    87:12:39 the best part where gd cologne finally finishes talking about the first frame of the level
  • 33:45 Not only does Dash NOT have a UFO part, but it doesn’t even have a dual part! Even if you factor in the 3 spinoff games, there is NO single level that uses the Dual portal since it was introduced in Hexagon Force. In fact the dual portal only shows up in 3 levels in the ENTIRETY of the official and spinoff games where the dual portal shows up, and only ONE level in which it is used in an interesting way. Something tells me that Mulpan was behind this. The dual portal is even less used than the UFO portal.

    That camera work on your fix for the tower was actually pretty good! I like the tilt at the part before the wave mode portal. It felt like some sort of pulse.😄

    Colon is like that one literature teacher that over analyses literally everything, but if you asked the creator, they'd just say they thought it was cool.
  • Colon: Says "Thats Dash and all I have to say about it." Also Colon: keeps yapping for 3 more minutes.

    Quick thing: with the ball part after the spider you CAN actually miss the portal in 2 ways, it’s just hard to time and I got it on my first try of it, and was super confused. 1) you stay as a ball and get sent at Mach 10 into your death 2) you get turned into a cube… and also get sent to your death at Mach 10

    I was NOT expecting that Dash spider in The Challenge

    8:06 feels like that scene in a movie where a character is having a nightmare where their worst fear keeps appearing before them
  • i love all the parts of dash, so i dont really agree with you on most of this, but i can definitely agree with you on those last 2 coins. the 2nd coin just cant be found for a select few, and that really isnt THAT much of a problem, but it's still an easy fix. the 3rd coin is just obviously stupid though. the first coin i loved because it was sorta like a puzzle. i sat in practice mode to try and figure out how to get that, and i actually never saw the skeleton's eyes turn green, i saw those squares right above the coin. it felt really nice to figure it out, and now i guess it really isnt too interesting, but i still loved it. i feel like a main part of geometry dash is just memory, that is what practice mode is for, and then you put your skills and knowledge to the test in normal mode, so i dont really see a problem with there being no indicators as to like what portals would change or if you will go sideways on a wall, like most of those can just be memorized super easily.
  • @KingVR_7
    There is one more hint for the first coin, in the first part before you go into the spider there is a sign pointing right,when you pass it shows a green skull indicating that you have to click on the last block on the block part
  • @AarxyGD
    No way Colon made a video dedicated to the first spider part in Dash how cool!

    To me, Dash isn’t just a level, it’s Robtop’s statement. It’s him realizing that in between 6 years people have took the same game and advanced it way beyond what he ever could. If it feels like he’s throwing everything at the wall, it’s because he is, and it’s him saying “here’s a whole ton of things you can do now, go nuts.” And when the level says “Geometry Dash” it’s his “yeah, this is the new norm” moment. It’s him going “This is Geometry Dash now, and it’s wild. Enjoy it.” And thank you for coming to my TED talk.
  • No one talking about the chapters like "class dismissed" and "TTTTTTHHHHHHHEEEEEE SSPPPPIIIIIDDDDEEERRR part" Btw I love your edited dash level, it's unbelievably good. Its kinda tricky for a mobile noob like me tho. But it's probably because I have a skill issue like you mentioned. Anyway keep up the good work :)
  • @toxdaz
    I love how rob saw your video on how to fix the subzero coins and went ahead to do this.
  • @ElijahTNHK
    One thing I’m sure of about Dash: it expects you to have played custom levels before, not just only official levels. That’s how I feel Dash was designed.
  • @Goom82
    I swear next he’s gonna make an two hour long video about the fact that it doesn’t say “2.2 is coming october” after the bossfight in the sewers
