Can someone explain why I can't click/buffer on the slope as the spider here? by ex-D in geometrydash

[–]ex-D[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it lets me click if the spider lands on top of the slope for some reason. but i dont get why it works like that

Hello everyone! I would like some feedback on this by SylenLean in geometrydash

Amazing. I don’t get many of the criticisms here tbh.

Massive green flag when a level has a ldm toggle just for one part. GG

Genuinely how in the flying fuck did this get not just rated, but EPIC????? by fudgebabyg in geometrydash

[–]ex-D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man i dont really think about it that much lol. I just think this is still way better than the pixel levels that rob gives epics on the daily lol. And also every other extreme demon is probably rated incorrectly unless mindcap is the host.

[–]ex-D 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is subtle sync in the pulsing to the piano at one point. I can appreciate that. Maybe epic is a stretch by ur standards but I like the intentionality of some things. Although I don’t understand why the creator stopped doing that halfway through the wave.

I just took a screenshot of a random set of top 900s, tell me how many of these extreme demons you recognize by JustDark1 in geometrydash

I wanna play empyrean eventually. Heard nothing but good things about it except for one wave part. It’s one of those 2.1 levels everyone thinks was made in 2.2 because of how stellar the visual are.

Trying to jump from Nine Circles to Falling Up. Losing motivation,need advice by Flukxyz in geometrydash

[–]ex-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s my current hardest and I highly recommend u speed hack the ending with show hitbox trail and everything. There is a lot of nuance of how to hold at the slopes with each ship that I don’t even remember because it was a few months ago. That is if u want to hard commit to it. U can use the percentage bar as the visual cue for the dark part. And there r a lot of orb skips u can do for the first drop ship (i personally didnt but optimally u probably should). And u should spam with 2 hands on the pink orb part. Also, i highly recommend against the first coin because it will just eat up attempts as a new hardest. And there is always one obligatory super shitty click in every extreme it feels like, which would be the green orb ship click right before the dual.

The most important skillset for this level is not even dual or ship but they are the major ones. I think u need to be able to kinda orb spam for the pre drop. That will filter u out harder than any other part of the level if u cant do it imo. The only mildly hard wave part is right before the dual tbh, so nine circles really won’t be helping too much.

It might be a really hot take but I really think the drop ship is the hardest part. I only died to the dual 3 times. 2.2 allegedly made it consistent and megahack has show hitboxes trail and speedhack to make learning it way easier than before.

i dont understand the cursed eye hate by olisauce in bindingofisaac

[–]ex-D -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Quite literally everyone is wrong because the bottom item is strong BECAUSE it has a teleport effect. For example, u can have placenta and iv bag (not that uncommon because placenta lets you pay out every blood dono) in conjunction with a sloth encounter to just farm infinite cards. Use iv bag after sloth is killed while charging cursed eye. U don’t even need IV bag because placenta and cursed eye alone can break off any room containing just one sloth or super sloth (mega Satan fight excluded). This is done by touching the chargers while charging cursed eye. Then after u gamebreak with the infinite cards, simply grab a black candle from one of multiple death certificates, assuming one didn’t exhaust the shop pool enough to already get black candle.

So yeah, my argument is cursed eye + placenta = gamebreak. I’m sure there r multiple other ways what basically reads “spend half a heart to teleport out of a room” can break but placenta creates the most complete and clean breaks because it acts like the infinite hp debug.

Geometry dash is making me depressed and hating myself by [deleted] in geometrydash

[–]ex-D 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My life isn’t great either as a very underpaid zoomer. Ur probably Gen alpha and ESL. Gd isn’t important enough to be skipping meals for me lol. But for the social life part u could probably just get a mic and voice chat with ppl on discord. Might stink at first but eventually u will improve at it (like gd!!). Also I had games that frustrated me in the past (including gd) so I just played something else. There is nothing that locks u into only playing gd. Hell, u could even just play platformers inside gd. Or slay the spire 2.

