Lost and Unused Features in Geometry Dash [April Fools]

You would think that after Geometry Dash 2.1 being out for five years, we would know everything about the game by now. However, in this video I cover 10 interesting but unused/removed/lost features that you might not have known about!

Post April Fools stuff:
THIS IS AN APRIL FOOLS VIDEO, PRETTY MUCH ALL FACTS ARE FAKE!! Honestly, I don't like this video nearly as much as last year's (the 150th coin one). Much lower effort and a lot less creative, I feel guilty since it's just nine minutes of me spreading misinformation then going "haha april fools!!" at the end. And it's not because I was demotivated or anything, really I just struggled to come up with a new interesting idea. I know I can't top last year's video so I'm not going to try to, and I absolutely refuse to clickbait 2.2 again. So I ended up settling on this wacky idea. The final product came out fine, I just wouldn't call it my best work. Some facts ARE real, which just makes things more confusing. I'll go into more detail in a future second channel video.

April Fools!! almost every fact is fake, trickster fox boy strikes again (yes i will gladly spoil this because misinformation is bad)

I know this video definitely isn't as good as last year's but I really wanted to try something new instead of copying an old idea or clickbaiting 2.2 yet again. Speaking of 2.2, hopefully it brings more interesting ideas for the next few years. This video definitely isn't my proudest but I think it still came out fine, but I feel guilty since in the grand scheme of things it's just me telling lies for 9 minutes then going "haha jk" at the end.

If you're wondering which facts are actually real (some are real, some are false but based on a real discovery), I'll be uploading a video to my second channel later.

The best part about this is that not everything is made up, like the unused transition trigger.

Also that rickroll was very creative

[Magenitech]

i like how it’s going to be an april fools video but still has the blue coins and the broken transition thing in the thumbnail

edit: for the blue coin i was talking about an early design for the user coin

[Real_Potato_Man]

The "Diabolical Monstore" Is a direct reference to Scrupulous Fingore, an unused enemy in Super Mario.
Even the reaction of Robtop was the exact same as it was with the Shigeru Miyamoto, the creator of Nintendo.

[ZmacRavioli]

Colon does April Fools so well. I already knew it was April 1st but he still sort of convinced me to the point to think this was a combo of actual unused features and April Fools jokes.

[LuniFoxo]

The hidden rickroll was so clever I was genuinely confused for a sec until i remembered what April Fools' anthem was
Also the Ultra Low Detail Mode sounds like a genuinely great feature, deffo could help with beating modern demons where you can't see the level at all

Fun Fact:

The game had an anti piracy in its beta versions. It would pop up when it detected you pirated the game and would disable all online features. It also asks to buy the full game because it supports RobTop. There is a screen shot online. I can't remember the link though.

Never gonna give you 2.2
Always gonna let you down
You're not gonna run around
I'll desert you
And I'll gonna make you cry
Gd will tell you "goodbye"
All because i was telling lies
'Bout 2.2

I don't know enough GD to know what's real and what's not, and by the time I found out it was all fake, I still believe some of these are real lol

Awesome video :)

[Livia]

5 likes and i will mod diabolical monstor into gd

[GriffinHelabiski]

Shame we’re not getting an April Fools’ video from Colon this year, but this will still be amazing!

Edit 12/31/23: You can stop fighting in the comments now 😭
Colon said before the premiere that he didnt have an April Fools video planned for 2022 and I knew he was joking I just wanted to play along

[fratzentoaster]

8:36 this has to be the most big brain rickroll of all times

[BulletxBro]

How do you say “What is this? some kind of geometry dash?” without bursting out laughing 😭😭

[asynced]

8:36 This guy, he got us well by rickrolling us... Well done Colon, well done.

[hicalebih]

I love how reasonable some of these are, you can’t even tell it’s an April fools joke until near the end… Great job!!!

[stingraii]

6:38 5 MONTHS AGO I BELIEVED THIS WAS CANON FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES UNTIL I SAW THE UPLOAD DATE BIGGEST HEARTBREAK OF MY LIFE

[nt_force]

8:35 this is the most clever rickroll ever made

[stanislavmihalas]

The "hold to dash!" (It actually says "hold to dash" without the "!") actually appears if you don't hold the first dash orb
Or probably it's the mobile version

[gamerkidc.j.]

I have a theory that in 2.2 they will add blue coins that are practice mode coins that will still give you icons but not the same icons that you’ll get whenever you get normal coins.

I always look forward to your April fool's videos because they always are a lot of fun to watch, and this one was no exception, but this time you made most of it sound legit. The only truly outlandish part I felt was when you were talking about potbor's cut dialogue, but aside from that, you did a good job of making this video look legit, good job :)
