My levels arent rated cause looking for mods is mostly rng

[@tocide]

@@KyogreGames_GD this makes you wonder how many legendary levels there are hidden

[@Gooros9937]

Good informative video, the truth is this is one of the topics that almost none of the moderators dare to talk about and also there is no fixed "standard" to obtain the rate, very good video!!!

[@jaizereal]

As a person with creator points, I see the video title as an absolute win

[@eliasmybbg]

[@بطاطا-مقلي]

Thank you :D I've started making a level named "10 Years" for the 10th gd anniversary. I also felt that my level is pretty empty Thank you, GDCS

[@Johdanlop]

Im literally watching this while finishing my first Epic Worthy level, wish me luck!

[@Sparktwee]

Another W vid from GDCS ❤ This time, it touches the more marketing-related aspects of building levels, especially with the mention of selling points, hooks, and gaining player interest through appeal. I'm getting so much deja vu about the marketing mix.

[@gdffgdssgcgdcs]

Great video. To the point, informative with the correct information and well edited, keep up the good work! :)

[@NickAndriadze]

Unfortunately, the point about only unique and appealing levels getting rates... Isn't really true. There's way too much bland and generic mush making its way in the featured tab for that to ever be true. Aside that, awesome video, I loved the YoReid references, *(**0:56* & *1:40**)* easily one of my favourite creators of all time.

[@nik0biko_gd]

This is a really well put together video and is really helpful, especially to new creators! GJ!

[@codysmith8639]

Even as a person with creator points, this is still helpful :)

[@AjaxmationsProductions]

This is an amazing video. The same thing applies to Rated levels. My request has been denied on some servers even though the design is genius because it is from an underground game.

[@xplode09]

whats funny about this advice is that most featured levels are boring as hell anyway but still get rated (eg every split level and every robtop style level, along with many others which could probably include my own featured level)

[@Quazery]

I agree xplode

[@SuperstarStudioGD]

I think RobTop styled levels are fun IF gameplay is good and the right song is used for that gameplay

[@SuperstarStudioGD]

Like Waterflame songs for example

[@Sevant]

Diabolic Clubstep really do be too generic 😂

[@pixizkiel]

Good video as always! 😊

[@vayulenaGD]

[@bloodreptil]

The thing is that, most of ppl just simply cant do it cuz they just cant make details using editor objects, its super hard to come up with something using them. For me personally, didnt help that much cuz my problem is that I dont know WHAT to use.

[@GDCreatorSchool]

We have a separate video covering this topic as well, called “How to Use Objects in Geometry Dash” ^^

[@bloodreptil]

@@GDCreatorSchool I watched it before and yeah, it can help some people but my problem is that I just cant think of any ideas for using objects/cant figure out what objects to use for my idea.

[@GDCreatorSchool]

You should try experimenting and gaining more experience with choosing objects in that case

[@GOOBER_194]

honestly i feel like the only reason my level isn’t rated yet with 10 sends is because it’s a demon

[@ghog__]

Also one thing I’ve realized, you want more of a focal point in your level. The red level in the vid has focal points that are literally everywhere, that’s bad. You want to have a few where you want the player to be looking the most. Just one little thought.

[@lolop7452]

the level is called khorne

[@RiceCake420]

There is actually a video about that on this channel. The one about why too many details are bad

[@ghog__]

@@RiceCake420 Oh lol that’s ironic

[@J7unes]

You're a very underrated creator! I make visually appealing levels, but no one tends to notice them. Can you make a vid on getting a noticed level?

[@VibratoGD]

Great video, thanks for the tips!

[@ita_player3517]

This is similar to what i think when choosing a level to play

[@oTsuguu]

really cool, interesting i love it ❤

[@GMDpowerman11]

You don't need over the top editing. Sometimes less is more

[@GDCreatorSchool]

Would you say this video’s editing is over the top?

[@GMDpowerman11]

@GDCreatorSchool yes. Sometimes the editing feels a bit unnecessary and I feel like it's just there to look cool instead of actually being necessary. Of course, this is my opinion

[@BelastetGD]

I completely agree with you!

