Why Did Geometry Dash 2.2 Take So Long?
Ойындар
In this video, I talked about Geometry Dash 2.2 - the infamous update that took seven years (7!!) to release. Let's hope Geometry Dash 2.11 or Geometry Dash 2.3 don't take as long...

This sort of thing happens with a lot of games, when you're making a game it's SO easy to add smth that you think will take you only a day or 2, but it *always* takes longer than you think, whether its due to bugs, balancing, or just it being difficult to implement. In a lot of these cases, games end up abandoned or release as a buggy mess so I'm grateful that Robtop managed to fix (most) major bugs and get the update out, even if it took so long.

2:10 robtop took that words literally
• Pretty sure 2.2 wasn’t accidentally leaked, Rob just used the latest build as a base to update the spinoffs and didn’t care • Most of the icons weren’t included in the GD Lite “leak”. None of the cubes were, which was likely intentional • Never saw anyone complain that Explorers is unsynced, played it myself and it’s great • iOS 17 wasn’t the only version to break GD, iOS 15 did too (for some reason 16 worked) • RobTop never “lied” about the release date

14:00 this was a good idea cus when I got GD on my pc (never had full ver. In mobile) I didn’t even know I bought the game on the 2.2 release date xD
Maybe because he had to make the icon trail as well as the glow work for over 700 brand new icons, design blocks for a WHOLE NEW TAB in the editor with about as many pages as the block tab, add a platformer mode, a new orb, the ability to make any of the orbs reverse you, make sure that the arrow trigger didn't break the game, 5 new levels, 2 new game modes, lists, like 6 new shard types, a flipping battle pass, the best flipping icon in the game ship 150, realistic* ice physics, grip slopes, gravity triggers, a new customizable particle block, 2 NEW SHOPS, A BRAND NEW CURRENCY AND A NEW COLLECTABLE, and make sure none of that broke the game, wow! I wonder why it took so long! It's a mystery
Wait I had to come back to your videos and say how underrated you are! Just looking at your editing makes my cry man. ❤
good vid keep the hard work up!!
this is why you do 1 to 3 teasers and don't show literally everything before hand so you don't have to make more

Great video, but dude- chill on the editing. The amount of sound effects and filters and nonstop movement gives me a headache.
nice vid keep it up bro
the way how rob announced it just like "check steam" made it way more funnier
the time when 2.2 was being worked on, i didnt have the full ver of gd but i was still hyped for it
nice vid! keep it up!!
4:16 got me flabbergasted. It really take my by surprise to see my artwork here Very cool video nonetheless.
Freaking love this guys videos
14:46 I remember getting pined on discord when 2.2 dropped and I immediately went on steam
dude the day 2.2 came out before i noticed i was just chillin and then i saw the everyone check steam AND in that moment i couldnt belive it
1:22 Ah yes, my favourite Hinkik song - "Exploreres"

It def felt a bit goofy as someone who hasn't played GD since 2014, coming back and seeing like 2 new levels (Fingerdash and Dash) and that's about it.I remember a shit ton of levels coming out back when I played, like Electroman, Clubstep, Hexagon Force etc
Man GD content creators are some ELITE people, their content always so amazing, love the vid bro
I’m on mobile and still haven’t updated to iOS 17 but since 2.2 is out can I now update it to iOS 17?
*2.2 comes* aah here we go again 💙

Rob top's first ever level *already* featured the ship gamemode and plenty of decoration which impossible game was completing void of...
Another day, another banger!

I cant wait to play versus mode with my grandchildren in 2.21 😄
10 years might be a long wait for us but we don't know when it will (2.3) come, if 2.2 takes so long.
Dude, why did u put the little alchemy logo in ur vid at 14:20?
12:49 it’s a good year we have versus mode and explorers version 2
What do you use for editing i love it and i need to know how
Even round a month later and I still haven’t comprehend fully that 2.2 is out

Still tryna figure out how to unlock sex in geometry dash. Ill get there soon, righy?

Yoo almost 100k!
Being a solo developer makes sense and 6YEARS sheeesh, also what level name was that in 0:24 ???
what are those levels in the bg? besides explorers
I love how one time I logged in and it says you waited how much for this update???
The update was sent to the Appstore on the 18th december last year. So basicslly the update dropped on the 18th which was my birthday. There couldn't be a better present
Great video! And uh the description says 2.11 not 2.21, sorry about that
I’m pretty new to geometry dash and at first I had no idea what 2.2 even meant until recently . Im glad I started playing gd
the end sounds like my headpones disconnected and its playing through my speakers
