In this video I try my best to go over how my April Fools video was made, and all the modding/editing/trickery that went on behind the scenes. The video was easily one of my favorite YT projects of all time and I'm more than happy to take some time and talk about how it was made over the course of a few weeks.

I honestly am impressed about how much work the team did just to troll us, and we fell for it too.

[@nerdporkspass1m1st78]

Dude, my mind is spinning at how much effort went on behind the scenes. I thought PoweredbyPie was just a really good extreme demon slayer from China-I didn't know he could _code._ I also didn't know LoafeeBuns could help you with things like the gradient-I thought she just made fanart for you in the past. Man, I feel sorta jealous, but more of which bewildered at how much I didn't _know._ Like I thought I knew so much already, but through the fact that you could mod the game _yourself_ and did so much, I mean-you showed me I know nothing lmao. You live a crazy, exciting life. That's insane, I hope you continue with this energy.

[@Galactum]

ok honestly it's wild how you actually coded all this instead of just editing the video in post

[@venturer9400]

Watching this and some other videos related to the game after not being actively involved with GD for some 5 years is so weird honestly. "Probably no one remembers TriAxis and Etzer" bruh they're one of the most iconic names for me. Then again if I took a look at the featured levels, I probably would have to scroll through several pages to find a familiar name. Funnily enough, the reason why I played quite a bit of GD in the last month or so was to beat a bunch of map packs, I had 104 secret coins and one of my major goals was to hit 120 so I could unlock the winged UFO, probably my favorite icon in the game. So yeah, I did that so I have one less regret about the things I didn't do in the game. Kinda glad to see it still alive, even if it's almost unrecognisable to me at this point. Excellent video by the way, I wouldn't have dreamed of seeing something as elaborate as this one day back when I watched these kinds of videos.

[@Dexzler]

TriAxis and Etzer are iconic names to me too (seriously)

[@ahmed4363]

I think its time to come back, y'know... 2.2 released...

[@venturer9400]

@@ahmed4363 Oh, I have! Again, I'm a nostalgic so I mostly play older levels, but that's just another way in which the game appeals to a wide audience. But the stuff 2.2 has brought has been truly amazing and transformative.

hey colon! i have a quick question, will you guys be releasing all of this for us to go through ourselves? i’d think it would be really cool! if you can’t release everything to do with gd, you should release the pokémon rom hack!

Didn't notice robtop's rating on my original viewing. Nice

Etzer blew up during early 2.1 I think. That was when he did the "how to make a featured level" so it isn't really a 1.9 name

[@yebeka5611]

thats really not true, etzer was a popular 1.9 creator and a popular 2.0 youtuber and he really didnt do anything during 2.1

[@cricrdblu2317_2nd]

angry scratch was actually used if you pressed versus mode for some times

[@Pink-og8db]

this proves that robtop doesn't need to take so long to make updates

[@therealilikecats]

New version: Go to Dash, and at the part where you hit the blocks to avoid getting spiked, hit the yellow blocks and the last bad block. Beat the level, and you will have 150 coins!

[@HelloThere51423]

you can get the meltdown icons by saving account data in meltdown and loading into full ver. works for all official spinoffs

[@billbobs678]

But there's a bug so it doesn't work. It might be fixed in 2.2 but this vid was posted before it

Click is a 2006 American comedy film[1] directed by Frank Coraci, written by Steve Koren and Mark O'Keefe, and produced by Adam Sandler, who also stars. The story is based on "The Magic Thread", a folk tale included in The Book of Virtues. Sandler plays Michael Newman, a workaholic family man who acquires a magical universal remote that enables him to control reality. The film co-stars Kate Beckinsale as his wife Donna and Christopher Walken as Morty, the eccentric stranger who gives Michael the remote. Filming began in late 2005 and was finished by early 2006. Sony Pictures Releasing released Click in the United States on June 23, 2006. It was made on a budget of $82.5 million and grossed $240.7 million. It was nominated for Best Makeup at the 79th Academy Awards (it lost the award to Pan's Labyrinth). This makes Click the only Sandler-produced film (as of 2023) to be nominated for an Academy Award.
