who was the first geometry dash player this is a question that randomly popped into my head the other day and little did I know that it would lead me to make the most difficult to research video I've ever made so let me take you on my journey I began by looking at the oldest surviving user main level in Geometry Dash for answers ID 128 first level by real storm using the ultimate GD bot on Discord I was able to check the player ID of real storm just to find out that their account is suspiciously new but finding out that I could see both the player ID and account IDs in the ultimate GD bot was a very important Discovery my journey continued when I discovered robtop's Reddit account which is under the name zen robtop's old username at the very bottom of his profile I found a post on r slash iOS game and he made the day Geometry Dash came out and it was a flop it had only 12 upvotes and one comment but that comment was from a very important figure in Geometry Dash history darnak Dornoch was one of the first successful creators and one of the first people to ever play Geometry Dash I checked his account on the ultimate GD bot from earlier and discovered that his player ID is just 20. I then decided to check robtop's flag Rd and found that it was just 16. this is very important because we now have a foundation to work with it is likely that players 1 to 15 were just test accounts of robtop but players 17 to 19 could be actual players to joined even before darnock but unfortunately it is impossible to find their profile since they never registered an account meaning they'd likely quit or lost their accounts before the update 1.9 came out I eventually discovered that you could search up accounts with the ultimate GD bot by using their player IDs so I took it upon myself to look through every player ID all the way up to 50 and I found absolutely nothing other than our friends robtop and darnock so then I became desperate GD Wikipedia and Google were no help apparently no one else has tried exploring the question of who the first Geometry Dash players were so it was all up to me I decided that my best bet was to reach out to the most knowledgeable mind in all of Geometry Dash Mr Robert toppala I messaged him on Discord asking if he knew anything about the first pairs of Geometry Dash other than himself in darnak and he said this robtop didn't tell me anything I hadn't already figured out so now I was lost until I turned darnock my second best choice maybe he would have information robtop didn't since he was more in tune of the community the Clock Was ticking two days had passed by and he still hasn't responded until Suddenly at 2 am he told me about something called The Touch Arcade forums which was an old Forum website for mobile games and wait why is it called the Rocket this was a gold mine it's a complete Archive of the earliest Geometry Dash post ever of course I found darnak posted here very early on but that was only after a couple of other people the first person to ever Post in the Forum was a guy by the name of Bronx to keep that name in mind he went back and forth with a Rob type of her music and porting and some other questions he said he would download the game later that day so it's unlikely he was the first player although he was definitely early the next post was from someone named exact science who claimed GD was an insta buy which means they may have downloaded the game even before Bronx to after a random post of someone complimenting the trailer someone named Siddiqui said they downloaded already and were loving it this was posted before Bronx was finished asking robtop questions so once again it's likely the siddique we could download a geometry dash before bronsta after this someone named lolcat commented but they're only considering buying it at this point and they never made another Post in the form so chances are they just never even tried it out after this darnak commented and would continue commenting for a long time afterwards we already know that his player ID is 20 and Rob Top's idea is 16. so this means there are three possible people who joined before darnock the main two contenders so far are sadiqui and exact science although we concluded Bronx didn't play until after darnock he still plays a major role in this mission to find the oldest player while asking robtop questions about Geometry Dash drop top eventually linked this really rare Geometry Dash videos and replies which is actually the oldest Geometry Dash video on YouTube not uploaded by Rob top being uploaded a day before geometry even officially came out I can't believe this video hasn't talked about more first of all whoever was planning managed to perform one of the most impossible jumps in Geometry Dash without even realizing it Base After Base is harder difficulty and can't let go as insane difficulty and there's his cursed menu at the very end which I've never seen anyone talk about in my entire time playing Geometry Dash This is truly a forgotten piece of GG history but most importantly while on the icon editor the mysterious person recording this video reveals their name to be sanuku and upon checking the online section there are absolutely zero levels which means this sunuku person started playing before anyone could upload any level we know that darnak immediately started dabbling with the editor as documented in the aforementioned Touch Arcade forums uploading this level gravity field the day of geometry Dash's release which was ID 133 meaning mitsunuku player was online before darnak was even able to upload this level I suspect that sunuku was player 17 exact Sciences player 18 and Sadiq we was player 19. it's impossible to confirm if this is the order they joined in since none of them registered accounts by the time account registration came out in update 1.9 so this is just a theory a a game here but wait there's more there's still a big mystery to this all remember when I looked at first level by real storm earlier that ID was 128. darnock's first level was 133 and that was published the day that Geometry Dash was released so who is the storm person why is their player ID so high and is it possible they were actually playing even before darnock it's rumored that storm was hacked and the level was stolen and transferred between accounts somehow finding more information about storm in the first level has been very troubling and I've now hit a dead end storm may be exact silence or sadiqui or they could have joined before any of his players and just never posted on Touch Arcade so I'm leaving this to you guys if anyone can find more information about the first accounts of Geometry Dash please bring it to my attention let's make this a community effort I will upload follow-up videos if we can find more information and lost history about geometry of the oldest players feel free to subscribe so you don't miss out on my future videos thank you all so much for watching and have a fantastic day [Music]
