'''Back On Track''' is the second level of [[Geometry Dash]] and [[Geometry Dash Lite]] and the second level with an Easy difficulty.


==Description==
==Description==
Back on Track introduces yellow jump pads in the ways of both function and potential hazard. There is only one ship sequence midway through, and there are also no triple spikes. 
Back On Track introduces the yellow jump pad in ways of both function and potential hazard, leading to more varied jump manoeuvres.


The level starts with a cube sequence which requires somewhat more precise jumping and sliding than the sequences in Stereo Madness, while introducing the yellow jump pads.
A single ship sequence takes place from 49% to 66%.


The ship sequence in the middle of the level requires the user to press longer than in Stereo Madness, as it requires the player to fly up and down on the screen rather than just staying in the middle.
==Secret coins==
*The first secret coin is located at 41% and collected as the cube. After descending a short flight of platforms, jumping onto a series of connected platforms with a spike on one, jump twice up two more platforms before sliding to the ground onto a concealed gravity pad that will launch into a gravity portal and then the coin, returning to the main route.
*The second secret coin is located at 55% and collected as the ship. Manoeuvre around the first two obstacles and fly into a gap in the third obstacle to collect the coin within.
*The third secret coin is located at 84% and collected as the cube. After passing through three block columns and travelling along three series of connected platforms, jump twice up two more narrow platforms before sliding onto a concealed line platform below the main route. Jump over a gap onto the second line platform to collect the coin and reach a jump pad to return, immediately jumping again to clear an oncoming spike upon landing.


The final cube sequence is similar in difficulty to the first one, but the final 5-10% of the level seems to be challenging for new players.

== Secret coins ==
This level is arguably the easiest official level to collect all of the [[Secret Coins|secret coins]], along with [[Base After Base]].
*The first secret coin is located roughly three quarters of the way through the cube section, not too far before the first ship sequence. After descending a short flight of platforms onto a particularly outstretched one with a spike on it, jump twice up two more platforms before sliding to the ground to find a hidden gravity pad that will launch into the hovering coin, then into a gravity portal which returns you to the main path. The background is reddish pink when the coin is passed.
*The second secret coin is located within the third large obstacle once engaging the ship sequence. Manoeuvre around the first two obstacles and fly up into a gap in the third to collect the coin inside. Make sure not to fly too high or you can crash while exiting the obstacle. The background is purple where the coin is found.
*The third secret coin is located just after the point the background turns from pink to blue after the ship sequence, but must be led into beforehand. Following the travel through three block columns and three slim platforms close to the ground, jump twice up two platforms before sliding onto a partly concealled line platform below the main route. Be weary and jump over a short gap onto the second line platform to collect the coin and reach a jump pad to return back, but immediately jump again to clear an oncoming spike when landed.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Back on Track was originally rated as normal until it was changed in [[Update 1.9]].
*Prior to [[Update 1.9]], Back On Track possessed a Normal difficulty.
*Back on Track reveals the first gravity portal and gravity pad used to collect a secret coin, although gravity portals and gravity pads are not formally introduced until [[Dry Out]] and [[xStep]] respectively. This was due to [[Update 1.6]] introducing the Secret Coins to all levels, when both of those features were already available.
*Back On Track reveals the gravity portal and cyan gravity pad as part of collecting a secret coin, although they are not formally introduced until [[Dry Out]] and [[xStep]] respectively.
*The "on" in Back on Track is capitalised on its level selection item, while the song name is not.
*Back On Track takes 84 seconds to complete and requires a minimum of 86 jumps.
*Completing the level takes approximately 1 minute and 24 seconds.
**Uses the first and third secret coin routes.
* Sometimes when attempting to fall to the first secret coin, you can hit the thorns because you jumped too late and missed the platform which you intended to fall from.
* The lines on the thorns that function as ''secret pathways'' are actually slabs placed in line with the other thorns. The thorns are then added to cover up most of the slabs.
*This level is considered to be the easiest level to collect secret coins along with Base After Base.
*The song this level featured was a comeback from the artist after a break in music (DJVI), hence its name.

Back On Track introduces the yellow jump pad in ways of both function and potential hazard, leading to more varied jump manoeuvres.

A single ship sequence takes place from 49% to 66%.

  • The first secret coin is located at 41% and collected as the cube. After descending a short flight of platforms, jumping onto a series of connected platforms with a spike on one, jump twice up two more platforms before sliding to the ground onto a concealed gravity pad that will launch into a gravity portal and then the coin, returning to the main route.
  • The second secret coin is located at 55% and collected as the ship. Manoeuvre around the first two obstacles and fly into a gap in the third obstacle to collect the coin within.
  • The third secret coin is located at 84% and collected as the cube. After passing through three block columns and travelling along three series of connected platforms, jump twice up two more narrow platforms before sliding onto a concealed line platform below the main route. Jump over a gap onto the second line platform to collect the coin and reach a jump pad to return, immediately jumping again to clear an oncoming spike upon landing.
