Geometry Dash Update 05.12.2017 May 2026

SUBJECT: Game Changelog & Analysis Report — Geometry Dash DATE: December 5, 2017 UPDATE VERSION: 2.11 STATUS: Released


5. Bug Fixes (The Actual Long List)

  • Fixed the "Black Screen on Start" bug for iOS 10.3 users.
  • Corrected a visual glitch where the Mirror Portal would double-reverse the Robot’s landing animation.
  • Patched the infamous "Infinite Jump Glitch" that allowed players to bypass the ending of a level by spamming pause.
  • Fixed the crash triggered by entering the Gauntlet menu while a song was buffering.
  • Removed a developer debug menu that allowed players to test untextured versions of upcoming 2.2 features (the Swing-Copter code was found inside, leading to two more years of rampant speculation).

6. Secrets & Hidden Content

New Trigger: "Camera Zoom"

  • Creators can now dynamically zoom the camera in and out during gameplay.
  • This allows for more cinematic levels and can make gameplay easier or harder by changing the player's field of view.

1. New Main Level: "The Challenge"

  • Difficulty: Hard Demon (unofficially rated by the community as Easy–Medium Demon)
  • Song: "The Challenge" by xTrull (later replaced/changed in some versions due to copyright issues)
  • A short but brutally difficult level designed specifically to test wave and ship control.
  • Unlocked by obtaining 10 User Coins (not Secret Coins).
  • Upon completion, players received a unique "Glow" color and an "Edge" icon set.
