Just Shapes & Beats - (Updated Version) Termination Shock [Rank S]

[@SWonderleaf]

What always puzzled me was the difficulty of this level for its placement in the story. It's a huge difficulty spike, for me, it was the most difficult level I played. I like the updated version, as it makes it a lot less random.

[@Scarlet-bq6xu]

Same, this was the only level I had to use casual mode on

[@njstudent155]

The only difficulty spike for me was cool friends, still didnt take me too long to beat tho

[@kyubeyz_7062]

So how about Cool Friends and The Lunar Whale

[@njstudent155]

@@kyubeyz_7062 I already said my feelings on cool friends, and lunar whale is not bad placement because it comes after cool friends

They also updated “Paper Dolls”, you can’t stay in the right side in the end anymore :)

[@LeBIah]

But i found easy way, stay at left up side and use hitbox and dash

[@MyBinGamer]

I can. :)

[@AtlasFox_]

Sad, that's how i S ranked it

[@AntiWeebPenguin]

I'm glad i did it before the update

[@SWonderleaf]

I S ranked the updated "Paper Dolls" because I hadn't unlocked it before the update. It was difficult, but not too difficult.

[@SomePotatoMan]

Even after the update, this level was still the bane of my existence.

[@lacytheespeon517]

I honestly found it harder after the update

[@oldluckeeslime2589]

I used to hate this level. Now I adore it.

[@rini_6982]

Same, I regretted hating it.

[@Trimint123]

For you guys that don't know the different from the old version and this one, the old version had a lot of triangle spikes on all of the pillars. Those are removed because it's unnecessary to be there just because you won't get hit by those and makes it difficult on the third checkpoint (at 1:53). Also, at 1:08, besides of changes the spikes animation, it also now move to the right to prevent a cheap spot on the bottom right corner.

[@unquestionableexistance8704]

They basically made it easier but also harder

[@donk2121]

??

[@onewindow7712]

Easier: removed spikes from some of the pillars and the pillar warnings are more helpful Harder: changed the movement of some of the pillars

[@nitroexsplosion]

Whenever they update a level they should keep the original as well so people can swap between the two. So new players can know the hell that was this level.

[@lychee-bear1155]

well, i would say this is harder

[@trinaparsons1363]

I like the old version better.

[@wolfywoo7872]

Same with me

[@whenitsthe4907]

this one needs more dorito slabs

[@donk2121]

So far I've noticed in this update differences in this, Cool Friends, Final Boss, and Paper Dolls. My least favorite change was one in Cool Friends which made the line of buzzsaws in the middle part slower; it took away what I thought was a fun challenge

[@StellarDrag0n]

Same

[@eikosimino5579]

@@donk2121 dude, s ranking cool friends was torture when that saw was fast

[@AlleeCatBlues]

That technique of staying at the edge of the screen and dashing really helped with the 2nd to last part! I was struggling pretty hard with this level, watched this video, and beat it in my first go. Thanks!

[@sp4rr1ng]

I like the updated version better.

[@blockeontheleafeon]

1:08 I LOVE The Attention to Detail that the Spikes Glow White right before "Attacking" you. :3

[@gbilo24]

Who is playing this game in 2019 on Nintendo Switch?

[@ThePoketrix]

I like how a certain section is no longer Ice Sign: Icicle Fall Easy. You can't just no-sell the pillars by staying in the bottom-right corner anymore, the pillars will move right every so often.

[@ausra112]

OMG thank you for the walkthrough

[@nonamegamer7615]

1:12 You used to be able to cheese part of this section by staying in the bottom right corner so i'm kinda little sad now lol :/ 1:23 thank god they fixed this it was way to hard. Also does anyone else think the previous things that came up looked like penguins? 2:07 my god this was hard already it didn't need to be harder ;w;

[@arcillanicoandreisalaveria3824]

At 1:41 you can now chill at the top right part of the screen and you only need to move if you need to dodge the pellets.

[@meteorite2124]

Buff and Nerf. Nice

[@awman5095]

Myself, а ты тоже заметил, что в финальной стадии которую я называю лесенки, эта атака теперь идет в противоположную сторону от своей вершины. А раньше эти лесенки двигались только влево. Что сказать уровень стал сложнее

[@Rubiksmaster64]

I don't understand! I don't speak whatever this language is!

[@cookiewithdreams1383]

Don't read if you don't understand :) Да уж, уровень действительно стал чуточку сложнее. Но всё равно для меня оригинал был лучше

[@CitrineFaerie]

The update makes this level better. Although compared to the old version, I could just stay at the bottom-right corner, and then the devs decided to remove the "safe zones" like what I had said before and in paper dolls. And in exchange for the nerfs the 4th section is slightly buffed. In conclusion, there is some improvement in the game and I like it. I hope they will add a level editor/creator because if they did, I'm quitting GD (not really).

[@AntiWeebPenguin]

If they do it i will quit GD too

[@icehot900]

What is gd you lazy pig write full name

[@oldluckeeslime2589]

@Kosta GD means Geometry Dash google it if you wanna know what it is

[@enlargedquack]

I appreciate them fixing the right corner cheese. Looks a lot smoother too!

[@arcillanicoandreisalaveria3824]

Issue is they added a new cheese zone (3rd part of 3rd phase, up right corner)

[@supercolby5871]

I was just playing normally and I went into playlist and did this level and I was like "WHAT THIS CHANGED HERE AND ALSO HERE AND THERE WHAT HAPPENED" now I under stand completely

[@lychee-bear1155]

oh wow! you beat it despite it being like 100% harder

[@KingdomKey-ik4xk]

They don't even change much in Hardcore mode. It just removes the telegraphs at the beginning.

[@boomerangmaster5674]

Yay its somewhat playable now

[@zoteiscool2134]

i found 2 bugs: 1.Once i played online, we chase the "dance of incognizant" and when the level came, the glitch appeared; casual mode turned itself (it was challenge mode), there was black title "chronos" and white "dubwoofer substep" in the same place, the game stopped, and i just appeared in menu. 2.When i played "dance of incognizant" alone in playlist, the "bubbles" with little points didn't appear, only little points, what was hard to know where the points will appear. at all i was saying the titles in point 1, 'cause it'll maybe be helpful, i also say i found glitch 2 after glitch 1

[@cookiewithdreams1383]

Well, first and last phases are better now. But I miss those spikes( Second phase was a lot easier than in previous version. That's sad. Same with cool friends. Developers made it easier. I wish they would add hard mode for tracks. I'm not talking about having less hp. I want levels to be faster (higher speed for objects that don't follow the rhythm of the music), more random and maybe some additional attacks

[@StarStreamVee]

The problem is that, if it didn't follow the rhythm, then the game wouldn't be like the devs intended the game to be. Just shapes and *beats*

[@cookiewithdreams1383]

It's possible to make obstacles faster and don't ruin the rhythm

[@coincoincoin]

They should've kept the spikes on them though
