[Animated Graph] Top 25 Hardest Demons in Geometry Dash (Jun 2015 - May 2020)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ต.ค. 2024
- A visualized history of the Geometry Dash Demon List, from both the forums and pointercrate, showing how much GD has changed in the last few years. Also shows the victors of each hardest demon, and the time they beat it. Wayback machine used to find most of the data, until regular updates were posted on twitter/discord. There's probably about 120 different version of the demon list recorded, resulting in a little over 3000 data values in excel.
Early 2.1: Pre-Bloodlust
Mid 2.1: Post-Bloodlust and Pre-Zodiac
Late 2.1: Post-Zodiac
Based on verification date
Disclaimer: May be some inaccuracies. A lot of 2015 and late 2016 was extrapolation, as there were no archives between June 2015 - November 2015 and September 2016 - December 2016. FPS bypass users have been included in the 'Victors' section.

Stop commenting asking about The Golden. Look at the upload date and use your head to figure out the rest.
wasnt the golden uploaded March or smth?
It wasn't put at number 1 on the demons list till recently.....
Plus The Golden is #2 now as of 9/12/2020.
@@Hazelpy what?! I didn't even notice lmao
Plus Tartarus Got put back at 1 not too long ago
This is awesome! Fun to watch Phobos pop in and pop out lol
phobo is hardddd :((
i habe skill no to pass phobo
Haha phobos bo pop pop
Congrats on Phobos
Hi KrMaL u r my favorite, xo is my favorite level also

Favourite GD edition edition late 2.1
Digital Descent be like: I EXIS-
Erebus: *were gonna stop you there*
Digital Descent is a *CERTIFIED BRUH MOMENT*
Believe or not Stalemate Redux also used to be #1, but for even shorter

Erebus Repecc
God I remember when Bloodbath was still a top demon. I remember when someone made a GD Forums thread saying "WHOA guys, Bloodbath has fallen out of the top 10"
yeah, crazy that it almost remained top 25 till bloodlust came out, huge level for it's time
Blood bath was and probably will remain the biggest difficulty spike this game has and will ever see (unless icecave finishes silent clubstep), second to bloodlust(this is a wierd one it took forever to get a first victor),then zodiac, the top one now really isn't that crazy a jump for top players
@@twyistd7477 what about the hell world
@@ashs603 hacked level
@@megascrub3054 I am talking about difficulty spikes not its legitimatcy
Everyone always sleeps on the fact that phobos was the first level to surpass bloodbath in difficulty
No Sonic Wave existed and was rated for a time before either of them.
*laughs in sakupen hell*
@FF yeah but the level just kinda sucked
the version of sonic wave which existed during bloodbath times was way easier than the version today
This is really cool, great job!!
damn, the game has grown in terms of difficulty over the years.
0:27
Phobos: "hi and bye lol"
Also digital descent
The hell factory: hello
I love how people say that Zodiac was the longest lasting #1 demon since Bloodbath and Bloodlust is just like - "Um, remember me? Yeah I was #1 for over a year too you know..."
Barely anyone acknowledged it as top 1 when Crimson Planet was verified
@@valeriewithsalt True but by that logic Bloodbath should have been dethroned by Phobos well before BB hit the 1 year mark but it didn't because BB was viewed differently at the time. The same can then be said about Zodiac and Thinking Space. There's no doubt there was a time in the GD community that we viewed TS as harder than Zodiac so by all accounts the big three #1's were never truly #1 for that long. BB with Phobos, BL with CP, and Zodiac with TS.
