[@Bradenbowl]

What's funny is I actually found this in the editor a few weeks ago. I thought it was a funny joke, but didn't realized this is actually used in the level. Clever work, and I'm surprised after more then a month, we are still being shocked of the little details in this level. Genius moves

[@rRenz106]

[@DaveVR83]

I wouldn't be surprised if we find more, this level is perfect for hiding secrets and easter eggs. Like, an extremely long memory level full of mazes and split paths? Perfect for hiding things

In 2.2, you should add a reverse trigger so that it sends you back to the beginning of the level

Bro

[@irmamarcial1119]

the eye may be mean

[@fruzzra]

So, if you read the backstory, “coward” in the message is referring to the scientist who got reborn as a cube, and “pick a key” is the 8 keys. “Don’t let them win” is referring to the robot that killed the scientist. “LIMBO” is a catholic term meaning the afterlife condition of those who die in original sin without being assigned to the Hell of the Damned. The robot probably made the keys float around so it would be harder for him to shut down.

[@PalkisAlt]

Yeah sometimes I wondered what would happen if you skipped all the keys I really had a theory that if you somehow failed to get the keys, you’d fail to “get out of the limbo” and instead face worse consequences But my brain is just weird

THIS LEVEL IS SO AWESOME I was about to write a lot, but I couldn't fully express my thoughts But this level being so in depth, like having full easter eggs, and a whole character, and story somehow, and it just being so amazing in general is incredible to see I really hope more things like this come out, it seriously feels like you made an entire game in a 3 minute long level This is without a doubt the greatest level ever made in Geometry Dash, and I don't know how someone could argue against that I bought the sweatshirt, excited for its arrival :)

Because like many people fail to beat it, and people who made it is desperate to win, even if they did not follow the key, the would guess.

[@suspiciousshadeofgreen]

It says “Pick the key coward, don’t let it win” which only makes sense if you’ve seen the limbo backstory, but it’s really clever if you have.
