Theres been a ton of arguments in the comments over my opinion in the video and I think a lot of it was caused by the previous thumbnail and title. Hopefully now people can view the video with an open mind, sorry to anyone I upset. Also the dislike mod makes this vids ratio look far worse then it is, at the time of typing this the video has 1058 dislikes, still a lot more then usual but not nearly as much as the faulty youtube dislike mod says. I WILL MAKE MORE 2.2 VIDEOS SOON... Let me know what you think of the video and if this gets 10K likes I'll upload an uncensored rage compilation to matmartmore :O
I don't understand most of these criticisms. It really feels like you expected a godlike masterpiece, a Picasso of platforming to come out, when he's trying something completely new and different to geometry dash. I've never been a fan of the base game and this update is what it took to make me start enjoying the game. It brings a new perspective to the game and brings more people to the community, it's new. Dash, sure you can say it feels rushed considering the quality dip from start to end, but with the tower it feels really fun and high quality in my opinion and I hope to see it get even better.
I really don’t think the latter part of Dash is that bad. A major worry people had upon seeing the trailer was that the level would be impossible to sight read, but it introduces a medley of 2.2 gimmicks in a very digestible way. Though it could be more creative with decoration and gameplay, it’s better this way than to leave players feeling overwhelmed. The ball part and buildup part for example is very barebones in terms of gameplay, but that’s because most players are not used to going ⬆️⬇️↩️⤵️↔️🔃 while playing a level.
Yeah the players are not used to it and robtop gives the player like zero time to get used to it and expects they already know it... which you know... isn't the MOST fair.
@vanessa5552806 The level is pretty damn fair, it gives a good amount of time to look at where your going even with the camera changing. Except for that one spider part. The coins are bs after the first one tho
I personally really like dash. It’s a good introduction level. It’s not trying anything too crazy but it really doesn’t need to be. The fan made versions of dash are cool to look at but they don’t feel like base game levels, they feel like a fan made level. Not a bad thing but for a level to introduce the basics of this update, I say robtop did a good job. I do agree though that the start of the level is a bit meh.
you're complaining about the most unreasonable things ever 😭 almost everything you mentioned are fine and literally no other reasonable human being has any issues with it
I agree. It feels like MatMart’s overly high expectations weren’t met and that he just wants to bring up any little bad thing about 2.2 because of it. I really love his content but this video is just terrible honestly.
Some parts of electrodynamix are maybe fun but *DAMN* the rest of the level is mediocre to straight up bad. -oh and i will use this opportunity to complain about its 71% transition, that is quite possibly the worst transition in any official level.
@@Detoox21Deadlocked mini wave to the last ship (i didn't remember percentage) is probably worst. Wave to ship is just a bad transtion, but mini wave to normal ship? It's even worse.
I really don’t get why people don’t like the spider part where you walk on the wall sideways. It’s literally two clicks and not even hard to sight read imo
It’s called ‘’introducing new mechanics’’ Excluding the dogshit spider part around 7-8%, this level is meant to INTRODUCE us to 2.2. Man expected some kind of 200k object masterpiece to introduce us to how 2.2 works 💀
as someone who grew up on the Papa Louie platformers, I love the Tower levels, the boss fight ones in particular. When you grow up with stuff like this, you appreciate the difficulty of the boss fights and having to do them from the start every time you die. That's not a flaw with the level, it's literally just how boss fights work.
5:52 As somebody who completed all coins in all the tower levels, yes it's a hell to do that. (The actual boss was easier than the mini boss at level two for me...)
I dont think there is any reason to hate on Dash because, afterall, its an official level, so its made only to show us what is possible to do with the new features If you think the deco is empty, compare it to polargeist, wich one is better? See? The deco is, also, just an example of what we can do with the new features
@@WhirlwindSonic yeah. Comparing Polargeist to Dash is so ridiculous. Polargeist is just empty simply because it's not like he could've added more air deco at the time of the level being made.
