'''DeCode''' is a [[Update 1.9|1.9]] Easy Demon level by [[Rek3dge]], published on 17 November 2014. It is widely considered one of the most influential Easy Demons in the game's history. Though formerly considered incredibly difficult at the time due to the novelty of the wave game-mode, it is currently considered a high-end Easy Demon to most new players. A remake, DeCodeX, was created by Rek3dge and released in [[Update 2.0]].

==Description==
{{Infobox Level
*'''0-10%:''' DeCode begins with a single-speed cube section containing relatively easy timings.
