History

EricVanWilderman has had a long history of Geometry Dash. Starting in late 1.9 he started to play Geometry Dash, his first video being about completing Stereo Madness, Back on Track, and Polargeist.[1] After this he started to complete all the regular title screen levels, ending on Theory of Everything 2 on February 5, 2015.[2] After completing remix's of the title levels, he started to play demons such as Problematic but wasn't considered a top Geometry Dash player. As his channel grew he attempted harder demons like Toxin Lab 2 and The Robotic Rush, and his popularity as a Geometry Dash player rose as well. On April 11, 2017, he completed Old Cataclysm by Gboy and put himself on the map as a serious player. Only a month later he then completed New Cataclysm by Ggb0y, and was briefly on the Top 50 Demons List.[3] Now players started to consider him as a serious player. In September of 2017, he finally completed Ice Carbon Diablo X and secured his 3rd extreme demon. Players like Riot, AeonAir, and TrusTa started to take notice of his rapid rise and collaborated with him in videos. He progressed again from 2.0 to 2.1 and continued to improve, despite the game's rapid decline. In late 2018, he started a series called The Twelve Demons of Christmas and played 12 demons every day. He beat his 4th extreme Demon, Quest for Perfection on December 26, 2018,[4] and finally secured his status as a Legendary Geometry Dash player.

Equipment

Eric Van Wilderman used a PS4 Controller up to June 3, 2018,[5] and beat his 1st 2nd and 3rd extreme demon using the controller. Considering his rapid rise in skill, it's hard to imagine him playing with a controller; however, he did play with it through 1.9, 2.0 and early/mid 2.1. He switched to the mouse on June 3, 2018, and is now comfortable with it.