In my opinion, Dash is really good overall, sure it feels rushed but it still a really nice way to introduce new mechanics without filling the place with details.Also, THEY SHOWED US THE WHOLE HARD PART so we dont have to sightread anything!
dash just introduces mechanics. look at all the other levels which give you active tutorials, and teaches you how to play. now look at the beginning of dash where they just introduce lever and spider. dash is there just to showcase mechanics, not to be a level.
I'm sorry to say MatMart but this video was not very good. It just felt like you wanted to hate this update for some reason and just only dug into the bottom of the barrel for anything remotely half-decent. Dash is fine and the tower levels are all masterpieces if there's not enough sfx for you then make a game yourself
Platformer Mode having Practice Mode just kills the essence of the game mode. You are supposed to play a Plat. Level blind, and you are given free will to move and jump anywhere (plus Checkpoint object), unlike the default autoscroller where you can't go backwards and you start back at 0 when you die, giving you little room for errors. Also, Plat. Extreme Demons are only annoying to get through if they are designed like "I Wanna Be The Guy". Seriously, I feel like the creator was like "What if I don't apply game design 101 and solely rely on tight jumps and hitbox abuse since it's Geometry Dash and isn't any game like Celeste or Hollow Knight?"
I think you're disregarding the amount of unique levels that can come from platformer mode. Sure, there are and probably will be many platformer levels that wouldn't need a practice mode; but there will also be levels that focus more on platforming skill and being like GD and would greatly benefit from practice mode. Platformer doesn't need to just be Celeste or just be Geometry Dash; both types of levels can co-exist, and having an option for practice mode would just benefit those levels that focus more on raw platforming skill and being GD.
@@Siggator1 But it's a double edged sword. Sure, it will make Extremes a little less time to complete, but it will make a lot of levels TOO EASY. Not only do you have control of where to go and jump anytime and anywhere, but you also have Practice Mode along with the Checkpoint object within those levels. Easy and Medium Demon Platformer levels are already way too easy. I beat Forsaken City in under 20 minutes despite me taking 5-7 days just to beat 1 Easy Demon. I also beat Shiftleaf Temple and City Side (GDSide) in a single day, and it only took me an hour to do that. I am not even skilled enough to beat an Easy Demon in a single day, let that sink in.
Dash not only declines in quality as you go on but also in difficulty in my opinion. Luckily, i had learnt the first part of dash on the gdps, otherwise it would take me a lot of time to learn
3:54 as the guy that holds the Mobile World record for the speed run of the level, I can confirm that this part was a huge choke point and is what ruined my runs many times
So there actually IS a way to get practice mode in platformer, you can activate it using a controller. Pressing the button that would normally enable practice mode will enable it on platformer for some reason. I know that was not intended at all but I found that out pretty quick. It only works when you activate it using a controller though.
I was thinking about skipping cutscenes and I made a set of triggers that does so upon tapping the screen twice. I'd be happy to share with anyone who wants it for their levels :)
@unanimouslyhated5890 @@forget1486 Like I said, it's confusing. I think everyone knows that. But the timings are easy, something you'd find in maybe a hard difficulty level.
robtop doesnt intend to make levels like top gd creators, they all mainly introduce something, or show more pieces to the gd's official lore like his platformer lvls
I think the hate for the new robtop levels is really undeserved. I love this update. The platformer is awesome. All the new levels are sick, and swingcopter feels really fresh and a great change from the old gamemodes we've had for the past 8 years.
5:09 Not "for some reason". Platformer games don't have a "Practice mode" because that just kills the essence of the platformer games. A blind level, but it's the same every time you die without any RNG thing (you can do rng gp in platformers but it needs to be good and not just "rng cuz funi") You just have a several skill issue
5:14 there is actually a bug that lets you use practice mode in platformer, if you plug in a controller and press the controller bind for practice mode it will restart you from the start of the level with practice mode enabled.
