I rely on things like Patreon and YT Members to continue making big videos like this.
Patreons get a sneak peek behind the scenes and I will constantly show progress on new videos there.
I spent the past 7-8 months working on this video... I hope I was able to do Silent Clubstep and everyone involved justice.
Thank you to everyone who helped me make this video. I couldn't do this without you.

[I AM IN NEED OF HELP]
Howdy partners, enjoy the movie 🍿
This was a really long journey but finally after 8 months I got this video done. I hope I was able to deliver something that lives up to the legacy this level left behind.
As you can see with this video we introduced a big change from 2d to 3d. I learned Blender and Unity for this and I truly believe that 3d will allow me to express myself better going forward.
However, making videos is hard enough as it is so we are looking for paid additional help to refine and stylize the character + work flow.
If you have any experience with Blender + modeling characters for video games, or if you are a 2d artist who would be able to quickly sketch up new ideas and concepts please join my Discord server and shoot me a private message. (Please include pictures of past projects so we can judge who would be a good fit)
I'd love to gather a team of enthusiasts who want to help me push technology to its limits.
I have no clue how many people will be interested in this so I'll edit this comment the moment we found who we are looking for.
[CLOSED, WE FOUND WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR]
Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to watch my videos. It means the world to me.
A late merry christmas and a happy new year,

Okay that bit with the "draw a circle" chalkboard may be the funniest bit I've ever seen in a youtube video
Thank you so much!! ❤️

your little OC scenes are insanely well done. I'm so glad you figured out how to express yourself in this way, it's what i want to see

as a gd player of 7-8 years, this is the most shocking thing ive witnessed. Silent Clubstep, long clickbaited and revered as impossible and hard actually being beaten is so stupidly impressive to me. Its crazy.
yoo horizon i love ur vids :)

Yeah I remember you talking abt nine circles on somebody’s stream or vid or smth like a year ago, didn)t expect you to be here lol

