Is “Back on Track” REALLY Harder Than “Stereo Madness”? |

Stereo madness has multiple parts where you just hold and keep jumping

[@roanberg8575]

Yesh

[@sussyboi1248]

true...

So does back on track but shorter. Back on track still seems easier to me and i beat it in less attempts.

Back on Track was the first level I ever beat (in GD lite). Despite it, in my opinion, being easier, it makes for a perfect second level due to its slightly increased complexity (with the jump pads).

[@aykarain]

I beat stereo madness first in gd but i totally agree

[@WClap]

I beat Stereo Madness first But then I beat Back on Track no problem after Stereo Madness

Me too

[@stefmarshall2502]

1st of all I ever beat was Is Back on track

[@Realnowaybruh]

Gd lite cube😰

[@jakepark7555]

The reason for this is because back on track featured a new thing and they wanted to let the player get comfortable with it. Stereo madness starts REALLY easy to let the player know how far you can jump. The triple spike was there to show the maximum of spikes you can jump over.

I disagree. The first level introduces the cube and ship, whereas Back on Track has cube, ship, and jump pads. This makes it more complex.

[@parkour_tnt1331]

I also thought that, but after making some of my family members play the second level before Stereo Madness, I noticed that they get confused because of all the jump pads. So while the second level might be easier for players who are used to the game it might actually be harder for people who just started playing the game. Edit: Also, the second-level spacing between spikes and blocks is more confusing in general.

[@TRUELittleNooby]

you can just simply tell them that you dont need to click for a jump pad to work tho

[@parkour_tnt1331]

@@TRUELittleNooby The problem isn't that they don't know how jump pads work, it's that they're not used to it yet. In general, I think the second level is easier but more confusing due to the addition of jump pads and the spacing of obstacles (Especially for a new player).

Back on track is level 2 because it has one more information to keep in mind: jump pads. Polargeist adds orbs, dry out is gravity and etc.

[@christianberry3031]

Well coin arguments are kind of stupid considering they were added in 1.6 and the levels were not built around coins. Also judging difficulty by coins doesn’t make sense either because they are not mandatory to beat the level so that can’t add to the difficulty. I’m not saying back on track is easier than stereo madness or that stereo madness is easier than back on track but that coin arguments are invalid

Although back on track is easier, it still should remain the 2nd level because it introduces new mechanics such as jump pads

The levels are not ordered by difficulty, they’re ordered by mechanics and complexity. Back on Track is easier than Stereo Madness only if you’re already used to the game. Stereo Madness is a better training ground for new players since it’s more clear and has only basic spikes.
