The Geometry Dash Lite was updated to 2.21 as a beta version of the upcoming update labeled "2.2". The iOS version was released on 27 May 2022 in order to fix the iOS 15 issues, before the Android version was released on June 9 2022. Could you put this development? ^[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Clustyalt (talk • contribs) 23:54, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

Geometry Dash Lite as of July 2022 has 16 levels, not 15. It has 16 since the update 2.213. Can you check them on Google Play and App Store? Clustyalt (talk) 14:27, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

In the 2.2 section of the article, the information is a little out-dated, as there have been more information released about 2.2 by RobTop, on 3rd-party-platforms, like Twitter and Discord. Information like that should be revealed too on this article. AhmedKoT (talk) 09:27, 9 August 2022 (UTC)

Geometry Dash Meltdown, World and Subzero are all different games. So it would be less confusing if Geometry Dash was split into Geometry Dash (Game), Geometry Dash Meltdown, Geometry Dash World and Geometry Dash Subzero. Signed, MinecraftNerd12341234 01:44, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

@HurricaneDeci I recently reverted a sequence of edits that added content including a list of all the levels across all the Geometry Dash games. The basis for this decision comes from these edits, similar reversions that were seemingly accepted over a year ago (similar content had not been added again until just recently). If you have a reason for including this information in an encyclopedia, it would be beneficial to explain it. Twotwice^talk 19:22, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

@Twotwice I added many details about the game as well as the table, and I figured the table would be a good idea because it lists the levels of the game. If you want me to, I can remove it. HurricaneDeci^talk19:47, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

The following sentence is convoluted and needs better structuring:

“Notably, if the player crashes into an obstacle, the level restarts from the beginning, an exception being in practice mode, where the user may place checkpoints to survey or practice a level without officially completing it.”

I suggest: “If the player crashes into an obstacle, the level restarts from the beginning. However, in practice mode, the player may place checkpoints to survey or practice a level without officially completing it.” Spinespine (talk) 17:40, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

Actually, for the practice mode section, I think the fact that you can continue from the next checkpoint should be added.

2nd Paragraph, Last sentence. Needs reworked into 2 separate sentences. Current wording makes it sound like you can obtain secret coins and user coins through chests, although you cannot. Mana orbs are also the only (currently) in-game currency. You can also obtain secret coins through completing a map pack.

My reworking: You can obtain the game's in-game currency, mana orbs, through chests, as well as diamonds and Shards of Power. In official levels, you can obtain secret coins, another method of collecting these being map packs, which reward the player with some with every pack completed. User coins are the user level versions of secret coins. They can either be bronze (these ones don't count towards player total [also known as "Unverified"] ) or silver (counts towards your player total [also known as "Verified"] )

On the first sentence of paragraph 3, "Topala released a sneak peek video of 2.2, the first major update since 2017," could be misinterpreted as 2.2 being the first major update released since 2017. 74.139.252.103 (talk) 04:15, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

I don't think that is a misinterpretation. That's exactly what it says. Do you have a counter claim or source that contradicts? -- ferret (talk) 17:19, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Maybe they're talking about how it sounds like it's the only major update being made for the game, instead of just being the first big update in a while since update 2.1 released. BucketHeadKing (talk) 15:57, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

I don't see how it suggests that it was the only major update or final major update at all. It does not appear that 2.2 has released yet either, and there's no sourcing of other "major updates". -- ferret (talk) 16:25, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

I know there isn't any sources, but this DOES actually exist. Would a video of gameplay prove this? Signed, MinecraftNerd12341234 01:44, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

@Xan747 Would citing the game itself be a possiblity? Primary sources are excellent for this kind of coverage gap. In this case, simply stating a level's existence does not require original research. Ca ^{talk to me!} 16:27, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

@Ca, @MinecraftNerd12341234; the Video games section of WikiProject Video games/Sources says, In articles about video games, citing the game itself is often attractive. Wikipedia favours secondary sources, and the use of primary sources should be minimised. Games are primary sources in articles about themselves. Whether it is good to use them as a source varies by perspective, subject and game. For a reader, it is usually very hard to use a video game to check facts. Provide transcripts wherever possible, and enable readers to check the facts themselves by noting which area, level or episode is cited. Using the later levels of games with a linear level progression as sources (without transcripts) should be avoided. The same applies to bonus levels or easter eggs.