Bro really put Hollywood level of editing on a full hour long video about a single GD level, bruh how dedicated can you be? I wish I had half your motivation, that was really well made!
4:06 this was funny
I am utterly astonished that this hour-long documentary about seemingly the simplest and least interesting game you could think of has cracked my top 5 best videos of all time list. There is this untouchable level of elegance within that most others, many of which being quite famous in their own right, simply cannot achieve.
It's all brought to life in some of the most gorgeous editing and transitions in any video i've ever seen. The way frames phase into each other with every change of topic, or pulsate outwards to a new clip of gameplay, is absolutely enthralling every time. Not even mentioning the vastly upgraded graphics to your avatar and its backgrounds. It really makes this video in particular feel so much more special in comparison. This is the kind of editing i'd like to see in every video commentary.
Of course, good animation and editing by themselves don't make a compelling piece of art. An engaging story is obviously the most important attribute to get right, and i'd argue this is where the video's greatest quality lies.
I'm not going to mince words here: this is, without a doubt, the best video game story ever told on this platform (and by "video game story", I mean a story about others playing the video game) which is really impressive, considering the game literally boils down to "pressing the button at the right time". It goes to show how well a good storyteller can make you invested in what at first seems to be the simplest of topics.
And investing it truly is. Silent Clubstep was the perfect level to dedicate an entire video to, especially one of this quality, despite how simple it would look to a newer player compared to the modern levels we see today. This is why i'd argue that identity is the most important thing a level needs to be remembered, even more so than aesthetics or raw difficulty (lookin' at you, Avernus).
It was the infamy so perfectly explained and hyped up throughout the first half of the video that made it so different from other levels. What set it apart from levels like Cataclysm, Bloodbath, Sonic Wave, Tartarus or Slaughterhouse wasn't just its difficulty, but just the fact that it was Silent Clubstep. I doubt it would've taken so many years to start seeing progress if people didn't have those infamous choke points like the Straight Fly, The Dual, or The 8 Jumps Of Hell constantly looking down on them, seemingly unreachable in their impossibility (which, in the case of those layered orbs, was actually true for the longest time). Speaking of, those individual sections are another reason why this level is so interesting to talk about. When you play Silent Clubstep, you aren't just playing Silent
Clubstep. You're playing the Straight Fly, the Orb Spam (that abominable jump after the orb spam), the face-melting ship speeds, the layered orbs, that godawful dual, the eight jumps of hell, and the invisible memory maze that goes on for WAY too long, all of them being in almost complete darkness. Not even just the sections themselves, but the way they're placed in the level is seemingly tailor-made to psychologically condition the playerbase to look on it in fear. With that evil straight fly near the beginning to instantly crush your motivation (but not too close so you couldn't just throw attempts at it until it broke) and the memory maze at the end to play with your nerves and make you choke, it almost feels like the level has it's own malevolent conciseness, with the sole purpose of breaking it's players down to the bone. Or at least, that’s what it feels like through the lens of your masterful storytelling.
It’s exactly like you said at 42:10: levels with specific sections that overshadow everything around them with their difficulty feel so much more meaningful, and give its best players something to fight toward, something for its rallying observers to cheer for. I would absolutely agree that that is the most magical part of this community.
Each of these horrifying sections are all given the fear, respect and detail they deserve in the video, to the point that they almost feel like their own independent levels. Heck, for The Eight Jumps Of Hell, that actually happened.
All in all, this level was the perfect subject for a video, but it’s not the only factor that makes this story so perfect. After all, what’s an impossible challenge without the brave souls that take it on, not despite its difficulty, but BECAUSE of it?
Breaking The Wall and onward is what changes this story from great to downright phenomenal. Several top players collaborating to push the limits of human domination in a game (usually through speedrunning) is an incredibly cool story by itself, but 10 of the best players in the world pushing themselves and each other to just beat the level in the first place, especially one with this level of history and infamy? That is something really special.