4:10 huge issue with what you are saying, the speedrun coins are really generous as long as you don't die. 5:16 Platformer skill issue. Do you really need extra checkpoints? Btw, I do agree that the secret hollow boss is absolute garbage. Too much rng
"Platformer skill issue"?? that doesn't make any sense is needing practice mode or startpos to beat extreme demons also a skill issue? regardless, robtop has already said that practice mode in platformer will be a thing, so whatever.
MatMart when RobTop doesn't make the most godlike white space kind of level while he was actually focusing on making the editor additions not absolute garbage (MatMart doesn't give a shit about priorities in game developing and only cares about the levels when the update's focus wasn't even the levels at all)
Dude I feel bad for Rob the only thing that He needs is a development team and the update will be able to come out faster and cleaner. but at least 2.2 is out
Also like.. the levels look "mid" ? You do realize right that robtop made every single asset from scratch? That takes equal amount if not more work than any of the masterpieces that you are thinking about You're actually just taking it for granted that it takes robtop the same amount of work to make a level as someone with a premade level editor. Robtop is coding the physics, the particles, the effects, the camera, creating every asset from scratch, doing the pixel art, and on top of everything he polishes his levels to a really high degree.
I personally think the precise jump into the door while it's opening is pretty cool honestly. Also, platformer mode is getting checkpoints in the next bugfix update. I found it really funny when you said "Now segregation is canon to Geometry Dash".
True. I’ll rather have good gameplay and decent decoration over anything. At the end of the day, the gameplay matters the most. Featured level nowadays are so deco heavy that it’s annoying to play most of them.
video great and i am glad we hit something like this video because most YT are just saying the update is “Great” “the best ever” (which it is the best ever) but no one is actually giving feedback and no one is being “real”
Personally, the Cellar was my least favorite level just because of the lack of checkpoints in the first part. I get why it doesn't have any checkpoints but for me it felt unbalanced and rather stupid
@@gdmathguythe gameplay is interesting and unique but the part where its just a stack of moving slabs was annoying in my opinion. Don't be rude because I simply have my own opinion, if you don't like it you can just ignore it like a normal person
Yep, it's Fingerdash all over again I remember one time some dude put Fingerdash in F tier because it wasn't as good as user created levels and he used Ultra Violence and Dark Odyssey as actual examples
One thing i'm just worried about is how the dificulty curves in the tower. The Tower is the game's introduction of the Platformer mode, and while the start of it is easy to pick up for beginners, there are some parts where it seems like the difficulty suddenly spikes upwards to new players (for example, the "boss fight" in The Sewers). While they aren't too hard, they take quite a bit of practice for some players, or are just a forever standing obstacle they will never be able to pass. While the difficulty of the levels are one thing, I'm more worried about how that might affect the first impressions of Platformer mode shown to new players. Also, another problem is just how horrendous it is to play Platformer on mobile. You could argue "just play on a different device", but you have to remember that a majority of Geometry Dash players play on mobile devices. On mobile, the icon is controlled by two arrow buttons on the side, and the other hand is meant to be used for jumping/tapping actions. However, with both arrows in the same corner (they're also quite small), it's a bit hard to manuever around some of the obstacles and you'll sometimes just straight up go the wrong way on accident. This, combined with the difficulty of some parts, can possibly cause players to believe that Platformer mode is a terrible addition.
