    4:46 One small detail is that the credit actually goes to ForeverBound, the composer. RobTop just used it in his game with ForeverBound’s permission.
  • man, you uploaded this after the game's 10 years anniversary! your videos never disappoint me, furthermore surprising! You are soooo dedicated to scratch!
  • @veronicaj.1075
    When I look for scratch tutorials on YouTube, I see projects with 20 variables. Your video explains everything in a simple way.
  • @DracraVR
    you have helped me learn so much about coding in scratch, my friends play your geometry dash game in school all the time and now I can make my own version! thank you so much

    I was waiting for this one, I've become obsessed with the little Geometry Dash scratch community :o Thank you for getting people so excited about gamedev <3

    Griffpatch, without you, I wouldn’t be able to code anything. You have made me an insane scratcher :)
  • @Chiller31916
    I followed your tutorial as much as I could & just posted what I made on Scratch. Looking forward to learning more!

    so well timed for the tenth anniversary, as a cataclysm victor and a scratcher i see this as an absolute w. very excited for the next tutorial, this one is very beginner friendly.
  • @SadStar69
    I’ve loved GD so much. And then you proceeded to upload this and help us make it ourselves. You’re always one step ahead of us griffpatch, keep up the good work!
  • @DubelAA
    This is why we like griffpatch. Not only does he explain in full detail including the outcomes and mistakes that could happen, but he shows every tiny detail within a quick time. Props to you man for coming all this way to help scratchers who want to become better at scratch.
  • @GD_toxic
    the first game of yours i ever played was your original geometry dash game, so seeing you come back to the idea is so amazing! And for the tenth anniversary of GD!
  • @erykovskyy4780
    i hope there is a part 2, recreating the other gamemodes would be very cool to do
  • @_koy_
    i would love for this to be a series. i mean. there is so much stuff in the original game
  • @jackys_handle
    11:30 half of me was expecting an explanation of modular arithmatic which would probably be a smidge faster but this is easier to understand and gives exactly the same results.