Unlike most impossible level verifications, which feel like a race between top players for the victory, this one is portrayed as a genuine team effort against the level itself, with everyone building off of each others success to push progress further. Zobros’s presentation that first pushed the level into the limelight, heralding what would later lead to a renaissance of improvement. Just as important, if a bit less flashy, were Emirate, Error and Earthrex’s determination providing hope in the early days, clawing forward percent after percent after percent through the years when the Straight Fly still stood tall. Once Icedcave and Sailent updated the level, Septagon took up the mantle alongside Error and Icedcave, actually giving Silent Clubstep a run for its money. And not soon after, Hyperbola would at long last pull out the sledgehammer and break through the demonic Straight Fly in what is without a doubt the best and most powerful scene in the video. The explosion of bright colors against the dark background as Hyperbola exits the Straight Fly, with the beautiful violin building to its climax, make for such a moving and magical moment. There is only one word that comes to mind at this part, and that’s CINEMA.
Also, how the HELL have I gone this far without mentioning the music? Every track sells the emotion of the story perfectly, whether it be the fun and almost mechanical themes during the explanation of its worst choke points, the somber importance of its histories biggest milestones, the energetic rush of adrenaline as so many top players threw attempt after attempt after attempt at the wall of Silent Clubstep, in the hopes that the next might finally be the one to break it down. Every track suits its placement just as well as in the SpaceUK duology.
After seeing how the level haunted so many of the older players, watching Hyperbola single-handedly stand up to this behemoth, taking it apart segment after segment, feels so cathartic after everything we’ve seen of the level. Hyperbola almost feels like a personification of how much the community had improved over the years, acting as the pioneer for others to rise up in his stead, as well as maybe the best player overall between everyone here, going from that monumental 11%, to 9-25%, to 48-100%, and finally, the mind-boggling 24-100%, completely skipping a four-segment run. Beyond just progress, he also drew in so much attention to the Silent Clubstep grind, which I can imagine only inspired more people to take up the cause and take Silent Clubstep on themselves. Among these players was Vision, who would compete with Hyperbola for the deepest playthrough, and Paqoe, who would dominate the level’s most infamous section, and later, lead the final push to 100%.
(UA-cam thought this was too long, so I continued it in replies)
This second half is absolutely the best part of the video. Everything from the editing to the colors to the music to even the small clips of euphoria from the players masterfully puts the viewer in the shoes of the younger community, suddenly realizing that this monster that had loomed over them for almost 7 years suddenly didn’t seem so untouchable.
Vision and Hyperbola’s tug-of-war of PB’s was interesting enough, but the moment Paqoe jumped in and beat them both to the world’s first drop run took it to a whole new level.
(also, I didn’t mention it before, but the comedy is very strong throughout the video, my favorite joke is your constant hatred of the physics engine-hretz correspondence).
The Last Battle is some of the most exhilarating content out there, with Vision, Hyperbola and Paqoe all coming together to finally put Silent Clubstep to rest. From 25 to 27 to 31 to 65, all backdropped by the incredible gt3 race menu OST, the perfect track for the hypest montage (I’ve also heard it utilized by Summoning Salt in speedrunning montages. You, my friend, are a man of good taste). Every moment, every percent, every inch of progress made feels so powerful, from “I made it to the drop” all the way up to that f***ing beautiful “Level Verified” screen at the exact 1:00:00 mark. The radiant white perfectly contrasting the pitch blackness of the level we’ve seen for the last hour.
It really says a lot about a level when, after almost 9 years of difficulty power creep, it still sits in the top 3 of the demonlist, (Avernus isn’t real, Avernus can’t hurt you) beating out hundreds of level that came before and after it.
This is one of those videos that just doesn’t feel real. I’m shuddering to think about how much effort must have gone into crafting every aspect of this perfect story. There really isn’t a single thing I can critique about it, and I cannot praise its best qualities enough. I think it’s gonna stay in my top 3 favorite video ever for a long, long time (if you’re wondering, the other two are Super Eyepatch Wolf’s “What the Internet did to Garfield” and Moxie2D’s “100 Days in a Pokemon Nuzloke”).
It’s the kind of video that makes UA-cam feels like the medium of artistry its meant to be.
It’s the kind of video that deserves this level of praise.

