Who Was The KING Of Geometry Dash? 

(The following is google translation) I really appreciate MatMart for making this video, I am also glad that there are still people who remember these trivial histories, While it doesn't have to be perfect, these are my memories, I feel very happy, those times when making levels. I was scolded several times by my mother for this (Because I keep playing with my phone XD) When I was a high school student, When "Level Easy" was made I can't imagine it getting so much attention, This made me work harder at making levels, Even if it's not high quality. Like the video says, I'll wait for version 2.2 to come out, Although I am now an office worker, Not being able to devote as much time to the game as before But just like the first time I came into contact with this game, Still very much looking forward to the future development of GD!

Really happy with how this video came out, this was really fun to work on! :D

I'm happy I joined the game soon enough to know who Cody is

If this comment gets 500 replies I will release a GAMEPLAY CHALLENGE video next week!

2:15 really got me

Mat mart you are one of the most creative RU-vidrs. I don’t know why you’re so small. I’ve been watching you for months now, and I hope you can keep this creativity!

wow... thanks for existing! i actually love this games lore since people from the outside don't know about it existing. it's so faschinating. i thought i knew almost everything that has happened since 1.4 but the TeamHax merge thing... i always wondered how "TeamHax" has old comments on so many levels xdd thanks for making me wiser, absolutely gold video

I love these documentary style videos , since I'm relatively new it's always interesting to see this game's history Keyword : Relative.

I love these documentaries! I learn so much from these

The amount of work he's put into making these is insane Keep up the good work!

Can you make a documentary on game levels in the future (master game, dim, altergames, etc...) there's hundreds nowadays and it would be cool seeing a video appreciating them.

"Cody will always be king in our hearts" - Somebody out there, 2k23

Your videos really make me think about playing Geometry Dash again and maybe making some levels like it's 2014 ^^ Regardless, I really enjoyed hearing about these levels again.

pretty neat video, neat to see recognition of his latest account, wish more people knew that he is actually a pretty decent player

Love the video! You really worked hard for it once again! Hope you get 100k subs soon!

amazing vid and editing keep it up!

when i was grinding map packs his levels stuck out the most for me and everytime i saw [x number] followed by a robtop level name i got hyped, because cody's levels were pretty much the only ones that didnt have horrible and annoying gameplay and were actually fun to play

1:39 -Nostalgia Kicks in- -Relaxing music- Y E S .

Great editing man. i enjoyed the video!

Cody never dies.

editing is so smooth

Man your getting subs quick! I remeber seeing you at 40k subs

This video showed me why there were level without any name and just a dash. Thank you for this amazing video.

Robtop just loves classic style levels that don't have overwhelming decorations but good gameplay.

This is such a good vid!

8:49 I guess he’s never coming back

im impressed that u made geometry dash sound so entertaining it was a awesome video

BROOOOO I DID NOT KNOW THAT THE USER WAS UNREGISTERED, I LEARNED A LOT FROM THIS VIDEO, GREAT JOB

I love this documentary videos!! They are so interesting!

WTF . I thought Cody was so gangster but no one cared when i told them. Finally someone cares

I swear story about a single pixel in Geometry Dash, and it’ll be one of the best stories

Really like the vid ive played gd like uhh almost 2 months nice channel i did not know it until the video about zobros came in recommendation showed it

