      There are numerous obstacles in the game.  To avoid, you will either have to fly, jump, or change the direction of gravity.  Tap to jump or change the direction of gravity and hold to fly.

      Geometry Dash jumps are usually on beat to a song.  If you are playing with your volume off, you should turn it on for a better experience.
  3. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/e\/e6\/Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-7.jpg\/v4-460px-Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-7.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/e\/e6\/Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-7.jpg\/v4-728px-Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-7.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fair_use\">Fair Use<\/a> (screenshot)<br>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
      When you do so, the level will speed up and may change game mode.  There usually are obstacles around these, so if you miss, you will have to start the level over.
  4. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/0\/0c\/Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-8.jpg\/v4-460px-Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-8.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/0\/0c\/Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-8.jpg\/v4-728px-Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-8.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fair_use\">Fair Use<\/a> (screenshot)<br>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
      Practice mode automatically generates checkpoints when you jump or land right before obstacles.  You can try individual parts of these levels without worrying about starting over, though you do not get the level music playing in the background.
  5. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/4\/4c\/Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-9.jpg\/v4-460px-Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-9.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/4\/4c\/Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-9.jpg\/v4-728px-Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-9.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fair_use\">Fair Use<\/a> (screenshot)<br>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
      These are colored circles floating in midair and on platforms.  Doing so will reverse the direction of gravity or cause you to jump up.
  6. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/1\/19\/Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-10.jpg\/v4-460px-Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-10.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/1\/19\/Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-10.jpg\/v4-728px-Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-10.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fair_use\">Fair Use<\/a> (screenshot)<br>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
      This coin is usually in a hard to reach place.  Doing so yields bonus points.
  7. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/a\/aa\/Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-11.jpg\/v4-460px-Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-11.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/a\/aa\/Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-11.jpg\/v4-728px-Play-Geometry-Dash-Step-11.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fair_use\">Fair Use<\/a> (screenshot)<br>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
      Once you reach the end, you will have effectively cleared the level.  This will also unlock the next level. Continue playing levels as desired.

    What are the 3 easiest easy demons in Geometry Dash?
    RubyPiec
    Community Answer
    It depends on your opinion, but these are 3 decent picks: 1. Demon Mixed, the easiest, it's a mix of multiple demons but it takes the very easy parts. 2. The Lightning Road: You die a few times at 85%, it has a few memory parts, but other than that it's pretty easy. And 3. The Nightmare: the most popular demon because of how easy it is, not much to say here, a few memory parts.

    How can I beat silent circles now?
    RubyPiec
    Community Answer
    It is currently impossible to beat Silent Circles for a human, with hacks (for example by downloading MegaHack v5) it is only possible by Noclipping, speedhacking (very difficult) or instant level complete hack, along with other hacks that let you beat any level.

    Whenever you hit an obstacle (spikes, edges, etc.), it kills you and restarts the level.
