Geometry Dash (also known as GD or GMD) is a rhythm-based platformer game developed and published by RobTop Games. It started being sold for $2.00 on August 13, 2013 and is a 2D platform game that involves dodging obstacles (spikes, walls, and creatures) in a series of levels. Players can create levels in the level editor, and play levels made by other players. There are many tools for creating levels, rings (commonly just called orbs) that let you jump mid air, pads that boost you up higher, and triggers that can allow people to include more complicated mechanics. Levels are also copyable, but stealing levels is against the TOS. To finish levels, they have to get through the whole level without dying. In every RobTop level, there are 3 secret coins which allow you to unlock the demon levels. Completing levels gives you stars and mana orbs. Map packs also give you secret coins. Mana orbs are like the in-game currency for a variety of shops. Moons are gotten from completing platformer levels, the newest addition in 2.2.

In Classic Mode, the player moves towards the right of the screen automatically, but in platformer mode, you can control your direction at will.

There are different transformation in which the GD Cube can turn into: Ship, Ball, UFO, Wave, Robot, Spider, and Swing. All of these transformations have their own GD level physics and move around differently.

Gameplay

The player either uses the keyboard, touch screen, controller, mouse, etc. to control the icon.

The ways to collect currency are by completing quests, lists and certain levels (daily, weekly, gauntlet) for diamonds, completing map packs and official levels for secret coins (or star rated levels for user coins) and star rated / official levels for stars (with platformer levels rewarding moons instead). Beating star rated levels will also grant mana orbs (a feature since 2.1).
