50% impressed, 50% sorry for the pain I have caused... 😈

“So, the first thing I did was that I made a programming language” How dare you say that so casually

This is not a “how i made video”. This is a philosophical video about the value of art and content in an era where the suffering of creators isn’t real for the average person. This is a video about how a 1 minute stage in a mobile game stole 2 years from one of the most talented and creative people in the world. This is amazing.

Making a 4D cube in 3D sofrware to put it into a 2D game was realy a top of this video for me. Absolutly legendary

"I made my own programming language that turns the code into geometry dash triggers." WHAT

Spu7nix once said "But it's actually quite simple"

you know every once in a while, randomly scrolling through yt, you come across a real, honest to god jewel. A video that you wouldn't change a bit of, from start to finish, no matter how critical you are. Truly unquestionable feats of human ingenuity, a real, undeniable show of genius like this video + the context that brought it to existence not only leaves me speechless on awe and respect; A jewel like this gives me hope in humanity. This why I love our species to the death. And I am grateful. Thanks dude

"As if the limitations of the previous game were not what made your stuff interesting but what held it back" That is literally what i feel, i used to have a recreation of the arrow trigger but now its gone from a complicated level to just one object you can place.

Dude went from "so i made this level" that turned out to be insanely impressive to contemplating life

Just finished the video, my brain has officially been fugd.

The hypercube bit was when I lost it, I laughed so hard I was embarrassed someone would hear me. You are an inspiration to someone like me who only now starts his journey in learning all the technical aspects of art in video games. (Currently just run out of mill software engineer) That video alone will probably get you hired anywhere if you ever needed to. And it was a great fun watching it. Thank you for the inspiration, have some rest, and keep kicking ass.

15:54 look ma, I got in the video!

THANK YOU FOR NOT LAYING DOWN, CLOSING YOUR EYES, AND THINKING ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE FOR ONCE IN YOUR LIFE

I have never played Geometry Dash in my life, but this video was more compelling, interesting, and better structured than any TV show i've seen in years.

16:10 ..would just be a GINORMOUS WASTE OF T-

U know someone is smart when they don’t like ur programming language so they make one themselves

There will never be another WHAT. The limitations of Geometry Dash 2.1 is why it was so amazing. Now, things like what are coming out pretty much every other week.

This is so gaming The amount of in depth knowledge required to make this level is insane. That with your extreme commitment makes this truly something special. Really cool seeing your process here.

OMG, this is simply AMAZING. An artist will never be satisfied with his own work, but everyone else can look at it and tell from miles away it is a masterpiece. NEVER look at this project with regret, what you did is amazing. The end result is something out of this world, the way you ended everything was not rushed and you did not cut any cornes to make your vision come to life, and it did. You can always go back to it if you want but look at what you made: - You impressed a whole community, one made out of a lot of dedicated artists and amazingly talented people, not only any community - You learned a fucking ton about 3d Rendering, copilers, data structuring and more - You showed an amazing portifolio of, not only, how smart you are, but also how good you are at problem solving, any game engine's software engineer dreams he could have something so palpable to put on theirs CV, I would recommend you to any studio I work, this can literraly carry you into a high paying job, if you ever wish to go after it. - You put it all into a well paced, funny and really well edited video, documented your work and have it all in a easy to digest 25 minutes "document" - Aaaand... you made the game creator, the god of your community, apologize to you for the pain he caused xD... Spu7Nix, you accomplished so much, actually you inspired me to not give up on some projects im currently working on, and Im sure I'm not the only one. You are simply amazing, you impressed a fuck ton of people, hopefully you can see it and be proud of yourself! Cheers man, cheers!

I thought I was just going to watch a dumb video about game I played years ago, I didn’t expect to watch a 24 min masterpiece of a story full of drama, things I don’t understand and pure amazement. It’s like one of those random great documentaries about random things that turn out to be awesome. Like, applause to you for making my life better for 24 minutes.

My brother.. When you broke the mountains down into a script, I realized you could be the one to figure out time travel

Fun fuct: WHAT is released on 06.10.2023. Avogadro's number is 6*10^23.

This video brings me a lot of comfort right now. I just got done finishing a semester-long robotics project for my engineering class, but completely botched the demonstration, causing hundreds of hours of work to go unappreciated... Though you've shown me that I shouldn't wallow in regret from how I messed up, and I can just move on because I know I'm proud of my own work.

24:20 Poor guy didn't touch grass for 2 years Anyways, I hope you can rest well now dude, you really deserve it. Thanks for creating bangers for us

20% What 80% Spu7Nix thinking about life and one's choices, the value of time and fame, one's actions and consequences. And touching grass. Quality content as always, this is the definitive Geometry Dash creator experience right there.

