9:34 bro went from "nock em is completely beatable in 2.1" to doxxing robtop

I genuinely didn't know about a lot of these. I loved this video LOL

another useless fact: all buttons in geometry dash haves the bounce out effect when clicked. You can see it better when you hold a button

8:59 remember to do the colon reveal at 1M

"what would you do with time travel?" People: "I'd go to the past and undo past mistakes!" Others: "I'd go to the future to see what it's like!" Me: "I'd go to the year 2290 to see what happens when we reach 100,000 daily levels. Maybe 2.2 will be out by then, too!"

Colon: Here's some really useless GD information Also Colon: *proceeds to give useful Level Editor tips*

7:31 imagine if they continued with that difficulty scale and xstep would have probably been a demon 💀

2:15 This part has always bugged me because mixing two colors makes a singular color. You don't say orange is actually colored red because mixing red and yellow makes orange. So it's actually TINTED blue because the ORIGINAL color was yellow, which makes more sense.

Don't know why but I really like this "useless" information about GD, and I'd totally love to hear more about some more obscure stuff about GD that I or anyone else wouldn't know

I could watch Colon talk about “useless” GD info for an entire hour and not get bored. Keep up the great videos!

16:29 everybody wanna be a superstar

7:21 Electroman Adventures also had its difficulty changed, but that was in 1.7, unlike Back on Track through Cycles, which had their difficulties changed in 1.9. Electroman Adventures was re-rated from Harder to Insane in 1.7, making it the only official level to ever have its difficulty go up.

13:10 raises another useless question. If typing swear words on mobile is the only way to get the illegal hyphen character, then what swear words were used in the creation of the level "-sirius-"?

I just love the sheer level of how messed up the parental controls are in this game. Never change rob, never change

11:23 His most hated level Generation Retro

Dont forget the Colon reveal at 1 million subscribers

I don't even play geometry dash but somehow I'm here

13:17 you can also get hyphens in the name by typing the integer limit of 2147483647 and making a copy, as it will try to add one but just add a hyphen. You can continue making copies and it will just keep adding hyphens, and it can even go over the character limit. Would also like to add there are two rated levels (1. Beggining of Time and 2. PolarDream both by xDream) that somehow have periods in the name 14:28 the BPM option used to be used in older versions of the game that would show the bpm for the selected song (this was before custom songs, so I assume this was removed around 1.9?)

4:55 THIS HELPED ME GET MY ORIGINAL DATA BACK OML THANKS GD COLOGNE

For someone who's interested in programming and game design, these supposedly useless facts are the most interesting things there are. Would love more of this :D

Colon: “Once you have 100 shards it’s impossible to get more” Also Colon: Happens to have more than 100 ice and shadow shards

*10:50* By that logic, one demon is worth about 80 cents

"18 Minutes of Useless Geometry Dash Information" 2.8M people: *Yes*

13:49 How did Rob even thought about that? LMAO XD

1:15 I kinda subconsciously figured this one out just by playing a lot of easy demons, they give you 500 orbs total so 400 orbs for a 100% and 4 orbs per percent, which I would notice and then realize.

1:11 I noticed that while playing a 4 star level: I saw that the number of orbs I collected was equal to my percentage, so since the orbs I should have collected by the end of the level was 125, this way I would have collected only 100 orbs, therefore I theorised 1/5 of the orbs was kept for once you finish the level. Then, comparing that with other difficulties I realised I was correct

15:50 Thanks to you i have finally found a way to continue a level that i previusly lost all hope into finishing it

An extra fact I found while making a sort of texture pack: the gradient background that you see in the official level menus, the weekly demon menu background, and the the menu background all the same texture; it’s called GJ_GradientBG, and (I assume) the color of it is determined by code that tells the game what to color it. Without code telling the game what to color it, it’s just gray.