But what is a transcript? How do you get one and cite it? I suggest you guys check with the editors over at WikiProject Video games and find out how to properly use the game itself as a primary source. Feel free to ping me back once they've given you some guidance. Thanks, Xan747 (talk) 19:20, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

Wow, this has gotten very complicated for something really insignificant. It's still well known within the Geometry Dash community, but I'll see if there's any way to get "transcripts". Signed, MinecraftNerd12341234 23:20, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

It does seem a small thing but I'm a stickler for rules. Do let me know what you find out.

NOTE: I would never suggest that as you are an autoconfirmed user that you could simply edit the article yourself. Xan747 (talk) 23:46, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

Can I just upload a video where I show the level and how to access it? It is the simplest way, and to be honest, I am not that good at finding citations. I mostly read, and I thought I'd add some information to one of the games I'm intrested in. But I do understand there are rules to follow, and that is pretty respectable. The problem is, when you try to add something obscure, you have to make your own source. Signed, MinecraftNerd12341234 00:16, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

that violates our policy on original research. ltbdl (talk) 00:25, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

Ok, you win. Signed, MinecraftNerd12341234 00:39, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

@MinecraftNerd12341234, as Itbdl says it sounds like wp:or to do that, yet the passage I quoted still suggests that the game itself can be a usable primary source.

Your best option is to check with the video game project folks and learn how to do it right. Then you'll know for other articles you might want to edit. Xan747 (talk) 00:38, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

The problem is RobTop (The developer) never explicitly mentioned it, as it is meant to be a secret. But I'll check out "the video game project folks". Signed, MinecraftNerd12341234 00:40, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

Hey guys, Bardcodc here.

I was wondering if we should add a controversy segment, due to how many types of controversy have occured. First there was a fan-made level to the role-playing game "God Eater" by a player named "knobbelboy", who then stole some art from the actual game. The creators of "God Eater" contacted him saying "Oh nO, yOu DiDn'T aSk FoR oUr OpInIoN, nOw Ya CaN't HaVe It". Geometry Dash almost got sued. Then there was the level "Woodkid" by a guy named "Jakers", who stole from the band with the song "Run, Boy, Run". There were the days of 1.9 in 2015, when people uploaded songs onto Newgrounds for it to be on Geometry Dash. There's 2.2, where people keep on making game recreations. Just wondering. - Barcodc (talk) 17:16, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

If you can find reliable sources that are relevant for a section on copyright-related controversies, then it could be included. However, I do not see any such sources, so it might not be significant enough to include. Twotwice^talk 17:26, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

This article claims that Geometry Dash 2.2 was released on December 20th of 2023, but it was actually released on December 19th of 2023. This YouTube video is a video uploaded by the developer of the game, announcing that Geometry Dash 2.2 is now available. The upload date of the video is December 19th of 2023. This article should be updated to contain the proper release date, which is December 19th of 2023.

I disagree with JTP's reply, it's fairly clear what changed you wanted to be made. Still not going to open this because the 4 tower levels are included in that count. To quote the lead:

Geometry Dash consists of 26 full-length levels made by its developer; 22 are auto-scrolling, and 4 are 'platformer' levels.

Geometry Dash seems to be a video game engine, since it is possible to make fully-fledged video games using the game's platformer mode, wide range of triggers, and more. In fact, it seems like that has already happened, with the level Quarion by the user Zejoant. Should I add the category "Video game engines" to this page?

Currently, the article does not mention the common abbreviations ‘GD’ or ‘GMD’ anywhere. Within the community, the game is rarely referred to by its full name; instead, the acronyms ‘GD’ or ‘GMD’ are predominantly used. I propose adjusting the opening sentence to read: ‘Geometry Dash (also known as GD or GMD) is a side-scrolling music platforming game series…’ This would better reflect common usage and improve accessibility for readers familiar with the game’s abbreviations.

