demon park is a 1.1/1.2 solo Easy Demon created, verified and published by M2coL (formerly MidM2coL) on 17 October 2013. This level is the first ever Demon level, inspiring the addition of the Demon rating in Update 1.3 and is now considered one of the easiest. It is the first level in Demon Pack 1. demon park features rudimentary block designs with spikes layered inside blocks that point in the direction the player must go.

Gameplay

• 0-28%: The level begins with a long and tricky normal-speed cube section. The player must jump over spikes and onto pillars and contend with constant gravity changes and blind jumps.
• 28-38%: Next comes a confusing mirrored ship sequence. This part is notable for featuring several different paths that sometimes crossover with each other. The player must choose which path to go and stick with it while trying not to get distracted by the other paths.
• 38-57%: Afterwards, there is another cube section. This section is as tricky as the previous one and requires some basic memory skills to clear. The player must jump over spikes and a cactus-like structure with the help of orbs and jump across pillars. Throughout this area, the player must contend with a few gravity changes. The player enters a blue mirror portal near the end as the next part begins.
• 57-71%: Next is a ball segment that begins with simple timings, then transitions into a cube section that heavily uses yellow orbs in the floor and ceiling and some gravity changes. The player must carefully use these orbs to jump over spikes.
• 71-84%: Next is a mirrored anti-gravity ship sequence. The player must fly around several large spikes and structures. Near the end, hit the first two yellow pads but not the third one to clear the area. Following this is a short and easy ball segment with a different background, and the player must dodge some obstacles using yellow orbs.
• 84-100%: The player then transitions into a difficult cube section with a regular background. First, the player must jump over numerous small obstacles. Afterwards, everything is simple. The background changes and the player must make a few more simple jumps. The final section begins with a mirrored ball segment featuring a different background. The gameplay becomes simple here, only lasting two seconds. Finally, the level ends.

Trivia

• The level's password is 961031.
• The level contains 4,010 objects.
• The level is 1m 36s in length.
• The level was ranked #80 in GDToday's 100 Greatest Levels of All Time list.
• The level was rated on 22 November 2013.
  • It is one of the first five Demons rated simultaneously.
• It is the oldest-rated Easy Demon in the game.
• demon mixed reuses a section of this level.
• Sea made a GD Theory video about what would have happened if this level did not exist and believed the Demon rating might not exist along with other famous levels such as Cataclysm. During the level's initial release, demon park was considered an Insane-difficulty level (not rated at the time). Sea probably believed the Demon rating would not exist if not for demon park because it most likely inspired RobTop to create the Demon rating.
• Because demon park was the first rated Demon, it was also the hardest level in Geometry Dash when it was rated, and technically, the first former Top 1 Demon in the game's history.
  • However, worth mentioning that the origin of the Demon List started in 2014 by the player loogiah, meaning all levels created in 2013 were not Top 1 for the simple reason of the list not existing at the time, which determined the hardest levels in the game.
    • In addition, because this level, along with To the Grave and Extreme Park (two levels considered harder), being rated all together, it probably means that this level would not have been Top 1 if a list of the hardest levels would have been present at the time.
