Geometry Dash

Geometry Dash was created by Swedish developer Robert Topala, better known as RobTop. Released for iOS and Android in 2013, the game later made its way to Steam, expanding its reach even further.

RobTop’s idea was straightforward: a game where you control a small cube that jumps in sync with the music to avoid obstacles and spikes. Yet this simple concept became something far greater. By combining rhythm-based gameplay, precise timing, and pulsating electronic soundtracks, Geometry Dash created a unique experience that feels both frustrating and rewarding at the same time.

Gameplay: Easy to Learn, Impossible to Master

At its core, Geometry Dash is a rhythm-based platformer. The player controls a cube that automatically moves forward through a level filled with spikes, platforms, and traps. The only action you can perform is jumping — by tapping the screen or pressing a key. That’s it.

But don’t be fooled by the simplicity. Every jump, flip, and bounce must be timed perfectly with the beat of the background music. One mistake — one tiny misstep — sends you back to the start. There are no checkpoints, which makes completing a level an exhilarating accomplishment.

Each level has its own soundtrack composed by talented electronic artists such as DJVI, Waterflame, and F-777. The music doesn’t just set the mood — it defines the rhythm of the gameplay. The spikes, jumps, and portals all move in perfect synchronization with the beat, creating an addictive loop that pushes you to try again and again.
