Geometry Dash SubZero's Coin Problem

Geometry Dash SubZero's coins aren't that great. Let's spend a quarter of an hour figuring out why.

*UPDATE: THE COINS HAVE BEEN FIXED!!!*
RobTop saw my video and just updated Geometry Dash SubZero, fixing EVERY SINGLE coin that I complained about!! I'll probably have to make a follow up video, omg he's an actual gamedev LEGEND

Press Start 1 - Glow is brighter
Press Start 2 - Coin is always visible
Press Start 3 - No change(?)

Nock Em 1 - Pillar has a different color
Nock Em 2 - Key recolored and moved down (nerf)
Nock Em 3 - Dotted line added to the wall, added an additional saw challenge (buff)

Power Trip 1 - Complete rework, the coin path opens up and is harder to exit
Power Trip 2 - Complete rework, hidden orbs reveal a boost to get the coin
Power Trip 3 - Is now granted immediately instead of at the end of the level

remember - if you have to use youtube to look up a coin, it's bad. especially since most people are gonna watch advy's videos for coin help.

8:09 “I’m looking for a coin that’s fun, *BUT INSTEAD YOU GIVE ME PLATFORM 9¾!”*

[unfairdev]

Honestly, I agree entirely with the points made in this video; the secret coins could have been placed much better in Subzero's levels. I had to look that up to know where the secret coins were, which isn't something I would frequently do. I hope these mistakes aren't in the new 2.2 official levels.

never have i ever thought a video about you practically screaming over golden collectible circles in a cube game would be so interesting but here we are

[theodorepek]

“This isn’t some kids secret minecraft base” Best quote of the video change my mind

[connorkhouri]

Imagine when he sees the last two coins on Dash💀💀

[lewigi]

I agree with this. When I first played GD Subzero, I was very bad at the game and these coins were a struggle to find and collect. I feel like it wasn't friendly to newer players. Great Video!

[Teeeeee_J]

The first Nock Em coin is something you'd find in the average New Super Mario Bros U level.

Please stop replying the coins have been fixed and frankly I don't even care anymore

[nelljohansen]

The fact that RobTop actually saw this and UPDATED THE COINS is such a flex

[virtualdash]

2:08 Coming back to this video in 2.2… Colon had a good reason to be worried lol

[jams]

I imagine that spinoffs like subzero, meltdown, and world would be a lot of players first experiences with geometry dash, so having these coins be as non accessible as they are is even more infuriating than it would be in the normal game honestly.

[spongeee.]

im SO glad that somebody has finally spoken up about coins. i feel like people really struggle with coin routes since they are either completely unknown to the player or just really easy. it should provide a little extra challenge. fully agree with these points, super glad to see this.

thank you for talking about this lol

[kirbymaster]

YES! I’m so glad I’m not the only one annoyed by the coins in Subzero! Hopefully the coins in the 2.2 levels are better, but I didn’t even consider that the might not be until you mentioned it...

Favorite part of the video:
11:15
"Maybe the next thing you should work out is better places to put these STUPID YELLOW CIRCLES"

...I died laughing.

[sdslayer]

gonna stream myself on day 1 of 2.2 running into every wall in Explorers and Dash until I find the coins

honestly smth abt this video just really gives off that classic GD youtube era like 2017-2019 and i like it a lot, super solid video bro

[IAmABlueBacon]

This video actually makes me change my opinion of Polargeist’s third coin.

[skorchx]

I guess Rob’s following in the footsteps of the community and making every single damn coin a chore to get. 2.2 is gonna be great.

This video is not only good in explaining the problems in the GD SubZero coins, but it’s good to teach creators on how to properly use coins to make the levels slightly challenging
