Update 1.9
The 1.9 Update is a future update to Geometry Dash. It will be out for the Android, Windows Phone, Amazon Devices, and iOS. This update will come out in early October. It will also release Blast Processing and likely Eternity.
Prior to the release of the 1.8 update, Robert Topala said in a conversation at Touch Arcade Forums:
"I have a lot of ideas for update 1.9 that could be huge for the game, but more on that after I release 1.8... muahaha"
Previews
On August 13, 2014, Topala posted his first sneak preview image, showing five icons wearing different-colored headphones. It was revealed in a future hint image that it represented the custom music option.
On August 26, 2014, Topala created another image depicting three-dimensional blocks, arousing much excitement among Geometry Dash players. He continued with the idea on August 28, posting a picture on Facebook about what could be built using the blocks.
On September 6, 2014, another image was posted through Topala's social media accounts featuring several different new map components that would be used in future levels of Geometry Dash. This included two new icons, gear-like obstacles, and various different unknown types of blocks. The most prominent feature was a new thick blue portal that would likely result in another game mode being introduced. It was also released to the public that Topala would release the game to Steam, a popular internet-based social media platform.
On September 14, 2014, RobTop released an image on Facebook. It shows a blast, a processor, a book, an infinity symbol, and '2'. An educated guess has been given that the two next songs could possibly be Blast Processing by Waterflame and Eternity by DJVI, with the number 2 indicating the addition of two levels, one of which hinted to be a Demon level, following similar lines to Update 1.6. Others suggest that the last three icons mean that the second level will be Theory of Everything 2 by DJ Nate.
On September 21, 2014, another image was posted through Facebook and Twitter for the new "Custom Music" feature that will allow players to include music from Newgrounds in their custom levels. The image includes 10 icons with headphones at the bottom. It was the first picture to indicate that the update was "coming soon" rather than "work in progress." Upon the release of the image, Topala said that a sneak peek video for the next levels would be coming soon.
On September 28, 2014, Topala officially released the sneak peek video. The new, blue portal changed the icon to a triangular ball-like object. It featured the level Blast Processing.
Trivia
- Before the new mode, a level with similar mechanics (or almost the same) was published by Darnoc.The level name is Wave Wave and it includes an UFO and the screen is full of gravity rings,that the player taps to change gravity to avoid the spiked walls.Rated Insane.
