Detail regarding the ending: I was the open verification contest winner and had the level within 3 runs and have been doing Tidal Wave for almost a whole Year. Though it was a Top 15 Version which was changed and buffed from Zoink once he took verification. Felt shocking to be moved however respect goes out to them. Crazey made the thumbnails which drawed attention for Tidal, and me, them and Zoink made Tidal possible for the public with Oni altogether. Hope this helps. !!
It was better than the Top 1. More consistent and not unnecessary spikes or chokepoints. I don't feel my opinion mattered once I was removed though.@@synkx
Both people here are right, 50k attempts on Tidal Wave tale more time and effort than 100k in acheron, but, it still is quite low considering how much other top 1 verifications took.
Im glad levels like tidal wave are starting to get released. Its nice to see a shift over to longer levels where consistency is the challenge rather than super short challenges.
I think this level is a breath of fresh air. "Top 1's" have been getting increasingly more like extended cancerous challenges, and this feels like an actual level. I really like it.
11:41 I did the thumbnail for the initial showcase OniLink did and got a dedication as well(nothing related to verification of the level). Again thanks Oni so much !! And great video Aeon !!
I personally don’t mind hell themed levels, as long as the gameplay is good. If the gameplay is fun to play, I don’t mind it. I don’t really care if there are many hell themed levels as long as the gameplay is good.
My biggest issue with the decoration is that it feels a bit off, maybe it's just the black mixed in with the yellow that doesn't look that good to me. But I think the sunset part looks pretty good in comparison. If the colors were tweaked a little I think it could be improved a lot
there's lots of issues with the deco, which is why i really don't like this level. i like the idea of shifting away from red hell demons, but i want it to be properly executed, and tidal wave really does not deliver
@@Anxmaly666 I think the worst part is just the colors and overuse of detail/copy paste that really distracts and kind of makes the whole thing feel unbalanced. Some more motion or depth would help too
I love this level already, I’ve been playing it mainly in 0.5 speed like you but it seems really fun. Also I think the level looks great and it’s nice to have a new themed top 1 we’ve not seen before. Probably my favourite top 1 since zodiac
I like how no one knows that if a level is laggy you can just pause the level and hit the retry button so it doesn’t lag. More effective on higher hertz though. It won’t work anymore if you pause and continue the level. But I doubt anyone will see this 🤷
So sad that this isn't getting rated. Despite the overwhelming majority of the player base wants it rated the mod team still refuses. Makes you think if they have our best interests at heart
The type of wave gameplay this level has is the type that I really enjoy (if it were easier of course) and I'm glad it's not just inconsistent, frame perfect timings, 7cps spam gameplay
Long levels like this should be the meta now. Apocalyptic Trilogy is in verification, and IIRC Flamewall and Ascension to Heaven are rly long. Also maybe Return 0 will be uncancelled in 2.2 hopium?
I love your videos Aeon! Keep up the great work. You are the only Geometry Dash UA-camr where I watch every video, even if I'm currently not in the mood to play gb. Btw, I believe there is repetition typo at the end of the description. "[...] but I appreciate you asking. you asking." Just making sure you dont copy the mistake to the next videos :)
This is definitely the Bloodbath of 2.1, Zoink is wayyy ahead of his time and Tidal Wave is gonna be high on the list for years, and I highly doubt anyone will beat this before 2.2
The fact that people are hating on a level they can't even beat is crazy, this is one of the best Top 1s ESPECIALLY considering that we finally don't have another stupid hell themed or grey-scaled level
I hate when people say that the detailing is bad, its actually great and really vibrant and on the other hand people love acheron which is almost like a full grey level. it seems like people just aren't used to non-hell themed levels.
The beach background’s simplicity and saturation in contrast with the detailed bright yellow and blue blocks is probably what makes me see this as pretty ugly but the end and the cave section look really cool
People criticizing the theme is annoying. I like how this doesn’t feel like a copy and paste over decorated level. Most levels now a days try to look good rather than unique
I think the problem most people have with the deco is that it’s very samey. Like the wave parts will have the same decoration with little variation for their entire duration, so it gets a little old since it’s such a long level
I Joined when zoink was at 70% and i was like "he's gonna choke again" and i was shocked to know that he beat it after 5 minutes cause i just left and now i feel dumb

@Crazey @OniLinkGD
Ah gotcha, thanks guys.
@Vaoen. Was the gameplay good in the top 15 version and if so does it carry over to the top 1 version?

a neat thing about this level is just the fact that it gives off positive vibes rather than having death as its theme