20:58 "The funny thing about sleep schedules is--" As someone watching this at exactly 4:55am, this killed me

only veterans know the title was changed…. Btw spu7nix you are a straight up fucking goat for doing this gj bro!

loved the pacing and rythm of that video. You actually kind amade me understand things that are way over my level of physics comprehension

"it sure would be better if it was perfect" when he mentioned rust at the beginning i knew this would happen

the fact that the 2.2 gradient trigger can make a lot of these effects that previously in 2.11 required insane tactics to create is crazy

Thank you that you CONTINUED making this level❤

"it would be better if it was perfect" brings one of my favorite sayings to mind "don't let Perfect be the enemy of Good Enough."

23:33 "eventually the update will come out and people will expect you to make something even bigger as if the limitations of the previous update were somehow holding your stuff back and not what made it interesting in the first place" This is so beautifully worded and explains perfectly the concern I felt for you after 2.2 came out and I looked back at the level. It was just such a dreadful "...and now what?" feeling

im new in the community and i tought the story of geometry dash has ended, but im really suprised to see a mind blowing level that maybe change geometry dash forever, keep it up 👍🏻

My mind was blown and then you continued to blow up the fragments into oblivion

“And I don’t know sim-simulate some… BIRDS” The amount of panic, confusion, and desperation in this sentence is astounding

Made a programming language for making things easier.. Used math to make cubes twerk... And literally spent almost 3 years making it.. and finally grinded and quickly made the ending and quick polishing... Only for robtop to say "I,m impressed bro"

I am astonished. You are a wonderful funny genius. Great job. I feel really inspired and proud of you!

This is amazing. The fact that you created your own programming language to solve something that didn't exist for your endeavors. Genius. I hope your next project is just as cool. For now, take your time to touch that grass and take a much needed break. ❤

This was not time wasted. This was Pure Divinity

you made what?

that is not a normal "how i did" video. Bro just made sutch an incredible big project that he worked 2 years on, until he started questioning the sense of all this and his life just by building a geometry dash level. Thats fucking insane and somehow inspirational, thank you for this masterpeace

Wow that was really impressive to say the least !! And you’re not only good at making the level but also making the video to explain everything Enjoy your rest and I hope you’ll find a healthier way to enjoy your passion

I'm not even a GD player but this was an amazing video. .o. The level is one of the more technically impressive things I've ever seen in a game, the process was very interesting, even if I didn't fully understand it, and the reflection made me think about my own old projects that I never finished... Thankee. You've inspired me.

"and soon, this whole endeavor starts to feel more and more like just a series of frustrations you had, and have overcome. getting smaller as it gets further away from you." absolutely genius

I hope you’re doing ok man! No matter how brilliant that level was, you also need to take care of yourself! Take a well deserved rest and appreciate the fantastic project you created!

It takes a lot to make it. You have a very advanced perception. This level was so good that even I had to buy a good PC just for streaming it XD. But seriously, I think you are using very advanced concepts to make it and as a person who played GD for 9 years, I am very impressed with how you put things together. Keep it up :)

Bro thought he was veritasum for a second. You didn't make a video about your level, you made an entire documentary about geometrical figures and mathematics. This was worth it for the wait. Good job, you deserve yourself a break Sputnix!! 🎉❤🎉❤

1:33 BRO THIS TRANSITION 🥵🤩

Do the things what is the best value for your life. I mean, this one already mean for us, community, and ANYONE. You can rest or maybe continue it. Thanks for being alive! Great level and video!

Mann.. You have done a great job. I'm sorta in tears because of the impression you made. Maybe its just a geometry dash level and you have made fun of this fact for the entire video, but I think its more than that. You have used your physics, calculus, programming languages knowledge to make something. Something, that is eternal. And all the things you have done for this level - are you sure, that all that energy you have put is wasted? I think no. You managed to do something, that everyone thought is impossible. In other fields people get a Nobel prize for that. Yes, you haven't got the money but its not the only thing to measure succass. You have the appreciation. I have been really inspired by the people, that use science on practice. For many ones calculus and physics are just problems on paper, they don't actually feel the science. They don't actually imagine how the world is connected with itself. That all the mathematical and physical models are just special point of view on reality. And you did it. You managed something, that not every university is there to offer. Even if no one else understood the real enthusiastic effort you have made and you think, that this level is worthless piece of shit, just remember, that at least one person appreciated you(at least!!!). Not only your efforts, but you too. Like a person you have probably gone through horrible times during working of this project. Nothing is forgotten. No one is forgotten. You will be in my and other people hearts as the man, that did something enthusiastically and haven't dropped it as soon as the interest has gone away. Thank you!

