The Golden

The Golden is a 2.1 Extreme Demon created by Bo and verified by nSwish. It is supposed to be a remake of El Dorado. It has a green-theme and the difficulty is mostly based on timings and fast-paced waves. The difficulty was previously set to surpass Tartarus but has since been nerfed by nSwish on Bo's request. nSwish verified the level on April 18, 2020. It is currently #1 on the Official Geometry Dash Demonlist, above Tartarus (#2).

Gameplay

• 0% - 13% (El3ctr0 + Gooseam) - The level starts off with a UFO segment with pixel-perfect timings and the screen is mostly dark. After a little bit, the player turns into a ball and the timings continue as the player must press orbs precisely. After this, there is a brief UFO section with more timings.
• 14% - 27% (Gemmi + Woomy) - Next, the colors get a little more green, and the player turns into a ship. This ship has extremely tight spaces and the ship randomly switches gravity. Following the ship is a brief block section where half of the player's vision is blocked by a big black glow pillar. Ending this part is a title screen of the level.
• 28% - 50% (El3ctr0) - The part starts with a ridiculous wave section with almost impossible timings at high speeds. Also, there are heaps of anti-gravity portals scattered throughout this section. On top of that, the size of the wave changes occasionally. After a while, the player turns into a UFO with extreme timings. Then, the player turns back to a wave with, once again, insane timings.
• 50% - 72% (E. O. T. S.) - Then, the player turns into a ship, but the ship has many teleportation portals and anti-gravity portals and very difficult timings. Next, there's a brief wave section as the wave turns into a block, which the block presses three very difficult green orbs. Afterward, there's a dual wave with absolutely ridiculous spamming that is nearly impossible. Next is a very short wave, and then a ball section to end off this part.
• 72% - 86% (Bo) - This part starts off with a robot section where the player must spam to get through the timings, but occasionally there are some less spammy places. Next is a UFO segment that is also pretty spammy, but mostly filled with timings. Following this is a short spider section with difficult timings.
• 86% - 100% (Eridani) - Following the spider section is a slow ship part with very tight spaces to fly through. In this ship section are a lot of anti-gravity portals and size portals being thrown at the player. After a little bit, a very spammy ball appears, with a lot of timings. The same thing with the UFO section right after. After the UFO passes through a very tight space, the title of the level comes up and the level is finished.
