing moving rings. Other than the green jump ring (which will crash the player into the ground), there are no differences between rings on the ground and in midair, as demonstrated in Deadlocked and many user levels. Before 2.11, the black jump ring made the ship and UFO go downward regardless of gravity. This is a patched oversight. When either touches a dash ring, it will not show any glow regardless if the player has the glow effect on or not. When a player glides over a ring without activating it, it will show an expanding ring effect indicating its availability. The same ring may play the effect multiple times if a setup allows the ring to be passed multiple times, as seen on one of the rings in the first cube sequence of Cycles.

Just a note, Hinds beat Necropolis in May 2015

Fun fact : ThunderBT also got to the wave in Cold Sweat from 0 a year(?) ago

Cool video

I've heard that voice somewhere, I swear I've heard that before. I'll come back after I remember it

Cool!

These guys inspire me as a mobile player, they show that anybody can beat these demons (unless they’re literally impossible on 60hz)

As a mobile player jumping fron DeCode to Allegiance, this is very motivating.

good video fell asleep at 9:55 though because of congregation music

i remember way back when necropolis was on the demon list. i believe it only had 50 levels at the time. i remember trying to beat it on mobile several years ago and i actually got to 52% but after several thousand attempts i gave up. i really thought i was gonna be the first to do it at one point. i didn’t know of any other mobile player at the time that had beat it yet (this was back in 2015). i wasn’t very skilled at the game but necropolis is almost entirely timing-based gameplay so it doesn’t have a steep learning curve at all. but the thing is, timings in general are much more difficult on a 60hz small iphone 5C screen than a 24 inch 240hz monitor lol in the years since then i’ve played the game off and on, and i finally reached 200 demons (supersonic) and switched to PC earlier this year. i still only have 68% on necropolis, although i haven’t played it in a long time.

i was watching dashY's process on sonic wave. I watched him get 86% for the first time when he had around 10k subs but like 25 viewers. complete gg's to dashY

I used to be friends with Josh back in the Everyplay era. I'm proud of him ^^

Crazy to think that DashY got firework in 3 runs on MOBILE and he got like 60-100 on trueffet he’s actually such a goat

holy shit, it's been so long since the last time i heard the name GeomtryJosh

7.77k subs. Nice!

This is a great video, i'm a mobile player, and i've never played on PC, and my dream has always been to beat an exteme dmon this is good inspiration

For sunset sandstorm you can hear the guys mom cheering him on I wish my mom did that lol

My 59% on killbot on mobile feels like stereo madness when compared to top mobile players, i don't know how these people do it

Now we need the history of mobile players

i have 84% progress on acu on mobile 60hz, hopefully i will beat it soon

aeral gleam in HRR and cold sweat in LRR now

the nightmare on a 1/4 fps iphone 4 is harder than any level on these lists. Especially when the game crashes halfway thru the level.

The music at about 6:10 sounds like Nuke Powder by MaelouX

Good video but I thought reduniverse verified crimson clutter on mobile and uploaded his deadly clubstep completion on April 4, 2015

8:24 my man really just screamed in lowercase

My hardest demon on Mobile so far is Necropolis, which took over 14k attempts

dashys reaction is the most finnish reaction to beating the new hardest demon on mobile
