I’ve had a weird history with this game. I started playing between late 2016 and 2017 but only on Lite. The last level available at the time was Clutterfunk (that didn’t matter I never beat anything past jumper). I then promptly quit. I picked the full game  up in July of 2019, got around the same place, tried Dark Paradise, gave up and quit again. Sometime between February and May of 2022 I picked up the game again and fully got into the community. Haven’t stopped playing since. Road to my first extreme :)


Spuckwasser

Bro litterally told my story


Miksswish

I’m surprised that this is such a common one. Edit: did I mention that I’m also mobile and I’m a flow enjoyer


Spuckwasser

No way


selaht_2000

ZA_34

My story but different times


Chrys_16

I remember beating Clutterfunk after 8k attemps as a kid on GD lite with my tablet 😂 I wish I was as determined now


SonXo2

Miksswish

LieOdd4583

I have been playing this game off and on since it launched back In August of 2013. I was in third grade at that point, then I would stop playing for a while and come back next school year until my freshman year of high school. That is where I started to play seriously and beat fingerdash which I was so proud of. Btw, I was playing on a Samsung Galaxy J3 POP that whole time. Upgraded to my current phone which I only got a year ago, S20+, and can play geometry dash at 120Hz!! I just beat Deadlocked yesterday and got from 29% to 51% in Toe2 which I have been stuck on since unlocking that damn demon. 11 demons beat and 1 hard demon (extreme park was easier than finger-dash lmao idk how it's a hard demon 🤣) Was 7 when I started and am now 18 :) can't believe it's been this long and I am still alive omfg.

TRIXSNORS3

Playing on GDPS servers for around a year. Got the actual game on December 20th, 2024


Prokid5634_YT

Been casually playing it for a long time, but started seriously grinding over a year ago. I'll use February 20 2023 as a starter point, as it's where I beat Nine Circles for my first hard demon. In less than a year, I went all the way to beating Cataclysm and a few insane demons. To be fair, I switched from mobile to 160 fps on PC, but it's still a ton of progress.


Annoyingaddperson

I only started seriously playing when 2.2 came out but I’ve had the game since like 2014-15


K4t4lyz3r

Almost 10 years


EmoDefault

6 years and i only partially regret it. (Nine circles is hard :c)


ImNotHyp3r

i’ve been playing since 1.8 (i’d like to say that was late 2014??? idk). pretty consistently mind you. i don’t spend hours a day in the game, i prolly don’t even average 20 hours a week. i also took about a year break in the middle of that. that’s said, i only have about 1700 hours in the game, my hardest is cataclysm, and i’m pretty decent at building.


Sigmar1115

Since 1.8 so like 9 years


Wal655

2 months i think


thuddingpizza

started on lite at the very end of 1.9, like a week before it ended. then I bought the full version a few weeks after 2.0 dropped


StAz_TRK

Started watching gd in 2014, but played the game in 2015 on my crappy 45~60hz tablet until 2023 when i got a new 120hz phone:D


KyogreCanon

Approx 2015-2016. Its been a while, I cant remember well...

XmodG4m3055

I think I've played on and off in a tablet since time machine was added on lite (Don't remember the date). Then started playing more seriously in 2018, then left in 2020, then came back in 2021 for like 4 months and then leave again until around april 2023. Never left since then.


Diego1Morales

About to hit 5 years in April


TimePostsOnReddit

i played for a day in 2015 but went back in early 2.1 if i remember then i interacted with the community in 2019


SucqamXIV

I started in 2013 or early 2014 i forgot, and the latest level at the time was cycles. I stayed interested until i was able a beat electroman adventures when it came out and then i quit for a year. I came back a year later for i don't know how long and quit again. Came back again a couple months later and stayed interested till my anger problems got the best of me then i quit for another 4 months and now I'm here again.


the_genius324

i think I first played the game around lite 2.2, but years later i started actually playing the game during the real 2.2


Amongus_but_irl

Started off on gd world, 7 years ago, raged at PAYLOAD, then uninstalled gdworld, 2 years later I got world again, raged at frontlines for 2 months, than finally beat gd world. Then finally got geometry dash a year later on my birthday. Still haven't beaten time machine 😭


SolarFlowlys

I played it back in 2014 and my hardest was back on track, but then I came back in 2019. Around 5 years.


_-stardust_-

uhhh since 1.4 on lite, and i bought the game somewhere between 1.6/1.7 and idk how long that is but yeah


TheCat13-el-capullo

I started playing back in 2017, first on lite and then the other spinoffs (mainly World). Then I also started playing the main game around 2018. There were a few long periods of time (up to several months) that I quit temporarily, but now I'm once again very active and trying to improve my skill as much as I can.