15:20 - Also if you use the text object (A) you'll be able to see the Start Pos texture when clicked My theory is that it's the broken Start Pos block that was removed but I could be wrong

14:27 in earlier versions of the game there were two guideline types and this button was used to disable/enable the blue ones

The definition for rewatchability is GD Colon, I have seen this video and many others too many times to count and I never get bored

0:54 what?! Google play being unfair?! (there are a lot of games that promise a lot of ultra broken benefits for rating, and rating gives nothing, and a Free Dragon Ball Z viewer said that if you rate less than 5 stars something bad will happen to you XD)

10:36 dude i completely feel this, i have 430 keys and a singular chest that i cannot open

this went from "useless" to "Oh my god thank you holy shit I never knew about that and I need to use that"

I needed this. Keep up the awesome videos!

Colon is the only person I could listen to while he talks about useless gd information

16:21 caught me off guard lmao

14:57 bro looks like an onion ring 💀

your videos are extremely rewatchable and that's something i like about them

When I first saw this video, I initially didn't know the unregistered player text color was blue, or how orbs work, the fact that the spiders in the menu are the same as the one you currently use, or any of that, so it's not fully useless...

one more fact: the mini icon depends if you have default mini icon on the menu edit: i have another one : every 500 mana orbs you get, you get a demon key

I've been playing since 2013 and didn't know a ton of this stuff, awesome video :)

i just found your gd site and i am so thankful that i found it bc i really wanted to find a place where i could see all of the demons ive beaten.

Colon: I made a short on this that goes into more detail Me: SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY

A fact that you didnt mention is that you can re sync a song to a level by pausing and then continuing. This is really usefull for playing on crappy devices due to lag slowing down the level but not the song.

16:00 this is actually insane and i hope rob doesnt patch this

I never expected to say this, but this video made me love math more than my math teacher could possibly do.

I always watch this video when im bored and makes me good after i finish this video. Great job colon

9:42 no wonder 2.2 hasn't come out yet bro's busy getting them gains

Dude you forgot to mention that all newly rated demons are hard demon when rated, and the community changes them

Gd loves Colon so much they didn't even censor his name. Love the content dude.

15:25 i was looking for that for months lol

16:16 Kris and susie doing the funny meme

fun fact: the background on the main menu is the background of the most recent level you played! (figured it out myself)

The fact that the icon select menu is called the garage in the game files gave me a huge throwback to crash drive games

I think the icon editor is called "the garage" because icons are also known as vehicles, so it would make sense to work on vehicle customizations in the garage.

Man all of this guy's vids are too tier good in both editing and humor

*"and heres his ip address"* *104.2-*

The editor moving buttons is actually really useful thx

17:18 you can play demons in world by putting the level in a folder in the main game, then saving and loading your account data

More useless things: Before Update 1.4, the ship was only one color. When you unlock a color before 2.0, the color graphic on the achievement unlocked notification window was a square instead of a circle. Also before the same update, the achievement unlocked notification window effect was different. You can expand a gamemode's boundaries by spamming the same portal over and over. The Options menu is different depending on the version you are playing. If you are on mobile, a "Record Replays" option is shown, but in the Steam version, it is replaced with a graphics option. Speaking of replays, you can't see your replays since Everyplay, the recorder, is discontinued, but if you disable Wi-Fi, it will be shown. Before Update 1.9, Electroman Adventures was a Harder level instead of an Insane level. The Music and Sound Options were changed in a few updates. In 1.0 and 1.1, they were Music note and Speaker buttons that toggle the audio on or off. From 1.2 to 1.9, they were check boxes that said "Music" and "SFX". In 2.0 and beyond, the check boxes were replaced with sliders. The original music and sound buttons in the 1.0 update however, are still in the game's files. The BPM button however, IS USED, but until update 1.8 which was replaced by the play test option.

I got a cologne ad on gd cologne

Did you know that you get from beating Stereo Madness, Back on Track, Polargeist, Dry Out and Base after Base together the same amount of Stars and Orbs as for beating Deadlocked

To be honest that was really interesting. GD has been a big part of my life and you’ve been the first KZfaqr I actually enjoyed watching, and that really pushed that to the maximum level. Hearing about "useless" information about Geometry Dash is actually really fun and entertaining. Hopefully you do this more often

For #1, I could see how the daily level and actual daily level have different percentages and you can gain stars from both. It would make sense if gauntlets did something similar too.

