Codependence is a 2.1 Extreme Demon mega-collaboration level created by TCTeam, originally verified by Kapinapi and ViralDl and verified solo by Pukklez on 4 June 2023. It is a two-player level in which each icon completes the equivalent of an Insane to Extreme Demon. Codependence placed at #8 on the Demonlist, above Firework and below Sakupen Circles, becoming the hardest two-player level in Geometry Dash.

History

With freedom granted by TCTeam, Kapinapi and ViralDL applied some nerfs before the level's verification to make it more playable.

Many people initially thought the level was impossible to beat by a single player. In April 2022, a player named Pukklez began to attempt a solo verification of Codependence. On 4 June 2023, almost three years after Codependence's initial verification, the level was verified solo by Pukklez after 165,000 attempts. Pukklez had used the W and Up Arrow keys for two-player control, earlier mentioned.