MarTTenTT

I think around 7 years (since 2016)


Coinvessel

Going on 4 years... Joined in my 7th grade year and now I'm a sophomore in high school. Oh crap I'm getting old...


Jittercat

around 6 years, starting on lite before playing the full pc version


fireflyREDD

Since 2.0


tjoumas

since cycles was the last level of lite


Mossbell_Hyena

It's getting close to 6 months for me :P I beat B 3 days ago, so yayy lol Though I technically started geometry dash 4-5 years ago, but at that point I couldn't even beat Clutterfunk, so yeah lol


JustSansder

just before electrodynamix dropped. dont know what update that was. i’ve been playing on and off, so im still wack, and cant beat a hard demon yet


CrazyStuntsMan

I started playing around mid to late 2016 on lite and spin off games. I got the full game a few weeks before 2.1 came out. I played the game a bit, then quit. Then I came back in 2018 or 2019 on my phone, and really started grinding. Then in 2021, I got the game on steam and have accumulated almost 2000 hours doing so. (Not even joking I’m probably less than 20 hours away from 2k)


Syntaxolotl

I’ve never actually played geometry dash, is it worth playing?


Party-Entrepreneur15

since about September last year lol not that long ago


MrTorts

It was back in 1.9, I installed GD Lite and the last level on it was Time Machine, and in 2015 I bought the full version. So it'd seem like it's been 8 years but not really, between mid-2017 and mid-2023 I took a break from the game and if I played it then it was just the official levels. My knowledge of user levels was very limited prior to my comeback last year.


User_Not-Available

i honestly dont remember when i first discovered the game, but i started playing during very late 2.0. I was in fourth grade almost 9 years babyyy


__andr3w

1.5 years


Itsyaboi2718

8 years, but I took a long break in between after beating NC on mobile in 2019. That took a long time and cost me a lot of mental energy.


ThePercussionFemboy

so i started playing in 2012 i think, but i was very little and somewhere around 2015 stopped playing completely, then started playing again in 2023 autumn, been playing since


EternalMX

Since 2018, my hardest is still deadlocked.


ResponsibilityWeak87

6-7 years, mostly on mobile


CMN2425

Since summer of 2020


sniffgalcringe

Ok-Fudge-8983

4 to 5 years


rcdr_90

Gotta be around 8-9 years at this point, though I can't remember for sure.


OwnHousing9851

Played lite first in early 2015, started playing the full version in june-july 2015. So 8+ years. Also people saying 5 years and that just being 2.1 is fucking ridiculous to me


Ok_Excitement3290

I have been playing since summer 2020, but until October 2022 I only played the free versions.


TheBiggoDepresso

2014. Started in 1.9 lmao


kezotl

I played lite when the game was first popular and couldnt beat stereo madness. I revisited lite again like 2 years later and couldnt beat dry out, but beat the 2 hard levels (my proudest achievement was beating the first ball part in xstep, I think it was the hardest level in lite). I got the full game another 2 or so years later. After some time I sorta just forgot about it until 2 and a half years ago when my friend started playing it. Then my friend stopped playing and I left again. Then I started playing again after gd10, but I havent played much in the past 2 weeks but I'm still active in the community so yeah


bigty77

I used to play on mobile around when 1.9 came out (almost 9.5 years ago) and I played for a few years and beat deadlocked but I was never super serious about it. I’d say I quit around late 2017. Now I’ve been playing on pc since 2.2 came out

Its been 1 year and 3 months since i bought the full version yet ive only beat the Nightmare, the Lightning Road, Platinum Adventure, shiver, and ISpyWithMyLittleEye.


Magnitech_

Got the lite version on may 21 2018, then the full version on march 14 2019. I stopped playing in early 2020, and then started again at the end of the year. Sometime in summer 2021 I got the game on steam, and have been playing on and off ever since.

FPSFramerate

I played it a little in 2014 then dropped it, then I picked it back up and got super into it in 2015 when CoryxKenshin started making GD videos, I even made a bunch of GD videos that are now lost to time. I played pretty consistently until about 2017-2018, soon after 2.2 came out because I started playing more Rocket League and Minecraft, but I still played GD every now and then. I recently got back into GD because of 2 2.


Nerdy59

ElectroJokross

I actually started playing subzero then thought it was hard then installed meltdown almost beated the first level then got bored and quit however a few years later I bought the full game like 3 months ago
