Honestly, I agree entirely with the points made in this video; the secret coins could have been placed much better in Subzero's levels. I had to look that up to know where the secret coins were, which isn't something I would frequently do. I hope these mistakes aren't in the new 2.2 official levels.

I've never really sat down and thought about the secret coins in GD. They've always been something that's there, with little impact on the game for me. Sure you collect them to unlock RobTop demons, but you only need 30 out of the 149 present and you could potentially get all of them from Map Packs if you feel like torturing yourself. My favourite secret coins have always been the ones that require something small to get, like the first coin in Electroman or the second coin in Geometrical. So comparing that type of design to the Sub Zero coins, yeah, they aren't designed the best. What's weird about the coins where you smash yourself into a wall to get them is that they were already done perfectly fine in Meltdown. Viking Arena's second coin is just falling in a particular spot, but it's different in that you have a visual indicator on where you're meant to fall with a slightly transparent platform that juts out of the wall. So why not do that exact same thing in Sub Zero? Ultimately I think Sub Zero was designed with the levels first and then Rob suddenly remembered he had to put in secret coins, so threw them in in like 5 minutes, verified that they worked (somewhat) and then sent the games. It would certainly explain why most of them aren't well designed or why Power Trip's second coin is bugged on iOS. Maybe the game itself was rushed out, to meet an arbitrary deadline set by Rob. That would explain why Power Trip feels so empty and why the coins are like that. I do hope the secret coins in 2.2 are in better spots, but judging by the Sneak Peek we got where there's an unnecessary gravity change portal with no secret coin in sight, I'm not too confident that Rob has actually improved his coin placement. Here's to hoping though. UPDATE: While I think the new coins are better, my issues with Power Trip's first and second coin have changed from "It's just smashing yourself into a wall" to "It feels like you're playing an early 2.0 level with constantly moving platforms and invisible orbs."

Interesting, I was wondering about this a few days ago when I noticed the amount of coins I had in Subzero, compared to the other GD versions. I clearly remember at some point trying to completely cluelessly find the missing coins in practice mode by crashing against every obstacle I could and just randomly finding coins like that. After a while I just gave up on them x’)

[@kevinsebastian120]

The second coin in power trip was updated a while ago, if that makes it better. Now you have to click an invisible orb that eventually reveals a second one that helps you get the coin.

[@bubbingo]

It’s a good thing the game is updated now! If you go back and check you’ll find some pretty good changes to subzero’s coins!

At the first glance I thought this is just a useless hot take on mere secret coins, but this was so well-explained and actually MAKES SENSE, and the fact that this video also gives tips for the other creators on how to create coin routes at the same time. This video is so based, so is Colon.

[@randomaccount1840]

Crazy cuz robtop actually saw this and updated the coins 💀💀💀

[@fransiscayulianita68]

A little glitch that i found: When i was collecting the first coin in Press Start i think i did a pixel perfect noclip strat and fell through the ground in the coin area and then crashed behind a tiny spike.

THANKS COLON! You’re the hero of 2.2!

[@cyberdj4697]

I just noticed that the Third coin in Nock Em actually has a little visual giveaway! Before you get reversed the last pillar has 3 little glowing tiles on the ground (you can see them if you stop the video on 7:23), but they disappear after you enter the reversed state! They're also the only tiles to appear there so i guess that helps to notice it? But im not the one to judge if its a good giveaway or not. Anyways, Awesome video Colon, Keep up the good work.

that's probably just a mistake(?)

[@narutomeansspiral]

Now that 2.2 is out, the dash coins: 1 is perfect. You see the little green glowing eyes and you’re like “huh, wonder if i hit that” and you get the coin. Really fun and rewarding to figure out. 2 is actually terrible. A slightly different red in an animated fence that also includes a brand new mode? Absolutely horrible. Guaranteed 80%+ looked this one up. 3 is meh. I found it out just from being tap happy, some might have to look this one up.
