They should be a togglable setting

There should be an option for reshaping nearly everything into circles. Also should be in the settings. Maybe called “More than Nine Circles” Just a joke setting. Also it just reverts the icons and buttons, not editor objects, if you’re wondering.

I would also like to add that you can add a function to the level search filter that, during operation, will issue levels with EXACTLY the same name that you entered. For example, if you write "blood" in the search, then you will get not bloodbath and bloodlust, but a level called "blood". Still, it would be possible to make a function to search for levels by the creator. This would be more convenient than logging into the person's account and then going to "my levels" . And one last little detail that pissed off my inner perfectionist. In achievements, the "60 demons" achievement comes after "40 demons" and before "50 demons. Aaaarrghhh

Also, being able to tie specific options together with it. For example, bounce out, only on the y movement instead of both x and y.

for the title screen i think it would be cool if you could have a button at the top to remove the buttons so you can just play with the icons on screen. could be similar to the megahack thing where you can press a button to hide the level complete screen to see an endscreen of a level better.

I think something cool to add to the editor would be to allow users to favorite certain items like blocks and triggers and put it in a favorites tab so we don't have to constantly switch tabs between items we know we'll be using

10:17 Deleting Generation Retro is the most based thing I've seen all day

The account registration menu is the best website design I've ever seen.

3:22 I actually think this could be a good setting so you could toggle between abbreviated and normal but i would also separate the 'normal' ones with dots so you dont have to count each one of the numbers to distinguish between millions, thousands, etc.

I would honestly add a select all type button that selects all of a specific item because to do this right now, you have to select the object, go into the delete tab and select only, and then pause the game and click select all. Very complicated

Great video! I genuinely don't get how you so consistently make these videos interesting, and I never disagree with anything you say because your takes are simply too based.

I genuinely think this man inspired A LOT of features in 2.2, the amount of stuff this man predicted is insane, and the few features that haven't been added to the game have been added by the community with mods, like the level thumbnail feature

I think the menu having only skins and colors your unlocked is amazing cause then it will give you ideas how to make your very own beautiful icon set :)

I always thought it was odd that the most often used button is not the big play button in the middle, but the creator button. I mean, when you think about gd, you don't think about the main levels, you think about the other tabs

well, it makes sense from a game design standpoint that the main levels would be the main focus of the menu, but yeah the fact that 99.9999998% of all levels in the game are in one tab is kinda strange

i think the idea of only icons you've unlocked showing up in the menu is a great suggestion! but on the other hand, i do think it is nice that newer players may discover an icon through the menu and go like "wow that looks so cool i want that!", although, your change to locked icons in the icon kit showing up partially would remedy that, but still, i think it could be a more interesting way to see new icons in the menu that way, it's nicer to see them in color and moving, as opposed to a grayscale thingy behind a lock symbol! maybe if you click on an icon you haven't unlocked in the menu it can show up in the icon kit telling you how to unlock it? e.g. i click on the "beat ToE2" icon in the menu, and then the lock that says "beat ToE2" now has that icon behind it! i think that'd be even cooler!!

I have one more idea for trigger boxes: So you know how if you select multiple types of triggers and try to edit them, another box pops up where you can only edit touch, spawn, or multi triggered. What if, a box for “target group id” is added there, so you can change the group that the trigger targets for multiple triggers at once? I’ve run into this problem a lot, and I think it would be quite helpful!

BTW, for the 3 extra buttons, 1st would be select menu, 2nd wil be extras in 2.2 and 3rd will be info and properties (only works when you select an object)

10:54 imo the touch trigger should also have a multi trigger option. It can be useful and all for the platformer levels feature in 2.2

this did *not* feel like a 12 minute video LOL. the long awaited yearly colon upload did not disappoint! i really enjoy watching you ramble about GD stuff, it’s probably what makes you one of my favourite GD content creators also, on the topic of info boxes, rob *really* needs to update the ones that just say “help text”. i feel like crying in a corner whenever i encounter one of those in the editor. also i’m glad the test went really well :)

I mean yes, I love the idea because it can start with a Basic Cube and Ship and as you move on and unlock more things the stuff you unlocked can be on the start menu and eventually you can start getting Wave,UFO,Ball,Robot,And Spider if you complete the levels that have those game modes. Like For Example: if you beat cycles Ball icons that you have (It will start with basic) will start popping up.

2:00 I think it would be cool to be able to change those individually, think of a wave using red and black but with an orange trail or something, it would be cool but maybe it could be a toggleable feature incase you don't want it If my name is not prince then I am a bot

I have another one: make 2 pages, one for the shops and one for vaults to make it easier for new players to find these locations. This would be especially helpful, since I remember seeing a cool icon when i first started, but it took literally 5 minutes to find the shop it was in. another neat feature would be to add the ability to sell icons that you have purchased from a shop for like 75% of what you bought it for

Out of all the menus that needed a overhaul, the settings definitely needs it the most. But as far as the video goes, I'd say I agree with all of the changes you proposed. Great video overall! Anyway, I think this video made me realise the potential you have to be part of Robtop's team that he said hes gonna make after 2.2. You constantly have great ideas and always have the community's best interest at heart, as you've proven with this video and the subzero video as well as your past projects like GD Browser. I know you've expressed numerous times your disinterest in becoming a moderator, but maybe being in this new team is different! Robtop could even pay you for it, making it a viable source of income, unlike being a mod which doesn't get paid (which tbh they should). You could become more involved in GD's development and make it easier for you to suggest changes that would make the game better. You've already made Robtop change the coins in Subzero, and I assume you are friends with Rob on discord and can contact him easily, so why not make it official? What do u think? :)

A seizure warning option needs to be in the game, accessibility is really important

For the level info stuff like clicking on downloads and likes and stuff to get more details I think I nice clean way to do it would be to make the text gold like the creator name Ik this isn’t consistent across the whole game bc of stuff like editor menus having random gold and white text but I think if gold text just universally meant that you can click it and get more info then that would be a good way to do it That way you could get rid of the info button entirely and just have the descriptions of some function or feature pop up when you click its name (if you really want to make it obvious you could give yellow text an underline like a hyperlink)

Idea: Stuff like the “tap lock for more info” and if added, an icon showing the level stats (downloads, likes, etc) should appear, then disappear after it’s tapped, showing that the player understands and shouldn’t be bothered by it anymore.

At 7:45 the actual YT like button got highlighted when he said that and I jumped a little lmao

version of the game when lvl was created is really good, it shows you some history and how the game and design evolved, like 1.9 and 2.0 have each distinct style of the levels

Since creating process have been evolved and more advanced from time to time, I feel like we deserved some more Quality of Life features, as a creator like myself it would makes life much easier and saves tons of hours of creating. I'm glad that we have stuff like Autobuild, Keyframe, Random Trigger, Advanced Scaling, etc in 2.2, so I hope this is just a start and we're going to have more useful tools later on.

Now that 2.2 is out, so many of these things that he gave ideas on were actually added in the update

for the title screen icons, would be funny if you could mess with them a lot, like spawn a grav portal or whatever, tho would be hard to implement