100% agree with that.

yup, acheron never seemed too interesting to me for that reason
Где ты видишь переход? Все эти уровни уже были и не факт, что это будет продолжаться и дальше
I agree, this is in my opinion the best top 1 since Zodiac.
This is a pretty good top 1
Also zoink is the first person to verify the top 3

Since there are so many comments I will say that I have a crush on Aeon.
Same.
Pin of shame @AeonAir
lol
true
I’m not gay but Aeon is just 🔥
It may be an unpopular opinion but I really like this level as a top 1. It’s so nice to not have a generic red and black hell level up there!
not unpopular
That's the most popular opinion about this level

Damn this level looks amazing
Nice to see a more light and vibrant level than the usual
this level gives me so much good vibes, and the deco being "more simple" than the current levels makes it so easy and good to look at

the block design and deco as a whole needs a revamp

My favorite top 1 in recent times tbh, I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of the song and the gameplay looks really fun!
This level has really grown on me since it was showcased. I actually really like it now.

Tbh this level is clean it has a super fun theme which most levels on the demon list dont
crazy to think that new top 1`s are popping up so fast
gg zoink for completing tidal wave it was insane watching you play, you have skills of a superhuman
I got jumpscared at the beginning xdd, great video as always Aeon(still watching but i can feel it!)
Even with low speed this level's gaps are still extreme demon worthy.
Yea no shit it's a top 1 it's obviously extreme demon worthy
@@NovaaZRyoure slow as fuck
the vibes in this level are immaculate
Water is good
Nice! And I am happy that today tidal wave got verified because I am a tidal wave fan new top 1
Today wabe
Nice job for Stormfly verifying Ice Carbon Diablo X! Very excited for this top-1.
So sad that this isn't getting rated. Despite the overwhelming majority of the player base wants it rated the mod team still refuses. Makes you think if they have our best interests at heart
I love Tidal Wave sm. I’ve always had an interest in the ocean and whatnot so I love seeing a beach themed Top 1

Imo rewatching this on zoinks stream was very fun lol and the vibe for once is happy not dark

just wanna say, the song that's used instead of the NONG song is actually a f*ckin banger
Take a shot every time he says “really”
Just f*cking kill me.
The fact that the levels posses a song that is popular in Rocket League makes me like the level more than usual
This is definitely the Bloodbath of 2.1, Zoink is wayyy ahead of his time and Tidal Wave is gonna be high on the list for years, and I highly doubt anyone will beat this before 2.2

Похоже, что люди не привыкли жрать говно
We need to encourage more happy and joysome levels for top levels again
It really like the beach part and the block design gives me a mosaic vibe
Zoink IS THE GOAT
hia reaction was insaaaane
The Tidal Wave drop transition is the equivalent of a video playing in a part of a high speed roller coaster.
SHIAWASE TOP1?? oh shit banger song inbound, one of the best in a long time, dion goes so hard
Tidal Wave feels more Geometry Dash. A defined style is always better than photorealism
What is this new bandwagon of hating realistic levels
To clarify btw, Crazey at the end is the person who made the showcase thumbnail :D
Zoink attempt count:
1.Tidal wave: 49k
2.Acheron: 72k
3.Avernus: 27k
Just woah
Yes, that means Tidal Wave is clearly not top 1.
@@RyanBloodborne Wdym? Ofc it is. zZoink got a nice skill boost and he even beats Top 10 levels in less than 6k att...
@@RyanBloodborneYeah because attempts mean everything and Zoink obviously hasn’t improved in the over a year since he beat Acheron.
@@Vision-ky7ew Skill boosts aren't real. Zoink was just tired of seeing Acheron as top 1, so he lied about Tidal Wave's difficulty.
@@laineyw7257 Yes, Zoink hasn't improved, the top 10 just got easier so beating a top 10 level with 6k attempts is not a big deal anymore.
Its def. A breath of fresh air considering that it is not hell themed
11:00 yeah I agree this part is awesome, the colors just work really well
This level has grown on me so much. From thinking it was just another throwaway top 1, to becoming one of my favorite top 1s ever.
The beach background’s simplicity and saturation in contrast with the detailed bright yellow and blue blocks is probably what makes me see this as pretty ugly but the end and the cave section look really cool
Really like the theme and music for this level! Gives me rocket league nostalgia

yeah the deco is also kinda of simple
Нет, проблема в том, что этом уровень просто плох, а люди будто закрывают глаза и не видят очевидных минусов.