Truly. Paqoe is crazy
This is one of the most well edited videos I've ever watched. I loved all the little details that gave the video so much more life and all the little skits in between. A lot of those had me laughing a ton throughout the whole video. Been binge watching a lot of videos on GD history to catch up since I'm getting back into it for 2.2 and I'm really glad I found your channel. The hard work put into this video really shows, keep it up! :D
It is insane to see how your content has grown throughout your channel's existence. Your documentary style videos are honestly some of the best thing that has come out of the Geometry Dash community ever! Thank you so much for your dedication to Geometry Dash and its history, and have a great day! 🥰
WHATTT 1 HOUR JESUS CHRIST
you are not human
This is really incredible. This video rewards you paying attention to detail. That glowing jump count at the end was SO SPINE CHILLING and if you just skipped the video, you wouldn't understand what that meant. What it meant to memorize those jump numbers. Everything in this video is a masterpiece.
I will fully support works of art at this level of quality. Never have I even felt so emotional to a video before and YOU did the best job to explaining every tiny detail to someone who is new to the game. GD is a game has so much art and I always wished someone to make an in dept video on all the amazing stuff the community has done. This video is something I would spend at least $10 to see. Your editing and style will inspires others now and years down the line. Cant wait to see more one of a kind content.
Thank you so much Welkin!!! ❤️
I’ve watched the whole video now. Despite being in the community for the entirety of this level’s history, I didn’t know close to the whole story. Thank you, Sami, for telling the story in-depth with so many interesting details. This video has insanely high production quality from start to finish. It’s definitely the best video I’ve ever seen about the game thus far, and the previous one was The Player That Changed Geometry Dash Forever, another video by you. I hope you’ll be able to make videos as good as this, or perhaps even better, in the future. With that, I don’t mean to put any pressure on you. From seeing you work on this over the last 6 months, I know how fun you find making these videos, and also how dedicated you are. Just keep doing your thing and I’m certain it'll lead to even more success. I know you’re not doing this for numbers, but if there’s any content in the community that deserves the most amount of subscribers and views, it’s you and your videos. Once again, thank you for making such amazing content, Sami. I love you.
OMG THANK YOU VIPRIN 😭
Coming from you this means the world to me. This game has shaped who I am as a person so I try my god damn hardest everytime I make a video about it.