I'm not lying. I am super sick currently watching this video. It was like 5am. I passed out and woke up having a hallucination and cold sweats of your level being apart of my room, seeing my pillows be the spiral effect and the cube jumping across my room wall. I soon passed out again and woke up several hours later. I don't know how to feel about this.

If he decided to quit Geometry Dash, I think he would probably get a good job as a NASA spacecraft designer. And when people asked him how much effort he puts into his job, he'll just say, "It's quite easy actually." What an absolute madlad.

dude, this inspired me to going on with my goals and projects, thank you so much and, of course I support rub, you're insane. Keep up

watching your old videos after watching this reminds me how chill you were

24:25 "what- what the hell is this?" Spu7nix, touching grass, -2023 or 24

I like how the majority (if not all) the video is written in 2nd person. Good writing

Dude I'm at 2 minutes into and I'm already sold off by the mere concept of how you hacked this thing. Respect!!

Cara, o tanto que esse vídeo me inspirou a voltar a estudar programação é brincadeira. Amei muito, vou voltar a estudar mais sobre isso ❤🎉

That ending is so heartfelt.... I truly have no idea what that green thing you touched is

not only a masterpiece of explanation, but story telling. One of my favorite videos of all time. Good luck with whatever you conqure next. Within gd, or without.

I'm just happy that cYsmix'ssongs might get some more attention off of this, really underrated creator

legitimately my fifth time rewatching this video. your artistic perception of video editing and storytelling is incredible.

23:30 "getting smaller as it gets further away" damn thats poetic as hell. edit: I know he said it at the start, thats why its poetic.

Thank goodness you wrote "I'm fine dw" in the description, cause by the end of the video, I was genuinely concerned that you might crack under the strain or whatever. 2.2 is gonna keep this game alive for 10 years, just take a break, man. Just gonna conclude, you got a godlike brain, don't ruin it due to stress. (also the video made me cry, great editing Spu7nix) Edit: wait most of my comments have only 4-5 liked how does this have so many? Ig many people agree with me, take care Spu7 ❤️

I actually sat down and watched this video for the first time, and it was beautiful. Never in my life have I seen such an unexpectedly powerful and philosophical piece of content revolving around a 2 dollar cube game. I'm sure the slow loss of sanity throughout the scripting resonated with people very deeply. We can't thank you enough for putting all of your energy into what you've done. No matter what video comes out this year, I don't think there will be anything to ever top this. I hope your mental health is better now, you deserve a massive break from your desperate efforts to push every limit everyone thought existed. (do you guys remember when i was mad at him for not releasing the evolution program? yeah...)

The way I've been dumbfounded mouth wide open for like 20 minutes straight. Thats crazy bro

That storytelling is on ANOTHER level, like if while designing this you went beyond human limits on everything. Great video, greatest level. Kinda scary even...

I just finished this video and this is probably my favorite gd video I’ve watched like…ever.

I can really relate to this video. I have Never played the game and I know nothing about programing but I think I have had these thoughts and feelings. This video is a masterpiece. It feels so honest and true. I hope I can achieve this with my art as well.

DAMN !! You're insane The effort and brain stroming to make that feel soo crazy Love the narrative and presentation in this video to keep me watch

24:20: *touching grass* Spu7nix: "Wait what the hell is this???"

"I'm fine dw" has never been as much of a relief as after watching this video You are INSANE and also a true inspiration to hundreds, if not thousands of creators!

beautiful from start to finish. holy hell man

Holy shit the EDITING and NARRATIVE of this is amazing!! Why aren’t you a director of a famous indie documentary by now??

This is the equivalent of Mumbo Jumbo saying this is Simple Redstone

23:34 I sometimes think of Tim Follin in this respect. He made stunning and amazing music for systems with some of the worst sound chips on earth because he was not only a great musician, but he worked great with the limitations of the time. After that was gone, he himself said that a large portion or what made composing for games fun was gone for him, and his new work just didn't seem that impressive anymore. Every person on ewrth is born with some kind of talent inate in them, but its only up to luck whether or not that talent is relevant to the world at that time. Maybe you can find a silver lining in this, knowing your potential main talent had a chance to be shown in the limelight for at least a momment, a lot of people can't say the same thing about themselves.

Brooo actually best youtube video of all time🔥🔥🔥

Wow I can't describe it with words. Wow. ❤❤❤ Bro trying to hypnotize us in the beggining

8:43 “still a few months away” I guess this video is also a few months late.

I’m witnessing this man go through the 5 stages of grief. Currently 5:21 in the video and I think he’s in the anger stage.

