Why Robtop removed these icons from Geometry dash 2.2?

With Geometry Dash 2.2 releasing, we received a whole lot of new icons! But did you know there are a few icons that were supposed to be added but later got cut for unknown reasons?
Here we take a look at some of them! And do you ever think we will see any of them get added to Geometry dash?

I wish amogus made it (my player color 2 is light blue, it would have fit)

[@javierbeltran7410]

Bruh the reason that Robtop didn't add the icons that the creators were fine with being in the game is Robtops fault and should be reminded of them, and added in 2.21, also im sad the ball didn't get added due to the dilemma I would've used it 😢

[@boffisgd]

Well Im sure there's a logical explanation behind them so lets not bash Rob. Allthough I do hope to see the cleaner icons (Those that dont look controversial or was made by controversial people) gets added.

[@flaze_0]

bro did you even pay attention in the video. there is a lot of reasons they werent added, some look awful, and some ARE awful. don't knoe why anyone would expect them back

[@katsudon2048]

You could tell robtop

[@boffisgd]

Well if Robtop we're to add it without credit, he risks getting a lawsuit from Amor. And besides nobody would wanna use the icon due to the history behind the creator.

[@Delta_9239]

I feel like rob could redesign the among us icon, and then add it

[@S1NPowerZ]

@Delta yeah I never thought of that I agree.

[@GMDTheOnyxGuyEizzX]

4:16 Honestly, I'm more curious about that white-lightblue spider, gosh darn it looks clean. I was hoping back then it would get added...

[@SkooolBoi]

2:34 this cube probably wasnt added because of its controversial design. During 2.2s release, tidal wave had been going under a lot of controversy and this is one of the block designs from the remake 👍

[@MiraCatsyGMD]

There was this Cat Swing icon which i really was looking forward too but was dissapointed to see it not added within the update.

[@ivantu8925]

Leopardo’s icon was fine. This icon represents an important Hindu symbol, not the controversial stuff we all know and hate. Two symbols are very different, they are literally mirror images of each other. So that’s why Leopardo’s icon actually has nothing wrong with it I just hope Rob cut it because of copyright issues and not because he can’t see the difference between two symbols with very different meanings.

[@No_king1143]

but they’re literally the same symbol just rotated 😭😭

[@RetroAdvance64]

2:20 -- I agree on that one, least favorite of my own icons. I do admit, it was very clear that back in 2020 when the contest was held, that cat icon was made for my texture pack but being the crazy mf i was back then i simply submitted the cube without thinking twice. This feels like a mistake sometimes but if there's someone who likes it then no worries, i have no issues with it but i simply don't like it :(

Since the Leopardo Icon is not tilted diagonally it's technically not that symbol but rather that Hindu symbol but religious symbols can't be in Geometry Dash either way so it still wouldn't work.