As a video editor myself I can say that the way you edited this was just superb. Really high quality without ever making it feel like it was too much it just added so much to the documentary. Good stuff!
U dont need to be an editor to know that its amazing editing, if u did then it wouldnt be good editing 😂
@@patar00 if u needed to be a good editor to realise/notice good editing, then it wouldnt be good editing
@pyxlated2767 it makes sense to me. One might not realize how difficult some of the editing is, but its easy to see (as a non editor myself) on a non technical level, that alot of time and care was taken to create this video. I do play guitar, but i think this is a fitting analogy: one doesn't need to know how to play to know when people are good at it.
@pyxlated2767 well is it really good editing if the average person doesn't notice/realize that it's good editing? That's all im saying

Amazing editing and beautiful story telling Samifying, you kept me HOOKED the WHOLE time and really taught me about the real impact Silent Clubstep had on our community

You genuinely have my upmost respect when it comes to pushing out content. Please keep making bangers like these, its really inspiring.
I really like how you explain the relevant information about how the game works (to understand the difficulty of Silent Clubstep) in a simple manner that even people who have never played the game can understand, with many different clips to visualize what you are currently talking about. The progress timeline helps us keep up with all the milestones, and your positive personality really shines through as well, making the video all the more interesting and entertaining to watch. As someone who has been playing the game ever since 1.7, it felt like an awesome throwback to the old days, too.
Of course, the editing of this entire video is outstanding, unlike any other GD video I have ever seen.
Long story short: This is a masterpiece! Well done, Sami!
-----
Here's an additional "fun" fact about Silent Clubstep itself:
In the 1.9 version, the diagonal fly sections in the drop as well as the first not-so-straight fly were actually *easier*, as you were able to control the vertical movement of the ship more easily. However, this also meant that regular straight fly sections (such as in Bloodbath) were much harder.
With the 2.0 update, these ship physics were changed in order to make straight fly easier, but at the expense of diagonal fly becoming harder - which meant the already ridiculous ship sections in Silent Clubstep became even more ridiculous.
(source: Stormfly's older video about the history of this level)
it's crazy that Silent Clubstep isn't even considered the hardest anymore and there are STILL levels being made that are getting even harder, pushing the limit even further.
This is not a video. This is a movie. True dedication and grit to make something like this. Top-tier editing and the most engaged I’ve ever been in a video. Hats off to you Sami, hats off to you.
I would love to sit down on the couch, get a warm blanket, snacks and some drinks to settle down and watch this legendary piece of art on my TV. It’s so good dude. The story behind the history of “Silent clubstep” by TheRealSailent always satisfies me, no matter where I am. Samifying is an outstanding storyteller and video editor, and the dedication to make the quality of the video so good to the point of where it outmatches almost every single documentary in Geometry Dash.
I absolutely love everything about this video, or may I say MOVIE! I love the editing, the 3D avatar, the story, the humor and how you can keep the tension throughout the entire video and of course everything else!
The wait was completely worth it and I hope you keep creating those masterpieces!!
I'm at a loss of words for this video. This is insane man, one of the best pieces of media I have watched in my lifetime. Everything is top-notch, the story-telling, the music, the editing, just wow. I just love the fact that you made sure to let us know the absurdity of the level before you got into the people actually conquering these absurdities, it gives so much needed perspective and context for each part and I think you executed it perfectly.
As for the story itself, I've played GD for quite a while, but only have a few periods in my life where I actually played it a decent amount. I've heard of many of the things you've mentioned in this video but was never involved in any community or whatever myself. This video and the impossible levels video really gave so much information on the fronts of the community behind levels that I had heard of at some point. I've heard of silent clubstep many times, but wow what an insane story the level has, spanning almost the entire history of GD's existence.
Thanks for making this video. I really appreciate it.
The editing in this video is monumental.
It gives me goosebumps seeing how much effort you've put into this it. From the crazy entire 3d MOVEIS and animations to the amazing effects. The story behind this level is way more intriguing than I thought. Having you in the Geometry dash community is a true apprechiated blessing.
Holy shoot dude, I finally got the chance to sit down and watch this, since I really wanted to watch it all in one sitting without interruptions. This video was insanely well crafted!! I absolutely love your story-telling abilities complimented by your really cool editing. Your videos have always been insanely good, and I’m so happy to see another banger upload from you, especially since this has definitely been long-awaited. The hype around this did not disappoint, and I admire the time and dedication you put into these documentary styled videos. This donation isn’t much but at least it’s something to really show my appreciation for you and your content. Thanks for being the person you are, and I look forward to seeing what you have in store for us in 2023!!
Also I love your new 3D fox model, it’s so cute!! 🧡
Edit: and I love the small touches in the video that make the experience so much more enjoyable, like when the numbers and arrows started appearing at 59:40. That gave me goosebumps.
1 part of me is like "ew furry cirnge" but the other part regognizes how FIRE thise content is like omg...
You need more subscribers man, this video is absolutely incredible. The parts where you use vrchat (im guessing), the pacing, it's just amazing.
I actually love how you integrated a context for people who might not know too much about geometry dash, and the song choice at 3:32 was perfect (best creo song)
I think you could have gotten away with a lot of a shorter intro though, even to people who are new it feels too drawn out, but for the rest of the video the pacing was so perfect!!
I can't emphasise how good the storytelling was though, and it was also super funny at a lot of points.
keep up this sort of content!
Thank you for the feedback!!!
I'm already working on improving pacing for future videos!
@@Samifying you did a really good job man. also, if you find that your retention graph in youtube studio dips sharply at the start, you can always edit out some slower parts in the intro, it’s a common tactic. you just go to the video in youtube studio and click edit. hope i could help!
As a person who doesn't know anything about geometry dash and isn't interested in the game, I want to say that this video is absolutely incredible! No matter I know nothing about gd, you made every game mechanic clearly explained and made it extremely fun to watch. Since your video about FunnyGame I started watching your content and I impatiently waited for your new video. Here it is and it's even more amazing than I expected! The quality of it is 1000% higher than last ones.
Thanks so much for your content mate!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!! Thanks for sticking with me!
8:48 OKAY THIS IS OFFICIALY MY FAVOURITE VIDEO EVER HE WHIPPED OUT THE METRO MAIN MENU THEME 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
i love your editing style so much and can’t believe how much time it would’ve took to edit and do everything else
Sami, you never cease to amaze me. I would go on for paragraphs and paragraphs about how amazing this video is, but I’ll save you an hour of your time lmaoooo
Absolutely stellar video, can’t wait for your next projects 💙
hey mathgenius i thought of your video on silent clubstep when i saw this
What a masterpiece this was. I honestly can't wrap my head around the idea of someone spending 8 months and literally learning both blender and unity just so they could make a funny documentary about a mobile game in which you jump over spikes as a cube. You're probably the most talented video creator in the community at the moment, and the competition is quite good as well. While a lot of people can make extremely well made and heavily researched documentaries, i honestly can't think of anybody at your level. Insane stuff, keep it up.
This is a cinematic masterpiece, your comedy, the stock photo, the editing, the 3 dimensional creature, it made me cry (I didn’t cry I am a man)
59:30 when the music turns hopeful ant the level isn't black and white anymore is such a fucking good part. The editing is insane.
Incredible video. It's crazy how much you've refined your style in such a short amount of time and I absolutely nerded out during the VRChat segments. You're the gold standard and an inspiration to many other GD content creators
no one in the entire platform matches your quality, amazing work, love seeing your character finally become alive like this! ❤️
Eso decis porque no ves otros canales

