'''Conrad Hellman''', better known as '''Darnoc''' ('''TheRealDarnoc''' in-game), is a former American player and one of the first creators in [[Geometry Dash]], who created the first-rated level. He had one of the most famous level styles, which led many people to try to copy it. Many of his levels, especially his early ones, appear in [[Map Packs]].


Darnoc had two other accounts; one was 'darnoc2', an unregistered account on his school iPad, where he also made many levels. Unfortunately, Darnoc lost that account when everyone at his school had to delete non-school-related games. He also had an unregistered [[wikipedia:Bluestacks|Bluestacks]] account, 'DarnocBlue'.

He quit the game in October of 2015, but not before making the level "Okiba Crackdown 3". He was also inactive on his YouTube account. On October 15, 2016, he became active by posting a video of him playing a VR game. In the description, he says, "Sorry for no Geometry Dash videos kids".


Out of nowhere, he returned to Geometry Dash on 1 February 2017, with the level Blacklights, a detailed [[Update 2.1|2.1]] level that also received an Epic rating. Even RobTop was shocked, as he said in the comment section of Blacklights, 'He is alive?... :o'. Many other creators were shocked by his comeback, such as [[Partition]], [[Serponge]], [[Viprin]], etc. He also made a level called Bonus Level, but he got bored with it and has not uploaded a level since. He uploaded his last Geometry Dash video on 9 February 2017.
Then, out of nowhere, he made a comeback to GD on February 1st, 2017 with the level "Blacklights", a beautiful 2.1 level which also got an epic feature. Even RobTop was shocked, as he said in the comment section of Blacklights, "He is alive?... :o." Many other creators were shocked with his comeback, such as [[Partition]], [[Serponge]], [[ViPriN]], etc. He also made a level named Bonus Level, but he got bored of that level, and hasn't uploaded a level since. His last ''Geometry Dash'' video was uploaded on February 9, 2017.


When asked by player Krisz whether or not he would return to Geometry Dash, Darnoc stated that he would likely not, although he wants to play the new [[Update 2.2|2.2]] level if the update is released.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiD4n9swz3A</ref>

At the beginning of 2024, Darnoc temporarily returned to Geometry Dash and made a few posts on his account, sharing his thoughts on Update 2.2.
== Achievements ==
Darnoc inspired RobTop to create the UFO game mode with the test level "gravity field". The gameplay is a huge field of jump orbs, with obstacles in the forms of cubes. The gravity and obstacles also change in the middle of the level, but change back to normal at the end.


==Achievements==
Another of Darnoc's achievements was creating the level "Wave Wave", which is similar to the arcade game ''Wave Wave'' and also inspired RobTop to create the Wave game mode. The level has a UFO with constant gravity switches.

Revision as of 11:53, 11 October 2026

Template:Infobox Player Darnoc (TheRealDarnoc in-game, Darnoc703 on YouTube) was one of the first players and level creators in Geometry Dash, who created the first rated level. He had one of the most famous level styles, which resulted in a lot of people trying to copy his style. Many of his levels, especially his earlier ones, are featured in Map Packs.

Darnoc had two other accounts, one of which was "darnoc2", an unregistered account on his school iPad where he also made many levels. Unfortunately, Darnoc lost the account when everyone at his school had to delete games unrelated to school. He also had a Bluestacks account named "DarnocBlue", which is unregistered as well.

History

Darnoc started playing Geometry Dash in 2013, in version 1.0.

He quit the game in October of 2015, but not before making the level "Okiba Crackdown 3". He was also inactive on his YouTube account. On October 15, 2016, he became active by posting a video of him playing a VR game. In the description, he says, "Sorry for no Geometry Dash videos kids".

Then, out of nowhere, he made a comeback to GD on February 1st, 2017 with the level "Blacklights", a beautiful 2.1 level which also got an epic feature. Even RobTop was shocked, as he said in the comment section of Blacklights, "He is alive?... :o." Many other creators were shocked with his comeback, such as Partition, Serponge, ViPriN, etc. He also made a level named Bonus Level, but he got bored of that level, and hasn't uploaded a level since. His last Geometry Dash video was uploaded on February 9, 2017.

When asked by player Krisz whether or not he would return to Geometry Dash, he stated that he likely won't, although he wants to play the new 2.2 level if the update is released.[1]

Darnoc continues to upload videos of various rhythm games on his YouTube channel, such as Spin Rhythm XD and Synth Riders.

Achievements

Darnoc inspired RobTop to create the UFO game mode with the test level "gravity field". The gameplay is a huge field of jump orbs, with obstacles in the forms of cubes. The gravity and obstacles also change in the middle of the level, but change back to normal at the end.

Another of Darnoc's achievements was creating the level "Wave Wave", which is similar to the arcade game Wave Wave and also inspired RobTop to create the Wave game mode. The level has a UFO with constant gravity switches.