people saying "i waited 6 years for this?" is like dumb coding is hard in general and making a whole game editor is hard and making designs, levels, objects, server changing, etc is very very hard for a single developer people only say the update was shit is only saying that because the have been fed by other games with an actual dev team
my response: 0:30 literally nobody says that, and i also disagree 1:20 i agree with that, but it gets followed up by the best spider buildup ever 1:34 the dash orb is just great 1:41 best part of the level, i love the massive buildup 1:56 WADDAYA MEEEEEAN? ok i sorta agree, but the ship going waay up is just so satisfying somehow 2:10 another amazing part, i agree 2:20 NAWWWWWWWWWWW 3:33 french laugh. 3:41 how did you think that??? 4:26 i wish that guy would come back 5:42 welll you cant blame him... the servers were barely ready yet 5:56 rattledash! i shore hope nothing happens to him!!! 6:00 yep 7:09 ohh yeahh the best level 7:36 there is also an amogus sound 7:57 why you say it like that? 🤨 8:19 in good, there's evil. in evil, there's good. balance, pure good, then there's this b- 8:28 if it was fair, this bossfight would be a million times easier. like, to the point that it would be easier than back on track. yeah thats all. i have no life
6:21 actually maybe he could do it like deltarune did, if you're fast enough or access a secret beforehand or somethn you then get the option to skip the cutscene
1 thing about the criticism in Dash's boring ship and robot is that i can agree, but it feels like it was meant to be like this because now those to gamemode have COMPLETELY new physics, and you can tell how much heavy it feels. so altough i could agree with the boring part, if it wasn't, it would be a bit too much when gave it with the new physics -blue coins in the tower: i would disagree, 1st blue coin is just there to make you know there's gonna be blue coins, 2nd coin is hinted by glow and 3 one has a second platform below the other one. their all hinted pretty well (glow one is debatable) i can see people complaing about the blue coins being hided on the walls, most of them just having slight changes, but you can tell some of them are good, they are hinted well and sometimes have difficulty on 'em

@unanimouslyhated5890 @@forget1486 Like I said, it's confusing. I think everyone knows that. But the timings are easy, something you'd find in maybe a hard difficulty level.
robtop doesnt intend to make levels like top gd creators, they all mainly introduce something, or show more pieces to the gd's official lore like his platformer lvls
What is blud yapping about just enjoy the update 😭
I think the hate for the new robtop levels is really undeserved. I love this update. The platformer is awesome. All the new levels are sick, and swingcopter feels really fresh and a great change from the old gamemodes we've had for the past 8 years.

Not "for some reason". Platformer games don't have a "Practice mode" because that just kills the essence of the platformer games. A blind level, but it's the same every time you die without any RNG thing (you can do rng gp in platformers but it needs to be good and not just "rng cuz funi")
You just have a several skill issue
i mean robtop disagrees with you because hes adding platformer practice mode in 2.21 but okay
“Now I’m the one in the cage” HOW THE TABLES HAVE TURNED
Bro just wasted 7 years waiting only to say its bad
fr next update he’s gonna lose his marbles
to be fair, its a first for Rob too
im honestly happy, the levels in my opinion are awesome and tho not perfect, they still do what was intended
5:14 there is actually a bug that lets you use practice mode in platformer, if you plug in a controller and press the controller bind for practice mode it will restart you from the start of the level with practice mode enabled.
Did you literally complain about the platforms not making sound when moving when they LITERALLY sync to the music?
The music that the platforms was syncing to isn't in the actual level. He just used it as background music.
@@Zurted I’m talking about the actual soundtrack though in the real level, I wasn’t talking about the music used in the video.
I personally really liked all of the new levels and had a lot of fun with them
Really funny video editing though. Loved it
4:10 huge issue with what you are saying, the speedrun coins are really generous as long as you don't die.
5:16 Platformer skill issue. Do you really need extra checkpoints?
Btw, I do agree that the secret hollow boss is absolute garbage. Too much rng
"Platformer skill issue"??
that doesn't make any sense
is needing practice mode or startpos to beat extreme demons also a skill issue?
regardless, robtop has already said that practice mode in platformer will be a thing, so whatever.
@@Siggator1There is literally a checkpoint right before the thing he was complaining about.
@@Siggator1 technically that's different, unless you're talking about I wanna be the guy.
@@Siggator1Yes it is, that was literally the easiest boss fight to exist of all time
@@orang9134”Easiest bossfight.”
*I cry in skill issue because I can’t even beat The Sewers bossfight*
Anyone else heard a Minecraft disc start playing at 6:02? Or is that just me?