ive watched this single video almost 6 times in it's entirety. you are BY FAR one of the most underrated and talented content creators in the geometry dash community (yes, knowing that you have nearly 100k subscribers), and honestly produce some of the highest quality content on all of youtube. keep making bangers and i hope to see where you go from where you are now
This video is absolutely incredible, 200k is a criminally low amount of views for a video of this quality
This is actually the BEST video ever uploaded in 2022 about GD.
I love how you tell this insane history about Silent Clubstep and make every moment a unique topic. This deserves MILLIONS of view.
We all love you Sami ❤️✨
Samifying, you did a fantastic job on this. From the editing, research, tone and humor of this video, it all just made it super engaging to watch. We all appreciate how much detail you go into just to have us grasp how monumental these kinds of things are for the community. Fantastic job :).
(Sidenote, really appreciate you putting the song titles in the corner of the video each time they pop up, you have great taste in music and being able to listen to it later through this convenience is something I personally appreciate.)
after many years of attempts, its kinda sad that it was almost instantly dethroned by archeron
Im not joking when I say that that 49:50 part makes use of soundtrack IMPRESSIVELY, it gave me chills and made me repeat it like 10 times 🛐. As someone who has liked music AND movies for pretty much all my life, I naturally pay close attention to the sounds that are there to make a scene feel or transmit something, and that right there is without a doubt in my mind one of the best, if not the BEST USE OF SOUND I've seen in all of UA-cam, and to see it on a GD video, a game that, like you, has marked me since it came out is absolutely amazing, the GD community is so lucky to have you amongs them you have no idea, keep up the AMAZING WORK my dude.
PD: Your avatar is absolutely adorable 🥰
Wow the production quality on this video is insanely good considering its a full *1 hour* documentary, this is honestly one of the best and highest quality gaming documentaries i've seen on UA-cam, amazing job