This is how beautiful a human is, it's a waste, it tooks a gigantic amount of effort, it's not very useful, but you dived in with both feet! Thank you for your sacrifice, it's a masterpiece, it was fantastic! You are limitless! ♥️

For some reason one of the greatest minds in human history decided to completely lose his sanity and spend all his cognitive capabilities on creating geometry dash levels.

i just want to mention that i LOVE how this video is structured. the way that you voice this video in an "exaggerated" manner, explaining every step of the process of creating the level, while you felt like your sanity was slowly being lost, made me feel quite uncomfortable while watching the video. it really hits when you return back to your regular voice at the conclusion of the video, when you're reflecting on the past two years of creating a geometry dash level. honestly, really well done.

Congratulations! You made me feel quite normal with my weird retro demoscene hobby spending months writing assembly language code for an obsolete computer to have an effect shown for 30 secs or so. This is really next level.

It's videos like these that rekindle my passion for programming.

I will never get tired of videos like this, because back in the day youd see so many people stop a project like this due to the difficulty, but these insane geniuses manage to bring up problem after problem, following it with “so I developed a programming language” or “so here’s the insane workaround I came up with that can never truly be explained to the average viewer”

19:33 - 21:30 probably my favorite part in any youtube video ever First of all, great song choice! It's intense, fast paced, and chaotic which matches the way you talk in that segment perfectly! It's also comedic with the small break in the middle about sleep schedules and the parts where you're like "I don't know lol." Also I can't IMAGINE the amount of retakes to do these voice lines, just explaining complicated code stuff at lightspeed is the funniest shit. Best GD video 2024!!!

You are an inspiration. This is absolutely nuts.

Can't wait to see your next project!

You know it’s crazy how the level is made when Sputnix’s voice goes into decent madness as the video goes on.

21:03 Ok the 4d shit came out of FUCKING NOWHERE.

I wish I could achieve at least half of that. And I really love to be a friend of you or of somebody with that genius (in case you don’t want that). I’m just going to subscribe for now.

you're mad, but you've earned my respect, I am definitly subscribing! And I hope you put your incredible dev skills to some otger great project!

this was kind of hard to watch this because of how bad this video game level was for your health. I never thought this was the course of events that went down while making this, and I have a whole new perspective on this level, or dimension you could say. sometimes it can be hard to remember that behind every level is a living breathing person with an entire life just like yours, and sometimes that level could have taken a huge toll on them. this video was extremely well made, even if it were just to rant to yourself on starting this project in the first place. I know this might also not mean a lot to you considering everything you said, but this level really did change people. this level was the single best thing ever made in 2.1, and more importantly it has inspired me and Millions of other people to keep creating, be creative, and push their limits on what they can achieve. it is completely understandable if you never make something of this magnitude ever again, after the thousands of hours and numerous programs and never-ending hardships you had with this level. I just hope you know that you Will go down in legend as one of geometry dash's greatest creators and biggest inspirations this game ever had, with the likes of funnygame. we all love you spu7nix, even if we all dont really know you, but youve done so much for us all. I hope with this level finally off your shoulders, and the 2.2 update finally out, you can finally rest and potentially have fun playing GD again. I wish you a good one sput, and amazing video 💚

This is genuinely the most impressive feat of programming and ingenuity I have ever seen in my whole life. Kudos

Bro finally touched grass at the end. besides that, fabulous job. I know there was so much extra work behind the scenes and it amazes me that you created such a thing, but really dude, don't go on geometry dash for a while, so need a break.

Wow, this video is impressive, you are impressive. All the amount of life you gave to the project is amazing. You are my inspiration, and I hope that you still making big things like this. Some day, in the future, I'll be making big things, like you, and I will ever remember this video of how powerful a human can be and all the things that can do. Thanks for sharing your process and let us know what kind of thoughts passed through your mind. You're amazing

What was looking like just a video about a process of creating a level turned into a video which describes real life horrors like pressure from public, pressure from lack of time, and regret. Greatest twist in history of a game about a square jumping over spikes

I think a lot of people in this scene can relate to feeling like more is expected of them because "the limitations of 2.1 have been removed" I know I've certainly felt like I have to make bigger and better things now just because 2.1 isn't limiting me anymore, but I think I agree with you on the idea that the limitations of 2.1 was what made a lot of things as cool as they were. in effect creating everyone would be so amazed with you when you made a convincing animation of something scaling or stretching, but now that those things are just inherent to the games editor it becomes less and less impressive I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing but with 2.2 here, this new expectation that everything you create must be a masterpiece in respect to the update that it was created in is something thats honestly really damaging to anyone who creates in this almost entirely new editor. really well made video, very excited to see what you do next- in this game or outside of it.
