    13:17 you can also get hyphens in the name by typing the integer limit of 2147483647 and making a copy, as it will try to add one but just add a hyphen. You can continue making copies and it will just keep adding hyphens, and it can even go over the character limit. Would also like to add there are two rated levels (1. Beggining of Time and 2. PolarDream both by xDream) that somehow have periods in the name

    1:11 I noticed that while playing a 4 star level: I saw that the number of orbs I collected was equal to my percentage, so since the orbs I should have collected by the end of the level was 125, this way I would have collected only 100 orbs, therefore I theorised 1/5 of the orbs was kept for once you finish the level. Then, comparing that with other difficulties I realised I was correct

      I actually use NA colors when I need a static color for objects that can be pasted freely into other levels.
      The game is only missing a unoccupied static blending color. Right now your choice is either LBG (good for invisibility but not much else) or Line (assuming the level creator didn't take the blending away for whatever reason).

    More useless things:
    Before Update 1.4, the ship was only one color.
    When you unlock a color before 2.0, the color graphic on the achievement unlocked notification window was a square instead of a circle.
    Also before the same update, the achievement unlocked notification window effect was different.
    You can expand a gamemode's boundaries by spamming the same portal over and over.
    The Options menu is different depending on the version you are playing. If you are on mobile, a "Record Replays" option is shown, but in the Steam version, it is replaced with a graphics option.
    Speaking of replays, you can't see your replays since Everyplay, the recorder, is discontinued, but if you disable Wi-Fi, it will be shown.
    Before Update 1.9, Electroman Adventures was a Harder level instead of an Insane level.
    The Music and Sound Options were changed in a few updates.
    In 1.0 and 1.1, they were Music note and Speaker buttons that toggle the audio on or off.
    From 1.2 to 1.9, they were check boxes that said "Music" and "SFX".
    In 2.0 and beyond, the check boxes were replaced with sliders. The original music and sound buttons in the 1.0 update however, are still in the game's files.
    The BPM button however, IS USED, but until update 1.8 which was replaced by the play test option.

    Extra fact: if you set a custom color to white, black, or, if I recall correctly, other grayscale colors, the hue wheel will sometimes be set to something that it wasn’t normally set to. For example, setting a custom color to white, the hue wheel will automatically change to red. If the hue wheel is very far from pure red, it might automatically change to something like cyan.

    14:27 back in the earlier versions of the game, before newgrounds songs where introduced in GD, the BPM button would be used for well... the BPM of each main songs while still being different from the song's lines (not too sure if that's the right name though lol) as those are based on the sync and sound of the song and not the BPM itself
    This can be used, for example, for pulsating background colors of a level (or even the lines if you feel like it) since it would be pretty much useless to sync them to sync of the music and not the BPM
