"devin2003" (Insane Demon) by 2003devin | Geometry Dash 2.11

[@AeonAir]

I find it fascinating how Devin approaches creating. I like how this is similar to a lot of music albums, that are named after the artist or band, to be used as a "this is us" kinda album, and seeing this 5 minute long level, that represents everything Devin does, is very cool. Definitely one of my favorites this year

[@rolandfilip2780]

Im expecting a video about this level

[@Nister.N]

@@rolandfilip2780 there better be

[@robf1557]

Interesting point, which makes me wonder why the art of "self-titled" levels hasnt really been done by that many creators, since its such a staple in the world of music. Would definitely be cool to see more creators do that

[@Sheim-b4k]

Agreed. (9 months late)

[@ZDXNeru]

Why is their style similar though? Did they inspire from the other or something?

[@squidstrasse]

zylenox taught devin how to create levels which may the be the reason. devin wouldve also taken a lot of inspiration from him

[@JamAttack]

this guy has so much potential and uses it to make a lot of random stuff, varied in quality, and sometimes controversial, and I love that way more than if he didn't

[@gdfyredragan2270]

I wouldn't really say devin is just potential now, he really has shown what he can execute in the editor; he has nothing to prove anymore. Man's already surpassed the potential he has shown previously.

[@marcxworld5708]

idk what you mean by he has potential, potential for what? He's somewhat mastered his style at this point

[@nwchef]

yea naw this is not "potential" this is close to being the best level ever made

[@PlutonAstronomy]

That is not potential, that is total mastery

[@Idont_eatcrocs]

He put a wet sloppy kiss in the middle of the level

[@BurningMagma]

Despite the effect being somewhat epileptic to me, I love how the background at 0:22 resembles how light works in real life.

[@Periwinkleaccount]

“Epileptic” doesn’t mean flashing.

[@vrtr1]

​@@Periwinkleaccount but flashing does mean epileptic?

[@Periwinkleaccount]

@@vrtr1 nope. Epilepsy means that someone gets seizures, (only sometimes convulsions. People seem to think that they’re the same and that all seizures are also convulsions, but that’s not true) and photosensitive epilepsy means that someone gets seizures because of flashing lights.

[@skywalker14]

you can feel like as if the level has a soul, it's not a perfectly polished level, nor does it tries to be one. it's a truthful, raw ode to his previous works while also adding something new. a journey through one's mind, and I love it to death, glad to see the king upload again!

[@leha_vdele]

Agree Also it has no fear to do something unique

[@VALIANTIVY]

1:50 is genuinely the single coolest transition i have EVER seen in a level.

[@princenishikigoi7439]

Devin is the New Zylanox currently for me. His style of building is quite odd (in a good way) and artistic. The atmosphere that he creates really adds up to the level. Great job Devin.

[@msm_12]

I don't know 2003devin personally but this level really just feels like I'm getting an insight into his personality. It's hard to explain tbh but I mean this in the best way possible. Everything is just so unique and amazingly strange. I think the most interesting part about this to me is the contrast between super well and clean looking designs and a lot of stuff that looks just very unpolished and random, but you can tell that this was all made intentionally. This level doesn't try to be anything but just stands for itself and I really appreciate this artistic approach.

[@moltengears7483]

Oddly creepy and off putting at times? Lol

2003devin never hesitates to pump out bangers. I will never grow out of his unique style.

[@sohumchatterjee9]

Devin is basically the solution to the generic level issue that GD faces: Making unique levels without giving a damn about conventions

[@Relevance334]

Despite his levels being controversial, he also gives artistic expressions, and also pure art in his levels.

[@dustybud3859]

why are his levels controversial?

[@Relevance334]

@@dustybud3859 Red Rooms and Man Man were infamous for its gory, bloody design.

hopefully devin will get nominated on the awards like last year, this level really bangs

[@shylaGD]

hopefully he also wins the awards like last year!

