Should Electrodynamix Be A DEMON? (Geometry Dash)

For years, man has pondered one thing: Should Electrodynamix be rated Insane or Demon in Geometry Dash?
Currently, Electrodynamix sits as one of the last Insane levels in the game to date, released back in 1.7, but is it really just a difficult Insane level, or is it a misplaced easier Demon?
Today, I'll be analyzing it alongside the current demons to try and determine an answer!

The amount of differing replies here is why I felt this question was so interesting. All throughout the comments there are people who absolutely think it's a demon but just as many who think it's definitely an insane.

I also struggled with it but after more practice, it seems like easier now but I can say it's harder than the nightmare which is an easy demon, so I agree that it can be easy demon won't get past it

[@RealDJB]

Electrodynamix being Insane feels appropriate considering the demon that came before it. The design of its gameplay does share various elements to demons, but overall it is much easier and I think a lot of difficulty simply comes from stress of going so fast, alongside the need to keep control, and remember certain sections more than others. I wouldn't complain if it was re-rated Demon, but having two back to back doesn't feel right for the official levels.

[@ManFaceManYes]

I think there should be a new difficulty in between Insane And Demon. And one in between Harder And Insane. Electrodynamix would go into the first one. And the second one would have maybe Fingerdash, Electroman Adventures, and maybe Geometrical Dominator

[@beeswarmfan6662]

I feel like Electrodynamix (in my humble opinion) is in a weird sorta limbo area between Insane and Easy Demon. On one hand, it's difficulty is unparalleled to other insane levels such as Clutterfunk and Electroman Adventures, with no doubt in my mind it being the hardest of all the Insane levels. But, on the other hand. I feel it's difficulty doesn't quite match up to that of the demon levels we have currently. Of course, the similarities are there, but at the end of the day, I think we can agree that the gameplay in Electrodynamix is much easier and more forgiving than that of the demons. I'd say to solve this problem I think RobTop should add a difficulty in-between Insane and Easy Demon, the new name of this difficulty should be "Extreme". Not only is it fitting, being more, well, extreme than insane, if we rename "Medium Demon" to "Normal Demon" it would match up almost (since there's no "Harder Demon") 1:1 with the Demon Ratings. I think RobTop with this could also add a "Harder Demon" difficulty in-between Hard and Insane Demon, as over the past years with things like growing skill gaps and other catalysts like the Demon List, the skill gap between Hard Demons and Insane Demons is getting pretty big. All of this would make sense too, seeing as we can give "Extreme" a rating of 10*, then from there as the demons increase in difficulty, so do the star values increase by a factor of 1*; higher difficulty, higher reward. With the demons giving a star value above 10*, it gives them more power and feeling, more drive to complete them. Easy Demon = 11*, Medium/Normal Demon =12*, Hard Demon = 13*, etc.

I think the fact that electrodynamix is rated insane as opposed to demon motivates people to beat the level , something about that factor triggers a pshycological desire to beat the level

[@arriesslanss9696]

Yes this is true, when I was a kid I beat xstep and clutterfunk so naturally I thought I was capable of beating another insane electrodynamix. Electrodynamics being rated as it is definitely made me better tho cause once I played clubstep it was much easier than before

[@jasonbraun127]

When I first bought the game many years ago Electrodynamix was the hardest level I've beaten. I gave Clubstep a couple of tries but there was so much hype around beating a demon and it seemed so much more difficult than the rest of the levels that I eventually gave up on it. Once I got a bit older I revisited the game, beat all of the demons and collected all of the coins. Now I think the demons weren't as hard as I initially perceived them to be so the rating definitely influenced how I viewed them when I was younger.

Honestly I’d like to see a video talking about all of the main level difficulty’s. Also the insane rating is so weird because everyone just wants anything remotely hard to be a demon. No one goes and says, “I’m gonna make an insane rated level today.” People need to remember the name of the difficulty, “insane.”

The only concerns people have is if Electrodynamix should be Insane or Demon And also if Deadlocked should be Easy or Medium Demon. Past that, discussions for other levels isnt that much talked about.

[@XtrminatR7]

An insane rated custom level in my opinion is just a failed demon. And no one wants to beat an insane level because they don't add up to your demon count. They are quite hard but aren't really worth it because there are Easy Demons, which reward more stars and demon count and aren't really much harder.

