Colon (also known as GD Colon) is a Canadian player, level creator, and YouTuber. He is well known for uploading unique non-level videos, playing copies of Geometry Dash on several platforms, creating (usually 1.0-style) levels revolving around an original concept, and analysing features within the game. His current hardest Demon is Magma Bound, beaten on 2 February 2026.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZ0ZX9iTeuc</ref>

Colon also has five other accounts: Colon2ndAccount, where he posts previews, RobsVault, where he rips RobTop's levels directly from the game to allow copying and using them, RobsBasement, where he ports levels from GD rip-offs and copies, tubular9, a joke account, and theworldmachine, a bot that posted randomly-generated levels from 2019-2021.

[edit | edit source]
  • Colon has over 945,000 subscribers on his YouTube channel.
  • Colon was the 19th guest of The Dasher Podcast.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDZaWX9keYc</ref>
  • Colon's YouTube channel rose in fame after uploading 'What NOT to put in your custom level', a poorly made Windows Movie Maker video with over 1.8 million views. It remained his most popular video for several years until it was beaten by 'Making Terrible Geometry Dash Ads' in 2019.
    • Colon released a complete remake of this video on 18 December 2017. However, it had poor quality due to an overlooked rendering error.
      • The video title had been changed to 'really old bad video' for a long time, but it was changed to 'Geometry Dash - What NOT to put in your Level [OLD]'.
      • It was later changed to '[OLD VIDEO, DO NOT WATCH] Geometry Dash - What NOT to put in your level'.
      • It was then changed again and currently is called '[OLD/BAD VIDEO] Geometry Dash- What NOT to put in your Level'.
        • A higher-quality reupload was released on 4 September 2018, and after this version had received enough views, the original was unlisted on 19 January 2019.
  • Upon reaching 100,000 subscribers, Colon posted a face reveal. The video was one hour long and covered the entire history of his channel.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmOdgNWFsUs</ref>
  • Colon edits his videos with PowerDirector.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2uE051de0U</ref>

  • Colon voiced a green cube in rafer's Prelude animation for the Geometry Dash 2.1 Awards and FUNHOUSE animation.

  • A voice recording of Colon reading some replies to an AskReddit-styled post on r/geometrydash was uploaded to Newgrounds as CRAZY GEOMETRY DASH STORIES #shorts #gd R/GEOMETRYDASH #geometry dash #2.2 #gdcolon. This audio is used in the rated level Shorts by Kanati.
  • Colon's rant video about Geometry Dash Subzero's coins quickly prompted RobTop to change almost all the coins in a new update.
  • Colon is known to dislike the second spider part in Dash, and his video about it created many memes that extended well beyond the reach of the game.<ref>https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/dash-spider-this-isnt-sightreadable</ref>
    • Other things that Colon dislikes are wall coins (and the secret coins that involve randomly falling), the Poison Gauntlet level Generation Retro, and formerly the old wrong Pusab font (last mentioned in his video 'Old Geometry Dash Fangames' explaining that he is past this now).

    • On 14 September 2026, Colon, along with 42 other moderators, got demoted due to RobTop making changes to the game's moderation system.