[@sebestein09]

I wonder if my style of levels is considered "interesting" and i don't need to resort to building generic levels

[@demon91gd2]

THIS CHANNEL ALWAYS HELPS 🔥 💯

[@ricogoins]

I have learned thank you creator school :)

[@velky_reeds]

generic creators with features watching this: 👁️👄👁️

[@SuperstarStudioGD]

I agree with this video. Most rated levels these days are boring as heck. The only levels that actually stand out to me are levels like Emerald Realm, White Space, 2.2 levels, even RobTop Styled levels, and even levels like Larga Espera. I rarely find any “good or fun” levels in the rewarded tab anymore.

[@iIiLunathiIi]

ill never forget what happened to me when i joined this server years ago 😭

[@falkeborg9432]

This is really helpful, and it’s only 2 minutes, wow.

[@Nightrex]

Waos, ya logre terminar de terminar mi nivel y viendolo ahora, no creo que sea tan llamativo xd pero a la mayoria de personas le ha gustado mi nivel

[@Glacko5669]

uhm My Deco Style is like Horror and Reddish Theme like Gore, is it allowed to rated?? but i do feature worthy deco too

[@denis-trh]

Could you make a video how to make your level feel faster

[@Niaomi101]

I'm just insanely insecure about my creating skills. I can't do good gameplay not good deco and I just feel like shit

[@DaKing08]

still waiting for how to use triggers effectively oh and can we learn what objects to use to make decor?

[@GDCreatorSchool]

We have a video called “How to use objects in Geometry Dash” which goes over the second topic ^^

[@DaKing08]

@@GDCreatorSchool as in examples of what objects can be used, like how and where do you find the objects you showcase in your vids as examples for what to do? maybe add a short addendum video to show some examples. the theory is pretty good but I would love to see how to apply our knowledge!

[@DaKing08]

@@GDCreatorSchool I’m just hoping that you can add more practical knowledge for when you’re creating the level (after things like ideation and preparation) maybe the trigger tutorial can have you in the editor!

[@GDCreatorSchool]

You won’t get good if you just get every object handed to you. You must learn the nuances of using them by yourself as you create.

[@GDCreatorSchool]

As for ideation and preparation, there is a guide in our Discord server which goes over the next steps.

[@Cringy_GD]

I just wanna know how to make a robtop style level :(

[@ShocooYT]

Hollow Knight music 😍 And thank you for those Amazing videos !

[@iVansTIKTOK]

How do I send a level to a mod?

[@Zejoant]

This just isnt true. Otherwise the featured tab wouldnt be filled with boring lookalike identical generic glow levels.

[@GDCreatorSchool]

As stated in the video: “this level doesn’t do anything particularly special, but a new player may find it to be interesting.” Different people may find different levels to be appealing which is why it’s important to define what makes your level appealing in the first place. And if Robtop didn’t find generic levels to have some appeal, he would’ve stopped rating them.

[@Zejoant]

@@GDCreatorSchool nah robtop just rates levels to keep the content coming for gd

[@GDCreatorSchool]

And how does he decide which levels should be rated?

[@Zejoant]

@@GDCreatorSchool playes 2 seconds of them and then rates if he is in the mood for it.

[@GDCreatorSchool]

So you therefore have a few seconds to convince Rob that your level is rate-worthy.. which means you need to have a selling point for your level. See what I mean?

[@kushioda8369]

What is the best time for shared my lvl ? ( Sorry for my English I'm french 🇫🇷❤️)

[@GDCreatorSchool]

I wouldn’t really say the release time matters too much. If you’re looking to drive up hype online/in social media then I would say to consider that for your release date/time

[@UnderCurrents15]

"You will want to hook robtop as much ch as possible" Have you every watched a robtop stream? He literally does like 10 attempts, gets halfway through the level, than gets bored, rates it and leaves.

[@GDCreatorSchool]

That means you have about 10 attempts’ worth of time to convince him that your level is worth rating

[@UnderCurrents15]

@@GDCreatorSchool True, but usually he is just like, "Eh, guess I will rate it" Instead of "Wow, this really needs rated!"

[@Bigz2006]

honestly I feel like people make too much out of creator points. most of the featured levels are not even that interesting and "eye catching". I have a featured level and it's just a boring ass glow level, so I don't think it's that hard to get a featured level as people make it sound. You just need to make something that feels complete and is decently appealing.