So I've been thinking of making a custom level for a gameplay demonstration. To not violate any copyright, these requirements will be met:

- The level will only use assets that are simplistic enough to not pass threshold of originality (like blocks and orbs) and are therefore in public domain. Same rule applies for the player icons.

- Music is going to be from Newgrounds with either CC-BY or CC-BY-SA license.

- Level itself will be licensed under CC-BY by its creator (me).

Since gameplay mechanics can't be copyrighted, this should technically work. Did I miss something? Dabmasterars (talk) 13:17, 8 April 2025 (UTC)

In the "the game compromises 26 full-length levels" part, it actually says there are 21 levels and 4 platformer levels. The 2.2 update added a new level, so it's currently 22 autoscrolling levels and 4 platformer levels. Please fix this. Izaanian (talk) 15:34, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

I'm starting to get frustrated with the constant changing of the dates in the Post-release section. I've reverted stuff twice now but it keeps getting changed. I am reporting the dates and information given in [5] although multiple people have gone against this, adding stuff that is not in the source. I do not know where they are getting this from, but clearly some sort of consensus needs to be reached here unless we want to have an edit war. I will help try to find more sources for this information but unfortunately that info is really sparce and often not mentioned in reliable sources. If you can provide sources, we can discuss them here. If not, do not edit the article please. ZKevinTheCat (talk) 19:53, 6 August 2025 (UTC)

1.1 released in September 2013, and that is the general consensus among the results of a Google search for the update's release date. In fact, the only place that used October 2013 as the update's release date is Version Museum, which probably isn't reliable given that it got all its images from the game's Fandom wiki.

No reliable source gives 1.1's release date as October 2013, and thus the article should not use October 2013 as the release date of the update BombCraft8 ^{(talk) (contributions)} 19:17, 8 August 2025 (UTC)

@ZKevinTheCat I also want to say that the article shouldn't say four more updates released in 2013. Searching the browser, you can see that update 1.5 released in January 2014, not in December 2013. Version Museum is the only source that provides this wrong information and is not reliable. Reichtek (talk) 10:13, 9 August 2025 (UTC)

Oh also another thing is that the article says that the demon difficiulty was introduced in update 1.5, when it was actually released in 1.3. Reichtek (talk) 10:15, 9 August 2025 (UTC)

I am of the opinion that we should not be including a history of versions at all; most updates noted there don't seem to be notable enough to have received reliable third-party reporting (see WP:NOTCHANGELOG). There does not seem to be a consensus that the Version Museum source used for much of this section is reliable. Twotwice^talk 16:36, 9 August 2025 (UTC)

I think I'm forced to agree here. I was able to remove that source from a few places but was unable to find a replacement in others. These might have to be removed too. I was however also able to find a source for the "rated" stuff in the Gameplay section. ZKevinTheCat (talk) 21:10, 9 August 2025 (UTC)

If possible, we can add the "Modding" content, which is about modding GD via Geode, fangames, and probably a list of in-game moderators, both level and elder. Izaanian (talk) 08:40, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

In-game moderator list feels like a case of WP:NOTDB to me. It's changing constantly and not especially relevant to GD's notability. As for modding, unless there's specific sources highlighting GD's modding as being unique in some way, I'm not sure it's a worthy inclusion either. Corsaka (talk) 09:09, 18 August 2025 (UTC)

Gonna elaborate on the denomdifficulties with the easy demon,medium demons,hard demons,insane demons and extreme demons. I will also remove the word “traditional ” before platformers as platformers are not traditional, they were added 3 years ago IceCreamToaster (talk) 05:55, 29 August 2025 (UTC)

I mean 2 IceCreamToaster (talk) 05:56, 29 August 2025 (UTC)

The use if the word 'traditional' in this context doesn't mean 'original'. It's meant in the sense that platformer levels in Geometry Dash are more akin to the traditional platformer levels seen in other games. As for the difficulties, I'm not sure what else there is to elaborate on. Listing them is enough in my opinion. There really isn't any more nuance.
