Sea (planckLength in-game, SEA on YouTube, formerly known as Sea1997) was a popular British YouTuber and former Geometry Dash player, known for his content surrounding Geometry Dash's lore and community. His videos received acclaim for their relative professionalism and depth, with some of the most successful series on his channel being The Legends Series, Maps from Hell Series, and GD Theories. Criticism was primarily targeted towards his sometimes unprofessional and pessimistic attitude, especially towards other players (highlighted by his diss track about Cyrillic and participation in one about ToshDeluxe), and the decline in the quality of his Geometry Dash-related content. While not a frequent player or level creator, Sea kept in touch with the community thanks to his numerous videos and his own Geometry Dash "news show" called G-News.
Aside from Geometry Dash, Sea also produces videos on topics such as outer space and conspiracies, most recently making an effort to push more videos unrelated to Geometry Dash.
On March 20, 2019, Sea announced that he would quit Geometry Dash and content creation surrounding it,[1] and would begin to unlist existing videos about the game and its community. Among reasons cited for this decision, Sea noted that his aforementioned content on outer space was much more rewarding personally and on the platform and that he had gained perspective by temporarily shutting himself off from the mishaps of the Geometry Dash community. However, he will still occasionally be commenting on Geometry Dash videos from time to time, such as Riot's completion of Athanatos.
Sea's playlist containing his unlisted videos about Geometry Dash currently has 51 of the 221 videos privated, with most of them caused by YouTube's 2021 unlisted videos purge, where any unlisted video that was uploaded before 2017 would automatically become privated. There is currently only one surviving video before 2017, which is the Cyclic video of the Legends Series. Many of the videos are considered lost, with either no archive on The Wayback Machine, or an archive with the actual video missing.
God Eater Videos: Around April/May 2017, knobbelboy released his second preview of God Eater. It quickly attracted 200,000 views but also prompted large footage-stealing controversy, causing tensions between Sea and Nexus as a result.[2]
Sea vs. Pavlukivan: In July 2017, Sea exposed Pavlukivan for hacking, low-quality content, level stealing, and doxxing RobTop. He dragged out his response for over 11 months, with seven videos on the matter. Pavlukivan immediately becomes a hate figure in the community, and the community questioned Sea's handling of the situation as well.[2]
Sea vs. Cyrillic: In August 2017, Cyrillic, known for making the level Silent Circles, made a face reveal, resulting in Sea making a joke about him looking like North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Cyrillic then made five videos about this drama, making Sea want a conversation with him. They talked it out, and eventually, they made up. Then about a week later, Cyrillic made another video about Sea that pushes Sea to the very limit to talk about this guy on a 20-minute video titled "The Truth About Cyrillic", where he talked about all the bad stuff Cyrillic did.[3] Cyrillic made a follow-up to this video by saying that Sea was lying about everything he said in this video. The video was photoshopped, and Sea got so mad at Cyrillic that he had to make an entire diss track about him titled Wannabe.[4]
Sea vs. WHErwin: A while after the Sea vs. Pavlukivan drama ended, WHErwin made a video trying to defend Pavlukivan and claimed that Sea misinterpreted facts. This led to Sea making a response video, saying that most of WHErwin’s arguments were arbitrary and clearing up what was factual and what was not.[5]

Below is a sample of Sea's various series and content. All videos are currently unlisted and in a playlist on his YouTube channel.
The Silent Series (Silent Club, Silent clubstep, Sailent Clubstar, Satanic Clubstep, River Styx, Silent Circles, Slaughterhouse (Old), Death Corridor, Silent Poltergeist, and Silent Circles II)
The Hell Series (by Sohn0924, including Cyclic's The Hell Zone rebirth)
The Toxin Lab series (The first Maps from Hell to make a permanent change, being voiced rather than texted (Planet Circles was voiced but made before BoJ's, which was texted.))
Other than the main series on his channel, he often uploads several miscellaneous videos on specific topics, as well as rants (or moaning as he likes to call it) towards a point of interest or infamy.
He had "moaned" about Exasperation and Jake Paul's Top 10 videos.
One of his levels, Betrayal of Fear, was canceled because of the backlash towards the level's gameplay and design.
His profile picture was taken from the Infinity Blade Trilogy.
His previous username was "Sea1997", but as he started to feel that the name did not sound professional anymore, he decided to change his alias officially to "Sea".