@@floaterstorm7937 thinking space is easier than zodiac watch the list to see the diference. Crimson planet never was top 1 cause it didnt get rated until zodiac was top 1, and when cp got rate moved bloodlust to 3. Phobos was considered impossible and lost rate. Zodiac was the logest top 1 but BB was the longest without victors. :)
@@vlazz_3251 Thinking Space today is considered vastly easier than Zodiac but back when Atomic verified it people went crazy over the level's difficulty and called it harder than Tartarus. If the level was rated immediately upon verification it would have been #1 above Zodiac and would later be moved down when top 10 grinders like nSwish and Mycrafted beat the level fairly easily. Crimson Planet was not #1 at first, but became #1 for a few hours after Zodiac was moved to the legacy list very briefly due to xander's hack-verification and the changes he was doing to the level at the time. Unnerfed Phobos was the Phobos hack-verified by Tygrysek and the one considered impossible at the time and lost a rating after Riot exposed Tygrysek. I was referring to the nerfed Phobos verified by KrmaL which today sits above BB but for a long time sat below BB. Zodiac was placed on the list on March 9th, 2019 at #1 and was dethroned by Tartarus on February 10th, 2020. Zodiac failed to hit the 1-year mark while Bloodlust was placed at #1 on February 18th, 2018 and officially dethroned by Zodiac on March 9th, 2019, almost hitting 13 months long. Bloodbath was placed at #1 around August 12th, 2015 and was dethroned by Sakupen Hell sometime in early-to-mid September 2016 on a lost copy of a gd forums demon list, very likely passing the 13 month mark. Zodiac was, however, the longest lasting TRUE hardest level, with BB falsely being above Phobos and BL only being #1 for so long due to CP's lack of rating. If you made it this far, thanks for reading and I hope you have a great day! :]
Yes you are right, thats why Zodiac is considered the longest top 1. Also thinking space was considered harder than unnerfed yatagarasu and when it got rate wasnt considered zodiacs dificulty beacause it placed 4, harder than bl and easier than kenos.
I've been waiting for a video like this for years
You're a legend
OnlyTrying TH-cam
Always wanted to do something like this. I have a (probably inaccurate) list of the Top 10 demons from before June 2015 all the way back to November 2013 if you would like, taking info from Stormfly, other old lists and the GD servers themselves.
It doesn’t quite match up with your June list and it’s only every month so idk. Great video btw.
Oh really? I'd love that, if it's only top 10 then I might make a separate video of purely the top 10. My discord is OPzy
#9037 if you want to send me it, if I do make that vid i'll credit you obv. All my data from before 2017 was monthly at best, sometimes not even that, so your data might be better than mine haha
OPzy
I doubt it lol, mine is cataclysm9 #2139. You might have to do some reshuffling in the earlier years of 2015 so it fits, but I’ll try send it now.
Hey dude, I'm making a history of top 50 demons and I'm all the way to April 2015, so could I take a look at your list and possibly extend mine?
Brachiozaur
Me?
@@Catani99 Yup
Damn this is a cool video, nice work on compiling this much data into a single video.
I can’t believe ICDX was that high up... I just beat it yesterday
GG! Yeah Icdx was once thought of as impossible
CosmicLevi Yeah it was my second extreme demon ever... But I need to say that the gameplay of ICDX was really good I liked it!
@@riolulein5388 bruh the thing is I'm struggeling really hard with icdx, idk why but like I'm so nervous when I'm far that I start shaking and then well death follows. One day I'll beat it tho, just always gotta stay determined
CosmicLevi I also struggled with that level so much... I’m in Croatia right now so I can’t play on PC. When I’m back I’m trying to beat Acu. I guess you struggle with that 40% part right?
@@riolulein5388 not really getting past 40 isn't that hard but getting past 56 gets me so nervous that I do so many mistakes. I'm also on vacation rn
Such a cool way to show the game's growth throughout the years!
Wow, this is an amazing video! It reminded me that I have been playing this game for three years. It's amazing to see how far the community has gone since.
Nice visualization! I appreciate the amount of data and research it must have taken to compile into this video.
Bloodlust stayed at #1 so long that the entire extension song was played and then was perfectly ended by zodiac.
It’s crazy how bloodlust took 3 years to verify and still after all that time it was top 1
imagine if old boj got verified and rated then we'd have a new rgb lol
What about the upcoming sonic wave infinity
Nah new rgb will be Tartarus, the golden, and swi
Kingklasher by the time that’s verified Tartarus and the golden won’t even be in the top 3
@@nima7205 I feel like since its gone trough-like 5 verifiers now no ones gonna wanna do it and its gonna become an open verification
@@cybercrafted4229 I'm here to bet that levels gonna get butchered, or canceled because the verified will drop it every time
I'd forgotten how high up some of these level used to be
Phobos: I am the second hardest demo-
gd community: *no*
0:26
*Bloodbath:* I am the winner!
*Phobos:* HOLD MY BEER
*(1 second later)*
*Phobos:* GOODBYE EVERYONE
*Bloodbath:* Ok?
