A lot of the copyright problems are already gone since a requirement for the song artists to be scouted first on Newgrounds. Players can't upload random songs and use them right away now. Now the real issue is just to make sure users don't try to upload copyrighted material, but I have added some things in 2.0 to make that more clear
For these levels it was probably more than that. I do a lot of design/art at the same time, but as the levels get more complex they also take longer. Specially when I add new game elements like the moving blocks, takes a bit of getting used to But it's hard to say since I never work exclusively on a level. I pretty much always program/fix bugs etc. and work on a level at the same time with breaks.
Hi RobTop, I want to ask some questions, they are NOT about 2.0 1. How many online levels have you beaten? 2. Is it okay to have your face as an emoticon in our forum 3. Why is Silent Clubstep not a demon? 4. Which programming language do you use? 5. Where do you get levels to feature? Thx
1. I have no idea Alot... 2. Haha, why would you want to? 3. Not sure, Demon status is usually removed because of secret routes, but I don't remember manually changing it. 4. C++ mostly 5. Different places. Tending tab, YouTube, Everyplay, Emails etc. etc.
Hello Robert, this is quite important, will my texture pack reset when 2.0 comes out because I've lost the original. Thank you
Unfortunately yes all texture packs will break in 2.0. The spritesheets look different now, so they wont work with the old ones :/ I do everything in the editor. Usually I block out the timing of the level based on the song, then I work on the design part.
Morning (evening for you..? ) Rob! I've been wondering, how do you choose a song to have the next update based around? Like recently, Waterflame & DJ-Nate have been the main composers, but now we have F-777 too - can we expect to see some new artists in later updates? I think some tracks by EnV would be amazing (especially his newest preview Dynasty, once it's released in full) . Have a great day! http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/624754
Hey Robtop. Geometry Dash totally stopped working for me now. i reinstalled everything again but that didnt make a change. i think it probably has do to something with the watchdog timer on iOS which gives the apps only a certain time to launch before it cancels the process. the launching time seemed to get longer and longer during the last weeks and the crashes increased in frequency, so i think this might be a very good explanation. it seems that my constantly growing save file now exceeded the limit and made it impossible for my device to launch in time. even though im using an iphone 6 with full functionality. it crashes after about 20 seconds on the blue screen with "robtop" which seems to be the set time limit from apple according to the information i found online. this also explains why only iOS users seem have this problem. is there anything you could do about this? make the app launch faster; or load some things ingame; or somehow make the save files smaller? i really want to continue playing...