Your editing Has really improved Or maybe im trippin idk 👍

My story: Chapter 1: the empty spot. When geometry dash on the App Store it was number 1 above games like: candy crush saga, bad piggies and more! Rob never forgot to add a “Editor Button”. People weren’t sure how to build so some were bad but they were put as good. After that 1.3 released and it introduced The leaderboard. Basically if Robtop rates your level it would have stars and a difficulty. Then players would beat rated levels for stars. The amount of rated levels weren’t so many because they need to decorate it and have a chance that Robtop rates it. The rated levels make you go up on the leaderboard. At the top of the leaderboard was the king… called Cody. A middle schooler that made a level that had a downfall. People beat him after he was the top tho. So he needed to show them he was the king. The other people had better levels than him so he needed to make better levels than those levels. The others kept making levels that got rated and viewed. One person called jax was Better than the other ones on the leaderboard. He was famous by making a level called “auto play area”. A level that got rated as “Auto” thousands of people found the level and got 1 star for beating the level. It was the most viewed level by the time he released 1.6 players were making more levels at that time to be famous. Most of Cody’s levels were seemed as normal. They were fine until. One of Cody’s BEST levels that Cody released in: 9 years ago. Chapter 2: “level easy” by Cody Level easy is a nine year old level “right now” made by the one and only “Cody” it looks boring and normal “your average 3 star” well “Thats what you think” well Rob saw this level and probably said “ooh I should rate this”. Then 1.6 released. So this is 1.6 Cody. The update introduced “Map Packs” if you beat all 3 levels you can click a checkmark. That gets you “the amount of stars the difficulty picture has and 1 gold coin”. Beat 5 and you unlock a ship. Beat 10 and your trail can be rainbow and make your Icon have glow around it. It was really cool when it was made then. The first level in the first pack is “witch it is now the second with level easy” the first pack had: level easy by Cody. Nobody knows why it was chosen by Robtop chose it. I guess it’s a beginner pack kind of level. It kind of goes back to the first level “stereo madness”. Level easy does not have a goofy name like: red yahooey, 🎵don’t stop believin🎵. Level easy is not like your average rated levels. There was no reason for the beggining pack with level easy in it. But it is a kind of beginning level tho. Now that level easy is in the map packs. The views of level easy were insane… it beat level easy by jax (remember jax?) in views… “1M” “5M” “10M” views. Gd got more and more views. As it kept getting views Gd is so popular by then. It seemed like Cody was the king by then. His other levels got in other map packs by his king building. If you played Gd by then. You will know who he is. His level easy, was so viewed almost every Gd player knew it. This was when Cody banned jax from the throne and Cody took his spot. He was known as the “King of Geometry dash”. But then he had a challenger. Apon the update of 2.0. The beginner pack was no longer the first pack. Instead it was the “alpha pack” lead by “sonar” sonar was stared by “minesap” but it was Abandoned. Apon someone saw it and continued it it was continued by… “Jerkrat” he finished it and uploaded it on his Gd account. The level combined with the song. It represents the first level “stereo madness”. Sonar was finished to takeover level easy in views. And then it was the most viewed level. Although. Cody must of not cared about it. Then Cody simply haven’t played Gd since the release of 13 TOE. Witch was uploaded all the way back in 1.7. Where jax was probably still on top. He might not of realised he was the king. “20M” “30M” views level easy had. Cody was known by everybody. Witch was mysterious. Nobody knew if he would return. Eventually 2.1 came out (the update I started playing in) the new features were the “Gauntlets” they are modern versions of map packs. The first level of the first gauntlet was “outerspace” by nickI1202. A interesting bossfight level. Nobody knows why it was chose because fires can’t start in space. He must of had a jackpot. Now 2 levels were fairly famous and having a race to “who can have the most views?” You think this is where the downfall of Cody happens. But the king would be destroyed by something. Chapter 3: the fall of the king. Cody hadn’t played in so long. So he never registered his account. By this time the views of Gd went up. So the players were Gold registered users. While Cody was still green unregistered user. This was a HUGE problem. Because of an exploit that would be made by TeamHax. They were a group that make hacks/cheats. Witch makes the average player to noclip, speed down levels And more! Although there is something MUCH WORSE than that! One of the team hax members found an exploit that could DESTROY geometry dash. The members warned Robtop for game issues. However. A member of TeamHax found somthing called “sql injection exploit” a member of TeamHax found out you could log in to somebody’s account by doing their username and typing the password for any account. All the around logins and passwords are stored in a data base. And the members can log in to any account. While this hack had been used onto update and DELETE levels. User IDs were saw by the TeamHax. Also there is a merging account exploit. To combine any account. As long as you knew their passwords. A member did an Unthinkable thing… they took EVERY SINGLE account ID and MERGED it into the TeamHax account. This goes back To Cody. Whose account was DELETED. The script of old users that are green were. Also DELETED. If a green user was unfortunate their level would have been made by: - . This BROKE the Gd servers. Most comments and most levels were. Never found. Popular levels “deleted…” entire Once famous accounts are set by “TeamHax” Cody was unlucky and got his account deleted. Although…. There is a weird registered account called “IamCody” during the merge of accounts. TeamHax stole 3 of Cody’s levels and transferred them to that account. Today it’s unknown who made the account. Along with the three levels. And Cody’s levels were no longer his. Also level easy was no longer his. If the players did not read the description they wouldn’t know who it was by. Soon later level easy was no longer the most liked level. Instead it was “retray” by: DiMaViKuLov26. After that somthing surprising would happen. THE KING RETURNS! Chapter 4: The Comeback of the king On the 13th of march 2020 a Gd player made a video of the showcase of misanthrope and for 1 second one part said “Cody” and the truth is Mind-Exploding. Cody was still playing GD This whole time!!! He made a mobile account called “Cody 2” for years he made maps like “14 electrodynamix”. And (drumroll) “LEVEL EASY 2!”. But nobody cared bout it because it was made on “Cody 2” an account that people said “is this really Cody? Why isn’t he registered yet?” And “fake?” They thought he was a trick for account views. After failing to get a level rated. Cody changed his name to “GGininDER” out of his levels he only had 1 featured level. Only “summer breeze” had a rate. It only had fews of thousands of views tho. The king of Gd felt like half of his “GGininDER”. Over the Time sonar grew its views finally on the 21st of 2021. Sonar would take over level easy. Ending the 7 year battle. Jerkrat was happy that he was the third known creator in the game. Now level easy is the 5th place. Sonar is 2nd and outerspace is 1st. So jax was 3rd and Cody is unknown. Can we say it’s done? NO. Not yet. It seems Cody the king. “WILL RETURN!” When 2.2 Gd comes out. Who knows. He might or not. ❤️Cody

