Controversy

Backbeat Revenge faced heavy backlash due to its seizure-inducing, flashy visuals. At release, Darwin did not provide a seizure warning at the beginning of the level. Many critics reviled the level as unsightreadable, even for those who were not epileptic, such as Moderator Incidius:

“
Please add an option to reduce flashiness [...] I have a headache now. Thanks

Despite some users protesting that those who were seizure-prone should not play Geometry Dash, Darwin updated the level to include a warning at the beginning. However, the warning was not present on the Event Level copy due to it being update-locked.

The backlash left a long-lasting impact, as Darwin included a seizure warning in the description of his showcases for both M A N I A and TERMINA (only the latter has a warning within the level itself), stating he'd 'learnt [his] lesson'.
