'''DeCode''' is a [[Update 1.9|1.9]] Easy Demon level by [[Rek3dge]], published on 17 November 2014. It is widely considered one of the most influential Easy Demons in the game's history. Though formerly considered incredibly difficult at the time due to the novelty of the wave game-mode, it is currently considered a high-end Easy Demon to most new players. A remake, DeCodeX, was created by Rek3dge and released in [[Update 2.0]].

*'''0-10%:''' DeCode begins with a single-speed cube section containing relatively easy timings.

*'''48-76%:''' The song drops, and the player transitions into a triple-speed cube section featuring many moderately tricky timings and fakes. The level then transitions into a UFO segment with frequent gravity changes. This section is difficult because it requires many well-timed clicks. After this, the player switches back into a cube, which is much easier than the previous sections.
*'''76-84%:''' Afterwards, the player transitions into the infamous slow yet tight wave segment, containing many spikes attached to the top and bottom of the diagonal wavy corridor.
