How a Game Made by One Person Made $100,000,000+

🐻 In this video, I present the journey of Robert Topala, how his project Geometry Dash flopped at the beginning, but over a decade later, it became a multi-million dollar masterpiece.
👀 Watch the entire video so you don't stand out from the rest!

The voice in this video was generated by ElevenLabs, however, all other aspects of the video, including the script, editing, and thumbnail, were done by hand. I understand that a real voice would be better, but I don't have the facilities to record high-quality vocals. Thank you for your understanding.

[@DccToon]

you could use wo mic its a mobile tool but your microphone in your phone could be good too

[@Riaz-exe]

I'll do some commentary if you need it 😅😅

[@willisaclown4190]

i can understand this

[@tnowa]

honestly I thought that it was your voice

“2.2 has changed the Geometry Dash”

[@tryctan2399]

"he's a creator of geometry dash" “2.2 has completly changed the Geometry Dash” "dying a few percent" "added a lot broader map creator function" "started to be created a lobotomy levels"

[@SugarCubic709]

Definitely not strange

Departure by Galv4tron (The level in the 2024 side), wasn't actually made in 2024. It was made sometime in 2023 for a creator contest hosted by waboo.

[@7lucGMD]

so thats how ignorant people are, willing to put fake things in their thumbnails, ive never seen something like this

[@theweirdpurplephantom1398]

You forgot to mention that geometry dash world could play limited online levels

[@Lumineonxx]

well since the update, it has more but well you’re still correct that its limited

i mean, its accurate

It's not wrong

[@draskoczybarnabas4925]

The level is Rupture under it, and its not even an extreme🤣

[@mrguy3975]

@@draskoczybarnabas4925 I dont even know that level but I'm not talking about it bro

[@arandomorange]

MISTAKES: 1. Geometry Dash is not even close to a brand, despite being worth millions. 2. There is actually one more difficulty - auto. 3. The demon difficulty was added in 1.3, and was split into five later in the game. Before then, it was just unrated, auto, easy, normal, hard, harder and insane. 4. World can play limited levels that were once featured levels - heck, you can even play Nine Circles in GD World, as it was featured on April 1st, 2020. 5. It's called platformer mode, not free movement mode. 6. Logodomy is based off a Terraria boss, not an Undertale boss.

You said the wrong game reference when talking briefly about the Logodomy. The level is based around a Terraria mod, not Undertale.

[@CreeperSilau]

You forgot that GD is also a game engine now

[@lumi2030]

minor correction: rupture, which is at 3:02, is an insane demon, not extreme, although some could argue it's extreme lol

[@pengplays149]

I don’t understand. 50% of this video was completely random irrelevant shit about geometry dash that isn’t directly related to how the game generated money and success over the years. Good video but holy crap this could have had a way better script and topics 😐

[@zasoggy]

I JUST watched this guys video on Brawl Stars. This guy is hitting all the games I play

[@DzekoZacher]

decently detailed researched video, compressed the history of a popular game into a 9 minutes video. you just gained yourself a loyal sub

[@laundryiconsdontmakesense]

4:39 and some levels that you will only complete by hacking.... a few being like Ballistic Wistfully...

So I just got geometry star but no creator point or the rated level in my editor

This channel is going to be big in the future. The video is very well done: It was enjoyable to watch and visually very appealing. The editing is fire, especially considering how many different other videos were used. For an outside observer, you've got pretty much everything right. Oliver Ward (@arandomorange) stated out the minor mistakes.