I just finished electrodynamix a few days ago and I was so hyped. This video just makes the feeling better :)

[@wraith_2309]

This level was the very first level I was introduced to Geometry Dash as a whole back then in 2016, and I LOVED IT, it got me hooked to the game. The amount of satisfaction beating Electrodynamix with the 3 coins was something I'll never experience it again, truly amazing. And I occasionally come back to it because I love the theme, the song and the difficulty, the level itself is like cheering for you to beat it. I know some people may hate it, but for me, it's one of my favourite levels in the entire game and holds a special place in my heart.

[@arriesslanss9696]

Bro I felt this. This level literally motivated me to get better at ship. Now it is currently my best gamemode and my hardest is nerf this lol

[@adamas6454]

The thing about electrodynamix is that it’s super skill based, so now that I almost have an extreme done it seems like a very easy level compared to the demons, but I remember back when I sucked, being able to beat toe2 but not electro so I think its relative difficulty just depends on how good at the game you are if that makes any sense

[@filewr8515]

The reason why I do believe electrodynamix should be a demon, is because RobTop insanes are usually learny, but easy once you understand the gameplay, RobTop demons have much more pure difficulty, like Electrodynamix. Some cube parts in Electrodynamix are literally harder difficulty, while the 3x ship parts belong in a hard easy demon, so I think, that Electrodynamix deserves a demon rating.

[@darkie1240]

Same as a person who completed an insane demon, electrodynamix is super easy. Even so, Difficulty wise its much more comparable to clubstep than hexagon force, and clubstep is more comparable to electrodynamix than deadlocked. Pre clubstep, electrodynamix was very hard and i couldnt do it but after clubstep it didnt feel that hard

from personal experience, most of clubstep isn't too bad with some practice and the vast majority of my deaths are past 66%. I feel a parallel between that and electrodynamix getting even harder past the 3x speed portal

[@houserhouse]

The hardest part of Electrodynamix for me, who was there when it first came out, was dealing with new speeds that we had all never dealt with in-game before up to that point. The 3x speed ship looked absolutely cracked until I had had time with the update. Nowadays it's really no issue. But it's phenomenal for preparing for what's to come in user levels

I think if it ever gets an easy demon rating, then a few buffs to the easier sections would help solidify that rating. If not, than maybe lowering the rating of the easier insane rated levels would make sense

they have to change difficulty or decrease the nightmare difficulty because if it's an easy demon electrodynamix is instantly a hard demon+

[@YahooYoutuber2048]

3:49 is quite easy if you account for player colours. I think the click pattern based UFOs earlier on were much harder.

[@curnox]

mini analysis: i think the only reason people think electrodynamix should be a demon is because of the 3x speed, and the tight ship sections because the only other level that has 3x speed is Deadlocked, which similarly has tight wave sections

[@filewr8515]

My theory: Robtop originally wanted Electrodynamix to be a demon, but he looked back, throught that 2 demons back to back would be a weird thing in general, and started buildnig much easier parts, than before. The reason why I think this, or something similar is true is because the ship sections, the UFO and the first cube in electrodynamix all belong in an easy demon, but the cube parts and the ball parts in the second half are much easier and belong in an insane.

[@santiagochaparro3099]

I believe that electrodynamix is not hard enough to be considered a demon. For me, the difficulty gap between it and Clubstep or ToE2 is quite significant, and those two levels are low to mid easy demons. Rating Electrodynamix as a demon would be like nerfing the very concept of a demon level. The thing here is that many of the insane official levels should be actually harders, with the exceptions of Electrodynamix, Hexagon Force, Clutterfunk, and maybe ToE (mainly because of the coins). In the other hand, Xstep, Electroman Adventures, Dash, and Fingerdash are not much harder than Cycles, which is a proper harder level. In conclusion, Electrodynamix is well rated as an insane level, being clearly the hardest of this difficulty among the official levels. It would be an epic insane, but not enough to be a demon.

I wouldn’t say it’s a demon level. While it has similarities it also is much easier to learn than the demons, and the difficulty doesn’t remain at a high level constantly like in the demons. It acts more of a bridge between insane and demon, giving players a taste of what a demon is like without being one.