Bro everyone knows that’s otherside
MatMart when RobTop doesn't make the most godlike white space kind of level while he was actually focusing on making the editor additions not absolute garbage (MatMart doesn't give a shit about priorities in game developing and only cares about the levels when the update's focus wasn't even the levels at all)
Dude I feel bad for Rob the only thing that He needs is a development team and the update will be able to come out faster and cleaner. but at least 2.2 is out
Don't feel bad cuz Rob don't want a dev team. It is a self-made problem.
@@poto2826 You to pay a dev team, it's not like Rob is gonna get like 500 people working on it, even a small group can cause money problems.
2:52 WE NEED A FULL VERSION
hmm ill let u cook
This update is evolution
Also like.. the levels look "mid" ?
You do realize right that robtop made every single asset from scratch? That takes equal amount if not more work than any of the masterpieces that you are thinking about
You're actually just taking it for granted that it takes robtop the same amount of work to make a level as someone with a premade level editor.
Robtop is coding the physics, the particles, the effects, the camera, creating every asset from scratch, doing the pixel art, and on top of everything he polishes his levels to a really high degree.
True.
you should flip your webcam so that youre looking into the video and not away from it
Wait, that would be so funny :D.
3:20 best thing i have ever heard
Nah, having a skibidi toilet reference after the zoomer no attention span joke is crazy 💀
It’s actually wild bro 😭
Really, man?
You want to stress RobTop more?
I personally think the precise jump into the door while it's opening is pretty cool honestly.
Also, platformer mode is getting checkpoints in the next bugfix update.
I found it really funny when you said "Now segregation is canon to Geometry Dash".
Honestly a skill issue 🗿☕️
Bro Rob didn't make The Secret Hollow with sounds in mind. Chill out.
i honestly prefer "mid" decoration than good decoration
True. I’ll rather have good gameplay and decent decoration over anything. At the end of the day, the gameplay matters the most. Featured level nowadays are so deco heavy that it’s annoying to play most of them.
6:34 bro was sr pelo
What
The first time I beat the Cursed Thorn I got hit with its fireball and it was at 0 health so I had to restart the fight.
So glad you agree with me on the Deadlocked wave 👍
video great and i am glad we hit something like this video because most YT are just saying the update is “Great” “the best ever” (which it is the best ever)
but no one is actually giving feedback and no one is being “real”
2:18 swag route let's gooooo!!!
Personally, the Cellar was my least favorite level just because of the lack of checkpoints in the first part. I get why it doesn't have any checkpoints but for me it felt unbalanced and rather stupid
Unbalanced?? I thought the gameplay was fun. And some people do it first try. Do not project your skill issue
@@gdmathguythe gameplay is interesting and unique but the part where its just a stack of moving slabs was annoying in my opinion. Don't be rude because I simply have my own opinion, if you don't like it you can just ignore it like a normal person
skill issue@@endgamer7896
Those moving plataforms lol
@@Ale-Y yeah
bro expected a bli level 😭
Yep, it's Fingerdash all over again
I remember one time some dude put Fingerdash in F tier because it wasn't as good as user created levels and he used Ultra Violence and Dark Odyssey as actual examples
One thing i'm just worried about is how the dificulty curves in the tower. The Tower is the game's introduction of the Platformer mode, and while the start of it is easy to pick up for beginners, there are some parts where it seems like the difficulty suddenly spikes upwards to new players (for example, the "boss fight" in The Sewers). While they aren't too hard, they take quite a bit of practice for some players, or are just a forever standing obstacle they will never be able to pass. While the difficulty of the levels are one thing, I'm more worried about how that might affect the first impressions of Platformer mode shown to new players.
Also, another problem is just how horrendous it is to play Platformer on mobile. You could argue "just play on a different device", but you have to remember that a majority of Geometry Dash players play on mobile devices. On mobile, the icon is controlled by two arrow buttons on the side, and the other hand is meant to be used for jumping/tapping actions. However, with both arrows in the same corner (they're also quite small), it's a bit hard to manuever around some of the obstacles and you'll sometimes just straight up go the wrong way on accident. This, combined with the difficulty of some parts, can possibly cause players to believe that Platformer mode is a terrible addition.