This video have lots of quality! Keep up the good work man
1:47 : artificial assent: Yes Im number 1!
erebus: oh no...
Anyway
Awesome video!
Sonic Wave, half a decade after its initial release is still one of the hardest demons in the game, since Sunix’s version is (I assume) the same as cyclic’s original
Its way harder
Cyclics original version isn’t even comparable to normal sw
Wow amazing work dude!
Missed some events top 1 demons and what not but still a cool nostalgia trip
Phobos be like:
"Hello"
"Goodbye"
"Maybe I'll stay"
"Nah"
"Hey guys"
Deimos:
"Sup"
Also I like how Sonic Wave is still holding its it's own.
Wow amazing video :D
I have enjoyed
0:58 Down bass: now it’s time
1:01 Sakupen hell: Freeze
1:19 Uprise: ok this is my chance , 1:22 Nooooo
This is such a wonderful video! It combines two things that I love, statistics and geometry dash!
Intersting how now insane demon now was in some time the hardest demons
Fun Fact: Tartarus now have a cumulative 339 days at number one, if at the end of May no "Upcoming TOP-1 levels" will be verified and rated Tartarus will be the third level to reach 365 days at number one. Probably this means that is one of the biggest jump in difficulty ever done.
OMG, COOLEST THING EVER
Si
i love how digital descent just pops up for 2 seconds
Digital descent: yay I’m hardest Lev-
Erebus: I’m about to end this levels career
1:50 lol I love that part by far my favorite 😂
i love the split second of digital decent being number 1
cant wait for an updated vid
Hearing tartarus music after zodiac, feels so epic lmao
shouldnt thinking space technically be a 2.0 demon?
going off verification date, sakupen hell and sonic wave are 2.0, erebus 2.1, etc.
Phobos legit just said hi and fucking went
i like this, but it triggers me how sonic wave is labled as "2.0" (probs cuz it was verified in 2.0)
Yeah there are a few levels that were built in a previous update but verified in a later one. Sonic Wave, Sakupen Hell and the Hell Factory were all 1.9 levels (technically, the hell factory received a 2.0 update, but anyways.)
@@jbillydjibouti811 thinking space exists too
in 2 years Bloodbath was moved from 25 place to 150+, incredible.
I like how 2.1 is split into three different sections
0:29 ouch, poor phobos-
good
1:50 Digital Descent had its second.
xd
xD
That jump from Sakupen Hell to Sonic Wave still impresses me, probably the biggest hardest demon jump ever
On par with cataclysm to bloodbath imo, both huge jumps
Zodiac is according to nSwish, 3 times as hard as Crimson Planet. That means the biggest hardest demon jump is Bloodlust to Zodiac.
@@ksl9252 no way Zodiac is this much harder, it's 3 times harder than maybe something like Bloodbath or Sakupen Hell but definitely not Crimson Planet. nSwish obviously exaggerated about the difference. But I agree it's harder than Crimson Planet, just not that much
@@Sevant Shock, TMN, Pen, and Enlex. These 4 parts when removed all the other parts would still be harder than Crimson Planet. Gameplay wise, I'd say Zodiac is harder.
@@ksl9252 I've seen the way other players who have beaten talk about those two levels and while Zodiac is harder it's not massively harder at all. Gameplay-wise Zodiac is easier than Crimson Planet literally every top player I have talked to in the comments section have said that. Zodiac's difficulty gameplay-wise is usually considered a little bit harder than Lucid Nightmares (which has the 8th hardest gameplay). Lot's of Zodiac's difficulty comes from its length which is almost 3 1/2 long.
Nswish isn't the only good player. Most people consider Mycrafted's opinion more valuable as well because he doesn't exaggerate as much. Also, the difference between Sakupen Hell and Sonic Wave is 96 spots on the list.
0:27 phobos: helo
phobos: *G O O D B Y E*
Phobos: dies instantly*
The Hell Factory: fine I'll do it myself
Actually very glad to see someone made this
This is literally all of the top demons from when I started playing
This video is underrated great job deserves way more likes

@@exiled_shadegd Actually Oblivion is overrated by the Demonlist. that's because, according to the actual victor, it should be below surely Unknown, but possibly even lower than Tartarus
Now Pointercrate has a time machine you can use to make the research easier
Stopped playing this game while cata was the hardest demon. Coming back now and seeing it isn’t even top 100 anymore just blows my mind haha
rn it is top 200-ish
Bloodbath: *chillin*
Sakupen hell and sonic wave "Oh, I don't think so"
I love that one frame where digital descent is #1
Interesting how some old top 25s are now “just another insane demon.” Those must have been highly praised back then
It's so fascinating how levels become harder and harder and people beat them... where is the limit?
