Fexty is a 1.9/2.0 solo Extreme Demon level created and originally hack-verified by Ozpectro and legitimately verified by SkyJax on 8 October 2016. The level was originally rated for only a few weeks, becoming one of the hardest demons in the entire game before having its rating revoked due to the verification being hacked, with the level remaining unbeaten until Irish player SkyJax verified it a year later. Fexty is infamous for its extremely difficult wave part at 50%, and for being one of the hardest levels released in 1.9.

The original, now unrated version of the level on Ozpectro's account is currently a nerfed version considered around Insane Demon difficulty made shortly after the original level's unrating, while SkyJax's version is the original unnerfed version, reuploaded and rated on his account.

History

Fexty was originally hack-verified and uploaded by Ozpectro some time in July 2015, and was rated on the 3rd of August with a Demon rating. At the time of release, this level was considered one of the absolute hardest levels in Geometry Dash.

The level, due to its extreme difficulty, immediately raised suspicion; it had several parts which were considered near-impossible for any player to pull off, in particular; the triple-speed wave part at 50%, which at the time, could be said to be one of the hardest sections in any rated level. On August 7, 2015, thanks to the unrating of Sonic Wave (and the fact Bloodbath was still in the process of being verified) Fexty, for a brief period became the hardest level in Geometry Dash, thanks to there not being any levels that rivaled it in difficulty at that time, though this privilege would only be short-lived, as only five days later, on August 12th, Riot verified Bloodbath, taking the #1 spot from Fexty.

Eventually, only a few weeks after Fexty's rating, in the start of September 2015, the level was unrated as Ozpectro confessed to hacking the level, as well as the fact the level hadn't been beaten by anyone at that time, giving even more reason to unrate it.

After a short while, and the unrating of the level, Ozpectro decided to update the level to a nerfed version considered to be around Insane Demon difficulty, mostly nerfing the most difficult parts to make the level more possible, with the intention of getting the level rerated. However, despite this nerf, Ozpectro's vesion of Fexty was never rerated by RobTop, and the unnerfed version of the level would remain unbeaten.

A few months later, around mid-late 2016, an Irish player by the name of SkyJax began attempting to beat the unnerfed level on 60Hz, showing good progress, including getting the level down into two runs (51%, and 50-100%), and on October 8, 2016, after a fail at 96%, SkyJax verified the unnerfed version of Fexty, which could've been one of the hardest demons in the game had it been rated at the time. Subsequently, Fexty regained popularity thanks to it being beaten legitimately, and the level, after being unrated for a little over a year, was finally rated on February 11, 2018.

Gameplay

The level starts with a mostly straight forward cube section with a few tricky timings, which immediately leads into the drop, starting with a short ship sequence that is often considered to be quite frustrating, as the player goes down into a short wave corridor, the being led into another ship, this time in dual mode. The ship on the upper side of the screen frequently steps into blue pads, changing the gravity of the lower ship, making the part more disorientating and tricky to pass.

Afterward, comes a brief straight-fly sequence at slow speed, followed by a slow wave segment with very tight gaps. Then, as the player is jumped a fairly straight foward cube segment, similar to the first cube, they are trusted into 2x speed, and then, jumped into the infamous 3x speed wave at 50%, notorious for being extremely difficult, even to this day, and being considered to be by far the hardest part of the level.

Once the player passes the infamous wave section, they must navigate another very difficult part, a tight swing copter section at 3x speed, then going into a portal that ends the dual, leading into a 3x ball section with some orb timings, then leading the player into a cube segment, which slows them down to 0.5x speed briefly into an auto part, then quickly thrusting them back to 3x speed, as the player navigates a cube section with very similar to design to the first part of the level, with many portals and orb timings thrown in, until the player jumps into the last section of the level, a 0.5x speed ship section, consisting of a long straight-fly corridor, until the player is thrust into an auto cube with a 3x speed portal, ending the level with a text saying "GG."
