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.

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.

IMO, the ending of Dash is a transition to the Tower, where the player will likely go next. This is reinforced by the fact that you seem to start in some kind of forest, then progress into a temple, and then find a secret way (omg geometry dash reference) leading to a... closed room, that you end up opening by counting to 3 backwards. When you finally break the wall, you see the mechanisms behind the temple that end up opening the entrance to the Tower.

I think people complain about the lack of decoration in the second half of the level because it's much less diverse than the first half. While in the intro you have a lot of variety in the textures used for the blocks, in the second half they mostly stay the same. For example in that ship part, the spikes that you have to fly through appear on tall, identical pillars that take up the entire screen. Some more visual diversity would've been welcome, I think. It just looks too gray. There's also basically no ground deco while it was a big part of the start of the level.

I like your idea with the third coin being "reeled in".

13:18 I think the first coin is fixable. For example, you can add tiny spikes to the red blocks as you said, but not to the coin trigger block. However, the red block that activates the coin should be somewhere in the middle and not at the end of the section. If you hit a red block, the ceiling falls on you. If you hit the coin red block, the ceiling still falls, but a hole opens in the ground and you fall through it and escape (and continue playing down there to get the coin).

[@ezdispenser]

that's such a cool idea

38:37 I don't know but I have a theory that maybe the skull could be like a portal and then it takes you in (Maybe into like explorers or the tower) but I don't actually know. Robtop might rework the ending (Like a 0.1% chance)

[@AwayCannon201]

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.😄

The reason I'm excited for a new GD Colon video far more than any other ytber is because of these things: *1:* The videos are long but they never get boring; the script's info and humour never falls off and neither does the editing. *2:* His personality: he is a nit-picky and sorta perfectionist and doesn't hide it and that's why we all like him. And *3:* His videos don't leave you empty like shorts or tiktok; what he says adds value to the viewer and you are actually a smarter person at the end. Edit: MORE Things. *4:* He addresses his FLAWE and changes. He said he'll be more positive and he has been a lot more in this video but he is still keeping his criticism side. *5:* He elaborates on all of his concerns and criticism so that even if you do not agree with it, you see his POV and valid reason not to like the part. Colon, if you're reading this, NEVER change.

(38:44) The skulls symbolizes Rattle Dash so the end of Dash is actually the Rattle Dash ending because the level is dedicated to Rattle Dash, which is also why the level shares his last name. Rattle Dash is love and Rattle Dash is live.

For the first secret coin, the "4/5 of something" is actually showing the 4 yellow blocks, followed by the red one which you hit to get the coin.

@@JackMaglc Well, he said "...4 out of 5 of... something." (12:40). If he did know, he probably wouldn't have said it like that. He even literally called it a counter (12:38). So, from my assumption, he didn't know that.

[@AvalancheTV]

I love how the laser sounds sync up to the first few clicks too

[@doodlefrogo]

28:50 I feel like you accidentally made a good suggestion on how to fix the 3rd coin here: Because those blocks were introduced at the beginning of the level as an interactive mechanic (i.e. hit the correct blocks to progress), AND those same blocks in the single screen part lack spikes around the cube’s path of travel, maybe hitting those specific blocks could trigger the 3rd coin instead! It could even allow for visual feedback towards the player, as perhaps hitting the block would light them up or progress the coin into view as you suggested.

Considering the overwhelming amount of new features in 2.2 compared to other updates, I think it's a bit of a shame we didn't get more new levels, ones that would each introduce a few concepts (for example a swing level just like cycles is a ball level, the sideways level etc.) Basically what Subzero did I guess but in the main game

Also one thing that colon didn't mention (but I though is really cool) is the sign on the pillars of the beginning. The sing it looks very normal with an arrow indicating that go forward, but once you pass the arrow reveals to be a sticker, and what is really behind it, its a skull indicating danger/death. It doesn't bring any 2.2 features i just see it and though "that is really cool"

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'm pretty sure you can survive at mach 10 and actually continue the level with the music being off-beat
