'''CuLuC''' is an American level creator, widely known for his unique and detailed realistic-style designs. He has participated in numerous Extreme Demon collaborations, such as Down Bass Incarnation, [[Keres]], [[Cosmic Cyclone]], Misanthrope, [[Edge of Destiny]], Emerald Realm, etc. He has also updated the decoration in [[Aerial Gleam]].

==History==
CuLuC started playing [[Geometry Dash]] late in [[Update 1.9]] after his friend challenged him to beat RobTop levels. On 29 April 2017, CuLuC made his YouTube channel. At the time, CuLuC was a player and creator. He uploaded his first video, 'CuLuC Fails on Easy Level 1'.

In the same year, he uploaded some of his levels. He was trying to experiment with the background, block combinations and triggers. At this time, CuLuC had not yet received recognition. He uploaded many videos of the 'CuLuC Fails on Easy Level' series and his levels during this time.

On 6 October 2017, he uploaded a preview of his level for a Doom Gauntlet CC entry. On 25 February 2018, he uploaded his part on INFINITY. At this time, he was improving his style on every level. On 31 March 2018, he uploaded the preview of his upcoming solo [[Nine Circles Levels|Nine Circles level]], Chaotix Wave. After uploading the preview, his YouTube channel quickly amassed over 1,000 subscribers. Many people later noticed and attended him, like GD Iris, ItsHybrid or Zynvire. He uploaded more of his parts in many famous Extreme Demons, like [[Silent Circles (Zynvire)|Silent Circles]] by Zynvire, Deimos by GDSkele, Jawbreaker VIP, Abyssal Extinction, Keres, and more.

In December 2020, he finally acquired a PC, and with it, he could start using scale hacks, optimise his parts, and access many features that mobile does not have. He later built his second part of Cosmic Cyclone. At this point, he became more active in APTeam. On 23 December 2020, he showed his part in The Apocalyptic Trilogy.

Starting in 2021, he uploaded a video showcasing his part in every major collaboration. On 17 February 2021, Zimnyte uploaded the first preview video of Edge of Destiny, featuring CuLuC's part. Many people who reacted to CuLuC's part said it was very detailed. From here, CuLuC became many people's favourite creator in the game. His channel's subscriber count and views quickly rose, and he continued to be assigned parts for even more levels. A week later, he upgraded his part in Cosmic Cyclone. On 3 April 2021, he uploaded another part in The Apocalyptic Trilogy.

In June 2021, two months later, he optimised his part in Cosmic Cyclone. A day later, he uploaded his part in Black Flag. Once again, many people were impressed by his style. CuLuC became recognised, and many highly famous names noticed and attended him, like [[TrusTa]]. Two days later, he reached his peak in popularity with his part in Down Bass Incarnation. After the video reached 300,000 views, many top players and famous creators praised him, including [[EricVanWilderman]] and [[Mulpan]]. [[EndLevel]] (a former hacker and now well-known creator) later noticed and attended to him, inviting CuLuC to improve and optimise Aerial Gleam. On 14 August 2021, EndLevel uploaded an official Aerial Gleam update.

In October 2021, CuLuC uploaded a video titled 'Coming Soon', in which there is a clue that he is now doing a duo collaboration with [[XG]], with the level Absolute Magnitude (later, XG uploaded a trailer on the same day). Many people stated Absolute Magnitude would be the best crossover collaboration since XG and CuLuC are widely considered the game's best designers.

On 29 October 2022, CuLuC uploaded a video of his part in the mega-collaboration level Emerald Realm, hosted by CastriX. The video quickly garnered many views, and many people commented on how realistic and mind-blowing his decorations were. Even RobTop commented on the level, saying, 'Amazing Work'.