[@hhxa23]

he hasn't made much this year unfortunately

[@TimesOldRoman]

All the time I've spent looking at his levels I couldn't express that weird feeling, but I think I got it now: his levels look like flash-games of older times - unhinged, weird, but amazing. And it shows not just in the deco, but the gameplay too. It all looks out of place, as if it was made in Flash or some external programm. Devin is an amazing creator, one of the most unique for sure!

[@SimplyNiro]

"How many gimmicks do you want to have in your level?" Devin: Yes

[@amaryllis.2259]

Seeing this makes me emotional, its been a wild year devin. And i hope you get even more surprising and recognised each level ❤

[@GDPARKS]

I saw this level a few days ago on twitter. I love how cartoony devin's levels are, specially on the design :)

[@mrdan31]

The song is flawless, it perfectly combines with the strange nature of the level

[@sinksinksink]

This guys levels are amazing! Not only is the deco super high quality, the gameplay is super interesting too

[@LucasAPC06]

This level deserves either an epic rate or no rate at all, lol. This is so amazing, maybe one of the best levels of all time, but it's almost _not_ a level, but yes a world of graphisme and art to be only appreciated. The gameplay, although quite unbalanced, sometimes unreadable and so on, it's quite unique, and not bad at all, maybe just not that enjoyable. After all, it's just 2003devin stuff, and his unique fashion

[@LucasAPC06]

I wanna edit the comment, but I would lose the heart, so I'll write down here: If I were 2003devin I would be more offended if I get a only rated or only featured instead of getting no rate at all. Idk how to explain, and probably not many people agree, but it is what I feel.

[@Siionide]

it most likely wont due to it being nong, examples of this are esfera & slaughterhouse, reason being mobile players can use nong songs

[@maxis044]

Devin just gotta stay at a very high position on my fav creators list. Not afraid of breaking trends and standards, just doing what he feels like doing. This is what made him one of the landmark creators of the current time. Amazing creator

[@redapplefour6223]

i really like how the gore part in this level, different from being shocking as it is in his few other levels with the theme, acts as a big climax bc its used in the climax of the song, like you're somehow infiltrating the big area of this nonsensical journey. it's so unique and has such a strange feeling and is my favorite use of that theme, even if this is a bit of like a level mix kinda thing

[@Komatic5]

Really nice to see levels with this much care put into them.

[@mooky01]

Not gonna lie, this was one of the coolest levels I've seen in quite some time. Some parts feel just a tad bit rushed, but the artistic ideas here are fantastic. Devin feels like the Radiohead of Geometry Dash creators.

What an unique level ! Should definitely get rated !

​@@rolandfilip2780yes it will. It will get rated.

[@endmjwknj]

Honestly, I think his levels are on a category of it's own. Like, it's great to get recognition from something you think is great or worked a lot having that as a goal. His levels always go above anyone else standards, it doesn't think it's good, it knows so. And the goal is something entirely different, whatever it may be. So I think it's fine even if it never gets rated.

[@Xentoabyte]

The nature elements in this level remind me of my last two levels. That's my favorite thing about this level

[@nitrothekid2323]

One of my favourite levels of all time, Devin's lack of care for convention is on a whole other level and I absolutely adore what he does without the restriction of keeping to the norm. Genuinely incredible, 10/10 song, 10/10 gameplay, 16/10 decoration.

[@O_Li_18]

I remember me in the past, when I was drawing things in white and black. I don't put colors to them, and some people think it could be better with less details. This level shows exactly what I want to make.

[@kodemp7421]

Devin takes everything about creating, throws it in a shredder, and then reassembles the pieces in a matter only he understands, and I love that style a lot

[@Spomf]

Creators that use Geometry Dash as an artistic canvas ignoring creator points is the only reason I keep playing this game, I just don't care if the levels are less polished compared to others or if they are a bit awkward to play at times, I prefer to remember the level than forgetting it instantly because it's too similar to others. I would give this level an extensive review of why I love it so much but it would be too long for me too write right now as I have things to say of every single part, so let's just say that this level is amazing, and it's one of my favourite Devin levels for sure, it feels like the level has a soul, that it's expressing itself, that has a mind, which is incredibly hard to pull off.
