'''WHAT''' is a 2.1 Hard 5* level created and published by [[Spu7Nix]] and verified by [[AeonAir]].<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gfn5pZeCbRs</ref> The level is a spiritual successor to [[HOW]], featuring more elaborate 3D effects produced with external programming.
'''WHAT''' is a 2.1 Hard in the 3rd Dimenson published by Spu7nix.  


== Description ==
==Description==
* '''0-10%:''' The level begins with the player appearing as an actual grey cube, and then a section containing multiple three-dimensional objects appears. This part is tricky to sight-read because some objects are platforms while some are not. There are indicators for when to jump, but they are hard to see and disappear as quickly as they appear. Memory may be required in this part. In the last segment, the player must jump onto a yellow pad after switching gravity between two blue pads. When launching from the yellow pad, the level will show the player turning into a 3D wave and transitioning into a representation of a third-person perspective.
*'''0-10% 3D Cube Part:''' The player begins as a 3D cube that must perform some jumps that may seem difficult due to the 3D effect. To complete the first section, the cube passes through two blue pads and one yellow pad (which appear as three cubes of those colors) before finally transforming into a Wave.
* '''10-29%:''' Now, as a wave, similar to the one in HOW, the player must travel through a circular tunnel-like structure with different coloured L-shapes while avoiding numerous cubes of obstacles. The final obstacle consists of two hollow shapes. When going through that obstacle, the level will show the obstacle facing forward, then zooming far out, transitioning into the next part
*'''10-29% 3D Wave Part:''' The player, now transformed into a Wave, must pass through many cubes of blue, purple, and yellow respectively, taking care not to get confused by the 3D effect, to finally pass through 2 structures with a hole in the center and enter the ship.
* '''29-48%:''' The game mode switches to a very unique-looking ship that has blue fire coming out of it (similar to how the engine is in the real ''Geometry Dash'' ship), and the player must manoeuvre between dodecahedrons and tesseracts of different colours. Then, the player enters a transition, with their ship control taken away. The screen fades to white, with some minor effects.
*'''29-47% 3D Ship Part:''' Now the player controls a spaceship that must avoid colored cubes and other geometric shapes. The final part of the 3D spaceship section involves the ship automatically moving in a straight line toward the center of the screen as it fades to white.
* '''48-66%:''' Once the screen has gone white, the white 'wall' covering the screen breaks into cubes, revealing a magenta background with more purple-ish cubes getting created. As the level's title appears on screen letter-by-letter in tune with the piano in the song, the background first pulses to an orangey red when 'W' appears on screen, then it pulses to a more yellow colour for the 'H', then green when the 'A' appears, and then teal (similar to the one used for the background of the first part of Time Machine) when the words 'WHAT' are finished. During all this, the 3D cubes move out, and there is a faded, white outline of the fourth default cube in the game. As the icon goes from a white outline to the normal cube coloured yellow and blue (the colours of it on the ''Geometry Dash'' app icon for all devices), the font of the 'WHAT' text constantly changes, and the background of the part, now black, splits in half to reveal the default background and ground, along with the gameplay for the next part (at least in the low detail version).
*'''47-100% Final Part:''' To finish this 3D level, after the screen goes white, it will be destroyed, and then the word "WHAT" (the level's name) will appear. After that, you will transform into the cube from the Gometry Dash icon. A simple layout will appear, and when you jump, many background levels will appear. After that, the cube will jump onto a yellow pad, and the game will cycle through different versions. When the cube falls, the background will transform into 3D cubes, and the cube will become famous players from the community.
* '''66-80%:'''  This part is the only one where the gameplay changes if the low-detail mode is enabled and only requires a single input. After clicking, the screen cuts between multiple levels in sync with the music as the cube jumps in slow motion. The levels in order are:

* '''80-100%:''' Afterwards, the player jumps through an animation showcasing distinct styles and dimensions of the editor, followed by a short staircase switching the creating style and cube with every step downwards. The icons are:
** Logo-styled icon
** The default GD player icon
** [[FunnyGame]]
** TBA
** [[Serponge]]
** [[Viprin]]
** [[Michigun]]
** Back to the logo-styled icon
* The end screen follows, showing a minimalist image of the ''Geometry Dash'' logo with '2.1' and a heart below, indicating Spu7Nix's farewell to the 2.1 update. The '2.1' text briefly changes to '2.2' for a split second to indicate the upcoming update. The level ends with Spu7Nix's logo.

==Trivia==
* WHAT formerly held the record for the most objects in any rated level in the game at the time.
*This level is a sequel to the level "How", by the same creator (Spu7nix).
** Upon release, WHAT contained 655,350 objects, now reduced to 592,485.
** This record was beaten by a level titled STUDIOPOLIS ZONE, which contains 792,707 objects.
*** This record was beaten again by an Extreme Demon platformer mega-collaboration level by TMco titled Dead Of Night, containing 950,460 objects.
* WHAT received an honourable mention in GDToday's 100 Greatest Levels of All Time list. It was not featured in the Top 100 because it was unrated then.
* WHAT was nominated for and achieved ''Best Hard Level'' in the [[The Geometry Dash Awards|''Geometry Dash'' 2023 Awards]].
* The song for WHAT is also in the Japanese rhythm game ''Arcaea''.
* Before Update 2.2, the high number of objects and triggers in WHAT would cause the game to crash on most devices. On Windows, playing the level requires a patch that allows the application to access 4GB of virtual memory. The required patch can be used on any 32-bit application and can be found [https://ntcore.com/?page_id=371 here].<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xu1wRfUHtKg</ref> Due to 2.2's optimisation and ''Geometry Dash'' now being a 64-bit application, the level would now be able to run without crashing on most devices.
** Additionally, WHAT also temporarily crashed the servers after release before the servers returned to normal. RobTop did not know the servers were down at this time.
*** A ''Geometry Dash'' YouTuber made a 'joke' video on how Spu7Nix nearly killed the game itself, saying it was because of WHAT.
* The low-detail mode version of WHAT stylises it after 1.6-1.8 levels.
** The same style shows up in the non-LDM mode after the cutscene.
* The cube, wave, and ship parts mimic game modes with collision blocks and move triggers, making the ship feel heavier at 30%.
* WHAT features a unique version of the cYsmix's original song specifically created for Spu7Nix.
* Despite being used to crash the game, WHAT still got an Epic rating, unlike HOW.
* It is unknown if WHAT is a sequel to HOW.
