Solid video! I always recommend people to focus on beating a lot of levels, and slowly working up, rather than jumping because you will end up spending just as much time on the level you wanted to jump to, but you beat lots more levels in the process, and at the same time evens out your skillset way more. Quantity of completions will make you overall significantly better, and lets you learn, and beat levels faster as a result. Good stuff :)

Definitely, I was going to jump from Acu to Sonic Wave but then I realized how many skillets I would be missing out on and all the levels I wouldn't be able to enjoy as a new hardest. Thank you! You are a huge inspiration to me!

as someone who mostly plays list demons, i really like your points about playing something you enjoy and also dropping levels. There is such a stigma surrounding the idea of dropping levels and it honestly doesn't make you any worse if you drop said level. You will not lose the prior experience you had playing that level so you will always get a small skillboost from playing something even if you do not beat it. Also so many players today give levels bad enjoyment ratings when it really isnt necessary. Unless your main goal is to clear the entire list or beat something "iconic" there is no reason to play a level you simply dont enjoy. Do not rely on the opinions of others, if you enjoy the level, give it a try!

These are wonderful tips! I'm not anywhere near beating an extreme demon, and I don't know that I ever will reach that point, but I do find my skill increasing as I play the game and a lot of these tips still apply to levels that I have played through. Sometimes, my determination to beat a level becomes more of my reason for playing than having fun. It makes me wonder I'm even playing if I'm not having fun. Practicing through levels that you actually enjoy is the better way to build skill, because then if you're still determined to beat a level that you don't enjoy, you can play it when your skill level is so much higher that it isn't as difficult.

going from acu to wasureta after dropping dark odyssey because it got REALLY boring. wasu felt absolutely impossible on my first day but im just now getting there. solid video man you made some great points
This has really helped, im jumping from extreme park to bloodbath, and I've been playing since April
God the enjoyment factor is what does it more than anything. Nine Circles took me over 2 years to beat, and then I beat Poltergeist in like a week and a half and I'm nearly done with Deadly Clubstep. I never want to play NC again, but I can definitely see myself coming back to the other two.
I just recently passed 30 demons, and I'm going for my first memory demon, these tips make a lot of sense but it's east to forget simple things like don't set time constraints in stone since it's such a natural habit. Hope to see more from you in the future!
I do everything mentioned in this video, and my hardest is Arctic lights, so i guess this is good advice lol. New sub!
Awesome work right here! I'm so bad playing hard demons but I want to improve when I get the opportunity to do live streams It would make my mentality more positive because now it sucks XD Such a good video tho, congrats! :)
for searching demons by tier you can also check GDDL (Geometry Dash Demon Ladder), which sorts all level in 35 tiers. There is 15 tiers for extremes, so it should be good (im a list helper here btw)

acu to list demons in 2 months is great, nice job!
Well there's this thing for me, that every time I grow up I get better... I was like 7 years old (2015) that time, and I was kinda bad at the game... And now 2022 I'm kinda better at the game...
Yo this video is so helpful what
I struggled with Acu for a long time (on 60hz mind you) and it ended up taking me 15000+ attempts and almost a year, but now that I'm on 240fps, I feel like I'm beating levels quicker than I should. I guess that's the mentality I built up, levels always take a long time and fluking almost never happens. (This was probably due to practicing the level sporadically and not having a good strategy or plan when starting). Just wanted to share my experience, but I love the video and hopefully I can beat Semicolon 3 very soon with these new tips!
Thanks for the video man ! I'm currently attempting my 4th insane demon (and maybe new hardest idk if Plasma Pulse is harder than Supersonic) and I really needed this !

not a bad video, its just for a new player like me who doesnt know how to apply these tips (yet so easily understandable) it makes it hard to not put time constraints and or expectations
Really really helpful and good video. The only thing I can criticise is telling people how to practice levels. I mean everyone who is starting an insane/extreme demon or something really hard in general probably knows the best way that they can practice levels because their experience. Good tips anyway for the people without much experience in to the game they can be really helpful. Other than that I pretty much agree with everything.The progression should be consistent not to big nor to small jumps that way it is much faster a lot less a lot more fun than jumping to top 10 from nine circles which quoter of the community wants to do right now.
most of these tips are already stuff i do, so it just supports my theory. playing a level from the end IS a good thing.
im sure this will be helpful!
Great vid but ill add more info because I can: Dont play if you dont feel like it maybe playing 30-60 mins a day or less may be better than playing 3 hours straight, also get good sleep. Dont focus in how much attemps other people did on the same level because you will pass a level with the attempts you need. Also if you are still on a difficulty below extreme demons, I recommend beating 5-6 levels of each difficulty with different skill sets to practice. Lastly, I recommend also checking the AREDL where u can see its top and the level itself its like a demonlist for all the levels. For example, I check many levels there and rn im looking for levels 50-100 tops above the last one I have beaten. For instance, I jumped from hypersonic #800 to draco meteor #710and now doing cat planet #590. That is how in 4 months I went from completing my first hard demon to completing 2 extreme demons. Hope this also helps UwU

If that's the only part you struggle with, you might just need some more practice with it. Most extremes are pretty unbalanced so some parts will take more practice than others. Good Luck either way!

good video
W vid, even tho I have the skill to beat list demons, Ive learned a lot :)
Ya know, one thing you mentioned that I think I forgot about was trying to find levels to improve a certain skill set. I think I got into a mentality of “if you beat x easy extremes you an beat medium extremes” etc, but that just isn’t the case. If I keep struggling with wave on harder levels, it’s probably because I have a stronger timing skill set than wave and should focus on it
I 100% agree with you. My main points are: 1.: It's all about enjoyibg the game. If you don't enjoy a level there's no shame in dropping it and you wouldn't believe how much easier enjoyment actually makes a level. 2.: Your mindset is the most important thing in this game. Don't get demotivated because something takes longer than you thought. Basically keep a healthy mindset that allows you to progress in the game, without feeling stressed, or unsatisfied with yourself. I always go by or at least try to go by these points and it has really helped me progressing in terms of skill. But as I said video games are all about enjoyment so there's no point in torturing yourself with hard levels. Cuz one thing I've also noticed is that some people just don't like them. And that's fine. If you don't like grinding hard levels then you shouldn't force yourself to do them. Idk if anyone even read all of my ramblings I just kind of wrote my thoughts down. Eccellent video btw loved it!

Cool video! One thing i just slightly disagree with is, how you say dropping levels is completely worth it. I think sticking with the level can really test, and strengthen your persevearence. However, all of my skill basically comes from jumps which is easier because im bad at dropping levels... So take this with a grain of salt

You're right, I just think at times when you really don't enjoy a level, dropping it isn't a bad idea. I don't want ppl to get stuck on a level I recommend and have a horrible time on it and be scared to drop it, if that makes sense. Perseverance is definitely a good mindset to have

I feel like I’ve dropped a lot of levels because of them being unfun, my main one being ouroboros, where I got 88 in a week and then dropped it for rust, and I enjoyed rust much more than ouro. But it’s also the case with easier extremes just being unfun so I really only try to play levels that I enjoy now since I think that beating a level just to beat it isn’t worth it It’s also kinda funny if I just have ouroboros 88 progress on my pointercrate account forever I also went from Acu to my first list demon in 3 months, and since have beaten 5 current list levels, 3 being main lists