Love this vid one of my favourite vids ever pls keep uploading

it certainly isn't spaceuk haha!

Very well structured, and researched video! I have to add, that Cody didn't register an account, because in 13 ToE's description he said he got a new phone, which meant he had all his levels and data on the old phone, and this was at the time when there was no account system. And to be honest I didn't know he made another a new account with a new name, since I haven't heard much about him since my early days :p

Mat mart always succeed no fails

THE DONT STOP BELIEVIN PART GOT ME ON THE FLOOR

Love ur vids

I knew a kid in Middleschool who could beat every single level, in every single game, first try, without any prior practice, like it's nothing.. He's the king in my mind.

1:22 website?

are you using filmora? cuz if so how do you make the animations keep like the in animation and not the out animation

We need a part 2

MatMart's ability to sing is better than any other singer combined

I had no idea Cody kept creating on different accounts! Good video

brooooo i love the fact you used zelda breath of the wild music at the start

Love zelda shrine song in the background

FNAF 3 SOUNDS

common video with jojo music W

That team hax incident was crazy I was wondering why levels were made by-

new vid = happines

this is more real than reality itself

nice video

6:47 “yes, DASH-“ *insert dash by MDK for no reason*

What is the sound for the intro of "fall of the king"?

Who was the King? Me obviously

Honestly, I really don't understand why you decided to glorify a pretty random creator who happened to win Robtop's map pack jackpot the ''King'' of Geometry dash, especially when players like Michigun (Both a notorious part of the community, phenomenal player and a good builder) and Funnygame (An extraordinarily creative builder who's made many for its time masterpieces) existed. [Okay after fully watching the video entirely I kind of understand, having the most popular level of all time for a few years is quite an impressive feat, but the creator behind this notorious level... Well it seems like he didn't even put much importance to the fact that he held an insane achievement like that. It's more of a ''Reign of Level Easy'' than a ''Reign of Cody,'' honestly.

The botw music at the start of the video is fire

Nice video

I watch your vids anyway so I'm finally subscribing

Wow... That was unexpected. I love it

All the background music and sound effects are nostalgia fuel

The real king here is MatMart for making this video

Cody is coming to town

Imagine this was just a video sponsored by cody that would had been a huge plot twist

8:27 "They were probably bad" him creating a level called Bloody Lake

Great video

You should talk about sary next

"DOOOOONT START. BELIEVING" was the funniest scene

I actually remember when Cody uploaded 13 ToE , I played it just after it got rated I think

What’s the auto level at 0:00

2:36 #1 in MUSIC???

We need a full version of you singing dont stop believing

This is so good

In my eyes, Michigun is the true champ. R.I.P

The amount of wiggle in this is insane.

*the thumbnail of the video is just the most recognizable geometry dash avatar looking soulless*

When geometry dash 2.2 will come out all of the legend players like Cody who quit or were waiting for 2.2 will come back

it's wierd for you to add a minecraft music as a backround of a gd level, yet respected because robtop made a few minecraft references in gd

The return of king what song is it cus i wanna know it is fire 7:12

That’s better than a movie trailer tbh

4:20 the fate which still remains

I coincidentally passed GGininDER in the stars leaderboard yesterday LMAO

Right after chaos was inevitable. There was an ad looks like chaos is inevitable

The king was named Michigun cause he played demons in ipad❤/\/\/\❤️ r.I.p ):

when is level hard comming out though

bro had the shrine music in the beginning 🛹

Oh imma watch this after exams

Good choice of background music (jojo reference)

Cody pls comeback 😭😭

1:38 Nice moog city

Can’t wait for the king to return

i love the music

These are the best documentaries I've ever seen of GD, I honestly like this video bc one reason... but it's slightly embarrassing for me It has songs from Jojo, and I've been a fan of the anime, e

Man being on the top of the leaderboard was fun and oh like that it gets talked about

4:13 amazing

Well... its a whole different story because it was actually Riot by Riot veriffying Bloodbath

I know it’s been 2 years but …. Rip Michigun, the triple spike legend. 1996-2021

Lets go new gd youtuber. Ez sub
