    Right now you can only move in the y axis.

    Not sure. I thought about it, but it would need some extra features to be fun. Also it would limit the amount of space you have as a ship etc. which can make it hard to build levels. But who knows :)

    A green jump pad would just crash you right into the ground, so it doesn't have any function beyond auto levels. Probably wont add it unless I find a more useful way to do it. (You can still create the same auto effect using portals and yellow jump pads)

    Default order is unchanged, so nothing should change in old levels. (This took some time since its a whole new system, but you should see pretty much no change in 1.9 levels)

    You can hide portals if you really really want to, but I don't think it will be a problem. Plus I can find secret ways even if they are hidden :)

    Sure I will check it out :)

    Could work, I will take a look!

    Hey RobTop, will you add a new difficulty beyond Demon? It's really necessary at this point to accommodate all these impossible levels. :D

    Hey RobTop what do you think about
    "Topalians"?
    It's an army name, for geo dash fans!

    I was thinking "Dragon" difficulty
    It's a blue dragon with red eyes and smoke coming from its nostrils. Just a thought :)

    Hey Robtop what about the "social" stuff?
    Will there be like a subscribe function that will allow you to see the newest levels from the people you are subscribed to? It may be hard to implement so I don't mind.

    And what about the possibility to make collabs (real collabs like the name of 2 people under the name of the level).

    thanks for your answer. any ideas regarding my problem with starting geometry dash? the problem started with a few crashes (1-4) and since then it increased and today it took like 50 tries until it worked. is it possible that it has something to do with my high stats? i just cant find an explanation...

    also, this started about 2 weeks ago. before that there were no problems at all...

    Haha sounds cool, the GD army will be unstoppable!

    It's not really that difficult to add, I just don't want to shift focus towards creating these impossible levels. Right now a lot of creators have the mindset "I have to create a Demon level". This would probably change to "I have to create x-difficulty level (dragon, hell, etc)". I want players to focus on creating good/fun levels more than impossible ones. But I may add something in the future :)

    You will be able to "follow" creators in 2.0. You then have a search option to find levels from creators that you follow. This will be expanded later, but its a simple system that works pretty well.

    I will try to design a collab system for the next patch. Will take some time but I think setting up a system where you can invite users to a collab and then build the level in turns will really help.

    Hmm not sure what would cause that. Do you have a lot of created levels? Do you see any part of the loading bar before it crashes?

    Hey robtop nice to see you more active on the forum :D
    I was wondering if you could change how the fade colour scroller works? The current one is kinda tedious because you have to scroll it to the exact point. I think buttons would be better, for example + to go from 1.0 to 1.1 and ++ to go from 1.0 to 2.0 :)
    And could you rate some of the levels on my list in the other forums? Would help a lot of unknown creators :)

    deleted all but 15 but that didnt make any difference. it crashes before the loading bar (i just see the blue screen with robtop). maybe 2.0 will just solve it but i fear that i wont be able to play anymore soon since its getting worse :/

    before that i had over 50 levels and many songs saved and it didnt even crash once. it just suddenly began and increased daily. restart, restore or reinstall doesnt work.

    Sweet! TOPLIANS UNITE! And you're talking about patches... With more content. Almost sounds like you don't want to add anything more to 2.0... As if ur almost finished.. Idk lol

    Expanding on the following artist thing, will their levels show up somewhere special when they create one? Like a sub page? Again idk lol

    Hey RobTop! Sorry for asking so many annoying questions, it's just that you're unusually active tonight and I want to seize this opportunity, before you fade away! :D

    Is Deadlocked going to be a demon? And if so, how many coins? :D I understand if you can't answer that... ;)

    Will add something to make it easier to control. Probably being able to manually enter the time instead.

    The only thing I can think of is that the savefile is very large. Does the loading problem only happen when you load you backed up data? If so, what is your account name? (I can do a few test with the same data)

    You can tag a search option that adds a filter to only include the creators you follow. You can then search anyway you want (most recent, most liked etc.). Searching for most recent levels by followed creators would give you a list that is the same as a sub page.

    Secrets secrets secrets... :)

    Wow RobTop, you're so active today! Just like the old days :D


    Last question before I'll let you rest from all the questions I'm asking :p. How will blue coins work? Will they have their own separate achievements, or will they count towards normal coins? :)

    Separate. Blue coins = user coins = separate achievements and rewards

    How will the blue coins count? Will you be able to add them in if you get a star rating?
    Btw thanks for being active, and answering so many questions!

    michigun is the account name. i dont load my data since i only play on one device. (so its always there)

    since im 2nd on the leaderboards my save file is probably very large and also i played a lot during the last two weeks so this might have caused it. but how to fix?

    By the way, RobTop, I saw a great suggestion on the other forum about wave compatible blocks. Do you think it's a good idea, or will it ruin the whole wave game mode? Sorry once again for bombarding you with question, I need some hype before the update. :D

    It must be stressful being a game developer and being asked to rate levels all the time, isn't it?

    P.S: Sorry for breaking my promise :(