@@TheGalaxyWings so true

22:44 MY BAD WTF
LOL
what in the flying cat simulator
@@Samifying I just want to say that this video is amazing. I remember seeing Zobros' practice run in 1.9 and thinking that no one would ever beat this. It's crazy how far this game has come!
With my copyable: I genuinely forgot where I got my original copy... That was over seven years ago and my memory isn't great. The discrepancy got worse when Sailent nerfed the original level and I didn't even know about it. However, although not as necessary now, my copyable is now accurate, as I updated it when Paqoe verified the level!! I hope my old, inaccurate copy didn't alter history on accident! I actually tried to contact elder mods to remove the level at some point, but no one ever did. It's still weird to think about how some silly little decision I made in 2015 still has some effect on the game today! Thank you for including that in this legendary video. :)
LOL NAH BRO 😭🥲
I've watched and rewatched this video so many times, and it means a lot to me having grown up with GD since 2013/2014, seeing the rise and fall of many periods in the game. This video is a great documentary of history that we shouldn't take for granted. Everything about this video is great- The tone is spot-on, the music is great, I love the furry comedy bits, the progression and pacing of the progress keeps me at the edge of my seat even if I know what happens every time. Great job on this
20:55 MY FAVOURITE SPEEDRUN
I can't believe we live in a timeline where Silent Clubstep is not only verified, but isn't even the hardest thing we've done.
Really solid video, top tier editing, hope it gets the views it deserves. 💙
??????
I've just started it and I'm already tweakin bro
I wonder if the next video could be about yata or a player. Just have to wait and see.
Seriously one of my favorite videos on this entire website. The storytelling and beautiful balancing of the comedic, relaxed moments and the cinematic, dramatic moments in telling the tale of this level is seriously awe-inspiring.
This has to be one of the best videos on UA-cam, the editing, the humor and jokes are all great, and you are really good at explaining things to people, I didn't even know what this level was, and I was still invested in the video!
I like the little fox :)
NICK OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH
Bro so much wtf
21:47 I was expecting a silent joke but I didn’t expect that LMFAO I’m really enjoying this vid so far! You obviously put in a lot of effort into this video!
I ve never seen such a documentary with this high editing in it since Summining salt videos, your avatar/model is amazing too, keep going man.
Honestly this video made me cry
It's so beautiful to see the community being in "fight" and being together at the same time just because of a level
Commenting this while halfway through the video but I gotta hand it to you man, the visuals, editing and storytelling so far are top-fucking-notch. Definitely one, if not, the best documentary you've made thus far. Really great job, Sami!
This is probably the best edited Geometry Dash video I've seen in my existence of the game. Very inspiring and the VR parts are so dang gorgeous and funny. I feel like you deserve so much more as a GD content creator, and I wish you the greatest of luck out there in the wild. Thanks for the epic movie my man and just want to remind you how awesome your skills are through the GD community and you're going places.
Man your videos have probably become one of my favorite parts of this community by now. The editing is on point. Ur gute arbeit ;)
This is one of the most well-crafted GD videos I have ever seen. The mocap, the animations, storytelling and commentary, ALL of it was just masterful. I can't wait to see the stuff you have planned for the future!
So much care was put into this video, and it made for some of the finest GD content I've ever experienced. Even some of the smaller edits such as the jump/fall counter at 59:40 gives the video so much character, and it makes watching that so much better. I will more than happily wait another 8 months (or more) if it means we get to see more of this kind of stuff. I wish nothing but the best of luck on your future projects!
This video is so cool on so many levels, I don't even know where to begin. Genuinely this is amazing and it was so much fun to watch. Thank you so much for making this
The geometry dash youtube community is so underrated, this channel deserves more subs than so many other people
unironically one of the best videos in the gd community. it's layed out in a way that new people joining the came can understand it, the editing is obviously a 10/10, and all your points (except for the new silent clubstep thing imo) can be agreed upon 99.9% of the community, which is silent nowadays. absolutely wonderful
Dude, props to you man. The editing, voice acting, and script are all top tier throughout the whole video. Was waiting to see this video for a while, and gotta say, you did it so much justice for the struggle endured for years.
Bro the production quality is insane! Keep doing what ur doing sam!
This is one of the best videos ever released by a member of this community. Amazing job Sami! btw what is that texture pack name at 16:04
You by far have become my new favorite Gd content creator. The engagement, the dedication, the humor and education. I even watched the whole sponsor section. Cant wait to see what you upload next year!!
12:15 JUST LIKE ME FR
Also this is unironically the best video I've seen about Geometry Dash, there is nothing I can say to emphasize how impressively well edited and put together this video is, thank you for making this video!
This is the best Geometry Dash Video I have ever seen! Amazing Effects, Good Story and so much more! Keep up the Amazing Work!
21:48, You read my mind, Samifying.
this is legitimately so impressive to watch
this video literally creates a whole new era of geometry dash documentaries
never would I thought that a harmless video uploaded by zorroz would have so much lore
What video?
Dude I actually felt like I was watching a full on movie in the theaters. I’m a film nerd and this just caught my attention as it is edited so well. I hope you are proud of yourself man, this is a masterpiece. Keep up the amazing work!
I stopped playing three years ago and if I heard this back then I wouldn't have believed you. I'm shedding actual tears right now. This is pure insanity.
I never got to add a member comment so I'll add one now before I forget. This was so well done, really made me laugh and have some tears at some parts because of how well done it was. The work put into this was so amazing and I really cannot wait for more! (also, glad I could be a member and support the channel! )
Thank you so much Impaled!!!
This feels almost like one of those official full-length documentaries, and it does a really good job bringing people into the game. Amazing content
This has to be the best GD documentary on the internet right now, sat down and watched the entire thing, absolutely amazing job Sam! It was really worth the wait👌🎉
this is such an amazing video!! definitely the most well-edited I've ever seen. ALSO i love your sona and how you incorporated them into your video. they're so cute ^^
seriously such an amazing video. personally would have loved to see you break the top 5 content creators. not only is the editing clean but it's extremely fun to watch. really looking forward to your next project.
