'''Michael Reisner''' (9 December 1996 – 10 March 2021), known in [[Geometry Dash]] as '''Michigun''', was an Austrian player. Recognised as one of the game's fastest star-grinders, he amassed 61,639 stars, 12,502 user coins, 16,661 diamonds, 1,000 Demons, and 17 creator points. Michigun also created numerous levels inspired by temples from [[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda|''The Legend of Zelda'']] series.


'''[[Michigun]]''' was a popular skilled Austrian '''''mobile''''' player in Geometry Dash. He currently has over 60,000 stars, and is still in the top 10, and 1000 demons beaten - only being outmatched by Pasiblitz, [[Shaggy23]], xMiguel007, DENM, and Superchat. He has created levels that are Legend of Zelda based and temple themed. His nicknames are "''Michingu," ''"''Machine Gun" ''and "''Michigan"'. ''He is also well known for liking triple spikes, and was one of the fastest star-grinders in the game.
==History==
Michigun rose to fame in late 2015 when he secured the #1 rank on the [[Leaderboards|Top 100]], surpassing players like zNymo98. However, by April 2017, Shaggy23 surpassed him, and later, in June, [[Noctalium]] did. By the end of 2017, Michigun was no longer competitive at the top of the leaderboard.


He had achieved 1st on the leaderboards around late 2015 after beating zNymo98 and 3xotiC, who left around October 2015 (with strong evidence that 3xotiC was hacking to beat levels). On April 2017, Michigun was defeated by Shaggy23. In June 2017 he was defeated by xMiguel007 and [[NoctaFly|Noctalium]], and is now ranked 4th on the leaderboard. Towards the end of 2017, and in early 2018, he was passed by multiple other players including Cool Dash, Franchet, and Kaernk, leading to him being kicked to 7th place.
On 8 December 2017, Michigun posted a cryptic status message: 'game over. I wish you all the best. ;)', which he later confirmed was his announcement of retirement from the game.


On December 8th, 2017, Michigun posted a status message, reading, "game over. I wish you all the best. ;)" which he later clarified to be making his quitting of the game official.
Michigun passed away on 10 March 2021. His cause of death was not disclosed, and it was announced by [[Viprin]] on 30 March 2021, following a request from Michigun's family to delay the public announcement.

==Levels==
* '''''Demon Levels'''''
Michigun created a variety of levels, ranging from Easy to Insane Demon difficulty, many inspired by ''The Legend of Zelda'' series.
** Forest Temple: his first 2.0 demon level, uses the song Haunted Woods by Waterflame, a forest-themed level.
** Lava Temple (collab with Gboy): a lava-themed demon level.
** Desert Temple (created by XLetricVenom and The Bil): a desert-themed demon, was not made by him but, the original creators asked him to verify it.
** Fire Temple: his second demon level, a fire-themed level.
** Water Temple: One of his first demon level in the temple series, a water-themed level.
** Shadow Temple: uses Clubstep as its song, a shadow-themed level.
* '''''Hard Levels'''''
*** The Triple Trial: a medium-length level, the level is filled with triple spikes and uses the song, Flawless Wings of Yatagarasu by GLS, his hard level.
***The real Flappy Bird: a Flappy Bird-themed level. It uses the song Jumper by Waterflame.
* '''''Parts in Collabs'''''
** Michigun has a part in [[Bloodbath]], critically acclaimed as one of the hardest parts of Bloodbath. The part uses the style he uses for every single temple level, which makes one of his parts very unique. Link: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Gcwrt98SsU Click Here]
** He also has a part in [[Yatagarasu]], which also uses his ordinary temple style. During the verification process, TrusTa struggled with this part a lot. He did complete it on his YouTube channel: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0lOwUTh6XU Click Here]
** He also participated in the [[Artificial Ascent]] collaboration, creating a short part which has been shown on his YouTube channel. Link: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFzRy1C9I6c Click Here].


== Trivia ==
;Easy levels
* Because of Michigun's love for triple spikes, many levels tend to hide the statement "Every level needs a triple" or "For Michigun" behind a set of triple spikes as an Easter egg, shown in levels such as [[Acceleration]] or [[VeritY]].
*Double Triple Trial (Star-rated) - A sequel to his other level, The Triple Trial. This level exclusively features 25 sextuple-spike jumps, during which the player travels at quadruple speed. It is Short in length. The level was the last unrated level on his account to be rated; it was rated after his passing, likely as a tribute.
* Because of his amount of stars, he has been banned from the leaderboards a lot of times in the past. A while ago, he was banned after earning exactly 35,000 stars and 5555 user coins.
 
* As of June 2017, Michigun stopped refreshing his profile, signaling his quitting of star grinding.
;Hard levels
* One of his posts stated that if he would get 100,000 Subscribers on Youtube, he would reveal his face, which he then did. This post was his most recent post for a long time gaining over 170,000 likes.
*The real Flappy Bird (Star-rated) - His first created level. It was inspired by the game [[Wikipedia:Flappy Bird|''Flappy Bird'']].
* Michigun made his quitting of the game official by posting, "game over. i wish you all the best. ;)" in December 2017.