I'm actually starting to believe that there is none, with enough time and persistence anything can be beaten legitimatly. Espacially seeing how speedrunners are doing frame-perfect inputs in their runs, showing what humans are capable of.
@Random Gaming theoretically silent circles is possible, but if it was ever done legit, it would be in at least 100 years.
@Random Gaming maybe in the future someone would be able to click that fast consistently, though I must agree the chances are very slim
firework and galaxy collapse are stretching around the humanly impossible as of right now, but who knows what could be in store for the future
The limit will be that every single click has to be pixel perfect. And now they can make 1 minute of then 2... so theres thecnically not a limit,since time isnt rly limited rn
bro crimson planet was in the top 1 for a short time because they eliminated zodiac because of the hacking
It wasn’t for more than a month though
Stalemate Redux was also #1 for a while
3:02 lmao loved this
It's still unreal to me how Stalemate was #8.
Digital Descent:Alright, my turn-
Erebus: *N O*
I hope Sonic Wave Series will be out,like the SWI buffed
1:50 gotta love that 0.35 seconds of fame dd got
Sonic Wave was the last and final breath of 1.9 in the too tiers of the list. Much love for this level.
Tatarus: *yes I’m finally first*
The Golden: *no I’m late to verify and build oh noes*
Tatarus: shutup your not belonged here now shoo
Bruh, the misspelling of Ouroboros
Lmaooooo
cant believe thinking space wasn't there for a split second during april fools
i vaguely remember abp first being placed at #9 before being moved up
when i came back to GD this year i thought bloodlust was still top 1. oh, how wrong i was.
me too lol i thought it's gonna be in the top for as long as bloodbath was
@@guseyngasanov8251 it took 3 years to verify and still after all that time was top 1 if it only took a year or less it would be the longest lasting top 1 in gd
@@unitedfalls3001 true
Bloodlust is now 57
good video
Black Blizzard No.9 WOW
Amazing idea, well executed!
Late 2.1
Me : this is the end...
RobTop : no... its just the beginning
this is awesome
Me : *see victors*
Me : What???
Me Next Day : Oh I Know Now
Now the hardest Extreme Demon is Tartarus by Riot and more. Verified by ItzDolphy.
Lol I remember when The people compared bloodbath with sonic wave in The beginnings of 2017. We can see that sonic wave was too hard to that time
Imagine not knowing what happened before 1.9
Sept 2020, tartarus is still #1 and the golden is in #2
October 2021 and Tartarus is still #1
sonic wave will remain the only 1.9 level that stays on top 30, which surprises me.
People in 2.0 when bloodbath got replaced by a harder level : "We're all going to die"
according to you, if the sonic wave infinity has been verified which position will he occupy?
top 1 by far
Maybe extended list? But idk that might be a overrating it a bit
It got top 3 when first added, now its top 4
Como alguien tan desconocido hace tal obra de arte
"Late 2.1 is a bit wrong lol 2.2 will probably take like 2 years from now to be released
you forgot that crimson planet was hardest for a few days then zodiac was rerated
PG Clubstep: I'll be back...
I thought Digital and SMR were #1 for a very short time. Plus Zodiac was in legacy at some point for being hack verified and CP was #1 until Tech beat Zodiac. Idk I might be completely wrong
Nah you’re right, just forgot
@@opzy4130 Oh ok. Still a very good video
Well at least I can feel good that I completed a top 10 demon in the early 1.9 list
That was late 1.9, not early.
Temp: 25th? hyear boiiiii !!!!
So quick question are you doing this by date of vacation or date of creation to determine if a level is 1.9, pre 1.9, or 2.0 and later. Just questioning for levels like thinking space where they were created in 1.9, updated in 2.0 and verified in 2.1
I remember when Bizarre Phantasm and Hell Factory first came out I wanted them to surpass Bloodbath now they are completely irrelevant levels
People who beat those two would be LEGENDS in the community
Very cool video! Thanks
very cool video
Really Cool!
Great Job, Nice vídeo :)