8:20 I am dying at this part lol 😂😂
Nice video !!!
2:39 Gave me flashbacks 😳😳😳
Gaved????? You mean “Gave?”
Bro 😭😭😭
Idc what others think but I enjoyed all of the levels and thats what matters to me the most
Dash is still sick, also i bet we will learn how to overlap sounds to make it say labotomy dash and then a jumpscare with an extreme demon
3:00 I'm probably the only person to notice this but... FAWFULLL
Don’t worry I noticed to
I HAVE CHORTLES

people saying "i waited 6 years for this?" is like dumb
coding is hard in general and making a whole game editor is hard and making designs, levels, objects, server changing, etc is very very hard for a single developer
people only say the update was shit is only saying that because the have been fed by other games with an actual dev team
my response:
0:30 literally nobody says that, and i also disagree
1:20 i agree with that, but it gets followed up by the best spider buildup ever
1:34 the dash orb is just great
1:41 best part of the level, i love the massive buildup
1:56 WADDAYA MEEEEEAN? ok i sorta agree, but the ship going waay up is just so satisfying somehow
2:10 another amazing part, i agree
2:20 NAWWWWWWWWWWW
3:33 french laugh.
3:41 how did you think that???
4:26 i wish that guy would come back
5:42 welll you cant blame him... the servers were barely ready yet
5:56 rattledash! i shore hope nothing happens to him!!!
6:00 yep
7:09 ohh yeahh the best level
7:36 there is also an amogus sound
7:57 why you say it like that? 🤨
8:19 in good, there's evil. in evil, there's good. balance, pure good, then there's this b-
8:28 if it was fair, this bossfight would be a million times easier. like, to the point that it would be easier than back on track.
yeah thats all. i have no life

Thank you for stating that this is a new update, really helped you know?
5 hours in and we're already at a 1.8k to 991
that's like basically a 2:1 ratio, which for a TH-cam video, is absolutely terrible
yeah i think this guy has the mentality of “any attention is good attention”
rare footage of matmart screaming 5:40
Literally took me an hour to beat the cursed thorn on my first play through, only to beat it first try on my speed run so I could get the third coin
An hour? Holy shit was it really that hard for you?
I suck at the game. Gimme a break. Besides I forgot to mention I was also playing DND for half of that
An hour???? Bro what 😭
the biggest skill issue ever
what a disappointing monthly upload please don’t make more 2.2 content
5:09 platformer practice mode is getting added in 2.21 and its already in megahack
That sucks honestly really disappointing
Wdym @shiver8082
This video is pretty fire in the hole 🔥🔥🔥
Dash already very lag for me even to finish, idk why some people are complaining how it is not ✨well done✨
6:21 actually maybe he could do it like deltarune did, if you're fast enough or access a secret beforehand or somethn you then get the option to skip the cutscene
Fire in the hole 🔥
3:54 tf you mean every attempt you only get there if its a good run bc theres no reason on keep going if its not a good run so you would just reset
1 thing about the criticism in Dash's boring ship and robot is that i can agree, but it feels like it was meant to be like this because now those to gamemode have COMPLETELY new physics, and you can tell how much heavy it feels.
so altough i could agree with the boring part, if it wasn't, it would be a bit too much when gave it with the new physics
-blue coins in the tower: i would disagree, 1st blue coin is just there to make you know there's gonna be blue coins, 2nd coin is hinted by glow and 3 one has a second platform below the other one. their all hinted pretty well (glow one is debatable)
i can see people complaing about the blue coins being hided on the walls, most of them just having slight changes, but you can tell some of them are good, they are hinted well and sometimes have difficulty on 'em
It would be really cool for robtop to release a new level of demon difficulty with more complex swingcopter gameplay
2:44 not Yuri... anyone but Yuri 😭😭😭
