}}'''Stereo Madness''' is the first level of ''[[Geometry Dash]]'' and ''[[Geometry Dash Lite]]''. It's the first level to be rated "Easy" as of [[Update 1.9]]. This level is commonly recognized as one of the easiest official levels in normal mode, the other one being [[Back on Track]].
'''Stereo Madness''' is the first level of [[Geometry Dash]] and [[Geometry Dash Lite]] and the first level with an Easy difficulty.


==Description==
==Description==
Stereo Madness introduces the cube form, featuring sequences that involve blocks and spikes with simple jumping patterns. The ship form is also introduced with sequences involving spacious manoeuvres around obstacles.
''Stereo Madness'' begins with a basic cube sequence featuring spikes and simple jumping patterns. This sequence gradually teaches the player about holding for many jumps and also when to let go after holding. However, it does allow for many unnecessary taps.


Ship sequences take place from 29% to 46% and 85% to 100%.
It continues with an introductory sequence of the ship [[Forms|form]], which gives the player wide room to fly and learn about the ship.
 
The next cube sequence is slightly harder, also introducing triple spike sets which are encountered twice.
 
The level ends after finishing with another ship sequence. This also contains the first secret passage encountered in the game, used to obtain a secret coin (see a detailed description down below).


==Secret coins==
==Secret coins==
*The first secret coin is located at 50% and collected as the cube. After the first ship sequence, jump twice up the first two columns, slide through a gap in the third column and jump again to collect the coin, or jump thrice up the first three columns and slide down under the fourth column.
*The first [[Secret Coins|secret coin]] is located immediately after the first ship sequence. There should be a sequence of four columns, the last two of which have holes in the middles of them. Jump the first three and slide through the hole on the fourth to obtain the coin, then jump back to the main route. Alternatively, you can jump just the first two, slide through the hole on the third, and jump twice to obtain the coin and get back to the normal route.
*The second secret coin is located at 74% and collected as the cube. After travelling upon four adjacent narrow platforms, jump four times up onto a line of descending blocks and jump off the second-to-last block to collect the coin, clearing a short spike upon return to the main route.
*The second secret coin is located roughly midway through the cube section with the red background. After travelling upon four adjacent thin platforms, jump four times up onto a line of descending blocks which would normally be travelled beneath. To safely collect the coin, jump off the second last block to avoid a short spike on the last block.
*The third secret coin is located at 98% and collected as the ship. After beginning the second ship sequence, pass the first pair of obstacles before entering a small crevice with a missing block by the second ceiling obstacle. The background will turn red, and the grid will shift to reveal a narrow alternate passage with closely contained spikes. Passing through it will lead to the third coin at the level's end.
*The third secret coin is oddly situated above the main passage during the final ship sequence. In this final sequence, after avoiding the first roof obstacle, enter a small crevice just before the second roof obstacle. This will be identifiable because it will have large, faded, fake spikes, as opposed to the rows of small, black, real spikes found along the rest of the passage. The screen will shift and turn red to reveal a narrow upper section with very close-contained spikes. There's a safe break about three quarters of the way through, before one last spike section, followed by clearance to the third coin and an alternate finish.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Stereo Madness is playable on the official [https://www.geometrydash.com Geometry Dash website] as a demo level. Secret coins are absent, with the first and third secret coin routes removed, thus more closely resembling the original version of Stereo Madness before [[Update 1.6]].
*Prior to [[Update 1.9]], the third coin was much more difficult to obtain due to the fact that the passage contained spiked on both sides and forced the player to fly in between.
*Stereo Madness was the only level of the first nine levels to have its difficulty retained while the others were downgraded in [[Update 1.9]].
* The third coin's odd location was due to [[Update 1.6]] and its introduction to secret coins, resulting in pre-1.6 level modifications.
*Stereo Madness is the only level not to contain jump pads, jump rings or manipulation portals, and also the only level to introduce multiple forms.
* Stereo Madness is the only level not to contain any manipulation [[portals]] in-level, even in the secret coin passages.
*The third secret coin route is particularly unique:
* Reaching the end of the third secret coin passage is the only instance where the player can divert from the main passage and end somewhere different.
**Reaching its end is the only instance of being able to diverge from the main route and end somewhere different.
*Completing the level takes 1:29.
**It reveals small spikes and pulsating star decorations, which are formally introduced in [[Clutterfunk]] and [[xStep]], respectively.
*Stereo Madness is currently ForeverBound's only song used in a main level of ''Geometry Dash''.
**It was modified and made easier in Update 1.9, having five overhead small spikes that were directly above more small spikes removed and replaced with three overhead short spikes slightly earlier.
*This level has the latest secret coin location, at around 98%.
*Stereo Madness gives programmed text instructions to 'Tap to jump over the spikes' if colliding twice with the first spike in the level.
*Out of the first 9 levels, Stereo Madness is the only level that didn't change its difficulty in [[Update 1.9]].
*Stereo Madness takes 89 seconds to complete and requires a minimum of 77 jumps.
*This is the only level out of all official levels that introduces two types of form portals: ship and cube.
**Uses the first secret coin route.
