Oh, I forgot. Geometry Dash is a simple platforming game that involves a cube jumping to avoid obstacles.

The Cube
Step 1: The Barriers

Make sure that the barriers from the main one are going all the way to the end of the “Level”.
And make it so that you can’t jump at all, no wiggle room, and the same for the space between the space of the first and second barrier.

Step 2: The Tiles

This is probably the most important piece, as uhh… uhh…

what the skib

Okay, forget it. But this just makes it so that you know where to jump.
Get a Zone, and 2 Teleporters.
When player enters zone, broadcast message on Tile[number]
The tile number is the number of the tile (more on that later).
The zone goes in the place between the ground and the barrier.
Now, the teleporter. Make it teleport when receiving on, T[tile number].
Finally, the last teleporter. Make it receive on, TBack[TileNum].
And a bunch of triggers! yay twigger
Each trigger has a tile number on which they trigger on, and in those blocks…

The 14 is the tile number on which the trigger triggers. BAM
Wait…
Property Time!
Yay.

And the counting and tiles are done!

Step 3: The Jumping
Step 4: The Spikes

i have never played geometry dash before but i have an idea for spikes:

  1. add a barrier (rotate it)
  2. put the barrier halfway into the ground
  3. admire the fact that the gimkit forum finally auto-lists things when you have a list
  4. add a zone barely larger than the barrier and rotate it at the same angle as the barrier
  5. put the zone at the same area as the barrier, but make sure the zone still has some sticking out
  6. wire the zone to a respawn button or something (player enters zone → respawn or smth)

Step 5: THE END
Step 6: The Background (and other visuals)

WIP
Should I have worked more on this? I honestly don’t know.
Oh, I’ll do the jumping.

I don’t see a need to wiki this, sorry. Almost all of the guide can be completed by putting more effort into it. TUG is supposed to have a lot of information, but it doesn’t have a whole lot so far.

ok

Slim, I think he meant that he wanted other people to contribute, which would add more information and would require it being a wiki.

Yeah, that’s what I meant.

Okay, I’m reconsidering- and I’ll make it a wiki. I just really dislike a guide not having a whole lot of content and people want it a wiki. I really do like the concept of geometry dash in Gimkit, and I’m sorry I’m being a bit pushy here, but incomplete guides aren’t helpful to users seeking the concept.

Yeah no I’m aware and I understand, but I played the concept map for this (Toxic didn’t see me lol) and also he’s been around long enough to be trusted to manage this and finish the guide well, I think. I mean Toxic has been here a lot longer then me.

I get what you mean, and I kinda agree. But the only reason I want it to be a wiki is because I can’t like, make the backgrounds or spikes alone. Those things are not part of my skill set, but there are others that are.

bump, we need more infooooooooooo

I found a decent remake of GD on discovery, and the ship part of Stereo Madness made you go up a short bit when you jumped and automatically moved you down every second or so, how could we reproduce this?

first like on the original post :3

15

yeah, saw that game, it is just impressive, i actually dunno

Triggers.
We take a trigger, make it teleport you down to the next y level, which is done by triggers.
As it stands, if you stand still, seen by the fact that you’re in the same spot for a few triggers or so, then you can slowly go down.

17

Why not a slope from a high spot sliding down and zones represent spikes
while we check if you jump and use a camera point to emulate it.

18

That could work, except that zones are pretty memory consuming.

19

How about triggers instead?

20

Yeah.
Pretty much.