[@johnfsenpai]

the "deceiving" stuff doesn't matter, you notice it in a few tries and then you can get over it. the "invisible" spikes and platforms are quite visible if you look ahead (which you should do if you want to react fast enough to what a difficult level throws at you). but the timing in Clubstep is much tighter than anything in electrodynamix.

[@newcs9767]

6:59 There's also a fake platform on the ground similar to the ones in clubstep's ball part. It isn't as convincing as the clubstep ones, but it's still designed to look like a real platform (same decoration, but without the highlighted lines) to trick the player into falling through it and dying.

Before this point they did not exist, everything was normal speed and suddenly you are going twice or in some parts three times the normal speed.

Ugh i havent played this game in years but the deadlocked wave stuff still brings be main. 2k attempts to beat, 1200 failed on first wave, and about 700 on second wave. Once i beat second wave, i still remember clutching the rest of the level, i was so dang shaky for the rest of the day

[@heyguysimcharlie]

While your point makes sense using your metrics, something crucial about these levels that you missed is the sections that could stop them from being demons. The three demons all have relatively difficult gameplay all the way through (minus their first cubes,) whereas when Electrodynamix's easier sections could be in a 5*. While Electrodynamix would be a demon if the whole level was as difficult as its ship sections, it just isn't.

[@heyguysimcharlie]

Also, the other insane levels you compare Electrodynamix to, like Xstep, should be rated 'harder' if Electrodynamix's difficulty is so different. While the Robtop levels' star ratings may not be equivalent to modern levels, their difficulty faces are.

[@GemDuster]

This is actually a rlly good point. Also as for the Xstep thing, Xstep actually would fit pretty well with harder levels. (Especially since it’s noticeably easier than Cycles)

[@Dexuz]

@@GemDuster Xstep is not easier than Cycles, both require different abilities like triple spike jumps or tighter flight. Considering everything about them, they end up as similar, same applies to Time Machine.

I didn’t know that Electrodynamix was that close to demons. I think the traits that the demons have is a lot more subtle in Electrodynamix. Also the difficulty itself doesn’t hold up to what people consider as demons. I’m also really consistent with it, which I haven’t gotten to yet for demons.

I remember the first time i beat electrodynamix, and it was initially very hard for me. But after almost two years or so, I didn't find the gameplay of electrodynamix hard anymore, probably because I have completed over 160 demons, including Electrodynamix v2 by Neptune. I don't think Electrodynamix will change to a demon anytime soon, because when new players start to get better at the game, they would start thinking that Electrodynamix won't be that hard for them anymore. Of course this is just my opinion

I feel like since there tends to be a discrepancy with user-created ratings and official level ratings, levels like clutterfunk would realistically be rated as a ~7-8 star while electrodynamix would be a high 9 star. Not quite demon, but certainly a difficult challenge nonetheless.

I played GD as a kid and couldn't clear more than the first three levels and recently, several years later i gave it another try and in no time I had practically finished the free version. I went from stereo madness to electrodynamix in 2 months and while it's clearly harder than other insane levels I completed it fairly rapidly thanks to most of it being easy memory work. On the other hand i still find clubstep to be on a complete other level and didn't even clear a third of it in a run yet. So while I do think it is the hardest insane level, in my opinion it's not as hard as a demon for sure

[@tarunrapaka]

For me, Electrodynamix was pretty hard, but after some practice, you get used to it. Although the mini-ship is hard, it is only two sections at triple speed. In fact, it took less attempts for me to beat this level compared to hexagon force.

Electrodynamix's difficulty just comes from the speed of the ship, an element of the game that people have trouble mastering at the beginning. Once you do & you play on higher refresh rate, Electrodynamix is just a simple insane.

I think electrodynamix is more like an unbalanced 9 star since there are a lot of easy parts and is also too hard for an average easy demon. even though the last 3 ship parts are pretty hard for insane difficulty, if the whole level was like that difficulty, then it would be a demon.

What you need to do now to get even more foundation is to compare Electrodynamix to the Insane levels as well. Looks for similarities and differences that makes Electrodynamix harder (or easier is some sections probably) to the other insane difficulty levels. This is already a solid foundation of how Electrodynamix is very... Demon-like, shall we say. But you can take it into consideration to get an even better idea of what Electrodynamix is like as a level compared to others.