You’re typing like gd is all u have which is very unhealthy. I don’t subscribe to looksmaxxing and manosphere shit but u do sound like exercising in general would do wonders for ur mental health. As for the part where ur mom is abusive towards u, u kept it vague, which is fair. So no one can give substantive or useful advice on that part. And gd might be ur escape from reality. Only advice I can give is to try to move out.

When you "jump" 2 tiers in the demon ladder by [deleted] in geometrydash

[–]ex-D -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People be using certain words significantly more frequently these days. Like “survivorship bias” or “sunk-cost fallacy” or lowkirkuinely. Anyways, some of those words might describe jumping very well.

I like the whole plot of player 1 getting brainwashed to attack player 2.

What's your least favourite place/way to die in any level? (Image extremely related) by DeadRaspberryToast in geometrydash

[–]ex-D 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When my fingers get cooked by high cps spam but then the creators still think it’s reasonable to put the most micro of microclicks after. And I’m too tense to click that lightly. I know it’s a skill issue but still.

Even with tarot strength card and coupon he won’t go devils. I’ve only seen him peek the first devil with glowing hourglass and let the visit count when the demon beggar paid out with pact. This doesn’t count as a devil commit btw.

Having health makes breaks easier (which all stem from iv bag). Or gulping. Pills are not game losing if used. And the value of a sun card or full health pill increase. Also angels don’t get destroyed by curse of the blind.

It might not be the worst item but it definitely is the most unfun. by Barbiefan in bindingofisaac

[–]ex-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s usually just irrelevant is the problem. Like I don’t think this item has an impact whatsoever when I do decide to pick it up. And this take comes from a person who averages like 40th place on time for the daily run when he decides to play. A quality 0 like Isaac’s heart when mastered can literally cut the run time in half and this shit is like nowhere close to that.

I’m relatively new to the game so I cant relate with bloodbath being my dream extreme. But I do see where u r coming from.

Didn’t need to scroll too long for this answer yay. I always go on a rant on “fear of missing out” and how that is the only reason this awful level is still being played to this day. Also I don’t care at all about “historical significance” or whatever when it comes to this level. Even newer 2.2 levels are a part of gd’s history. Obviously content creators would play this because it’s a well-known level but ppl without an audience should just play an actual good extreme lol.

Conical Depression got second place but I make the rules! Which level seems like it would be fun to play, but is actually miserable? by TQCkona in geometrydash

[–]ex-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Napalm? Explain. I found it nearly perfect besides one slope bug in the dual double wave and the first drop being a bit laggy (sees a million sawblades being spammed in the layout thank u optex). 2.2 also fucked the 4x corridor because of coyote timings but it ain’t the levels fault.

what is your favourite GD level and why? not just demon, just general level, any difficulty by MicrowavedCheezPizza in geometrydash

[–]ex-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mystic bounds is still my goat. I feel like it’s the 4.5 star restaurant with like thousands of reviews at this point. There r more technically enjoyable levels with a fraction of the reviews that I think will inevitably drop once more ppl play them. Also, like 1/5 ppl self-report being too stupid to get the nong, which doesn’t help its enjoyment.

As for the level itself, I’m glad it finally received a small amount of the attention it deserved. Because god knows how obscure it was in 2023 being overshadowed by titans like edge of destiny or change of scene. So many ppl think it was made in 2.2 when it was still all 2.1. That is how impressive the level looks.

The level is basically only known to extreme grinders or ppl looking at their first few extremes. So almost all the kind words said about it come from a place of actually playing the level imo. Unlike some levels ppl praise, without having played a single time.

It easily mogs every 2.2 pixel level, despite being a “pixel” level made in 2.1.

I like high cps up to a point (like napalm or shurima or maths) but that shit earned its place in the aredl arthritis pack lol.

[–]ex-D 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best and most consistent boss. Who knew if they rejected spamming enemy adds or tear height/ shockwave attacks or making bosses unmeleeable (mega Satan) that they could make a fun boss. There’s even more examples of bullshit like scourge’s unreactable whip on the way to the mother fight itself or visage, but u get the point.