Colon. THANK YOU SO MUCHHHHHHU. I couldn’t comment or upload levels for months since I didn’t know about the refresh login thing. THANK YOU. THANK RKYOU THANKD OYUO

the normal face in the thumbnail hits different now

15:37 He admitted that something was useful lmao Srsly tho good video!

While gaining stars by beating a level, the text in the top right corner that shows how many stars you have will pulse lighter and darker. this is not really seen cause it barely even pulses. not sure why robtop added this function

Also love your narrative, keep it going

11:55 it’s called a dev exit in the smm community

9:47 I have that exact lamp. In my room. I’m in my room. It’s next to me. It’s freaking me out.

2:49 I have actually used 1000-1012 before (except for 1008 because that’s an NA channel) and still do so today. And I learned not to use Lighter (1012) as an object’s main color so I wouldn’t freeze my game playing the level. That’s fun. Also, this is a really interesting bit of info.

This is actually really cool and infomative!

i'd love to see an addendum to this video after 2.2, especially with how facts changed due to the update, but also some new specific facts from it too!

The amount of knowledge you possess is simply incredible

GD Colon: *gives us useless info* Schools: look at what they need to mimic a fraction of our uselessnes

oh one thing about the save thing, at around 63mb you just no longer can launch the game, happened to me and lost basically all my levels and progress thanks to that

14:27 I found out that this BPM button got used on older versions of the game (1.0 for example), it has the same function as guidelines but for the BPM of the song.

17:30 R.I.P. TECHNOBLADE 🐷 👑

4:30 this is actually important as hell. I have so many levels on mobile so I lost my ability to save data and had to make a completely new account when i got the game in

7:58 remembering this because i wanna beat every level in this list

Instructions unclear, have been using the movement unit tip as building advice ever since i saw this video. Thank you Geometry Colony Ogne.

11:43 From now on, I will never unhear that.

*For those just wanting to know about 2.2, here ya go* - 2:39

Also, in 2.2. If you go to treasure room slash indicating number of chests you opened will be separated with space but once you go into a chest group and go back it will no longer be. However, once you go into treasure room again after leaving it will be separated again

Bro knows everything about robtop

Wow! all of this info was so useless. thank you colon! (i have definitely seen the video)

*13:39* The best part of this is that “shit” isn’t censored

The voice in Blast Processing sounds like it's saying "Get ready for a lot of fun, ready for you with it."

6:27 ORIGINAL GD PLATFORMER!!

10:49 So that means I currently have exactly $2,333.33 USD worth of mana orbs on my account. Wow, I’m rich.

14:14 Stanley went around typing everything little thing into the code input. But it didn't make a difference, not did it advance the story in any way.

3:41 subtitles typo

11:40 I always thought it was “get ready Neil Armstrong, let it strike!”

13:24 there is also a level called - grindfury - (insane demon I think) Edit: i had to move the hyphens because yt changes them if they are directly next to the text

12:57 that's also the reason why the IDs of online levels start at 128 instead of 1, as 1-127 are reserved for use by the main levels if an online level were to be rated and have the same ID as one of the main levels the rewards for completing them would be broken and the online level would show up as being na and with the stars having already been gained found that out when we were setting up helix gdps, we had to move a bunch of levels around cause of that LOL

4:19 this is useful, now I finally know how to get chests again.

The outdated password one actually helped me thx

A note on the blast processing lyrics anyone following Waterflame (the artist) will know he quite often includes old sounding audio. The same can be said for Atom sampler (in the Vast album) which he uses old sounding seemingly educational video while during Dance Off (also in vast) briefly includes the phrase "and now on today's program". I don't know where the original audio for these come from but thought it was interesting anyway.
